音が出たらいいのに

I wish it would make a sound

幼児の時から、森に捨てられていたピアノを自己流で弾いていた小学生カイが、天才ピアニストとして成長していくお話です。カイの自由な心とピアノと生き方に惹かれます。ピアノの英才教育を受けてきた修平との友情や、修平の心の葛藤も興味深いです。ピアノを弾くカイは、とてもきれいで、素敵で、音が出るマンガだったらいいのにと思います。７月に公開された映画は、小学生時代まで。カイと修平がショパンコンクールに出場するところから、１１月からモーニングに連載再開。

It's a story about elementary school student Kai, who has been playing a piano abandoned in the woods in her own way since she was a toddler, and grows up as a genius pianist. I'm attracted to Kai's free mind, piano, and way of life. The friendship with Shuhei, who has received gifted piano education, and Shuhei's emotional conflict are also interesting. I wish Kai, who plays the piano, was a very beautiful, nice, and sounding manga. Movies that were released in July continued until elementary school. From where Kai and Shuhei participated in the Chopin Competition, serialization resumed on Morning from November.

感動作

Impressive work

This review contains spoilers. 久しぶりに絵がいいとかきれいとか、スカッとするとか、溺愛がいいとかではなく、本当に心から感動しました。ピアノの天才少年　である海の成長ストーリーです。前半は小学5年生で、8巻以降は成長して高校2年生になっています。才能を見出され、色々な場を経験し通り過ぎて、素晴らしいピアニストになるまでのお話です。童話かと思うようなストーリー部分もあり、とにかく目が離せないお話です。

This review contains spoilers. I was really moved from the bottom of my heart because it wasn't that the picture was good or beautiful, or that I was refreshed, or that I was fond of it after a long time. This is a story about the growth of Umi, a boy who is a genius piano player. I was in the 5th grade of elementary school in the first half, and after volume 8, I grew up and became a 2nd year high school student. This is a story about how he discovered his talent, experienced and passed through various places, and became a great pianist. There is also a story part that makes you think it's a children's story, so it's a story you can't take your eyes off.

天才meets天才

Genius Meets Genius

音楽家の子として生まれた天才と、天性の才能の塊のような天才。そして大きな挫折を知る天才。ピアノの世界でシビアに生きる彼らだけれど、どこか暖かい。環境も生い立ちも超えた音楽の豊かさが心地よい作品でした。

A genius born as the child of a musician, and a genius who is like a natural mass of talent. And a genius who knows big setbacks. They live a severe life in the piano world, but it's kind of warm. It was a comfortable work with the richness of music that transcended both the environment and upbringing.

ピアノの天才

Piano genius

天才演奏家の成長物語はあらすじはどれも似たようなものになるから、主人公の造形がキモだと思うんだけど、カイは境遇のわりにひねくれてなくて応援したくなるタイプだよね。でも、生活環境が酷すぎるなあ。地獄だよ、これじゃ。

The synopsis of all the coming-of-age stories of genius performers are similar, so I think the main character's modeling is the key, but Kai isn't perverse due to circumstances, so I'm the type that makes you want to cheer for him. But the living conditions are just too bad. It's hell, this is it.

異端ではなかった

It wasn't heresy

森の中に打ち捨てられたピアノをおもちゃにして育った絶対音感を持つピアノの野生児。どんな異端の物語になるのか期待したが、コンクールが最終目標の正統派のクラッシックのお話だった。

A wild piano boy with an absolute sense of sound who grew up using a piano abandoned in the woods as a toy. I was expecting what kind of heretical story it would be, but it was an orthodox classic story with a competition as the ultimate goal.

I like it

成長ストーリーと世界が舞台で知らなかった世界を知れるので面白かったです。森のピアノというタイトルで惹かれました。

It was interesting because I was able to learn about coming-of-age stories and worlds I didn't know on the world stage. I was drawn to the title Mori no Piano.

演奏会シーンに感動

I'm moved by the concert scene

アニメから漫画を読んでみようと思いましたが絵柄がアニメと違い最初は戸惑いました。花田少年史の作者さんだよなあーとギャッブを感じましたが、どんどん作品に引き込まれていきました。全巻揃えようと思っています。

I thought I'd start reading comics from anime, but the design was different from anime, and I was confused at first. I felt that the author of Hanada Shonen Shi was a gag, but I was drawn more and more into the work. I'm thinking of getting all the volumes ready.

音楽ものはもともと好きですが、こちらはクラシックと親しみやすい表現が独特で、そこが読みがいあります。ただ、教育も受けずにいきなり超絶技巧って。。。天才ってそういうものなのかもしれないけど、そこはちょっとご都合主義に思えました。

I've always liked music, but classical and friendly expressions are unique here, and that is a good read. However, without receiving any education, it suddenly became transcendental skill... Maybe geniuses are like that, but that seemed a bit convenient.

自分の中で読むべき漫画リストに入っていた漫画の１つで、とりあえず3巻まで読んだが、メチャ惹きつけられる。のだめほどふざけていなく、かといってメチャ真面目な感じでもなく、でも教わることのあるストーリー。

It's one of the comics that was on my list of comics I should read, and I've read up to 3 volumes, but I'm really attracted to it. It's a story that's not so playful, and even though it doesn't feel really serious, there's something to be learned.

アニメとはまた違った感じです。

It's a different feeling from anime.

アニメで興味を持ち、読んでみました。アニメより、幼少の描写はエグいのですが、余り悲壮感はなく主人公の逞しさが際立っていると思いました。

I was interested in anime and read them. The depiction of childhood is worse than the anime, but there wasn't much sense of sadness, and I thought the strength of the main character stood out.

話がしっかりしてるので気にならなくなってくる。カイの周りの人も魅力的でどんどん読み進めてしまう。セリフがかなり少ないので頑張れば一気読みも出来そう。

The conversation is solid, so I don't get bothered. The people around Kai are also fascinating and keep reading. There are quite few lines, so if you do your best, you'll be able to read them all at once.
