かわいい～！

so cute~!

This review contains spoilers. 表題作のみ、チャラい仕事できるCGディレクター上司の柳瀬さん×柳瀬に憧れる一途な新人金田、無愛想な新人金田の扱いに困る柳瀬、実はすごく柳瀬に憧れていて話せなかっただけだと知って、というお話。照れ屋な金田くんがめちゃくちゃかわいい！顔怖いと思いきや神と上手く喋れんって！中学生か笑ふいに見せる金田の笑顔と方言がかわいすぎて悶えました。お仕事のお話はすごく面白くて、柳瀬さんは憧れのお仕事についたはずなのに色々もまれて仕事に対する熱量を忘れていたけど、金田くんの情熱と一途さに仕事への情熱を思い出してくというお話です！熱い感じがすごく良かったです！そして、そんな金田に段々と惹かれていく柳瀬も良かったです！初えちは最後の書き下ろしでちょろっと。修正はぼんやりで。可愛かったです！少し残念だなぁと思ったのはお仕事のお話の熱量と上手くまとまってたのに比べてふたりの最後は書き下ろしでえいやーととってつけたような感じで、カナダに行った柳瀬をどうやって金田が追いかけてきたのかとか分からないまま、あそこまでしっかり仕事のお話描くのなら金田が柳瀬が居ない間にどうやって仕事を頑張ったかとか2巻になってもいいから描いてほしかったなぁと、そうするとふたりがやっと、というのはもっと深みが出る気がしました。何だかご都合主義な気がしてすごく良かったのに最後すんってなってしまった。完全に個人的な意見で申し訳ないですが、そこを気にしなければ絵柄も可愛くて、1巻にこれだけの熱量でしっかりまとめていらっしゃるのは作者様さすがだな！と思います！かわいいお話がお好きな方、ツンデレ受けがお好きな方、お仕事のお話も読みたい方におすすめしたいです！

This review contains spoilers. The title work only tells the story of Yanase-san, a CG director boss who can do casual work, and Kaneda, a newcomer who admires Yanase, and Yanase, who has trouble dealing with the unfriendly newcomer Kaneda, actually knows that they just really admired Yanase and couldn't speak. The shy Kaneda is insanely cute! I thought his face was scary, but he said he couldn't speak well with God! I was in agony because the smile and dialect of Kaneda, who seemed funny when he was in middle school, were so cute. The story about the work was really interesting, and even though Mr. Yanase must have gotten to the job he longed for, he had forgotten his enthusiasm for work due to various things, but he immediately remembered Kaneda-kun's passion and passion for work! The feeling of heat was really nice! Also, Yanase, who gradually became attracted to Kaneda, was good too! Hatsuechi is the last one I wrote down, so it's a bit long. The correction was vague. It was cute! What I thought was a bit disappointing was that compared to the enthusiasm of the work story, the last one of them was written down and put together so well, and if you were to draw a work story that well without knowing how Kaneda went to Canada, and if you were to draw a work story that well, I wanted them to draw how Kaneda worked so hard while Yanase wasn't around, so I wanted them to draw it because it's okay to do volume 2, and then the two of them finally said I felt like it would come out even deeper. I felt like it was kind of expedient, and it was really nice, but it ended up being the last one. I'm sorry that this is a completely personal opinion, but if you don't care about that, the design is cute, and the author really put it all together with so much heat in one volume! I think so! I would recommend it to those who like cute stories, those who like to listen to tsundere, and those who also want to read work stories!

CG業界の神デザイナー×一途な後輩

God Designer in the CG Industry x Hitotsuna Juniors

This review contains spoilers. CG業界を舞台に、名の知れたCGデザイナー・柳瀬×無口な新人・金田。教育担当になった金田にいつも睨まれ、触らないで欲しいと言われ、でもそれは緊張と尊敬の裏返しで…という不器用な金田が可愛い！輝かしい経歴を持ちながらも情熱を失っていた柳瀬が、ひたすら一途で眩しい金田との出会いから自分を見つめ直す展開もよかった。この作者さんは前に読んだ作品でもお仕事パートが面白かったけど、そういうのがお得意なのかな？今回もCG作業とかまったく詳しくないけど、奮起する彼らを見ているのが面白かったです。それにしても金田が可愛いなー。隠しているのかいないのか、いざという時に出る方言もギャップ萌え！本編はエロなしですが描き下ろしで少しあります。もっとその後が見たかったけど面白かった！

This review contains spoilers. Set in the CG industry, famous CG designer Yanase x quiet newcomer Kaneda. The clumsy Kaneda, who is now in charge of education, is always staring at me and telling me that I don't want you to touch her, but that's the opposite of nervousness and respect... the clumsy Kaneda is cute! There was also a good development where Yanase, who had a brilliant career but had lost his passion, looked back at himself from his single-minded encounter with the dazzling Kaneda. This author's work part time was interesting even in the works I've read before, but I wonder if he's good at that kind of thing? I'm not familiar with CG work at all this time either, but it was interesting to watch them get excited. Even so, Kaneda is cute. There's also a gap in dialects that come up in times of emergency, whether they're hiding it or not! There is no eroticism in the main story, but there is a little bit of drawing. I wanted to see more after that, but it was interesting!

so cute...

絵が上手い上に受けも攻めもどストライクで、大満足です?二人ともめっちゃかわゆ…。欲を言えば、もっと2人のイチャイチャが見たかったなあ。

In addition to being a good painter, you are very satisfied with both receiving and attacking with strikes? they're both so cute... Speaking of greed, I wanted to see them flirt even more.

教育係の柳瀬は新人の金田に嫌われている、と思っていたら、実は憧れて尊敬しすぎてまともに話せないだけだった。表情が表れるようになった金田が可愛すぎ。不器用なところも一生懸命なところもすごく可愛い。柳瀬がたまにダサ..いやカッコ悪い時もあるけど、それはそれで愛嬌？笑ふたりがほんわかしてて読んでて楽しいです。

When I thought Yanase, the education clerk, was disliked by the newcomer Kaneda, I actually admired and respected him so much that he just couldn't speak properly. Kaneda, who has come to show facial expressions, is too cute. The clumsy part and the hard work are so cute. Yanase is lame once in a while.. no, there are times when it's not cool, but is that why you love it? Lol, the two of them are warm and it's fun to read.

方言の間違い多すぎた

There were too many dialect mistakes

柳瀬の金田くんに対するメロメロ加減、オラオラすぎず(でもちょっと意地悪な時もあり)すごく好きです。金田くんのまっすぐな気持ちも可愛い！ただ、金田くんの方言が富山弁との事ですがあまりにも間違っていて、そこで一旦手が止まってしまいました。少しの間違いならスルーするのですが、多すぎました。監修入れてなかったのかなと思います。ストーリーは本当に素晴らしいので、富山弁を知らない方であれば気にならないと思います。下手に私が富山県民であったばかりに、そこで引っかかってしまいちょっと冷める瞬間があって残念でした。

I really like Yanase's melancholy attitude towards Kaneda-kun, not too arrogant (but there are times when he is a little mean). Kaneda-kun's straight feelings are cute too! However, although Kaneda-kun's dialect is the Toyama dialect, it was so wrong that I stopped working for a while. If it was a slight mistake, it would go through, but there were too many. I don't think it was supervised. The story is really great, so if you don't know the Toyama dialect, you won't be interested. Unfortunately, I was just a resident of Toyama prefecture, and there was a moment when I got caught there and it cooled down a bit.

業界に惹かれて

Attracted to the industry

攻め受けは特に好みじゃなかったのですが、テーマが気になり過ぎて購入。しっかり取材されているちゃんとした職業ものでした。キャラクターもそのテーマにしっかり沿った悩み、ストーリーの枠組みが出来ていて、かつ知らない人にも分かりやすく端的に説明が入っているので読みやすいです。何より台詞に上手く入れ込めてるのが本当によく出来ている。BLではなかなか見ない職業漫画としての技術力の高さに感心してしまいました。しっかり表現されている割には知識の披露のようなくどさがなかったのもとても良かったです。ただ、BLとしてはお互いの恋愛感情の動きが男女ものの恋愛漫画のようで、BLならではを求めてる人には物足りなさそうです。行為のシーンは2巻以降それなりにありますが、形式美的な部分が強くて表情や構図の魅せ方はありきたりでした。絵はところどころのコマでキャラクターが力尽きたような平面絵になるので、私は作画崩壊的部分が気になって目が止まります。キャラクターも設定や心情の描写が弱いので、萌え的な要素は低く感じました。職業ものとして楽しかったので2巻までは大満足ですが、3巻以降は上記のBL要素としてのマイナス部分があるためここで〆で良いかなと思いました。というか展開の構成などドラマ化あたり意識してそうと感じたため手が伸びなくなってしまいました。

I didn't particularly like being attacked, but I was too concerned about the theme and bought it. It was a proper job that was thoroughly covered. The characters are also easy to read because they have problems and story frameworks that are in line with that theme, and the explanations are simple and easy to understand, even for people who don't know. Above all, it's really well put into the dialogue. I was impressed by their high level of technical ability as a professional comic, which is hard to watch in BL. It was also very nice that it wasn't as difficult as showing off knowledge in spite of the fact that it was well expressed. However, as a BL, the movements of their romantic feelings for each other seem like romance comics for men and women, and it seems unsatisfactory for people looking for something unique to BL. There have been quite a few scenes of action since volume 2, but the formal and aesthetic part was strong, and there were many ways to attract expressions and composition. The picture is a two-dimensional picture where the characters seem to have run out of strength with frames here and there, so I'm worried about the disruptive parts of the drawing and catch my eye. The characters are also weak in depicting settings and feelings, so I felt that the emotional elements were low. It was fun as an occupation, so I'm very satisfied up to volume 2, but since volume 3 and beyond, there are negative parts as BL elements described above, so I thought it would be good to finish here. Or rather, I was aware of the structure of the development, etc., and felt like that, so I couldn't reach out.

金田が…

Kaneda is...

二巻で金田くんが富山出身という話がてでくるんですが、これは富山弁？と気になって違和感が?新潟出身じゃ不味かったのかなぁ。漫画と関係ない話でごめんなさい?作品自体は個人的に凄くおすすめ！っていう感じではないですが面白いと思います。

The story that Kaneda-kun is from Toyama comes up in volume 2, but is this Toyama dialect? is that bothering you and feeling uncomfortable? I wonder if it was bad if I was from Niigata. Sorry for the story that has nothing to do with the manga? I personally highly recommend the work itself! It's not like that, but I think it's interesting.

お仕事BL

Work BL

This review contains spoilers. ずーっと表紙の受けの表情が気になってました。やっと購入できて読めました、、！！！お仕事色も強めのBLです。恋愛のもだもだ感とか葛藤みたいなのってあったのかな？ってぐらいあっさりとお付き合いが始まります。というか大人の恋愛でいつのまにか始まってるかんじでした。これはこれで良きですが、少しテンションについていけない時もあります。とにかく照れ顔が可愛いのと、2巻からは糖度も高めで言葉にもしてくれるのでよりわかりやすくなりました。

This review contains spoilers. I've always been worried about the face of reception on the cover. I was finally able to buy it and read it...!!! The work color is also strong, and it is a BL. I wonder if there was such a thing as a fuzzy feeling or conflict in love? It's that easy to start a relationship. Or rather, it felt like an adult romance had begun before I knew it. This is fine, but there are times when I can't keep up with the tension. Anyway, the shy face is cute, and from volume 2, the sugar content is high and it can be put into words, so it's even easier to understand.

ドラマで観て気になって

I watched it in a drama and got curious

以前テレビドラマで観ていたので、原作が気になってました！良かったです！金田がめっちゃかわいくてキュンキュンします。先輩柳瀬が好きで緊張して悟られないように「近づかないて下さい」とか言うから反抗的だとはじめは勘違いされるし。とても微笑ましいです！

I used to watch TV dramas, so I was curious about the original! That was great! Kaneda is so cute and makes me cringe. At first, I was misunderstood that Senpai Yanase is rebellious because he likes him and says “please stay away” so that he is nervous and doesn't notice. It's so smiling!

ピュア

pure

新人の金田はCGデザイナーの柳瀬に憧れてCG業界に入る、神と崇めている柳瀬がトレーラーとしてついてくれている今が最高に幸せだが、緊張顔が不機嫌だと思われて柳瀬は嫌われていると感じているが、、、緊張して怖い顔をしている金田が照れて真っ赤になる様は可愛すぎる、そりゃあ柳瀬もノックアウトでしょう。ただストーリーが少し単調で先が読めてしまうのが残念。値下げだったので購入しましたが、プロパーでは購入はしないかな。

The newcomer Kaneda admires CG designer Yanase and enters the CG industry, and now that Yanase, whom God and worshiper, is following him as a trailer, but I feel that Yanase is disliked because her nervous face is thought to be grumpy, but the way Kaneda, who has a nervous and scared face, turns embarrassed and bright red is too cute, well, Yanase is probably knocked out too. However, it's a pity that the story is a bit monotonous and I can read ahead. I bought it because it was a price cut, but I wonder if I'll buy it at Proper.

お仕事漫画として優秀

Excellent as a work comic

This review contains spoilers. 表紙の絵も素敵。タイトルもかわいい。（内容に合ってるかと言えば疑問だけど。。先輩から「お前の気持ちは恋とは違うと思うよ」って言われたのであって、後輩くんが「違うんです、恋じゃないんです！」って否定しているわけじゃなかったので…）特殊なお仕事の内情を知れる職場漫画は大好き。えっち描写は、私の好みから言えばほぼ無いに等しい（1巻に至っては本編でのえっちは無し。書下ろしで初）ですが、それでも2巻を買ってしまうほどキャラクターへの愛着も湧いたし、とにかく続きが読みたくなった。1巻最後で気持ちがつながって、2巻でどんなイチャラブが～！？と期待しましたが、あくまでお仕事漫画でした。好きすぎて仕事に集中出来ないから距離を置く、って、普通そんな考えにはならなくないか？しかもそのせいで好きな人を困惑させたり傷つけたりするのって、それは愛情とは認められないんですけど…って、かなりイライラもしましたが、しかし可愛いからなぁー。金田くんも柳瀬さんも、とにかく可愛かった！

This review contains spoilers. The picture on the cover is also nice. The title is cute too. (I wonder if it fits the content... My senior said, “I think your feelings are different from love,” and my junior said, “No, it's not love!” (I wasn't denying that...) I love workplace comics that tell me the inside story of a special job. The depiction over there is almost nothing from my point of view (up to volume 1, there is no ecchi in the main story. It's my first time writing it), but even so, I became so attached to the characters that I bought 2 volumes, and I wanted to read more anyway. Feelings are connected at the end of volume 1, and what kind of flirty love is there in volume 2!? I expected that, but it was just a work comic. Doesn't keeping a distance because you like it so much that you can't concentrate on your work usually make you think like that? What's more, the fact that it confuses or hurts someone you like because of that, although it's not recognized as love... it's pretty frustrating, but it's because they're cute. Both Kaneda and Yanase were just so cute!
