どうなるの！！

What's going to happen!!

This review contains spoilers. 再会もの。高校の卒業式にキスされて拒否されて、自分がゲイだと気づいてからあの頃のような屈託のない明るい生き方が出来なくなってしまった主人公はゲイなのだから楽しまなくちゃ、人に求められるのは気分がいい、もう誰かに拒否されたくないと表面上だけ繕っ多様に生きていますが偶然あの時のキスをしてきたクラスメイトの朝日と5年ぶりの再会をします。芸能人になっていた彼はスキャンダルのために記者に追われ酒が回ってしまっている状態で主人公にも気が付きません。自分はこんなところに堕ちているのに、、、朝日に復讐を仕掛けつつ過去の思い出も。哀しい。完結しているようなので読みたいと思います。

This review contains spoilers. reunion stuff. The main character, who was kissed at her high school graduation ceremony and was rejected and unable to live a carefree and bright way of life like those days after realizing she was gay, is gay, so she has to have fun, and it feels good to be wanted by others, and she lives in a diverse way only superficially if she doesn't want to be rejected by anyone anymore, but she accidentally reunites with her classmate Asahi for the first time in 5 years. Having become an entertainer, he was chased by reporters due to a scandal and alcohol was going around, and the main character didn't notice either. Even though I have fallen to a place like this... I have memories from the past while taking revenge on the Asahi. That's sad. It seems like it's complete, so I'd like to read it.

こういう長年すれ違ってる両片想い、友達を好きになってしまったと苛まれる系大好きです！特に後者はBLの醍醐味って感じします。

I love this kind of unrequited love that has crossed paths for so many years, and people are annoyed when they fall in love with their friends! In particular, I feel that the latter is the real thrill of BL.

久しぶりのアタリ

Atari after a long absence

This review contains spoilers. 切ないスレ違いと濃厚なH。登場人物が魅力的です。卒業のシーンから始まりますが、ちょっと笑えるシーンと胸を抉るような切ないやりとりが凄くしっかり描かれていて久しぶりに買って良かったと思えて思わず一気にまとめ買いしてしまいました。復讐から愛になるまではそう長くないけどHシーンも私は大好きですね。悶える一冊です(笑)

This review contains spoilers. A sad thread and a rich H. The characters are fascinating. It starts with the graduation scene, but the slightly laughable scene and the sad exchange that made me break my heart were drawn so well that I thought it was good that I had bought it after a long absence, so I unintentionally bought them all at once. It's not that long from revenge to love, but I love the H scene too. It's a book that makes me feel agony (laughs)

good

途中少し目頭が熱くなってしまった。高校から二人どんだけ遠回りしたの〜！ずっと忘れられないでお互い別々の道を歩いて、また出会えて良かった。長髪の朝日カッコイイ！ゆず君可愛い〜！

My inner eyes got a little hot along the way. How many detours have the two of them taken since high school! We'll never forget each other, walked separate ways, and it was great to meet again. Asahi with long hair is so cool! Yuzu-kun is so cute!

良かった！

That was great!

This review contains spoilers. 合冊の下巻を待ちきれず、ペーパーで読みました。後半は、高校時代と現在が見れて、前半以上に内容ぎっしりで良かったです。晃さんは元彼、というより実祥を救ってくれた人かな。確かにどういう関係かは説明しづらいですね。朝日もいいけど、私は勇気を出して実祥に会いに来てくれて、男前な発言をしてくれたゆづくんに救われた！

This review contains spoilers. I couldn't wait for the second volume of the combined book, so I read it on paper. In the second half, I was able to see my high school days and now, and I'm glad it was more full of content than the first half. Akira is probably the person who saved Sansho rather than his former boyfriend. It's certainly hard to explain what kind of relationship it is. Asahi is good too, but I gathered my courage and came to see Sansho, and I was saved by Yuzunkun who made a handsome statement!

幸せいっぱい！

Full of happiness!

This review contains spoilers. 合冊版の下巻を待てずに最終話まで読みました！ホントに良かった～。実祥がこれ以上傷つく所を見たくないと思ってましたが、大丈夫でした。高校の時の朝日の行為で、実祥がどれだけ傷ついて、どういう生き方をしてきたかを朝日が知って良かった。自分の事でいっぱいになって相手を傷つけてしまう作品てあるけど、結果ハピエンになりました、じゃなくて、自分の行動でどれだけ傷つけていたのかをきちんとわからせる所を描いてくれると、読んでいて納得できます。朝日も辛かったしその分この先何があっても、っていう強い想いが伝わって安心しました。実祥がずっと言いたかった言葉が言えて本当によかった。作者様好きです。

This review contains spoilers. I read until the final episode without waiting for the second volume of the combined edition! I'm really glad ~. I didn't want to see Sansho get hurt any more, but it was fine. It was good for Asahi to know how much Sansho was hurt by Asahi's actions in high school, and what kind of way of life he has lived. There are works that are full of things about myself and hurt others, but the result is happy, and I'm convinced after reading that they draw a place where I can clearly understand how much I was hurting by my own actions. The rising sun was also painful, and I was relieved to hear that strong feelings were conveyed no matter what happened in the future. It was really nice to be able to say the words Sanesho had always wanted to say. I like the author.

Cliche, but I like c

Cliche, but I like Cliches?

This is the tipic story of a guy who doesn't know that he is gay, and breaks his beloved one's heart. Sadly I didn't read the complete story because I'm lacking money ? but I can bet you will laugh and cry with this story as I did with many similar (and I won't stop, for sure), so I just wanted to add that I don't actually understand japanese, but the graphics were plenty enough for me to understand. And if you also like deep and emotive cliches, then this is your story ?

擦れ違い！しかしそれがいい！

That's a mistake! But that's good!

この作者さんの作品はいつも読んでますが、擦れ違いと両片思いをたくさん描いてくれてて大好きです。今回もスタートから擦れ違いですね！好き！（笑）両片思いが大好物の人には堪らないかと。受けの気持ちが分かるだけに切ないし辛いですが、それがいい。純真だった心も体もボロボロになっている受け、攻めは自分が逃げたことで起こった事実を受け止めて欲しいですね。攻めにはたっぷり後悔して贖罪して欲しいです。受けの子は幸せになって満たされて欲しい（空虚な生き方になってて可哀想）

I read this author's work all the time, and I love it because it depicts a lot of friction and unrequited love. We had a rough start this time too! I like it! (Laughter) I wonder if my unrequited love would be unbearable for someone I love. It's sad and painful just because I understand the feeling of acceptance, but that's good. I want you to accept the fact that your innocent mind and body are in tatters, and the attack happened because you ran away. I want them to remorse and atone for the attack. I want the recipient child to be happy and satisfied (it's a pity that it's an empty way of life)
