This manga tells the story of Akhilleus (a.k.a. Achilles) in Greece, before the Trojan war. But, in a twist, this Akhilleus is a busty woman who fights in sexy bikini armor. She fights with Agamemnon, who is in the process of extending his dominion through Greece.

High school student Misumi Makoto is called into a fantasy world by the goddess Tsukuyomi, in order to be a hero. However, powerful others in this world aren't as thrilled to have him there, and they kick him to the edge of the world just as Tsukuyomi declares that she must leave him to find his own way. Now it's up to him to find his own way!

This manga is based on the idol-training battle game (which has also become an anime) of the same name. In the near future, a new form of entertainment called "Formula Venus (FV)" becomes popular. On FV, top idols battle it out in live performances using their strength, skills, and experience. This story begins with a fledgling idol named Takano Karen, who wants to become the top of FV!

My opinion:
Akhilleus - Argos no Gunshin - If you like historical manga with some ecchi-ness thrown in, then this manga about Achilles may pique your interest.
Tsuki ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu - On the other hand, if you're more in the mood for fantasy with a mix of comedy, then you should check this manga out instead.
Venus Project - If you like the anime and want some more ecchi-ness in your life and you like idols, then you should check this one out as well...
