素晴らしい短編集

Great short story

これは、なんて素晴らしい短編集でしょう。どのお話も、また読み返したくなる、味わい深い作品たちでした。

What a great short story this is. Every story was a tasteful work that made me want to reread it again.

短編なのに深い

Even though it's a short story, it's deep

短編3作品。どれも短編と思えないほど読み応えがあり、物足りなさを感じない。凄い力量の漫画家さん！感動しました。今後は長編物も読んでみたい。

3 short films. All of them are so legible that you can't think of them as short stories, and I don't feel that they are unsatisfactory. A manga artist with amazing abilities! I'm moved. I'd like to read long stories in the future.

短編集として抜群にいい！

It's great as a short story!

初購入作家さん。1話1話の絵も背景もストーリーの構成も、短編の中でしっかりまとまっていて、とても良い作品。また、組み込まれてる3種のストーリーがファンタジー、現代、SFと設定はバラバラながらも、どれも切なさと愛に溢れた作りになっていて、作者さんの世界観が伝わってくる。中でも表題作が特に良い。短編ながら、彼等の関係性がちらりと伺えるため、これだけでも十分素晴らしいが、もし一冊丸々表題作だったとしたら映画化しても良いくらい良い話だった。お勧めです。

First-time buyer artist. The pictures, background, and story structure of each episode are well organized in a short story, and it's a very good work. Also, even though the settings of the 3 built-in stories are separate from fantasy, modern, and sci-fi, they are all made full of sadness and love, and the author's view of the world is conveyed. Above all, the title work is particularly good. Although it's a short story, you can see a glimpse of their relationship, so this alone is wonderful enough, but it was such a good story that it could be made into a movie if the entire book were the title work. I recommend it.

私は物語を読みながら泣いた

I cried while reading the story

SFとファンタジーの３つのBLストーリー。私はそれぞれの物語を読むのが楽しかった。「果ての荒野でバカンスを」とゆうタイトルの最後の物語は私を泣かせた。全体的に面白い本です!

Three BL stories, sci-fi and fantasy. I enjoyed reading each story. The last story, titled “Vacation at the End of the Wilderness,” made me cry. Overall it's an interesting book!

オールドスタイルSFの良き

Good old style sci-fi

これはこれは。。。。刺さる短編集です。初読み作家様でしたが、フォローしている方々が次々にレビューを上げていらしたので買っておいてやっぱり良かった。表題作は、ブラッドベリ→萩尾望都を読んだ人なら間違いなく懐かしさで胸がいっぱいになるのではないかと。レビューを読んでいたのでわかっていたとはいえ、この短さで最後に全てがタイトルに帰って行くこの感じ。SF独特の抒情性を保ったままblとしても読めて素晴らしい。他の短編もちょっと変わっていてblならではで好きです。

This is this... It's a short story that sticks. It was a first-time reader writer, but the people I followed were posting reviews one after another, so I'm glad I bought it. If you read Bradbury → Moto Hagio, the title work will definitely fill your heart with nostalgia. I was reading the review, so I knew it, but it felt like everything went back to the title at the end due to this shortness. It's great to be able to read it as BL while maintaining the lyricism unique to science fiction. The other short films have changed a bit, and I like them because they are unique to BL.

SFファンタジー✨?

sci-fi fantasy ✨?

短編３作品収録。表題作、そうだよね～こういう事だよねぇ～という展開。切ないし苦しい。堪らない??あの時にこうしておけばよかった？想いを伝えられたら？どうしたらよかった？って問うても問うても。他２作もとても美しい作品でした。初読み作家さんでした。他も読んでみたいと思います?

Includes 3 short films. The title work is developed by, “Yes, that's right... this is it.” It's sad and painful. unbearable?? Should I have done this at the time? What if you could convey your feelings? What should I do? Whether you ask or ask. The other 2 works were also very beautiful. It was a first-time reader writer. Want to read anything else?

いや結末大体わかってたけど…それでも辛い

No, I almost understood the ending, but... it's still painful

This review contains spoilers. はぁ...ですよね、そういう展開ですよね、やっぱり。色んなSFの映像作品とかを観てると、大体エンディングが想像できてしまいますよね。『果ての荒野でバカンスを』ももしかしてと思いながら読みましたが、わかっていても結末を知った時の衝撃は変わりませんね…。悲しいよお。お互いまだキスもした事なかった愛する相手なのに。自分をシンの立場に置いて考えたら、真実を知った時のその悲しみは想像を絶すると思う。そんな呑気に“バカンス”なんてやってらんないっす…。エンドロールで最後のシーン、シンがキューブにログして動画を録画する場面、20XX年6月23日と書かれていますが、なんと偶然にもこの作品を読んだ今日が(アメリカ時間で)6月23日でした！狙ってませんよ！？そのページ読んだ瞬間ちょっとびっくりしました。今夜はシンとルキヤを想いながら眠ることにします。他の短編2作もとても良かったです。短話なのに、しっかりと伝わってくるメッセージがあって、どの物語も心に響きます。赤河左岸先生のストーリーの進行のさせ方が凄く独特で複雑で好きです。読みながら、想像させられて、考えさせられました。BL AWARD 2021 BEST DEEP部門にランクインしています。

This review contains spoilers. Huh... right, that's how it developed, after all. When you watch various sci-fi video works, you can almost imagine the ending. I read “Vacation at the End of the Wilderness” while thinking maybe, but even if I knew it, my shock when I learned about the ending didn't change... that's sad. We love each other and haven't even kissed each other yet. If you put yourself in Shin's position, I think it's unimaginable how sad it is when you know the truth. I didn't go on a “vacation” out of such emptiness... The last scene in Endroll, the scene where Shin logs to the cube and records a video, is written as 20XX 6/23, but by some coincidence, today (US time) was 6/23 (US time) when I read this work! you're not aiming for it!? I was a little surprised the moment I read that page. Tonight I'm going to sleep thinking about Shin and Rukiya. The other 2 short films were also very good. Even though it's a short story, it has a message that is conveyed clearly, and every story resonates with my heart. I like the way Akagawa Sakishi sensei's story progresses is so unique and complicated. As I read it, it made me imagine and make me think. It has been ranked in the BL AWARD 2021 BEST DEEP category.

3本の短編集

3 short stories

短編て尺が短いからご都合BL展開に進んだりするけど、この本は違った。構成がよく練られてて不自然さがまるでない。たぶん、BL書こう！じゃなくて魂単位の愛だし性別など後付けでも良いのかな。ストーリーを楽しみたい時に。1話目は電気もないぐらいの昔のお話。最初？？で読んでたけど、意味がわかって繋がった瞬間、鳥肌ぶわ〜〜でした。ネタバレ無しで読んで欲しい。2話目は現代社会のDK。主人公の悩みは凡人には理解できないだろうが、みんなが知ってる美女と野獣になぞらえてるのがわかり易く、ほほーなるほどでした。3話目が表題作。100年程未来の話。タネあかしされて行く度に心が鷲掴みされました。時代や人物もほんっとにバラバラで、幅広いジャンル(？)世界観をまとめて読めるのでオススメ！頭は使いますw

It's a short story and the length is short, so it's convenient to move on to BL development, but this book was different. The structure is well thought out and there is absolutely no unnaturalness. Maybe I'll write BL! Not that, but I wonder if it's okay to add things like love in soul units, gender, etc. as an afterthought. When you want to enjoy the story. The first episode is about a long time ago, when there was no electricity. first?? I was reading it, but the moment I understood the meaning and connected, I had goose bumps. I want you to read it without spoilers. The second episode is DK for modern society. The main character's troubles may not be understood by ordinary people, but the fact that they were compared to Beauty and the Beast that everyone knows was easy to understand, and it made me laugh. Episode 3 is the title work. A story about 100 years from now. My heart was gripped every time I was told by the seed. The eras and people are really different, and there are a wide range of genres (?) I recommend it because you can read the worldview all at once! I use my head lol

sad good good!!!!

短編集ですが、どの話も素晴らしく胸に響きました。宇宙の単身赴任の話は本当に切ないですね。僕の地球を守ってを思い出し重ねて泣けました。

It's a short story, but every story resonated wonderfully in my heart. The story of being assigned alone in space is really sad, isn't it? Remembering Save My Earth made me cry over and over again.

読み切り3作です。ファンタジー強め。表題作が気になり購入しました。なるほどそう来るか…という、引き込まれる作品でした。SFものも好きなので楽しめました。

There are 3 one-off works. Strong fantasy. I was curious about the title work and bought it. It was a work that drew me in, “I see, will it come?” I also like sci-fi stuff, so I enjoyed it.

美しくて秀逸な短編集

A beautiful and excellent short story

某人気作家さんが最近良かった作品でお薦めされていた事がきっかけで購入。短編3作ともすっごく良かった！表題作と1作目の「2人ぼっちのエバーアフター」もグッと胸を掴まれる作品でしたが、特に表題作は切なさが刺さりまくって久々に漫画でホロっと泣けました。タイトルも素晴らしく良い。読後感がじんわりくる余韻が堪りません。SF短編作品してもとても良作で、作者さんは星新一氏の作品がお好きなのかな？と思える心地よい作風。まるでSFショートムービーかSF小説(ライトノベルではなく、SF文学や純文学寄り)を読んでいるような気分になりました。もうBLジャンルではなく青年誌枠で良いのでは？と思える間口の広さです。沢山の方達に是非とも読んで頂きたい作品です。独特の色気は随所にありますが、エロさを期待してる方には向きません。

I bought it because a popular artist recently recommended a good work. All 3 short films were so good! The title work and the first “Ever After for Two” were also works that really grabbed my heart, but in particular, the title work stuck so much sadness that it made me cry for the first time in a long time with comics. The title is also very good. The gentle afterglow after reading is unbearable. Even if it's a sci-fi short film, it's a very good work, and I wonder if the author likes Shinichi Hoshi's work? A comfortable style that makes you think. I felt like I was reading a sci-fi short movie or science fiction novel (not a light novel, closer to sci-fi literature or pure literature). Isn't it okay to use a youth magazine instead of the BL genre anymore? It's as wide as the frontage. I definitely want many people to read this work. There are unique sex appeal everywhere, but it is not suitable for those who expect eroticism.

我慢したのに涙

Tears even though I put up with it

目次を見て、あ、短編集だったか、、、短編はあまり好きじゃないのになあ、なんて思いながらも読んでたらもーーもーー1つ目のお話でぐっときて我慢、2つ目のお話で優しい気持ちになって3つ目で零れてたよね涙。あーもう素敵泣いてしまうけど。

I looked at the table of contents, ah, maybe it was a short story... I didn't really like the short story, but when I read it while thinking, I had a lot of patience with the first story, and I felt kind in the second story, and I burst into tears in the third one. Oh, it's already so wonderful that it makes me cry.

There is an afterglow

3つの短編が収録されています。どれ話も良かった。淡々と進むのに物足りなさはなく余韻が残ります。時々読み返したくなりそう。

Three short stories have been recorded. Every story was good. Even though it progresses slowly, there is nothing unsatisfactory and a lingering afterglow remains. Sometimes I want to reread it.

まばゆい短編集

A dazzling short story

作者さんの前作「羽化」も好きです。今作は50〜60Pほどの読み切りが3本、ファンタジー・現代もの・SFとジャンルはバラバラですが作風に統一感があり違和感なく読めます。どの作品も越えなければならないテーマを抱えており、それを解き放ってくれるのが愛である、そんな物語たちに胸を打たれました。個人的にSFとBLは相性がいいと思っていて、普段SFになじみのない人にも本作は是非おすすめしたいです。

I also like the author's previous work “Eternity.” This work has 3 one-off chapters of about 50 to 60 pages, and although the genres are separate from fantasy, contemporary, and sci-fi, there is a sense of unity in style, so I can read it without any sense of incongruity. Every work has a theme that must be overcome, and I was struck by such stories where love is what unlocks it. Personally, I think sci-fi and BL go well together, and I would definitely recommend this game to people who aren't usually familiar with science fiction.
