人は皆自分の弱さや醜さを抱えて生きて行く

Everyone lives with their own weaknesses and ugliness

This review contains spoilers. この作家さんのお話は、どれも、単純なハッピーエンドではない。いつも、「そうか、ここで終わるのか」と、一瞬、意外に思う。だが、もう一度最初から読むと、この終わり方で良かったんだと思えてくる。このお話は、その最たる物だったと思う。なぜ香と愛娘は死ななければいけなかったのか、彼女達の死がそれぞれの人生にどのように影響したのか、それが最終回に描かれている。香の死によって、物語の終盤、一気に主人公達3人のむき出しの感情が表れ、素の自分に戸惑い、受入れ、そして、自分の欠点を直視しながら、一歩だけ前に進む。この作家さんの話は、いつまでも読者である私達にも自分の内面を否応なく見つめさせる。これからも、ふとした拍子に、よく思い出すんだろう。そして、自分の弱さや矛盾を抱えたまま生きて良いんだと思わせてくれるんだろう。

This review contains spoilers. None of this writer's stories have simple happy endings. I'm always surprised for a moment, “OK, will it end here?” However, when I read it again from the beginning, I think I'm glad it ended this way. I think this story was the best of them all. Why did Kao and her beloved daughter have to die, and how their deaths affected their lives are depicted in the final episode. Due to Incense's death, at the end of the story, the bare feelings of the three main characters appear all at once, and while being confused by their true self, they accept it, and move forward only one step forward while facing up to their own shortcomings. This writer's story will inevitably make us, readers, look at our own inner world. From now on, I'm sure I'll always remember it by accident. Also, it probably makes me think that it's okay to live with my own weaknesses and contradictions.

香りと匂いの違いを考えてみた

I thought about the difference between scent and smell

その人にとって好ましく感じるのが香りうっっとなるのが匂い？けど臭いの方が当てはまるじゃ、匂いって何？？？もしかしてその人の深い所に刺さるのが匂い？！そうなのかも…ネタバレしないように書いたらとりとめのない感想になってしまったわこの作者さんの人が持ってるであろう潜在意識をぐっと掴んで突きつけてくる表現に引き込まれます別作品も同様ですが、現役医療者らしい側面もとても参考になる場面多し好きな作家さんです

What I feel is good for that person is the smell that makes the scent annoying? But if odor is more applicable, what is smell??? Could it be that it stings deep into that person's place?! Maybe so... if I wrote it without spoilers, I was drawn into an expression that grabs a lot and confronts the subconscious mind that the person who wrote it without spoilers. The same goes for other works, but the aspect of being an active medical practitioner is also very helpful, and I like it because there are many scenes that are very helpful.

クズ！！クズの集まり！！でもそれが人間

scum!! A bunch of scum!! But that's a human

最新刊まで楽しく拝読しています。実際ありそうなエピソードばかりでリアル感があります。始まりを考えると2025.1現在、なんかすごい方向に話が展開しています。バカだな〜！クズだな〜〜！でも自分含めて大人なら誰でも『なんでこんなことした！？』という事は色々あるよな〜…と思います。それが人間なんだろうと思います。どこが終着点になるのか分からないけど、今後の展開を見守ります。毎月欠かさずの連載ありがとうございます。完結まで応援しています。

I enjoy reading even the latest edition. There is a sense of realism with only episodes that actually seem likely to happen. Thinking about the beginning, as of 2025.1, the story is unfolding in an amazing direction. that's stupid! that's scum! But any adult, including myself, said, “Why did you do this!?” I think there are a lot of things like that... I think that's a human being. I don't know where the end point will be, but I'll keep an eye on future developments. Thank you so much for the monthly serialization. I'm rooting for it until it's completed.

みどりは裏切ってなかった！

Midori didn't betray you!

This review contains spoilers. どこまで泥沼化するのかと思っていたが、みどりが白川を裏切ってないことがわかりほっとしたものの、先輩があまりにも弱く未熟で情けなくなった。最初は先輩派だったんだけどねぇ。太宰なんかに通じるサブカル系陰キャインテリ男子っぽさはありますね。どうか先輩がみどりに真実を話しますように。

This review contains spoilers. I was wondering how far it would become a quagmire, but although I was relieved to know that Midori hadn't betrayed Shirakawa, my senior was so weak, immature, and pathetic. At first, they were in the senpai group, though. There's a subcultural Yin Kaitsuri boyish character similar to Dazai, isn't it? I hope Senpai will tell Midori the truth.

64巻を心待ちにしてやっと読めた

I was finally able to read volume 64 after looking forward to it

ずっと好きでこの独特の世界観が楽しくて読み続けてきて、次はどんな展開になるのかと楽しみにして64巻をやっと読んだ。感想:もう読むのやめるかもしれないと思った。

I've always liked this unique view of the world, so I continued to read it, and I finally read 64 volumes looking forward to seeing what kind of development it would be next. Impression: I thought I might stop reading it.

勘弁してくれ。。。

please forgive me...

This review contains spoilers. 最新63巻しんどすぎる。香があんなことになってから嫌な予感はしていたが(恐らく読者の多くが想像していた嫌な展開だが)やはりまたこうなってしまうのか。。一体何がしたい物語なのか分からなくなってきた。個人的な考えを言えば少女漫画レーベルでヒューマンドラマをメインに描かないでほしいとも思う。あくまで一要素にしておいてほしい。。でも漫画にもキャラにも力がある面白い作品なので読んでしまう。。辛い…。読むのやめたいけど、続きが気になってしまってやめられるかわからない。面白さは保証するけど楽しい気分になれるとは言えない。今はただ辛い。

This review contains spoilers. The latest 63 volumes are too tough. I had a bad feeling after incense became like that (probably a bad development that many readers had imagined), but I wonder if it would happen again... I'm starting to lose track of what the hell I want to tell this story. Speaking of personal thoughts, I also want them not to draw mainly human dramas on girls' manga labels. I just want you to keep it as one element.. But it's an interesting work where both comics and characters have power, so I read it... it's painful... I want to stop reading it, but I'm worried about the continuation and don't know if I can. I guarantee it will be fun, but I can't say that it will make you feel happy. Right now it's just hard.

展開にビックリ

Surprised at the development

This review contains spoilers. 香の赤ちゃんが流れてしまって先輩とは終わるかと思いきやその後結婚してさらに無事に赤ちゃんを産んで幸せにスタートで、略奪したのに結果オーライになるんだー微妙と思ってたらまさかの香の死亡…。さらには赤ちゃんまでとは。赤ちゃんは生かしておいてみどりが育てる展開かと思ったら違ったけどこれからどうなるんかなー。またヨリ戻すのかなー

This review contains spoilers. I thought incense's baby would end up with her senpai, but after that, they got married, had a baby even more safely, and started happily, and even though they looted them, the results were OK — when I thought it was subtle, incense died unexpectedly... What's more, even babies. It was different when I thought it would be a development where the baby was kept alive and raised by Midori, but I wonder what will happen in the future. I wonder if they'll put it back together

人間愛としか思えないけど

I can only think of it as human love

This review contains spoilers. 香の死は予想できなかったな。また先輩の方へ心が向いてしまうんでしょうか。そろそろ決着が欲しい。ラブストーリーの部分、ラブコメからそれて迷走してますかね。軸は戻らないような。

This review contains spoilers. Incense's death was unpredictable, wasn't it? I wonder if my heart will turn to my seniors again. I want it to be settled soon. I wonder if they've strayed away from the love story part, the romantic comedy. The axis doesn't seem to return.

人のモノを取ったらバチが当たって

If you take a person's thing, the bee will hit you

This review contains spoilers. みどりの先輩への態度も悪かったのかもしれないけど、香と5年の不倫はありえないよ。とっとと香退場してくれないかなーと思ってました。まして妊娠結婚（流産したけど）出産なんて見たくなかった。先輩はもちろん悪いけど。ずーっとモヤモヤしています。しっかり香には不倫の責任を取ってもらわないと。人のモノを盗むとどうなるか。不憫な生い立ちは関係ない。子供には責任ないけど、今後どんな展開になるか見続けます。

This review contains spoilers. Midori's attitude towards Senpai may have been bad too, but it's impossible for Koka to have an affair for 5 years. I was wondering if they would finally leave. What's more, I didn't want to watch a pregnancy marriage (although I had a miscarriage) and give birth. Senpai is bad, of course. I've been confused the whole time. I have to make sure that Kaori takes responsibility for the affair. What happens if you steal something from someone? My poor upbringing doesn't matter. I'm not responsible for the kids, but I'll keep watching how things unfold in the future.

勉強になる

It's a learning experience

作者買いです。生い立ちも様々。考え方、価値観も様々。その人その人の立場になって私なりに考えてみるとわかるものがあった様に思いました。

I'm buying the author. There are also various upbringings. There are also various ways of thinking and values. I thought there was something I could understand when I put that person in that person's shoes and thought about it in my own way.

タイトル以上に色々考えさせられる

It makes me think more than the title

タイトル以上に読み続けていくと、いろんな問題や感情にぶちあたるたびに、自分にも重なるとこもあり、自分もみんなも生きてる上で起きることで考えさせられることが、この漫画にもでてきて、自分を見つめ直したり、はっとさせられるところが多々あります。あと単純に、ぶっとんでて、漫画として面白いし、感動するところは感動するし、毎月の楽しみ

If you continue reading beyond the title, every time you run into various issues and feelings, there are places that overlap with me, and things that make you think about what happens when you and everyone are alive also appear in this comic, and there are many places where you can look back at yourself and be amazed. Also, it's simply ridiculous, interesting as a comic, and moving places are moving, and I enjoy it every month

this is interesting! The story isn't too normal and the characters have their own personalities, so that's impossible? While thinking about it, they seem to be immersed in the likely feeling.

It's nice that this group of 3 perverts is so funny. Senpai is so cute that she is doing her best even though she doesn't even speak. My fellow chara-man was also beaten by the heroine, and he went in a strange direction and raised his voice and laughed.

むかつく

I'm sick

This review contains spoilers. みどりの奔放さが事の発端ですが、先輩ひどい。コミュ症だから、かおりの本性にも気付かない。かおりにはめられて、結局みどりの代わりにしてるし。挙げ句の果ては中毒で黒過ぎる。かおりが一番酷い。先輩は結婚しなかったら良かったにと思う。最近、かおりの話ばかりですごくむかつきます。かおりの不幸を先輩が責任感じて一緒になったら、気分悪いですね。みどりは白川と一緒になって欲しいけど、どうなるのかなぁ。

This review contains spoilers. Greenery's unbridled nature started the incident, but Senpai is terrible. Since she has communication disorder, she doesn't even notice Kaori's true nature. I was put in by Kaori, and I ended up taking Midori's place. At the end of the day, it's addictive and too black. Kaori is the worst. I wish my senior hadn't gotten married. Recently, I'm really upset because I've been talking about Kaori all the time. I don't feel good when Senpai feels responsible for Kaori's misfortune and they get together. I want Midori to be with Shirakawa, but I wonder what will happen.
