私の心の安定剤

my heart stabilizer

あまりに大好きすぎて、定期的に読み直してしまう作品。自分にとって食べることは元から大好きなことだったけれど、この作品を読んで誰とどのようにどんなものを食べるかがより大切になった。シロさんがケンジに少しでも喜んで欲しいと思いながら(でもその気持ちを隠しながら)買い物をして料理をする姿が本当に好き。これから2人がどんな老後を過ごすのか、楽しみでならない。元気のない時や荒んだ時に読めば、心が穏やかになる私の心の安定剤のような優しい作品。

I love this work so much that I reread it regularly. Eating has always been my favorite thing, but after reading this work, it became more important who and how to eat what kind of food. I really like seeing Shiro-san shopping and cooking while hoping Kenji would be even a little happy (but hiding that feeling). I can't help but look forward to seeing what kind of old age the two of them will spend in the future. It's a gentle work that calms my mind if I read it when I'm not energetic or when it's rough, and it's like a stabilizer for my mind.

生きることに前向きになれる

You can be positive about living

This review contains spoilers. 読むたび思う感想です。日々を暮らしている二人の姿を見ていると生きることに前向きになれます。この二人も生きているんだ。私も明日も生きていこう、みたいな。あとこれも毎度思っていますが、ご飯作りのモチベーションを上げてくれる神作品だと思ってます。よしなが先生本当にありがとうございます。あと今巻の婚姻届のくだりはめちゃくちゃときめきました。これからも二人に幸あれ！

This review contains spoilers. It's an impression I think every time I read it. Seeing the two people living every day makes me feel positive about living. These two are also alive. It's like I'm going to live tomorrow too. Also, I think about this every time, and I think it's a divine work that motivates me to make meals. Thank you so much, Professor Yoshinaga. Also, the marriage registration story in this volume was insanely exciting. Good luck to both of you in the future!

愛とはなんでしょうか？

What is love?

美味しい食べ物を食べた時あの人と食べたい　これはあの人が好きな味だと思う時それは愛だと思います　この作品にはBLという枠組みだけでなく愛とはなんでしょうか？といつも問われている気がします　シロさんもケンジもだいぶ年を重ねてきて　「これだったら元気が出る」「これは好きな味」というセリフを見ると愛だなと痛烈に感じます　あったかい作品です　これを読んで愛する人を思い浮かべて欲しいと思います

When I eat delicious food I want to eat it with that person when I think this is a taste that person likes, I think it's love. In this work, not only does it have a BL framework, but what is love? I feel like I'm always being asked. Shiro-san and Kenji have been getting older, and when I see the lines “I'll cheer up if this is the case” and “This is my favorite flavor,” I feel a painful feeling that it's love. It's a warm work. I want you to think of someone you love when you read this

料理をつくりたくなる

Makes me want to cook

今後の人生を安泰にする為に節約と貯金にいそしむ主人公シロさん（職業弁護士）と、今を楽しむをモットーお金は貯めないケンジ（職業美容師）のダブル主人公。同棲しているゲイ二人の物語。シロさんの買い物の仕方や料理風景、レシピがとても実用的。自分もやってみようと思える。そして、シロさんとシロさんの作る料理を美味しく食べる、好き嫌いのないケンジとの食事風景に心が温まります。二人だけでなく周囲のキャラクターの食事風景やレシピ、人間関係の変化もあり、巻数を重ねる毎に親しみを覚えたり新しい発見もある漫画です。オススメ！

The double protagonist is the main character, Shiro-san (professional lawyer), who is involved in saving and saving money in order to secure his future life, and Kenji (professional hairdresser), whose motto is to enjoy the present and doesn't save money. A story about two gay people living together. Shiro-san's way of shopping, cooking scenes, and recipes are very practical. I think I'll try it myself. Also, the food scene with Shiro-san and Kenji, who has no likes or dislikes, warms my heart. It is a comic where there are not only two people, but also changes in eating scenes, recipes, and relationships between the surrounding characters, and each time the number of volumes is repeated, people feel familiar and make new discoveries. I recommend it!

ずっと続いてほしい作品です

It's a work I want to keep going

This review contains spoilers. よしながふみ先生の作品は最初に読んだのはどれだったかしら？と思うくらい、ほぼほぼ網羅しています。BLから少女まんが、女性マンガ、青年漫画、本当にたくさんのジャンルの作品を精力的に世に送り出している作家の1人です。先生の魅力的なところは、心情の表現力が卓越していながら、それをさらっと描かれる作風です。さらに独特の間があります。そして圧倒的な知識。こちらの作品は連載当初から読んでいます。最初は料理まんがかな、淡々とした日常を描いているな、新しい視点の作品かな、と思いました。まさかこんな長く続くとは思いませんでした。シロさんが料理を作っていくシーンはモノローグが入りながら料理を完成させていくのが、読んでいてまるでお料理テレビを見ているような感覚になります。実際にまんがを読んでご飯を作った方は沢山いらっしゃると思います。わたしもハンバーグの作り方を参考にしたのをきっかけに今でもお世話になっています。2人のやりとりが読んでいて、ほっこりきます。食事の大切さを教えていただきました。お料理以外にも、人が生きていくのは1人では生きられない事、家族との事、年を重ねていく事、いろいろなものが作品で描かれています。ずっと続いてほしい作品です。

This review contains spoilers. What was the first work you read by Yoshinaga Fumi sensei? It's almost covered, to the extent that I think. She is one of the artists who is energetically bringing out works in so many genres, from BL to girls' manga, and youth comics. What is appealing about the teacher is that while his expressive power of emotion is outstanding, he is able to draw it without hesitation. There's an even more unique space. And overwhelming knowledge. I've been reading this work since the beginning of the series. At first, I thought it was a cooking manga, and it was a work from a new perspective, depicting plain everyday life. I never thought it would last this long. In the scene where Shiro-san cooks food, the monologue is included while completing the dish, and it feels like watching cooking TV while reading it. I think there are a lot of people who actually read manga and made meals. I also learned how to make a hamburger steak, and I'm still indebted to you. I'm reading the conversation between the two, and it makes me feel relaxed. They taught me the importance of meals. Other than cooking, various things are depicted in the work, such as people not being able to live alone, their families, and getting older. It's a work I want to keep going for a long time.

いつも助かってます！

It always helps!

This review contains spoilers. 紙のコミックスを読了。サザエさん時空ではなく時間が進み、コロナ禍等の時世もぼかしながらも反映させているのが特徴的だと感じました。夕飯のネタが尽きたら今作をバーっと捲りアイデアを貰ってます。いつもありがとう！

This review contains spoilers. I've read the paper comic. Sazae-san, I felt that it is characteristic that time progresses, not time and space, and reflects times such as the COVID-19 pandemic while blurring it. When I ran out of ingredients for dinner, I rolled up this work and got ideas. Thanks as always!

引き込まれる

I'm drawn in

This review contains spoilers. お試しで読み始めたら、どんどん引き込まれて読んでいました。年齢が足踏みする作品が多い中、年月を経ていくのも読み込んでしまう理由の１つかな？丁寧な食事、なかなか真似は出来ませんが(汗)レシピもあってその点もおすすめです。

This review contains spoilers. When I started reading it as a trial, I was drawn more and more into it. While there are many works where age is at a standstill, I wonder if the passage of time is also one of the reasons they are read? It's a careful meal, and it's hard to imitate (sweat), but there are recipes, so I recommend that too.

グルメ漫画は色々あれど

There are a lot of gourmet comics

グルメ漫画は色々あれど、圧倒的に一番これが大好きです。一つには料理の描写が非常に丁寧で私好みのものがたくさん載ってること。きっとよしながふみ先生お料理上手だしお好きなんだろうなと感じます。そしてキャラクターも好き。シゴデキで家事能力も高いのに、ちょっとケチで考え出したら止まらない不器用なシロさん。のんびりやでちょっと抜けてるとこもあるけど、優しくて察しも良くて素直なケンジ。日本住まいのゲイカップルという多少のハードルを抱えながらも日々一生懸命生きている2人の毎日が大好きです。

There are many gourmet comics, but by far I love this one the most. One thing is that the descriptions of the dishes are very careful, and there are a lot of things I like. I'm sure Yoshinaga Fumi sensei is a good cook and I feel like her. I also like the characters. Even though she is stubborn and has a high housework ability, Shiro-san is clumsy and can't stop once she comes up with a bit of a stingy idea. There are places where he is laid-back and a little lacking, but Kenji is kind, intuitive, and straightforward. I love the everyday life of these two gay couples living in Japan who are working hard every day despite having some hurdles.

I'm addicted to the drama adaptation

ドラマ化でハマりました。BLでもお料理漫画だけでもなく、日常のあれこれに毎回ほんわか心が温かくなります。すごく癒される。大奥も大好きだけどよしながふみさん天才！

I'm addicted to the drama adaptation. It's not just BL or cooking comics, it warms my heart every time I feel warm and fuzzy. It's so healing. I love Ooku too, but Yoshinaga Fumi is a genius!

読後の調理に影響あり

There is an effect on cooking after reading

This review contains spoilers. ストーリーがとても良い。登場人物みんな素敵。ジルベールが可愛いすぎる。わかるよ！小日向さん！原作はもちろんのこと、ドラマも大好きです。シロさんのオイル２品ルールや味のバランス、緑黄色野菜入れるなど、食卓に影響をかなり受けております。そして、シノさんのように作ったあとどうだ、筧史朗！と私も心の中で思ってます。

This review contains spoilers. The story is very good. All the characters are wonderful. Gilbert is too cute. I get it! Kohinata-san! I love dramas, not to mention the original story. The dining table has been influenced quite a bit by Shiro's two-product oil rule, balance of flavors, and the inclusion of green and yellow vegetables. And how about after making it like Shino-san, Shiro Kakeki! That's what I think in my heart too.

一緒にいてくれる人に感謝したくなる

I want to thank the people who are with me

ゲイカップルの日常を描いていますが、本当に日常すぎて癒されます。あーこんな会話確かに私もするなと思いながら読んでます。と同時に作中での登場人物がちゃんと年齢を重ねていくので、それに付随する問題もたくさん起こる…でもこれも日常なんですよね。もちろんその中には誰かの生や死もあって、そこには後悔も悲しみも嬉しさも楽しさも全てが混在しています。でも、だからこそ誰かと共に生きるということ、大切な人とご飯を食べるということの尊さを気付かせてくれる、そんな作品だと思います。出会えてよかったと思う漫画です。ぜひいろいろな人に読んでもらいたいです！

It depicts the everyday life of a gay couple, but it's really too everyday and it's soothing. Oh, I'm reading it while thinking that it's true that I shouldn't have this kind of conversation either. At the same time, the characters in the story age properly, so many problems associated with it also occur... but this is also everyday life, isn't it? Of course, that includes someone's life and death, and regret, sadness, joy, and fun are all mixed there. But I think that's why it's such a work that makes me realize the preciousness of living with someone and eating with loved ones. It's a comic that I'm glad I came across. I definitely want all kinds of people to read it!

主人公の人生に並走するように読み続けられる。歳も取るし、環境の変化もある。それでも日々の生活にある素敵な一面が見られる他にない漫画。大ファンになりました。最高！！！

You can keep reading as if running in parallel with the main character's life. We are getting older, and our environment is changing. Still, it's a comic like no other where you can see a wonderful side of everyday life. I became a big fan. awesome!!!

ここ最近の話は特に泣いてしまう

Recent stories in particular make me cry

This review contains spoilers. 24巻で思いもよらなかった事が起こってショックで…。１巻から読み返しました。そういえばお母さん、初期は和装だったんだよね。１巻の時からみんな年齢重ねてビジュアルもかなり変化してますね。時間の経過がすごく感じられました。23巻も素敵な話で泣いたし、ここ最近の話は本当に涙腺にくる話が多くて、何度読み返しても泣いてしまいます。

This review contains spoilers. I was shocked when something unexpected happened in volume 24... I reread it from volume 1. Speaking of which, my mom was in kimono in the beginning. Since volume 1, everyone has aged and the visuals have changed quite a bit. I really felt the passage of time. Volume 23 was a wonderful story and I cried, and there are a lot of stories that really make my eyes cry no matter how many times I read them over and over again.

素敵な関係

A nice relationship

This review contains spoilers. 同性カップルの日常を描いた話ですが、恋愛に偏りすぎず、それぞれが仕事を頑張っていて、おいしいごはんを楽しみにしている日常がリアルで良かったです。お互いを大事に思っていて支え合っていつまでも生きていくのだろうな、と思える素敵な関係の2人を見守りたいです。

This review contains spoilers. It's a story about the everyday life of a same-sex couple, but it was nice that they weren't too biased towards love, and the everyday life of each working hard and looking forward to delicious meals was real. I want to watch over these two people who have a wonderful relationship where they care about each other, support each other, and wonder how long they will live.
