純愛

pure love

哀しくて温かい話でした。それぞれの心情が分かりやすく感情移入しまくり?今どんなに幸せでも悲しくても辛くても時間は止まらないし地球は回り続けてく、悩みもがきゆっくりでも前に進むしかない。言葉にするには難しいけどとても感慨深いなぁと思いました。3巻まで読んでようやく話が完結するので1巻だけ楽しみたい方はお気をつけてください、絶対に3巻まで購入する事になります。読む人にとって受け取り方は違う結末でしょうが、最後の最後まで丁寧に描かれていて満足です。

It was a sad and heartwarming story. are you empathizing with each emotion in an easy-to-understand manner? No matter how happy, sad, or painful we are right now, time won't stop, the earth continues to rotate, and we have no choice but to move forward slowly even if we struggle with our worries. It's hard to put into words, but I thought it was very moving. After reading up to 3 volumes, the story is finally complete, so if you only want to enjoy 1 volume, please be careful; you will definitely buy up to 3 volumes. It's probably a different ending for those who read it, but I'm satisfied that it was carefully drawn until the very end.

大切な人を亡くして苦しんでる人へ

For those who are suffering from the loss of a loved one

恋人じゃなくても、妻、夫、親子、友達…色々な関係性の最愛の人を亡くし、由良のように忘れられずもがいている方々に読んで貰いたいなと。私はまだ当事者では無いけれど、傷ついた心を癒す難しさ、乗り越え方…本当に囚われてしまうのだろうな、でも変われるんだ。人の力、愛の力って凄いな、と本当に感慨深く読ませて頂きました。とても良い作品に出会えて感謝しています。有難うございました^_^。

Even if they aren't lovers, I want people like Yura who have lost loved ones from various relationships and are struggling not to be forgotten, to read it. I'm not involved yet, but the difficulty of healing a broken heart, how to overcome it... I wonder if I'll really be trapped, but things can change. I was really moved to read that the power of people, the power of love, is amazing. I am grateful to have found such a good work. Thank you very much ^_^.

ぜひ続編を…

Be sure to have a sequel...

This review contains spoilers. 幸せな終わり方なのに、読了後も色々な感情が湧き不思議と少し切なくもなるような、心がギュッとなる作品でした。空白の時間があったからこその現在があるとは分かってはいても、空いてしまった時間の分だけ2人には幸せに過ごしてほしい…本当に出会うことができて良かった作品です。

This review contains spoilers. Even though it ended in a happy way, it was a work that made my heart feel tight, and it felt strangely a little sad even after reading it. Even though I know that the present exists only because there was a blank time, I want the two of them to spend their free time happily... it's a work where I'm really glad we were able to meet.

感動！！

Impressed!!

This review contains spoilers. 一気に全巻読みました。読み終わった後も余韻が抜けず、、、2巻以降は1巻では予想できないドラマが待っていました！3巻は6年とかなりの時間が経ちましたが、由良にとっては乗り越えるにはあまりに辛い出来事でしたし、羽賀にとっては自分の気持ちと向き合い大人になる時間が必要でした。最後何の隔たりもなく愛し合うシーンは涙が出ました。ただ個人的には柊真に1番感情移入してしまい、2巻は読むのが辛かったです。どうか幸せになって欲しい、、、

This review contains spoilers. I read the whole volume at once. I couldn't lose the afterglow even after I finished reading it... there were dramas waiting for me after volume 2 that I couldn't predict in volume 1! Volume 3 has passed quite a bit of time, 6 years, but it was too painful for Yura to overcome, and Haga needed time to face her own feelings and become an adult. I burst into tears at the end of the scene where they love each other without any separation. However, personally, I empathized with Makoto Hiiragi the most, and it was hard to read volume 2. I want you to be happy...

This review contains spoilers. My best doting boyfriend, Yura-chan, is also so cute anyway. It was wonderful that everyone smiled at the end, Yura's changes in her feelings were conveyed, and Haga-kun seemed to wrap everything up, so wonderful. It's a work I'm glad I bought ‼️

純愛

pure love

心に残る純愛もの。何度も読み返して、感動する。最愛の人を突然失うって乗り越えられないくらい辛い出来事だもの。一緒に乗り越えてくれる人と出会えて本当によかったなーって思える。

Pure love that remains in my heart. I read it over and over again, and I'm moved. It's such a painful event that you can't overcome when you suddenly lose someone you love. I think it was really nice to meet someone who could overcome it together.

好き

私の読んできたBL漫画の中で1番好きです。最初は甘々な感じかと思いましたが由良先生が抱えている過去が読んでてしんどくなりました。最後は号泣しながら読みました。

I like it the most of all the BL comics I've read. At first, I thought it was a sweet feeling, but it became difficult to read Yura sensei's past. I read it while crying at the end.

恋から愛へ

From love to love

This review contains spoilers. 1巻の時点では、生徒×先生の甘いお話かと思っていましたが、次第に物語全体のテーマである「見えなくともそこにあるものとしての愛」へと移っていきます。過去に亡くした恋人との約束を北極星のように捉え、縋るものとしていた由良先生に、高校生の煌星君はまだ子供で、その真意や根幹を理解することができないまま、2巻が終わり、2人は6年の離別を迎えます。由良先生は6年の旅の中で出会った女性に「忘れたいことがあるのは忘れられないことと同じ、常に本当の願いは逆にある」と言われ、忘れたくないからこそ北極星のように縋ってきた恋人との思い出との向き合い方に僅かな変化が生まれます。そして煌星君も大人になり、きちんと由良先生を理解し向き合うことができるようになっています。3巻では、再会した2人が大人として改めて関係を再構築する中で、由良先生の心の中にあった願いは本当は何だったのか、2人で紐解いていきます。昼間でも本当は同じ場所にある北極星。昼間は消えてしまうのではなく、見えないだけでそこにあるものです。過去の思いも約束も、忘れるべきものではなく今を形作るものだという煌星の言葉によって初めて、由良は、北極星が見えなくなってもそこにあると信じて生きていけると思えるようになったのでしょう。まさに、煌星はその名の通り地球を照らして北極星を見えなくする恒星・太陽であり、だからこそ、北極星が見えなくなり始める夜明けが訪れるということで、夜明けのポラリスというタイトルなのかなと思いました。本当に素晴らしい作品でした。

This review contains spoilers. At the time of volume 1, I thought it was a sweet story about student x teacher, but gradually it moved to “love as something that is there even when you can't see it,” which is the theme of the entire story. High school student Kosei-kun is still a child, and volume 2 ends, and the two are separated for 6 years without being able to understand their true intentions and fundamentals to Yura sensei, who took promises with their lovers lost in the past like the North Star. Professor Yura was told by a woman she met during her 6-year trip that “having something you want to forget is the same as not being able to forget, and your true wish is always the opposite,” and there is a slight change in how you deal with your memories with your lover who has haunted like the North Star precisely because you don't want to forget it. Also, Kosei-kun has become an adult, and he is now able to properly understand and face Yura sensei. In volume 3, as the two reunited people rebuild their relationship once again as adults, the two unravel what the wish that was in Yura sensei's heart actually was. The North Star is actually in the same place even during the daytime. They don't disappear during the daytime; they're just there because you can't see them. It was probably the first time that Yura came to think that her past thoughts and promises are not something to be forgotten and that they are things that shape the present, and that she can live believing that the North Star is there even if she can't see it. Exactly, as the name suggests, the brilliant star is a star or sun that illuminates the Earth and makes the North Star invisible, and that's why dawn comes when the North Star begins to become invisible, so I thought it was the title Polaris at Dawn. It was a really great piece.

とりあえず読め、バカタレども。

Just read it, idiots.

膨大な量のBLを読んでいると、どうしても作品に対して既視感が生まれてしまうんです。それはこの手のジャンルが多量ゆえに、すでに王道パターンや紋切り型の台詞などが存在しており、それの組み合わせ次第で物語に差異をつけているからだと思われます。（いや、それを含めて私はBLを好き好んでいるのですが）そうなると作品を評価する際、絵の綺麗さやセッk（ryのシーンの盛り上がりだけを見ているような気がします。しかし、貪るようにBLを読み漁っていると定期的にその考えを覆してくれるような作品に出逢います。その一つが本作なのですが。これは面白いですよ。非常に。BLは読む人を選ぶジャンルだとは思うのですが、本作に関しては古今東西の森羅万象とりあえず読みなさい。せめて人間として生まれたならば読みなさい。このレビューを読む暇があるなら、とっとと購入して作者に印税与えて次への作品の契機につながるよう支持しなさい。と口が悪くなってしまうほどには本作はそれだけ価値があると思います。もちろん賛否両論はあるでしょう。けれど、読まなければ面白いとも面白くないともわかりません。作品を評価するのはその作品を読んでからです。面白ければ万々歳。面白くなければそれは私の責任ではありません。作者の責任でもありません。上手い謳い文句に騙されて買ったあなたの責任です。（まあ、誰の責任でもないと思いますが）とりあえず読め、バカタレども。

Reading a huge amount of BL inevitably creates a sense of deja vu about the work. This is probably because there are so many genres of this kind, that there are already royal patterns and line lines, etc., and differences are added to the story depending on the combination of these. (No, I like BL, including that) When that happens, I feel like I'm only looking at the beauty of the picture and the excitement of the scene (ry) when evaluating the work. However, when I read BL in a voracious manner, I regularly come across works that overturn that idea. One of them is this work. This is interesting. Very much. I think BL is a genre where people choose to read it, but for this work, read Shinra Bansho from the Past, the East, and the West for now. If you were born at least as a human, read it. If you have time to read this review, please buy it at last, give royalties to the author, and support it so that it can lead to an opportunity for the next work. I think this work is worth so much that it makes people hate it. Of course there are pros and cons. But if you don't read it, you won't know if it's interesting or not. I evaluate a work after reading it. If it's funny, ten thousand years old. It's not my fault if it's not fun. Nor is it the author's fault. It's your responsibility to buy it after being deceived by a good claim. (Well, I don't think it's anyone's fault) Just read it, idiots.

切ないまでの純愛

Pure Love Until Sad

This review contains spoilers. BLだからという理由で避けている人がいるのならそれはすごくもったいないことだと思う程に最高の作品でした。最終巻は読みながら終始涙が止まらず、胸が締め付けられるくらい切ない純愛でした。由良ちゃんの真白への想いも、羽賀くんの由良ちゃんへの想いも、純愛だけど綺麗ではなくて……辛さも寂しさも全部複雑に絡み合った愛情に胸がやられました。二人が身体的に結ばれた時、羽賀くんが涙を流すシーンが印象に残ってます。羽賀くんが待ち続けた六年間や、由良ちゃんの十数年の真白への想い、辛さを乗り越えて羽賀くんと結ばれたこと、それら全てがあの涙に繋がっていたように思えて、読んでいる私もひたすら涙を流しました。この作品に出会えて良かったです

This review contains spoilers. If there are people who avoid it because it's BL, it was such a great work that I think it would be a waste. I couldn't stop crying from beginning to end while reading the last volume, and it was such a sad pure love that my heart was tightened. I was moved by Yura-chan's feelings for Mashiro, Haga-kun's feelings for Yura-chan, and the love that was pure love but not beautiful... pain and loneliness were all intricately intertwined. The scene where Haga-kun sheds tears when the two are physically connected left an impression on me. The six years Haga-kun had been waiting for, Yura-chan's feelings for Mashiro for more than ten years, and the fact that she was tied to Haga-kun after overcoming pain all seemed to have led to those tears, and I just shed tears as I read it. I'm glad I came across this work

夜明けのポラリス

Polaris at dawn

This review contains spoilers. いいです。1.2は某サイトで3巻のみ購入しましたがいいです。3巻でやっと付き合うのでえ〇ちは少なめですがラスト60ページくらいのところでがっつり？しっかり？あるのでわたし的には大満足です。美人受けほんといい。

This review contains spoilers. That's good. I only bought 3 volumes of 1.2 on a certain site, which is fine. We're finally dating in volume 3, so there aren't many, but it's tough at the last 60 pages or so? firmly? It's there, so I'm very satisfied. It's really nice to be treated as a beautiful woman.

心を掬うのは新しい恋の道標

What scoops up your heart is a signpost for a new love

This review contains spoilers. 『俺と上司の～』『先生、もう～』から嘉島先生読んでます。この作品は爽やかタイトルに反して、なかなかの重さを持った作品です。そして伏線というか、思い出の答え合わせ回収率が凄くて。作品の中で過ぎて行く年月を、こちらも読みながら登場人物と一緒に、想いを分かち合うような気分にさせられたりして、羽賀氏が泣くところで私も、、うぅ(泣)読後感はとても良いです。

This review contains spoilers. I'm reading Kashima-sensei from “Me and My Boss's” and “Teacher, Enough!” Contrary to its refreshing title, this work is quite heavy. And the recovery rate was amazing, or rather, the answers from my memories combined. It made me feel like I was sharing my feelings with the characters while reading this one too, and it made me feel like Mr. Haga cries... wow (crying) the feeling after reading it is very good.

When I was an attacking student, I also loved kissing here and there. Also, I like TNK from Uke because it's cute...?

久々に泣きました

I cried after a long time

This review contains spoilers. あまり先生×生徒は好みではなく避けて通ることが多かったんです。しかも試し読みの段階で年下ワンコ系かとも思っていたので。オススメされたので1巻だけ…と思って読んだら一気読みしてました。久々にBLで泣きました。浄化された気持ちです(笑)6年も待つなんて辛いし、過去に縋るのも辛い。約束に縛られて…いや、自ら縛られに行ってる。読んでいて気持ちがギュッとなることもありますが、絵も綺麗だしぜひとも読んでもらいたい作品です。

This review contains spoilers. I often avoided teachers and students because I didn't like them. What's more, at the trial reading stage, I was wondering if it was a younger dog type. It was recommended, so I thought it was just volume 1... and when I read it, I read it all at once. It's been a while since I cried in BL. I feel purified (laughs) It's painful to wait 6 years, and it's also painful to struggle with the past. Bound by promises... no, I'm bound by myself. There are times when I feel nervous when I read it, but the pictures are beautiful and I definitely want people to read it.

拗らせ系？

relentless?

単なる生徒と教師の恋物語かと思いきや、一筋縄ではいかない登場人物達のバックグラウンドのお陰で紆余曲折ありまくります。なかなかうまくいかないもどかしさもあるけど、ラストに向かうには必要なスパイスでもあると理解します。

I thought it was just a love story between a student and a teacher, but there are many twists and turns thanks to the characters' backgrounds, which are not straightforward. There's also the frustration that it doesn't work very well, but I understand that it's also a necessary spice to get to the end.

北極星の交代

The alternation of the North Stars

This review contains spoilers. 事故で亡くした恋人を忘れられない高校教師由良ちゃん（受）を一途に思う元チャラDKカースト上位の羽賀くん（攻）のお話。3巻まで読んでも初読は「なるほど、両想いになってよかったね」くらいだったのが、少し寝かして再読したら…3巻でかなりグッときました！由良ちゃんの、亡くした恋人への「忘れたくない、ずっと彼だけ好きでいたい、彼だけ死なせてしまったのに自分だけ幸せになりたくない」という気持ちと、強引にズカズカと心に入ってくる羽賀くんからのアプローチ、好きだと言ってくれるまっすぐな気持ちへの心の揺らぎが3巻で爆発しててたまらなかった…！切なくて涙出ました。羽賀くんに関しては、最初はなんか調子良くてあんまり好きになれなかったんだけど、6年の月日でグッと大人びて…「6年も連絡を返してもらえないのは辛かっただろうな」と思っていたから、初めて2人が結ばれたときの羽賀くんの涙でもらい泣きしちゃいました。DKの頃はチャラくて生意気だったけど、でもそういえばいい子だったなぁ、と。ちなみに結ばれた時の話でいうと、由良ちゃんの「嬉しくて、悲しくて、淋しくて、どうしようもなく愛しくて、苦しい」というモノローグが胸熱でまた泣いちゃいました。北極星（ポラリス）って実は一つの星のことではなく、長い時間をかけていくつかの星がその位置に動いてるんだよね。由良ちゃんの今のポラリスが羽賀くんなんだな、と思いました。真白のことを胸に置きつつも2人で幸せになってほしいなぁ。あと、2巻と3巻に番外編で触れられていた柊真の葛藤も私は好きで、最後に柊真の笑顔も見られて良かったです。

This review contains spoilers. It's a story about Haga-kun (attack), a former high school teacher who can't forget her lover who lost her accident, completely thinking of Yura-chan (Osamu), a high-ranking former Chara DK caste. Even though I read up to 3 volumes, my first read was “I see, I'm glad we had both feelings,” but when I lay it down for a while and reread it... it was pretty amazing with volume 3! Yura-chan's feeling of “I don't want to forget, I want to love only him the whole time, I don't want to be the only one to be happy even though he only died,” the approach from Haga-kun who forcibly comes into my heart, and the fluctuation of her heart to the straight feeling that she says she likes them exploded in volume 3...! I was so sad that I burst into tears. As for Haga-kun, things were going so well at first that I didn't really like him, but after 6 years, I grew up so much... I thought “it would be hard not to get back in touch for 6 years,” so I cried because of Haga-kun's tears when the two first tied up. I was playful and cheeky when I was in DK, but I thought he was a good kid. By the way, speaking of when they got together, Yura-chan's monologue “Happy, Sad, Lonely, Helplessly Adorable, and Painful” made me cry again with heartbreak. The North Star (Polaris) isn't actually a single star; several stars move in that position over a long period of time. I thought Yura-chan's Polaris now is Haga-kun. I want the two of them to be happy while keeping the truth white in their hearts. Also, I like the conflict of Makoto Hiiragi, which was touched upon in the extra edition in volumes 2 and 3, and it was nice to be able to see Makoto Hiiragi's smile at the end.
