The Law Of Ueki Synopsis: Ueki is an average junior high student who has the power to change trash into trees. This power was granted to him by Mr. K so that Ueki can participate in the "Battle of the Supernatural Powers." If Ueki wins, Mr. K becomes the new King of the Celestial World while Ueki will receive the "Talent of Blank", allowing him to choose whatever talent he desires. However, the battle will not be easy since he will have to face many unsavory opponents who want the "Talent of Blank" for their own selfish reasons. Ueki will undergo many trials and sacrifices in order to win the battle and prevent the "Talent of Blank" from falling into the wrong hands.

Evil, evil dudes and WTF!? Jun 16, 2008 reviewed by Stah-witch-knee
I love the Japanese sense of humor. It has a sense of randomness which really appeals to my own sense of humor. I like reading a manga and saying, What the crap! after. The Law of Ueki did this for me. The whole concept is ridiculous, if you sit down and think about it. A bunch of individuals get together to choose a junior high student each, give them crazy superpowers, and then have them fight each other for the title of King of the Celestial World. Think about it... its like a bunch of rich Texas oil barons rounding up hoboes to race for some made up title like Master of the Universe or something. Hilarious! Not only that, but the powers that these individuals grant these children (c'mon... adults making children fight is warped) are so ridiculous. Ueki, the main character, has the talent to turn garbage into trees... wtf!? That alone intrigued me enough to buy the first volume.
The pace of this manga is comparable to Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo. Its frantic and doesn't pause for much. And the villains are truly truly evil. A doctor with a golf club trying to kill a bunch of children with his car after he clubs them with said golf club is pure, unadulterated evil. Thats so violent! The main character, Ueki, is fun too. He's ultra lazy and nothing really phases him. He just reacts to whatever comes across his path. He's almost perfectly Zen. Like some wandering samurai, hippy who's into the environment. Loved this manga and highly recommend it. Awesome toilet reading!
