買っちゃった

I bought it

This review contains spoilers. 某所で1話が公開されていて、それを読んで即検索して購入しました。父親の前でマリコが重なる所で涙腺が…

This review contains spoilers. Episode 1 was released somewhere, and I read it, immediately searched for it, and purchased it. Where Mariko overlaps in front of her father, her lacrimal glands...

すごく良かった。

That was really good.

絵も綺麗で分かりやすいのですが、何より内容がガツンときます。読んだ後どうしようもなくて、ただ泣くしかできませんでした。

The pictures are also beautiful and easy to understand, but above all, the content is amazing. There was nothing I could do after reading it, and I could only cry.

命を描く一冊　?3.9

a book about life? 3.9

This review contains spoilers. キツい作品だと思う、読者にではなく描き手にとって・・・破滅型の人間と付き合うのは辛い、キャラと作者でも、そうではないでしょうかそれでも、描かずにいられなかった・・・その原動力は憤りだったのだろうか？引き込まれる作画、明確なものは少ない、登場人物が全員不幸な異色作。

This review contains spoilers. I think it's a tough work, not for readers, but for the painter... it's hard to date a ruinous person, isn't that the case even with the character and author, but even so, I couldn't help but draw... I wonder if the driving force behind that was resentment? It's a unique work that draws you in, few things are clear, and all the characters are unhappy.

唯一の親友の死

The death of one and only best friend

唯一の親友が死んで、「今からでもできることはないのか？！」となる怒涛の展開の疾走感が新しくてすごい。生きているうちにやればよかったことは、実際は「生きているから」できないのだ。

My only best friend died and I was like, “Isn't there anything I can do now?!” The sense of speed in this furious development is new and amazing. What you should have done while you're alive can't actually be done “because you're alive.”

独特

unique

独特な絵で最初はガサツな主人公なんだなと読み出しました。徐々にマリコの手紙を通して2人の関係性やマリコの危うさが分かって引き込まれます。マリコが死を選んだのが悲しいです。

It's a unique picture, and at first I read that he's a rough protagonist. Gradually, I understand the relationship between the two and Mariko's danger through Mariko's letters, and I'm drawn in. I'm sad that Mariko chose death.

さみしい…

I'm lonely...

まりこは可哀想すぎる? 小さい頃から助けられたかったんだろうな。めんどくさ女子だけど、しいちゃんからの愛を確かめたかったのかな〜〜。手紙は何が書かれてたのかな〜

is Mariko too pathetic? I guess I've wanted to be helped since I was little. She's a troublesome girl, but I wonder if she wanted to confirm the love from Shii-chan. I wonder what was written in the letter~

切なくて、鮮烈で、ヒリヒリする。

It's sad, intense, and tingling.

This review contains spoilers. 前置きなしにズカズカと入ってくるような唐突な場面の展開がいい。救われない悲しさがあるのに、そのテンポの良さとガサツでキレのいい言葉の魅力で辛気臭さが無い。潮の香りと古い映画を観た後ような読後感が残り、しっかり深く引きずり込まれたなぁと感じた。真面目な大人目線の感想としては、こういう子が見過ごされる社会ではダメだ！みたいなことも考えてみたり。でもマリコの人生にはしいちゃんがいてよかった。しいちゃんも生きていけそうでよかった。この画風のお陰で重い話が暗くなり過ぎないのかな。重い話なのに軽やかで鮮烈な、いい作品でした。

This review contains spoilers. I like the development of an abrupt scene where they come in without introduction. Even though there is the sadness of not being saved, there is no pungent smell due to the good tempo and appeal of rough, sharp words. The scent of the ocean and the feeling after reading it, like after watching an old movie, remained, and I felt that I was dragged in firmly and deeply. As an impression from a serious adult perspective, it's no good in a society where children like this are overlooked! I also thought about things like that. But I'm glad Mariko had Shii-chan in her life. I'm glad that Shii-chan seems to be able to live too. I wonder if the heavy story doesn't get too dark thanks to this style of painting. Even though it was a heavy story, it was a nice work that was light and vivid.

絵がとにかく素晴らしい

The picture is just wonderful

表紙から分かる通りに、この作品は絵がとにかく素晴らしいです。青い表紙に黄色の閃光のような文字が走り、背景に描かれている女性の顔は漫画やイラスト感を残しつつ絵画の厚塗りのような雰囲気を醸し出しています。中の漫画も本当に描写が美しく、その絵を見るためだけに何度も読み返したいと思えます。少しほろ苦いお話で私はとても好みでした。

As you can see from the cover, the picture of this work is simply amazing. Yellow flashing letters run on the blue cover, and the woman's face depicted in the background creates an atmosphere like a thick painting while retaining the feel of a comic or illustration. The comics inside are also really beautiful, and I think I want to reread them over and over again just to look at those pictures. It was a slightly bittersweet story and I really liked it.

映画を見て満足できなくて原作を読んだ

I was not satisfied with watching the movie and read the original

セリフもシチュエーションも映画で描かれていることはほとんど同じだったけど、そこでは感じられなかった衝動的でエモーショナルな感情が湧き上がってくるようだった。

The lines and situations were almost the same as those depicted in the movie, but it seemed like an impulsive and emotional feeling that I couldn't feel there welled up.

リアリティ

reality

まるで映画。ストーリは勿論、絵の荒々しさにより勢いが生み出されていて、映像のように感じました。深い友情というよりは共依存といえる関係性。痛くて苦しくて、2人の間だけの繋がりがあって。読んでいて楽しくはないんだけれど、胸がザワザワする作品でした。

It's like a movie. Not to mention the story, momentum was generated by the roughness of the picture, and it felt like a video. A relationship that can be said to be codependent rather than a deep friendship. It was painful and painful, and there was only a connection between the two of them. It wasn't fun to read, but it was a work that made my heart cramp.

良かった

good

2作とも良質な短編映画を見た気持ちになりました。全くジャンルは異なるんですけど、なんとも言えない苦味を伴った爽やかな後味。

It made me feel like I had seen both good short films. The genre is completely different, but it has a refreshing aftertaste with indescribable bitterness.

熱い友情と愛情

Passionate friendship and love

This review contains spoilers. シイちゃんの真っ直ぐな色々な想いが切ない。出ていった母親はなぜマリコを救わなかったのか、娘に暴行した父親なのに、マリコに「男をとった、色目使った」だなんて母親ならその行為を止めるべきで娘を責めるなんてありえない。そもそも父親が娘に暴行てなんなのか。おばさんは良い人だけど、救うまでにはいたらなかったのかな。シイちゃんが格好良いので消化不良にはならないけど、色々考えた。

This review contains spoilers. Shii-chan's many straight feelings are sad. Why didn't the mother who left save Mariko? Even though she was the father who assaulted her daughter, any mother who “took the man and used color” by Mariko should stop that act, and it's impossible to blame her daughter. Why did a father beat his daughter in the first place? My aunt is a nice person, but I wonder if she didn't make it until she was saved. Shii-chan is good-looking, so I don't get indigestion, but I thought about a lot.

切ないけれど眩い。

It's sad, yet dazzling.

This review contains spoilers. ぼうりょく描写があるので苦手な方は注意。シイの勢いある言動とどこかひやりとするマリコの回想シーンがいい。お骨が散る絵は心が奪われる。絵からきらきらしているのが伝わってくる。

This review contains spoilers. There are depressing depictions, so be careful if you don't like it. I like Shii's energetic words and actions and the somewhat humbling recollection scene of Mariko. Paintings that scatter bones take away your heart. I can tell from the picture that it's sparkling.

胸が痛い。

My chest hurts.

This review contains spoilers. 気になっていた作品が映画化するというので読んでみました。最後の手紙の内容がどんな内容だったのかシイちゃんにしかわかりませんが、当たり障りの無い日常の手紙だったのか、遺書のような手紙だったのか。マリコが最期までシイちゃんを想って手紙を書いていたと思うと胸が痛みました。

This review contains spoilers. The film I was interested in was going to be made into a movie, so I read it. Only Shii-chan knows what the content of the last letter was, but was it a bland everyday letter, or was it a letter like a suicide note? My heart ached when I thought that Mariko had been writing letters thinking of Shii-chan until the end of her life.

Twitterで回ってきて

Go around on Twitter

Twitterで1話だけかな？回ってきて気になったので読みました。良かったです。スピード感があってスパパッと読めたんですが魅せるとこはちゃんと魅せていて泣けました。汚い言葉遣いが絵柄と合っていて心に残る一冊になりました。ただ、もう1作品読切が入っていることを知らずに読んでしまって、上手いこと読了感に浸ることができませんでした。でも面白かったです。

Maybe it's just episode 1 on Twitter? I went around and was curious, so I read it. That was great. There was a sense of speed and I was able to read it quickly, but what fascinated me really fascinated me and made me cry. The foul language matched the pattern, making it a memorable book. However, I read the other work without knowing that it had read through, and I wasn't able to immerse myself in the sense that I was good at reading it. But it was interesting.

すごくいいとオススメされただけに...

I was only recommended that it was really good...

自分の中の期待値が高まりすぎてしまっていた。感情の表現が豊富でスッと物語の中に入りやすかった。

My expectations had risen too much. There were plenty of expressions of emotion, and it was easy to quickly get into the story.

最近では珍しいタッチ

A rare touch these days

少し昔にこういう雰囲気のマンガはよく見たのですが、最近はめっきり少なくなったなあ懐かしいなあという印象です。ひとりひとりの表情がとてもよい。番外編で「ふたりで暮らしたい」と言っていたけど実際はそうしなかったんですね、ふたりで暮らしていたら違う未来があったんだろうなあと思ったり、最後の手紙はなんて書いてあったんだろうと思ったり、読み手にいろいろと想像させてくれるとても良いお話でした。

A little while ago, I often saw manga with this kind of atmosphere, but recently there are so few that I have the impression that it's nostalgic. Each and every one of them has a very nice expression. They said “I want to live together” in the extra edition, but they didn't actually do that, and it was a very good story that made readers imagine a lot of things, such as wondering if they had lived together, and wondering what the last letter was written.

泣けました

I was able to cry

This review contains spoilers. 刺し違えてでも遺骨を持っていくと体を張ってくれる幼馴染…を持つマリコは、唯一無二のものを持っているなあと思いました。シイノにとってマリコがどれほど大切な存在であったのか、作中の行動を見ていると胸が締め付けられます。もっと読んでいたいと思いました。

This review contains spoilers. I thought Mariko, who has a childhood friend... who stretches her body when she takes the remains even if she stabs her wrong, has something unique. My heart tightens when I watch how important Mariko was to Shiino as I watched her actions in the story. I wanted to read more.
