思い通りにいかない

It's not going the way I want

This review contains spoilers. この作品、展開が次はこーなるのだろうかという予定調和をことごとく裏切っていきます。可愛らしく美しいけれど壊れやすく儚い。美しい恐ろしさがとても素敵。独特の絵は読みづらさがあるが、この雰囲気を作り上げている大事なものです。

This review contains spoilers. This work and development completely betray the planned harmony as to whether this will happen next. Adorable and beautiful, yet fragile and ephemeral. The beautiful horror is so wonderful. The unique pictures are difficult to read, but they are important things that create this atmosphere.

最後まで見届けたい

I want to watch until the end

This review contains spoilers. 主人公の元々の性格やら環境から自分自身を変えようと頑張るけれど、それが空回りし続ける結果になってしまうのが自分を見ているようで辛い。が最後まで見届けたいと思う。

This review contains spoilers. I try my best to change myself from the main character's original personality and environment, but the result is that it continues to run idle, so it's painful to watch myself. I would like to watch it all the way to the end.

新感覚

A new sense

ストーリーも絵柄も新感覚で始めて味わう読後感でした。たくさんのキャラクターが出てきますが宝石の特徴を生かした性格や性質で感心します。謎も多く神秘的でどんどん引き込まれるのが気持ち良いです。衝撃的なことも起こるので覚悟をもって読み進めて下さい。

The story and design were new, and it was a feeling I first experienced after reading it. There are many characters that appear, but I'm impressed by their personalities and properties that make use of the characteristics of gemstones. There are many mysteries, and it's so mysterious, and it feels good to be drawn in more and more. Shocking things will also happen, so be prepared to read on.

色とりどりの宝石たちが美しい

The colorful jewels are beautiful

This review contains spoilers. 宝石の国は、表紙が目を引きキラキラしているので単行本を買うのもおすすめします。読まないときは部屋に飾るとおしゃれなインテリアになると思います。内容は読み進めると謎がわかってきて初めの方とは違った見方になるので兎に角読むことをおすすめします！アニメ版を見ていたときはフォスがほんの少し苦手でしたが、読んでいくとフォスだから主人公なのだなと思えるお話になっていました。この漫画は途中で読むのをやめるのは勿体ないと思うので是非全話読んでみてほしいですね！

This review contains spoilers. The cover of Jewel Country is eye-catching and sparkling, so I also recommend buying a book. I think it would be a stylish interior if you display it in your room when you're not reading it. As you read on, you'll understand the mystery, and you'll see it in a different way from the beginning, so I recommend reading it on a rabbit's horn! When I was watching the anime version, I was just a little bad at Foss, but as I read it, it became a story where I thought Foss was the main character. I think it would be a shame to stop reading this comic halfway through, so I definitely want you to read all the episodes!

アニメから

From anime

アニメを見てから漫画を読んだおかげか、髪色や声や名前が一致したので、楽しく読めたけど、漫画からだと読みにくい人もいるかも

Probably thanks to reading the manga after watching the anime, the hair color, voice, and names matched, so it was fun to read, but it may be difficult for some people to read if it's from the manga

It's a very interesting and mysterious view of the world, and I personally really like it. I came from anime, and the comics were really interesting too!

正直、個人的には漫画よりアニメのがオススメです。躍動感や、今までにない宝石がメインのストーリーというところが、見ていてとってもワクワクできる作品?そしてなにより皆が可愛すぎる…性別が無いという設定が素晴らしい！！

To be honest, I personally recommend anime over comics. The sense of dynamism and the fact that the main story is about jewels that have never been seen before is a work that is very exciting to watch? And above all, everyone is so cute... the setting where there is no gender is wonderful!!

困憊による自滅

Self-destruction due to exhaustion

寓話的でありＳＦぽくもあり宗教的な壮大さもあり少女漫画的な柔らかさもある唯一無二の魅力を持った漫画。読んでしまったらどうにも忘れがたく、脳の一隅に居場所を占められたように思えるほどに印象深い内容です。フォスはどうなってしまうんだろう。

A comic with a unique appeal that is allegorical, sci-fi, religious grandeur, and softness like a girls' manga. The content is so impressive that once you read it, it's hard to forget anything, and it seems like it took up a place in a corner of your brain. What will happen to Foss?

考えさせられます…

It makes me think...

28人の美しい戦う宝石たち。独特の世界観と幻想的な雰囲気が、さすがの市川先生作品。深い沼の中に自分からはまり込んでいくような、何とも言えない居心地の悪さが逆に癖になります。鬱展開つらい。しかしそこがイイ！これハッピーエンド絶対無理よね？？と予想しつつ、それでも未来に希望を持てる解答を提示してもらえるのではと期待してます。その答えは、現代を生きる私達への道標にだってなるかもしれない。そんな作品です。

28 beautiful fighting jewels. The unique worldview and fantastic atmosphere are truly Ichikawa-sensei's works. On the contrary, the indescribable discomfort of being stuck in a deep swamp becomes a habit. It's hard for depression to unfold. But that's good! this definitely can't have a happy ending, right?? While predicting this, I still expect that they will be presented with answers that give them hope for the future. The answer may even be a signpost for those of us living in the present day. It's such a work.

キレイ

beautiful

市川春子先生の短編がもともとすごく好きで、話題にもなっていたのでこの宝石の国も買いました。宝石達、それぞれのキャラクターしかり、話が進むにつれて明かされていく謎が何とも言えない。正直、心を強く持って読み進めないと、、、と思ってしまいます。とてもキレイなのに、とてもしんどい。何だろこの気持ちは。

I originally really liked Haruko Ichikawa's short story, and it was a hot topic, so I bought this gem country too. I can't say anything about the mysteries that are revealed as the story progresses, with only the jewels and their respective characters. To be honest, it makes me think that I have to keep a strong heart and read on... Even though it's so beautiful, it's also very tough. I wonder what this feeling is.

美しく繊細なだけじゃない

More than just beautiful and delicate

This review contains spoilers. 最新巻まで読んだ感想です。この一冊に情緒を狂わされた、性格も見た目も異なる宝石たちから必ずあなたの推しが見つかるはずです。そして、なんと言っても心穏やかな時間のある時に読んで欲しい。3巻あたりから胸が苦しくなっていきます。

This review contains spoilers. This is my impression of reading the latest volume. I'm sure you'll find your recommendation among the jewels with different personalities and appearances, who have been emotionally driven by this one book. And, after all, I want you to read it when you have a peaceful time. My heart starts to hurt from around volume 3.

みやすいなー

it's easy to see

This review contains spoilers. こちらの作品に関しましはメディア化決定というニュースを見て知りました。わたしはこちらの作品を読んでみて、さまざまな敵を仲間と一緒に倒していく姿に感動してしまいました。バトル系の異世界漫画好きな方におすすめです。

This review contains spoilers. I learned about this work by watching the news that it has been decided to make it into media. I read this work, and I was moved by how they defeated various enemies together with their friends. Recommended for those who like battle-related Isekai comics.

最早芸術

Earliest art

絵も美しい事は大前提、何より凄いのは世界観…！絵もお話も「漫画」と言うより「芸術作品」です。白黒パッキリ！the王道！が好きな方には中々おすすめしにくいですが、独特の世界観やファンタジーの中にもシリアスな小説や繊細な絵画がお好きな方には最高にオススメです！！

The main premise is that the pictures are beautiful, and what is more amazing than anything else is the view of the world...! Both pictures and stories are “works of art” rather than “comics.” Black and white packing! the royal road! It's hard to recommend it to those who like it, but I highly recommend it to those who like serious novels and delicate paintings in a unique world view and fantasy!

美麗！

beautiful!

とにかく眼福です！今までにこんな息を呑むマンガ有っただろうか、と感動するレベルに美しいです。白黒だからこそ細かく描けるんでしょうけど、一コマ一コマが綺麗。特に戦闘シーンや髪のキラキラ。宝石好きじゃなくても虜になります。

Anyway, it's a blessing for the eyes! It's so beautiful that I'm moved to wonder if there has ever been such a breathtaking manga. I think I can draw in detail because it's black and white, but every frame is beautiful. Especially the battle scenes and the glitter in the hair. Even if you don't like jewels, you'll be captivated.

火の鳥のしんどさ

How tough is a firebird

This review contains spoilers. 12巻を読み、しんどくて天井を仰いだ。手塚治虫の火の鳥が浮かんだ。短編も読んで作者の傾向も知ってたが、もう個人の幸せや願いという段階は過ぎたと思う。恐らく次の13巻108話で完結目指してると思うけど、なんとか救いがほしいの人間だから。お願い神様（作者様）

This review contains spoilers. I read volume 12 and looked up at the ceiling because it was hard. Tezuka Osamu's Firebird came to mind. I read short stories and knew the author's tendencies, but I think the stage of personal happiness and wishes has already passed. I think they're probably aiming to finish it with the next volume 13 episode 108, but that's because they're people who want to be saved somehow. Please God (author)

This review contains spoilers. 話が進めば進むほど主人公が主人公じゃなくなり、どんどん重くなってく。主人公が可愛そうでならないけど何か救いは無いのか先に読み進めてしまう。ほんとに続きが気になる

This review contains spoilers. As the story progresses, the main character is no longer the main character, and it gets heavier and heavier. The main character doesn't seem cute, but I read on to see if there's any salvation. I'm really worried about the continuation

一巻のピュアさが懐かしい

I miss the purity of volume one

This review contains spoilers. 最初のフォスの優しさとピュアさがもう悲しいとしか思えなくなりました。巻数が増えるごとに展開が悲しすぎて内臓にダメージをくらいます。それでも読んでしまうから市川さんの漫画って本当に魅力的。文字通りどんどん自分を失って人間のような化物になったフォスをこれからも見守っていきたいです。

This review contains spoilers. I can only think that the kindness and purity of the first Foss was already sad. As the number of volumes increases, the development becomes so sad that it damages internal organs. I still read them, so Ichikawa's comics are really fascinating. I want to keep watching over Foss, who literally lost more and more of himself and became a monster like a human.

宝石の個性豊か

The unique character of the gemstone

今まで宝石(鉱物)について興味なかったけどこの作品を読んでガラッと見え方がかわりました。複雑なストーリーの中でキラキラ光る宝石たちに心惹かれます。フォスがどこへ進んでいくのか…真実にどう答えていくのか…ページをめくるめが止まりません！?

Until now, I wasn't interested in gemstones (minerals), but after reading this work, the way I saw it completely changed. I'm fascinated by the jewels that sparkle in the intricate story. Where is Foss going... how is he going to answer the truth... I can't stop turning the pages!?
