とっても魅力的な絵です

It's a very attractive picture

こういう細部まで神経の行き届いた絵って好き。まずそこに惹かれて読み始めました。でもソマリがいいんです。かわいくて一生懸命で。細部をじっくり堪能しつつストーリーも味あわせていただきます。

I love this kind of painstaking detail. I was first drawn to it and started reading it. But I like Somalia. so cute and so hard. You will enjoy the story while thoroughly enjoying the details.

残念ながら

regretfully

著者の方が病気で連載が終了していましました。続巻は出ないと思われます。面白かったのに残念です。

The series has ended due to the author's illness. I don't think there will be a next volume. It was interesting, but it's a shame.

質のいいファンタジー

Good quality fantasy

人間の子供ソマリを人間の世界に戻すため、森を出た守り人ゴーレム。感情を持たないはずなのに、ソマリと暮らす内に、徐々に感情を持ち始める。村や人外の外部など、細部もよく描かれていて、ファンタジーの世界にどっぷり浸れます。穏やかなお話なので、ワクワクを求める方には不向きかもしれません。

Human child Golem is a guardian who left the forest to return Somalia to the human world. They are not supposed to have feelings, but as they live with Somalia, they gradually begin to have feelings. The details, such as the village and the outside world, are also well drawn, and you can fully immerse yourself in a fantasy world. It's a gentle story, so it might not be suitable for those looking for excitement.

シビアだけど夢のある世界観がすごい！

The severe yet dreamy view of the world is amazing!

絵は子供の頃に好きだったファンタジーの世界のようで好きです。丁寧な作画で誰が見ても長時間をかけて仕上げているのがわかる素晴らしい作品です。ストーリーも心が温まる場面が多くて感慨深いです。ゴーレムが幼くて手に余るソマリの言動を本当の親のように愛情深く見守っている姿に胸が熱くなります。アニメも始まったのでこれからが楽しみです。

I like the picture because it's like a fantasy world I loved when I was a kid. It is a wonderful work with careful drawing and no matter who sees it, you can see that it took a long time to finish. The story also has many heartwarming scenes, which are deeply moving. My heart is warmed by the sight of Golem affectionately watching over the young and unruly Somali words and actions like a real parent. The anime has also started, so I'm looking forward to the future.

ファンタジー

fantasy

絵柄的には「魔法使いの嫁」に似ていると思います。何となく物語の方向性は見えていますが、ほのぼのした感じと厳しい現実と入り交じり、ストーリー性が高いです。感じとしては今風に言えば「多様性」を大切にすべきといったところでしょうか・・・。

I think it's similar to “The Wizard's Bride” in terms of pattern. Somehow I can see the direction of the story, but it's a heartwarming feeling mixed with harsh reality, and the storyline is high. As a feeling, in modern terms, it's probably a place where “diversity” should be valued...

純粋と突っ込み

Pure and Plunge

あての無い旅をする話ですが、しっかりした世界観の中、ソマリの純粋さとゴーレムの冷静な突っ込みにとても引き込まれます。

It's a story about an aimless journey, but in a solid worldview, I'm very drawn in by the purity of Somalia and the calm immersion of the golem.

読んだらぶらむだった

I was hanging out after reading it

This review contains spoilers. 弐瓶勉のハードSF“BLAMU!”を読んでるような感覚になります。“人間”を探す旅も被ります。あちらよりはマイルドですが、ブラムが好きな方はお試しに読んでみては。

This review contains spoilers. Tsutomu Nihei's hard sci-fi “BLAMU!” It makes me feel like I'm reading. I'm also involved in a journey to search for “humans.” It's milder than that one, but if you like Bram, why not try reading it.

泣かされました?

made you cry?

現在出ている４巻まで読みましたが、とても繊細な絵でいろんな種族、いろんな町並みがでていてとても雰囲気があります。旅の中での出会いと別れ、そして再開もあり、心に響くストーリーに泣かされました。

I've read up to 4 volumes that are currently out, and the pictures are very delicate, there are various races, and various townscapes, and it has a very atmospheric atmosphere. The story that resonated with my heart made me cry when I met and parted ways during the trip, and there was also a restart.

異形

variant

キャラクターの殆ど異形の物だが完成度の高い絵柄なので、違和感無く読むことができました。ストーリー設定、世界観も独特ですが擬似親子の旅物語で謎が段々解ってくる面白さが有り、これからも楽しみです。

Almost all of the characters are unusual, but the design has a high degree of perfection, so I was able to read it without feeling uncomfortable. The story setting and world view are also unique, but the mystery is gradually being solved in a simulated parent-child travel story, and I'm looking forward to it from now on.

なんだこのきもちは

What is this feeling

人間が食料と認識される世界での危険な旅。感情を持たないゴーレムが旅の中で感情を学ぶ。ゴーレムの寿命が迫り別れが目前に迫っている。…切ないのてんこ盛りですよ!心の柔らかい部分がぎゅうってなりますよ!柔らかなタッチの絵柄に緻密な描き込みの美しい背景もステキです。

A dangerous journey in a world where humans are recognized as food. Golems, who have no emotions, learn emotions during their travels. Golems are nearing their lifespan, and parting ways are just around the corner. ... the feeling of sadness is in full swing! the soft part of your heart will be filled up! The soft-touch pattern and the beautiful background with precise details are also wonderful.

ゴーレムが感情を抱いていく

Golems have feelings

This review contains spoilers. 絵が好き嫌いしますね。私は気にしませんでした。背景もキャラと同じ感じで描いているようで、区別がつきにくい場面もありました。手間がかかる絵ですね。最近、人外モノが多くなってきました。ゴーレムが「おとうさん」と呼ばれ、いろいろソマリと触れ合って感情が出てきてますね。あと数年でソマリの親に会えるのでしょうか。ソマリと別れられるのか。旅の行方に注目です。

This review contains spoilers. I love and hate pictures. I didn't care. The background also seemed to be drawn in the same way as the characters, and there were scenes where it was difficult to tell them apart. It's a painstaking picture, isn't it? Recently, there have been a lot of foreign objects. Golems are called “dads,” and emotions come out when they interact with Somalis in various ways. Will I be able to meet my Somali parents in a few years? Can we break up with Somalia? I'm paying attention to the whereabouts of the trip.
