好きな言葉に出会えて嬉しい

I'm happy to have found a word I like

This review contains spoilers. 「恋は遠くで降る雨。」なんていい表現だろう。何度でもそのシーンを探して読み返しています。読む度に沁みて、なんでこんな言葉を思いつくんだろうと、言葉で作り出してくれてありがとうございます。

This review contains spoilers. “Love is rain falling far away.” What a nice expression. I've been searching for that scene over and over again and re-reading it. Every time I read it, it comes to my senses, and I wonder why I came up with such words, and thank you for creating them in words.

切なくて、一生懸命で、愛おしい。。

It's sad, it's hard working, and it's adorable..

全4巻、全て表題作ｂ。500年の営みでドハマリし、以来作者さまファンで、どれ読んでもギュンギュンします。。ぶっちゃけ、レビュータイトルはどの作品にも当てはまる！ずいぶん前に読んで、久々に再読。やっぱり、ガッツリ、心が奪われます。。ダメ親父のもと、一生懸命生きる主人公。富豪の坊っちゃんの身代わりで男装。異世界のような生活の中、バレないよう、付き人のような遼な支え。そんな中で見えてくるそれぞれの立ち位置と心情が丁寧で、ぐいぐい惹き込まれます。。読み終えた後には心にぽっかり穴が空いてしまうように、しばらく残ります。。ラストのちょい未来の場面が、読み手には嬉しい幸せです！

All 4 volumes, all titled b. After 500 years of activity, I've been a fan of the author ever since, and I'm excited no matter what I read. Damn it, the review title applies to any work! I read it a long time ago and reread it after a long time. After all, my heart is completely taken away.. The main character lives a hard life under a bad father. Dressed as a man in place of a millionaire boy. Liao's support is like an attendant so he doesn't get caught in a life like another world. The positions and feelings of each one that can be seen in such a situation are careful, and I am really drawn in.. After I finish reading it, I'll stay for a while so that it leaves a gaping hole in my heart.. The last slightly futuristic scene makes readers happy and happy!

健気で負けないの主人公がすき！

I like the main character who is strong and doesn't lose!

This review contains spoilers. 貧乏な境遇にも愛のない毎日にも負けず、頑張る主人公の敦子がかなりの好感度高め！！まわりにクズが多い中、不屈の精神で生き抜いている。甘ったれで、みんなの愛を一身に受ける至にはなかなか共感できないけれど、それぞれが各々の立場で問題を抱えている。人生において何が大切か、何によって人は強くなれるのか、色々と考えさせてくれる作品でした。

This review contains spoilers. Atsuko, the main character who does her best without being defeated by poor circumstances or everyday without love, has quite a high likability!! While there is a lot of scum around them, they have survived with an indomitable spirit. They are sweet, and it's hard to sympathize with the fact that they receive everyone's love all at once, but they each have problems from their own standpoint. It was a work that made me think a lot about what is important in life and what makes people stronger.

スパッとしているのが凄くいい！

It's really nice that it's fast!

初読み作家さま。当初は、筆致の粗さが気になりお話に集中できませんでしたが、この個性を受け入れられてくると、何だか「敦子」の可愛さも納得できてきました。完結に向けての山場もすごく良かった！そして何より、ダラダラしていないお話の締め方がスパッと気持ちが良かったです。

First time reading writer. At first, I was worried about the roughness of the brushstrokes and couldn't concentrate on the story, but once this individuality was accepted, I was somehow convinced by the cuteness of “Atsuko.” The mountain range leading up to completion was also really good! And above all, the way the story ended without being lazy felt so good.

せつなさと健気さにやられましたね…♡

It was done by being stubborn and energetic... ♡

よくあるシチュエーションでもヒコ先生の手にかかると、ほの暗い雰囲気のいい感じの恋愛漫画になりますね。でもやっぱりBLの方が合うかなぁ。そっちの方がしっくりくるような気がしてしまう…

Even in common situations, when Hiko gets hands on it, it's a nice romance comic with a slightly dark atmosphere. But I wonder if BL would be better after all. I feel like that one fits better...

お金があれば結構どうにかなっている

If I have money, I can do quite well

This review contains spoilers. だろうけど精神持たないような。健気なヒロインちゃんは成績キープしてることになっているけど普通なら鬱になってパッパラパーだと思う。とにかく皆で幸せになってくれ

This review contains spoilers. Probably, but they don't seem to have a spirit. The healthy heroine is supposed to keep her grades, but normally I think she'll get depressed and run fast. Anyway, let's all be happy

じわじわと考えさせられる作品

A work that makes you think slowly

貧乏な女子高生がある日、お金持ちのおぼっちゃまの身代わりになってしまう話。最初はお金のためだったが、家の人たちの優しさに触れていき、自分に優しくすることができるようになった主人公。切なさも優しさもうまい具合に混ざり合って、非常に考えさせられる作品です。

It's a story about a poor high school girl who one day takes the place of a rich man. At first it was for money, but then the main character came into contact with the kindness of the people in his family and became able to be kind to himself. Sadness and kindness are mixed nicely, and it is a very thought-provoking work.

大好きな漫画

Favorite comics

This review contains spoilers. 主人公が不憫な中健気にがんばっていて応援したくなります。それぞれにそれぞれのドラマがあって読んでいて苦しくなりますが、最後はみんなハッピーエンドで良かったです。

This review contains spoilers. The main character is doing his best while being pitiful, and I want to cheer for him. Each one has its own drama, which makes it painful to read, but I'm glad everyone had a happy ending at the end.

面白い

interesting

作者買いです。死にたがりと雲雀がものすごく良かった。とりあえず1巻読みました。面白くて、続きが気になりますが、主人公も他の人も結構過去とか状況が暗すぎて、ちょっと辛い。この先どうなるのかな？

I'm buying the author. Wanting to Die and Hibari were so good. Anyway, I read volume 1. It's interesting, and I'm worried about the continuation, but both the protagonist and the others have a pretty dark past and situation, so it's a bit painful. What will happen in the future?

なんども読み返したくなる

I want to reread it again and again

なかなかのとんでも展開が静かに穏やかにすすんでいく。表紙のイラストが全巻すきだなあ。読み終わったらより好きになった。

It's quite ridiculous, and the development progresses quietly and smoothly. I love all the illustrations on the cover. I fell in love with it even more after I finished reading it.

静謐さを感じる漫画。

A comic with a sense of serenity.

この漫画、ほかには感じない独特な雰囲気を持ってると思う。紙版で読んだことあったけど、再び読んだらやっぱり良かった。なんだか泣けてきた。漫画なのに、静けさを感じるんだよね。私だけ？その静謐さの中に、とても惹かれるものを感じる。とまあ、難しいことはおいといて、とにかく遼が格好いい！敦子も幸せになって良かった！！この漫画で一気に作者のファンになったので、また恋愛系の漫画描いてほしい！（切実…）BL描かずに、男女ものでお願いします！！

I think this comic has a unique atmosphere that you can't feel anywhere else. I had read it in the paper version, but it was great to read it again. Somehow it made me cry. Even though it's a comic, I feel quiet. just me? There is something in that tranquillity that I am very attracted to. Well, put aside the difficult things; anyway, Liao is so cool! I'm glad Atsuko is happy too!! I quickly became a fan of the author with this comic, so I want them to draw romance comics again! (Desperate...) Please don't draw BL, men's and women's!!

4冊とも表紙の絵が大好き

I love the picture on the cover of all 4 books

産まれて初めて知った喜びに、ひな鳥のように健気に縋っていく、そんな切ないところから始まるお話。この作品も大好き。登場人物それぞれが魅力的で、様々な思いを抱えています。立場に縛られていたり、口に出せない思いで動けなくなったり。心から振り絞るように出す言葉が胸に響きます。涙するところもあるけど、ラストはとっても幸せです！

It is a story that begins in such a sad place, with the joy of knowing for the first time after being born, and healthy as a baby bird. I love this work too. Each of the characters is fascinating, and they have various feelings. I'm bound by my position, and I can't move because I can't express my thoughts. The words I put out so that I can squeeze them out of my heart resonate in my heart. There are places where I cry, but I'm so happy at the end!

ありえない話だけど…

it's impossible, but...

設定は、そりゃありえんよって思うけど、登場人物の心情の描き方が好きです。感情移入しながら読んでしまいました。あたたかい気持ちになれる作品です。

As for the setting, I don't think that's possible, but I like the way the characters feel. I read it with empathy. It's a work that makes you feel warm.

泥臭い主人公

Muddy protagonist

わたしは、巻き込まれただけなのに…。そんな受動的な気持ちから、今度は部外者であることが虚しい…諦めるばかりの思考から、どんどん変わっていくのが魅力的な主人公でした。

I just got caught up... It was an attractive protagonist who changed steadily from such a passive feeling to being an outsider in vain... from thinking that he had just given up.

めっちゃいい！

That's so good!

BL要素が若干あるけど違和感なく読めました！主人公の健気な感じが泣けてきます。徐々に惹かれあっていく2人にドキドキワクワクしました！もうちょっと脇役が活躍するシーンも欲しかったのでスピンオフ出してほしい！

There are a few BL elements, but I was able to read it without any sense of incongruity! The main character's healthy feelings make me cry. I was thrilled and excited about the two people who gradually became attracted to each other! I also wanted a scene where the supporting characters were a little more active, so I want a spin-off to come out!

だんだん切なくなってきた

It's getting more and more sad

愛のない環境で腐ってた敦子が利用される事で自分の居場所を見出しその敦子の活躍で心を揺さぶられる遼、心のすれ違いがほんと切ない?はじめはまったく可愛くなかった敦子が今はもう可愛くて仕方ない⤴

Is it really sad that Ryo finds her place by using Atsuko, who was rotten in an environment without love, and her heart is shaken by Atsuko's activities? Atsuko, who wasn't cute at all at first, is now cute and can't be helped ⤴

とてもいい

Very nice

This review contains spoilers. 以前、人に借りて本で読んだことがありましたが、またお試し読んだら続きが読みたくなり購入しました。入れ代わりはよくある話ですが、このお話はどの話にも似ていない、初めてあったような気がします。淡々と話は進みますが、毎話泣いてしまいました。主人公や登場人物が健気で、寂しくて苦しくなるのですが、温かくて素敵な話だと思います。みんな素直になれてよかった。

This review contains spoilers. Previously, I borrowed it from someone and read it as a book, but after reading it for trial again, I wanted to read more, so I bought it. Substitution is a common story, but this story isn't similar to any story, and I feel like it's the first time it happened. The story progressed slowly, but I cried every episode. The main character and characters are healthy, and it makes me feel lonely and painful, but I think it's a warm and wonderful story. I'm glad everyone was able to be honest.
