ドラクエあんま知らなくても楽しい

Dorakue is fun even if you don't know much

This review contains spoilers. 金田一先生の作品が元々好きで、ドラクエはそんなに通ってないけど読み始めました。主人公の2人のお話ももちろんいいんですが、途中から始まるそれ捨てが…！百合…！同棲…！ほのぼの！って感じでとてもいいです。さつきくんと同じような反応をしています。どのストーリーもほのぼの楽しく読めます。にっこりしてホッとできるような作品です。

This review contains spoilers. I originally liked Kindaichi sensei's works, and I started reading Dorakue even though I haven't gone there that much. Of course, the story of the two main characters is fine too, but it starts halfway and throws it out...! lily...! cohabitation...! Heartwarming! It feels like that, and it's very nice. I'm having a similar reaction to Satsuki. Every story is heartwarming and fun to read. It's a work that makes you smile and feel relieved.

癒されました…

I was healed...

This review contains spoilers. 最新刊でも作中の世界と作中作品のリンク感の心地よさに大変癒されました。ありがとうございます。何度も読み返して楽しませていただきます。

This review contains spoilers. Even in the latest edition, I was very healed by the comfort of the link between the world in the story and the work in the story. Thank you very much. I will enjoy reading it over and over again.

ほんといいなぁ〜

that's really nice

実際のネトゲ、ドラクエXを題材にしたラブコメなのですが本当にみんなかわいすぎるーーー！！ほっこりできる作品です！ある程度はドラクエのことを知っていた方が楽しめると思いますが、知らなくても読めると思います！

It's a romantic comedy based on actual netoge, Dorakue X, but they're all really too cute!! It's a work that makes you feel relaxed! I think you'll enjoy it if you know Dorakue to some extent, but I think you can read it even if you don't know it!

とてもかわいいお話です。主人公の二人の関係性が素敵ですーこんなルームシェアは楽しそうでいいですよね〜趣味が同じって！！同じ趣味でも楽しみ方はそれぞれなのもとてもいいですー！！！！！ドラクエ、やりたくなっちゃいますね

It's a very cute story. The relationship between the two main characters is wonderful - it's nice that this kind of room sharing seems fun ~ they have the same hobbies!! It's so nice to have the same hobbies but different ways to enjoy them!!!! It makes me want to play Dracue

かわいくてほっこり

Cute and relaxed

ゲームを通して仲良くなるって夢があっていい。ドラクエ、8までしかやっていないが、ネットでつながるのは面白いと思える人にはいいのかも。自分はめんどくさいのでオフでのみ完結するゲームがいいですが。ドラクエしらなくても全然楽しめて、ほっこりします。

It's okay to have a dream of becoming good friends through games. Maybe it's good for people who have only played Drake up to 8, but who think it's interesting to connect on the internet. It's troublesome for me, so I like games that can only be completed when off. Even if you don't know Dorakue, you can enjoy it at all, and it makes you feel relaxed.

まったりだけど先が気になる

I'm relaxed, but I'm worried about the future

ドラクエ知らなくても楽しめます。でも、ドラクエしってるとクスッとなるところがたくさんあるかな？ドラクエ以外のゲームの小ネタもたまにあります。どこにでもいるって言ったら語弊があるかもしれないけどきっとこんな人いるんだろうなぁとか思います。

You can enjoy Dragon Quest even if you don't know it. But I wonder if there are a lot of places where I'm surprised when I play Dorakue? Occasionally, there are small stories about games other than Dorakue. There might be a misnomer if I say they are everywhere, but I'm sure there are people like this.

ドラクエオンラインやりたくなったよ

I want to play Dorakue Online

作者からドラクエ愛が伝わります。発売された時やっていたので、ゲームやっていた人は「あー分かる―」みたいな事があって笑えると思います。やってない人も普通にオンラインゲームで出会った男女の恋的なものが読める中々貴重な作品なんではないでしょうか。ゲームから絶対に出合いそうに無い二人が出会って、世界が広がるのっていいなぁって思えます、多分。この作者さんの作品は少女漫画好きなら間違いないです。

Love for Dorakue is conveyed from the author. I was doing it when it went on sale, so I think people who played the game would laugh at things like “ah, I understand...” I think it's a very valuable work where even people who haven't played can read romantic things about men and women who met normally in online games. I think it would be nice if two people who never seem to meet each other from the game meet and the world expands, probably. If you like girls' comics, this author's work is definitely a must.

志野田さんかわいいよ志野田さん

Shinoda-san is cute Shinoda-san

結婚子育ては人生におけるエンドコンテンツ！そのエンドコンテンツ、志野田さんとなら挑戦したいです……やとぉ〜！？俺かて志野田さんとやったら挑戦したいわ！俺の志野田さんはどこにおんねや！！ラブコメとしては非常に楽しく読めるんですが、登場人物全員心が綺麗で悪意がない平和なファンタジー世界なので、悪意で人格の大半が構成されてる私のような人間が読むと浄化されて塩の柱になります。聖書かな？

Marriage and child-rearing are the end content of life! I'd like to try that end content with Mr. Shinoda... wow!? If I did it with Shinoda, I'd like to try it out! Where is my Shinoda!! It's very fun to read as a romantic comedy, but since all the characters are in a peaceful fantasy world with a clean mind and no malice, read by a person like me, whose personality is mostly composed of malice, it is purified and becomes a pillar of salt. Is it the Bible?

とにかくリアル！

Anyway, it's real!

This review contains spoilers. オンゲ内でネカマの主人公（♂）が、ネナベの女の子と出会い、リアルでシェアハウスするお話。実際にありそうなお話で面白いです。私自身もDQXプレイヤーなので、たくさん共感できる所がありました。お話も絵柄もかわいらしくて好きです。

This review contains spoilers. This is a story where the main character of Necama (♂) meets a girl from Nenabe in Onge and shares a house in real life. It's an interesting story that actually seems likely. I'm a DQX player myself, so there were a lot of things I could sympathize with. I like the story and the design because they are cute.

I'm a Dorakue 10 user, so I understand the game description part! I enjoyed reading it. It makes me want to try an after-party or something.

ゲームに興味を持ったきっかけ

What got me interested in games

作者様がドラクエ大好きすぎてこの作品が生まれたそうなのですが、全くゲームしない私もこの作品を読んでるとやりたい！！って思いました。金田一先生の作品すべて読みましたが、特にこちらとラララは人生の中で大切なことがいっぱい詰まってて、好きなセリフも沢山です！好きなセリフ集作っちゃうくらい好き。自分にも相手にもまっすぐ向き合う登場人物たちが皆良いです！

It seems that the author loved Dorakue so much that this work was born, but even if I don't play games at all, I want to do it when I'm reading this work!! That's what I thought. I've read all of Kindaichi's works, but in particular, here and Lalala are filled with a lot of important things in life, and I like a lot of lines! I like it so much that I've made a collection of my favorite lines. The characters who face themselves and their opponents straight forward are all good!

ドラクエ10大好き作者さんの愛情籠った作

A work filled with love by the author who loves Dorakue 10

青年漫画枠でオンラインRPG(ドラクエ10)を題材にしたファンタジー(？)の決定版。ドラクエ10では可愛いプクリポという女子キャラのパウ(リアルでは、たくみ(男))。よくチームを組んでた厳つい男性キャラのゴローさんとシェアハウスするために待ち合わせをしたら、そこにいたのは苦手なギャル(死語？)女子(しかも可愛い)だった。。いつも読んでるBL枠でもネトゲでサシオフしたら鬼上司や人気俳優が来たりしちゃうんですけど、昔オンラインゲームしてた友にBL枠のネトゲのこと聞いたら、現実ではこんなことありえないよ〜って即答されたので、やっぱりこういう出会いはファンタジーなんでしょう。でも、作者さん間違いなくドラクエ10大好きなだけあって、ゲーム内世界、ストーリー、キャラ、コミュニティのこと等々とっても魅力的に描かれていて、オンラインRPG全くやったことない私もやってみたくなりますね。(間違いなくハマって人間生活送れなくなりそうなので止めておきます。。)現在8巻まで発売されていて、人生のリアルRPGにも共に踏み出してるふたり。まだまだ続きそうですね。作者さんの作品は大抵10巻完結なので、あと2巻かな。(ところでBL作家さんたちがたくさんされているのをTwitterでずっとみてて我慢できずにswitchとリングフィット、更にドラクエ11なるもの(オンラインじゃないよ！)を今更ですが買ってしまったので、レビュー速度が落ちたら、あ、、ハマってるな、、と察してください)

A fantasy based on an online RPG (Dorakue 10) in a youth comic frame (?) The definitive edition. Pow (in real life, Takumi (male)) is a cute female character named Pukripo in Dorakue 10. When I met up with Goro, a strict male character who often teamed up to share a house, what was there was a girl I didn't like (dead language?) She was a girl (and cute).. Even if it's in the BL frame I read all the time, demon bosses and popular actors will come if I get off in the BL frame, but when I asked my friend who used to play online games about the BL frame, they immediately answered that this kind of thing is impossible in reality, so after all, this kind of encounter is probably fantasy. However, the author definitely loves Dorakue 10, and the in-game world, story, characters, community, etc. are drawn so attractively that it makes me want to try it even if I've never played an online RPG. (I'm definitely going to stop being addicted to it because it seems like I won't be able to live a human life.) Currently, up to 8 volumes have been sold, and the two are both embarking on a real-life RPG of their lives. It looks like it's still going on. Most of the author's works have completed 10 volumes, so I think there are 2 more volumes. (By the way, I've been watching a lot of BL writers on Twitter, and I can't stand it, Switch, Ring Fit, and even Dorakue 11 (it's not online!) (I bought it now, so if the review speed drops, ah... I'm addicted to it... please guess)

好み

preference

作者買い！ドラクエ含め、ほとんどゲームして来なかったので私には分からない部分もあったりするけど、それを加味しても面白くて好きです！変に間延びしたりしないし、サクサク話が進んでいくところも好みです。

Buy the author! I've hardly played any games, including Dorakue, so there are parts I don't understand, but even if you take that into account, it's fun and I like it! I also like the fact that it doesn't get strangely delayed, and the story progresses quickly.

社会人ラブコメ漫画の最高峰では？

Isn't it the pinnacle of romantic comedy comics for working adults?

This review contains spoilers. 8巻まで読了。オンラインゲームを通じて仲良くなった友達と、ルームシェアをすることになり、共同生活をするうちに惹かれ合うという、今風の設定。1巻時点ではお互いを恋愛対象として見ていなかった二人が、共通の趣味を通じて順調に仲を深めていき、晴れて恋人になったかと思いきや、瞬く間に妊娠が発覚、入籍し、第一子を授かったのは、大変感慨深い。登場人物は善人揃い、波乱らしい波乱もなく、トントン拍子に進んでいくため、昼ドラ的展開を好む人たちは物足りなく感じるかもしれないが、「この二人は何があっても大丈夫だろう」という安心感を好む、いわゆる弱いオタクの方々は、きっと楽しめる作品だと思う。

This review contains spoilers. I've read up to 8 volumes. It's a modern setting where you'll share a room with friends you've become good friends with through online games, and you'll be attracted to each other while living together. I am very moved that the two, who had not seen each other as romantic partners at the time of volume 1, steadily deepened their relationship through common hobbies, and even though they thought they would have become lovers in the blink of an eye, their pregnancy was discovered, they were naturalized, and their first child was born. The characters are all good people, and since it progresses at a steady pace, people who like daytime dramas may feel unsatisfactory, but I think it's a work that so-called weak otaku people who like a sense of security that “these two people will be fine no matter what happens” will surely enjoy it.

このカップル、尊すぎる…！

this couple is too precious...!

This review contains spoilers. パウさんとゴローさんがくっついた時、思わず拍手した謎の民です…。『ゲームオタク』という共通点以外は何もかも真逆な二人だけど、ゲームを通して、そして共同生活を送っていくうちにどんどんゲーム仲間以上、ルームメイト以上の気持ちが芽生えていく二人の心情にもう胸キュンしまくり?ほんといい仕事すんな、ドラクエ……（号泣）まだ完結してないけど（というか完結してほしくない）、末永く二人で人生のクエストを進めていってほしいです！！

This review contains spoilers. They are mysterious people who clapped involuntarily when Pow and Goro stuck together... Other than what they have in common as “game otaku,” they are two people who are complete opposites, but through the game, and as they live a shared life, their feelings of more and more than game buddies and roommates develop more and more feelings, and I'm already thrilled with the feelings of the two of them, who are more and more than game buddies? It's a really good job, Drake... (crying) it hasn't been completed yet (or rather, I don't want it to be completed), but I want the two of them to proceed with life's quests for a long time!!

元気になれるユニークなラブストーリー

A unique love story that will cheer you up

一貫して明るく楽しい雰囲気が続き、元気になれます。ドラクエもゲームも全くやってこなかったのですが、楽しく話にはさまってくるので、うっかり始めてしまったほどです。

The atmosphere is consistently bright and fun, and you can cheer up. I didn't play Dorakue or the game at all, but it was so fun that I started it inadvertently.

ドラクエXやりたくなるマンガ

Dorakue X is a manga you'll want to do

こんなこと本当にあるのかな？マンガならではのお話なのかな？って思いながらも読み進めていくと、リアルな感じもあって、ドラクエXをゲームとしてだけでなく、そういう気の合う仲間と楽しむツールとしての魅力を伝えてくれるマンガなんだと思いました！オンラインゲームをそれほどガッツリしたことはなかったけど、これを読んだらやっぱりドラクエXをガッツリやってみようかな？って思っちゃいます！

I wonder if this really exists? I wonder if it's a story unique to manga? As I read on while thinking about it, it also had a realistic feel, and I thought it was a manga that conveys the appeal of Dorakue X not only as a game, but also as a tool to enjoy with like-minded friends! I've never been that serious about online games, but after reading this, maybe I'll give Dorakue X a go? That makes me think!

This review contains spoilers. I read them all together before it became a TV drama and I was really addicted to it. The continuation came out, so when I reread it for the first time in a long time, it's still interesting ‼ ︎ 2 people get so close and thrilled... the main character is herbivorous male representative! It's easy to get bogged down, but he's a really good kid and makes me want to cheer for him. Is that marriage and pregnancy in the latest edition ‼ ︎ amazing evolution (” °°)” the next volume is childbirth? I would like to watch over the happy future of the two of them like a relative's aunt! (>∀︎ <*)
