Mail Order Boyfriend Manga

I’m not sure what to think of this. Again, walking through the bookstore in the manga section and I see the title “Absolute Boyfriend.” It definitely merited picking up and examining. They didn’t have this cover in the bookstore; I found it online. Clearly it’s a shojo manga, and one that I normally would want to criticize and poke fun at. However, upon reading the summary via Wikipedia–I’m ashamed to say I kinda want to read it.  I’ll get back to you guys on this.

Summary (from Wikipedia):  Riiko Izawa has never had a boyfriend and she has been rejected by every boy she has ever had a crush on. When she returns a lost cell phone to an oddly dressed salesman, she mentions wanting a boyfriend so to thank her, he directs her to his company’s website. When she visits the site, Riiko finds it’s a site to create your own lover. Thinking its a game, she customizes and accidentally orders one. The next day, her new lover arrives. Following the instruction manual, she kisses him to wake him up and configure him to be in love with only her. She names him “Night.” Three days later, she is shocked to learn that she only had him for a free trial. The salesman, Gaku Namikiri, tells her that she must now pay 100,000,000 yen for Night, or they will waive the fee if she helps them to collect data about how women think and feel to help perfect future models.
