日曜日に生まれた子供に福音を。

The gospel for children born on Sunday.

This review contains spoilers. ちょっと時代を遡った貴族のお話。私はこの時代のBLがことのほか好きです。現代にはない不便さだとか、不便だからこそ許されるおおらかさを愛してやまないから。表題作。貴族と執事の幼いころの出会いと、叔父との秘密の繋がり。それが明かされたときに、執事を何度も父親と間違えたことが貴族の優しさではなかったのか…と思い至り絶句。（そんな優しさが世の中にあるかい…）続くオリーブでは、奥さんが悪人じゃないのが良くて、オリーブに託された優しさが作品全体を包み込んでいるようです。『森の郵便配達人』捨てられた少年に、居場所を示した番人。ただ同じベッドで2人丸くなって眠ることだけが少年の望むものの全て。描きおろしは最後までブレなかった少年の気持ちを思うと、涙無くしては読めなかった。2人をそっと見守る森の住人の気持ちになって読みました。そしてBL本の中にまさかのGLが！こういう遊び心が大好きなんよ紺野先生！

This review contains spoilers. This is a story about an aristocrat who has gone back in time a bit. I really like BL from this era. That's because I love the inconveniences we don't have today, or the generosity that is allowed only because it's inconvenient. Title work. An early encounter between a nobleman and a butler, and a secret connection with his uncle. When it was revealed, I thought that mistaking the butler for his father over and over again was probably not the kindness of the aristocrats... (Is there such kindness in the world...) In Olive, which continues, it is good that the wife is not a bad person, and it seems that the kindness entrusted to Olive envelops the entire work. “The Postman in the Forest” is a guard who showed an abandoned boy his whereabouts. The only thing the boy wanted was for the two to roll up and sleep in the same bed. When I thought about the boy's feelings that didn't blur until the end of the drawing, I couldn't read it without tears. I read it with the feeling of a forest resident gently watching over the two of them. And then there was an unexpected GL in the BL book! I love this kind of playfulness, Konno sensei!

絵本のような

like a picture book

絵柄にストーリー。ガツガツでもエロエロでもなく、どこかキュっと胸を締めつけられる感じで好きです。年配の雰囲気にも味があります。

A story in a pattern. I like it because it's not gutsy or erotic, and it feels like it tightens my chest somewhere. The old vibe also has its flavor.

美しかった～

it was beautiful~

ファンタジー絵本のような美しさでした。エロはほぼないし、BL度はかなり低め。いくつかの短編が入っていますが、表題作と同窓会の話が好き。ここで書くのは見も蓋もないけど、電子書籍じゃなくて紙の本で手元に置きたいな。

It was as beautiful as a fantasy picture book. There's almost no eroticism, and the BL level is pretty low. There are a few short stories in it, but I like the title work and the reunion story. What I write here doesn't have a cover or look, but I want to keep it handy in a paper book, not an e-book.

雰囲気が素敵

The atmosphere is nice

作者買いです。なんとも言えない雰囲気が好き。普通の日常なのに美しい世界にしてしまう、そしてBLなのに、ユリなのに純愛。やっぱり良かった。短編も全部良かった。なんとも言えない切ない余韻も良かった。とにかくこちらの作者様の漫画が好きなんです。

I'm buying the author. I like the indescribable atmosphere. Even though it's normal everyday life, it makes it a beautiful world, and even though it's BL, it's pure love even though it's a lily. It was good after all. The short stories were all good too. The indescribable sad afterglow was also good. Anyway, I love this author's comics.

私は好き！

I love it!

ファンとまではいきませんが、作者の作品はほとんど購入して読んでいます。淡々としていて私は好きなんです。優しい雰囲気が好きというか、綺麗なものばかり描かないところも好きというか。例えば若くてイケメンの登場人物が、ふとした瞬間におでこに皺が出来てて老けてみえたり。いもあん先生が好きな人なら紺野キタ先生も好きな気がします！

I'm not a fan, but I've bought and read most of the author's works. I like it because it's plain. They say they like a gentle atmosphere, or they also like places where they don't only draw beautiful things. For example, a young and good-looking character has wrinkles on her forehead at an instant and looks old. If Ioman sensei is someone you like, I feel like Kita Konno likes her too!

短編集です。百合も含まれます。タイトルから好きです。日曜日に生まれた登場人物。ひねくれた感じも好きです。一番好きなお話は恩師と元生徒の熟年カップルが好きでした。

This is a short edit. Lilies are also included. I like it from the title. Characters born on Sunday. I also like the perverse feeling. My favorite story was a mature couple between a teacher and a former student.

心地よい時間が流れるお話

A story where time flows comfortably

読みホにて。優しい雰囲気が作品全体を覆っているような作風で好きでした。主と執事の静かな恋のお話。他2作品入ってましたがどれも好きでした。

Read it in Ho. I liked the style because the gentle atmosphere covered the entire work. A story about the quiet love between the lord and the butler. There were 2 other works, and I liked them all.

何か癒された

Something healed

登場人物みんなカワイくて良かったです。表題作のほかに短編が入っていて、どれもキレイにまとまってる印象でした。表題作の日曜日に生まれたこども（主人×青年執事）は、意外と自由奔放な奥様がいい味出していたように思います。あと、純粋に青年執事・エリックの顔が好みでした。笑森の郵便屋さんは童話風で、森の番人（老人）とその養い子の話。ほのぼので可愛かったです。一番気に入ったかも。何か強烈なメッセージがあるという話ではないんですが、優しくて癒される。最後の話数に、まさかの数十年後？ぐらいの話があって、ちょっと切ないのも良かったです。あとは、初老（恩師）×中年（元生徒）のＣＰだったり、女学園的寮の一幕、百合な話があったりと、雰囲気は可愛らしくほのぼのなのに設定は濃い(笑)さらりと流してますが。（正直、百合話はどっちかというとありきたりで別に無くても良かったかな～と思いましたが…）激しい愛だったりエロだったりを好む方には肩透かしで、ぼやけた印象になりそうな話ですが、何か癒されたい時に読みたくなるお話だったと思います。

I'm glad all the characters are so cute. There were short stories in addition to the title work, and I had the impression that they were all neatly organized. Surprisingly, the child born on Sunday (husband x young butler) in the title story seems to have a good taste in his free-spirited wife. Also, I genuinely liked the face of Eric, the young butler. Lol The Post Shop in the Forest is like a fairy tale, a story about a forest keeper (old man) and his adopted child. It was heartwarming and cute. Maybe I liked it the most. I'm not talking about a strong message, but it's kind and soothing. How many decades after the last number of episodes? There were so many stories, and it was nice that it was a little sad. After that, it's a CP of the first generation (teacher) x middle age (former student), a scene in the Jogakuen dormitory, and a lily story, etc., and the atmosphere is cute and heartwarming, yet the setting is strong (lol), and the setting is strong (lol). (Honestly, I was wondering which story about lilies was commonplace, and I wonder if it wasn't there...) It's a story that blurs the shoulders and seems to give a blurry impression to those who like intense love or eroticism, but I think it was a story you'll want to read when you want to be healed by something.
