きゅんとリアルがすごい！

Kyunto Real is amazing!

This review contains spoilers. 主人公2人のやりとりが本当にかわいくて、きゅんきゅんするしドキドキします…！タイトルの「瓜を破る」は初体験を意味しているのかなと思ったけど、初体験は性に関することだけじゃないよなぁと改めて思ったり。何歳になっても初めて知ることや経験して初めてわかることもある。登場人物たちの心の中の声もそうだよねーわかるーってなります。すごく心理描写がうまい作者さんだなぁと思います！会社の人たちのそれぞれのエピソードも織り込まれていて、同じ会社に勤めていてもそれぞれのバックグラウンドや成長の仕方が違っていてとてもリアルだなと思いました。みんな幸せになってほしいなぁ。とにかく主人公2人のぽわぽわする回がもっと見たい！笑

This review contains spoilers. The interaction between the two main characters is really cute, and it makes me excited...! I was wondering if the title “Breaking the Melon” meant a first experience, but I thought again that my first experience wasn't just about sex. No matter how old you are, there are things you know for the first time and things you only understand after experiencing them. The voices in the hearts of the characters are like that too — I understand. I think the author is really good at depicting psychology! Each episode of the people in the company was also factored in, and I thought it was very real that even if they worked for the same company, their backgrounds and ways of growing up were different. I want everyone to be happy. Anyway, I want to see more puffy episodes of the two main characters! lol

とても良きです

It's very good

This review contains spoilers. 同じ会社で働く女性たちのさまざまな悩みや生き方が描かれています。それぞれの立場の中でいろんなことを考えたり悩んだり。心情描写が丁寧で、それぞれの想いにすごく共感します。特に彼との関わりを反省したり、自分の悪いところにきちんと気づけてやり直せるお話があるのは素敵です。別れてしまう話はたくさんあるだろうけどきちんとやり直せるお話って意外と少ないのではないでしょうか。自分の人生や生活を重ねて、こんな風にはならないようにしようとか、こんな風にしたら相手を思いやることができるんだなとか、いろんなことを考えながら読んでしまいます。続きが楽しみです。

This review contains spoilers. It depicts the various worries and ways of life of women working at the same company. I think and worry about a lot of things from each position. The feelings are carefully described, and I really sympathize with each feeling. In particular, it's wonderful that there are stories where you can reflect on your relationship with him, properly notice your own bad points, and start over. There are probably a lot of stories where people break up, but I think there are surprisingly few stories where they can start over properly. I read it while thinking about various things, such as trying to keep my life and life from becoming like this, or how I can be considerate of others if I do it this way. I'm looking forward to the continuation.

これは見続けてしまいます。

I keep watching this.

大人だからこそわかる、言える言えない、聞ける聞けない。見ながら当事者になったかのように引き込まれ、それでいて身近にもあるような内容に引き込まれます。30才前後の方は結構ハマる人多いと思います。

Only adults can understand, can say, can't hear, can't listen. You are drawn in as if you were involved while watching, yet you are drawn into content that is familiar to you. I think there are a lot of people around the age of 30 who are pretty addicted to it.

最高です

It's the best

登場人物がみんな、リアル。悲しいとか、さみしさとか、嫉妬とか。自分のいやなところをちゃんと見て、生きてて。ほんといい。

All of the characters are real. Like being sad, lonely, or jealous. Take a good look at what you don't like and live. It's really nice.

おもしろいです。

It's interesting.

This review contains spoilers. 試し読みを読んで、7巻まで一気に購入しました！止まらんかった〜。登場人物が、それぞれクセのある感じなのに、皆結局いい子ばかり。自分の行動をきちんと反省して行動出来るから、見ていて安心します。楽しみにしてるはずなのに、近づくとめんどくさくなっちゃう感じ、わかるわかるって思いました。

This review contains spoilers. I read the trial reading and bought up to 7 volumes at once! I didn't want to stop. Even though the characters each have their own quirks, they're all good kids after all. I can properly reflect on my own actions and act, so I feel at ease watching. I was supposed to be looking forward to it, but I felt like it became a hassle when I got close, and I knew I understood.

This review contains spoilers. There are various characters, and it's really interesting to be able to read their values and ways of life. At the end, it often progresses in a happy direction, so I'm not too hazy when I read it. I'm most addicted to it right now!

I have a lot of thoughts...

軽い気持ちで読み始めましたがはまりました。ほんわかしている絵柄と主人公や取り巻く登場人物達それぞれの人生にも触れながらお話が進み共感させられました。

I started reading it with a light feeling, but I was addicted to it. The story progressed and made me sympathize with the warm, fuzzy pattern and the lives of the main character and surrounding characters.

続きが楽しみ！

I'm looking forward to the continuation!

タイトルがタイトルなのでよくあるHなのかと思ってたんですがリアルの、等身大の大人の恋で共感して応援したくなって最初は購入するつもりはなかったんですが引き込まれてつい買ってしまいました。これからも買います！

Since the title is the title, I was wondering if it was a common H, but at first I didn't intend to buy it because I wanted to sympathize and support it with a real, life-size adult love, but I was drawn in and just bought it. I will continue to buy it!

最高です(語彙力

It's the best (vocabulary

既婚子持ちアラサーが読みました。忘れていた大切な気持ちを思い出した(苦笑)くらい、心理描写が細かくて…セリフもだけど、セリフのないシーンも含め…めちゃくちゃ感情移入しちゃいました！キュンキュンがすごいです。鍵谷君が私のタイプってのもありますが…。作者様、ありがとうございます！

I read it by Alassar, who has married children. The psychological depiction was so detailed that I remembered an important feeling I had forgotten (wry laugh)... including the lines and scenes without dialogue... I was so empathized! Kyun Kyun is amazing. There is also the fact that Kagitani is my type... Thank you, author!

漫画大好き、毎日のようにネットのお試しをちょこちょこ読んでる私ですが、3年に1度くらい続きが読みたすぎて即購入する漫画に出会います。まさにその出会いでした！！！何度読み返してもキュンキュンが止まりません。作者様、こんな素敵なお話を描いてくださってありがとう！！！

I love comics, and I read online trials here and there every day, but once every 3 years, I read too many comics and immediately buy them. That was exactly the encounter!!! I can't stop reading it over and over again. Thank you, author, for drawing such a wonderful story!!!

ピュアな主人公

A pure protagonist

主人公カップルの素朴さ、純粋さに癒されています。主人公だけでなく、周辺の登場人物の表情と細やかな心の動きが伝わってきます。人物によって視点が変わるのが特に面白いです。ストーリーの展開もほどよいテンポで、伏線もよく練られていて、味わうことができる作品です。板倉先生、素敵な作品をありがとうございます。次巻も心待ちにしています。

I am healed by the simplicity and purity of the main character couple. Not only the main character, but also the expressions and detailed movements of the surrounding characters are conveyed. It's especially interesting that people change their point of view. The story unfolds at just the right tempo, and the foreshadowing is well-planned, so it's a work you can enjoy. Thank you, Professor Itakura, for your wonderful work. I'm looking forward to the next volume.

胸キュンです

My heart is pounding

登場人物目線でストーリーが書かれています。皆それぞれが悩みながらも生活しているんだなーと実感しました。中でも主人公2人の距離感に胸キュンが止まりません。続きが楽しみです。

The story is written from the perspective of the characters. I realized that everyone is living their lives despite their own worries. Above all, I can't stop being moved by the sense of distance between the two main characters. I'm looking forward to the continuation.

It's good to be able to see humans

人生勉強になって面白いです。心にささることがたくさん。作者さんと考え方があうのかも。普通の日常でありながら、涙しながら見ちゃいます。

It's been an interesting way to learn about life. There are so many things in my heart. Maybe the author's way of thinking fits. Even though it's a normal everyday life, I watch it with tears.

There is such a thing. It's not about appearance or specs... is love really strange “why this person??” I think about it later... even when they fight and yell at each other, they want to understand... right?

This review contains spoilers. 主人公だけスポットが当たっているのではなく、登場人物それぞれの話があり、とても面白いです。それぞれ等身大の悩みがあり、うんうん、と頷けるところが良いです。香坂くん、頑張って！応援してるぞ。とりあえず正社員を目指そう。

This review contains spoilers. Not only the main character is in the spotlight, there are stories for each character, which is very interesting. They each have life-size problems, and it's nice to be able to nod yeah. Good luck, Kosaka-kun! I'm rooting for you. For now, let's aim to be a full-time employee.

何気なく読み始めたらどハマり！色々な人たちの恋や仕事事情がリアルでと〜っても刺さります。年代や立場によって、悩みも本当にそれぞれだよなぁと。時代の切り取り方がとても上手だと思います。ドラマ化したらすごく面白いだろうなぁと思ってて、アテレコしながら読んでます笑レビュー書くの初めてで、作家さんを応援したくて書きました！続き楽しみにしてます！！

Once I started casually reading it, I was addicted to it! The love and work situations of various people are real, and it really stings me. I think they really have different concerns depending on age and position. I think they're very good at cutting through the times. I thought it would be really interesting if it were made into a drama, so I read it while teleco lol This is my first time writing a review, and I wrote it because I wanted to support the writer! I'm looking forward to the continuation!!

最高...

The best...

This review contains spoilers. 6巻最高です。初エッチのところは読みながら涙が溢れました。性経験がどうこうのテーマではなく、好きな人と心身で繋がる幸せをとても丁寧に描写しているところが本当に素敵です。香坂さんと鍵谷くん、いろいろ考えちゃう二人が、もうただただ引き合って甘々になってほしいです。

This review contains spoilers. Volume 6 is the best. Tears overflowed while reading The First Time I Had Sex. It's really nice that it's not about sexual experiences, and it's really nice that it so carefully depicts the happiness of being mentally and physically connected to someone you like. I want Kosaka-san and Kagitani-kun, the two people who think about a lot of things, to just ask each other out and be sweet.
