おっさんに共感

I sympathize with old men

This review contains spoilers. 主人公の自分の強さへの無自覚ぶりがとても面白い。弟子達の成長と謙虚さも読んでいて気持ちいい。「どうか倒れないで」「私ごときに負けないで」何度も読み返しました。同じおっさんとしてエールをおくりたい、ガンバレおっさん！配信されてる分全部読んじゃったし、次号配信されたら又最初から読もう！

This review contains spoilers. The protagonist's unawareness of his own strength is very interesting. It also feels good to read The Growth and Humility of the Disciples. I reread “Please Don't Fall Down” and “Don't Lose When I Am” over and over again. I want to give Yell as the same old man, Ganbare old man! I've read everything that's been distributed, and when the next issue is released, I'll read it from the beginning again!

面白い

interesting

最初は、たどたどしい感じでコマ割りもぎこちなく正直「もったいないなぁ」と思ったけど、巻が進むにつれその辺が改善されて、やっぱりプロだなぁと思った。最近の作品では、かなり次が待ち遠しい作品の一つになったので、お体に気をつけてこれからのワクワクする展開に期待します。ただ、アニメはねぇ…

At first, it felt rough and the frame division was awkward, and to be honest, I thought “that would be a waste,” but as the volume progressed, that area improved, and I thought he was a pro after all. Among my recent works, it has become one of my works that I can't wait for quite a while, so take care of yourself and look forward to exciting developments in the future. However, anime isn't...

みんなのおっさんであれ

Be everyone's old man

This review contains spoilers. 強いってやっぱりカッコいい、って思いました。主人公は普段は冴えないおっさんなのに、戦闘になるとめちゃくちゃカッコよく見えます。こんなに自信がない状態でも強いのに、強いと自覚したらどれほど強くなるのか？　と考えると続きが気になります。周囲がお膳立てする気持ちも分かります。何となく、主人公には誰のものにもなってほしくないので、申し訳ないがアリューシアには失恋してほしい。

This review contains spoilers. After all, I thought being strong was cool. The main character is usually a dull old man, but he looks insanely cool when it comes to battle. Even though you're strong even when you don't have this much confidence, how strong will you become if you become aware that you are strong? When I think about it, I'm worried about the continuation. I also understand the feeling of people around me making arrangements. Somehow, I don't want the main character to become anyone's, so I'm sorry, but I want Alusia to be heartbroken.

剣聖‥

Kensei...

This review contains spoilers. 片田舎の道場の息子が自覚ないまま育ててきた弟子たちが皆強くなり国の要職で活躍してる、その弟子たちが主人公を表舞台に引っ張り出してから実力が知れ渡る話。絵は丁寧だし戦いの流れも上手く描いてるし特に不満なく読めます。戦闘シーンがしっかり描かれているため文字が少なくすぐ読み終わるけどこの漫画はこれで良いかと‥まぁ弟子が育って年数経ってるから歳とってるのは仕方ないがわざわざオッサンを強調する必要は全くないかな？

This review contains spoilers. It's a story where the disciples, raised by a son in a rural dojo without being aware of it, have all become strong and are active in important positions in the country, and their abilities become known after the disciples pulled the main character out to the front stage. The pictures are careful, the battle flow is well drawn, and I can read them without any particular complaints. The battle scene is well drawn, so there are few characters and I finish reading it right away, but I wonder if this comic is good... well, since years have passed since my apprentice grew up, it's unavoidable that he's getting old, but isn't there any need to bother emphasizing the old man at all?

絵が動く

The picture moves

剣戟や魔法の闘いこれらが一枚絵で動いて読めるのは、ひとえにこの作品と作画のマッチングのなせる業と思う。自信のない剣聖が、なにかを成し遂げていく物語、自信がなくとも悩めども動き続ける様は、美しく読んでいて気持ちがいい。まあ、悩まなくなったら俺ＴＵＥになって興ざめでもあるので、これくらいの塩梅がいいのではと思う。

I think being able to read Sword Fist and Magical Warfare in a single picture is simply an act of matching this work with the drawing. The story of Kensei, who has no confidence, accomplishes something, and how he continues to move even though he is worried even if he lacks confidence, is beautiful to read and feel good. Well, once I'm not worried, I'll be TUE and excited, so I think this kind of salted plum would be good.

控えめな“おっさん”

Modest “old man”

タイトルだけは知ってはいましたが、アニメとなったきっかけで少し読んでみたら面白かったです。主人公の“おっさん”こと、ベリルはずっと剣術指導をしてきて、実は片田舎で人生を終えるレベルではないのに、自分はそうとは思っていなくて、自己肯定感が低い控えめな人物設定が面白いな、って思いました。片田舎と王都って距離にしてどれぐらいなんだろう？って思いましたが、王国騎士団長にまで昇りつめた女性をはじめとした弟子達と再会し、そのやりとりや会話もくすっと笑えて面白かったです。テンポもいいので、読みやすいな、って思いました。

I only knew the title, but since it became an anime, it was interesting to read it for a bit. The main character, “old man,” Beryl, has been teaching swordsmanship for a long time, and even though he's not at the level where he ends his life in a rural area, I didn't think so, and I thought it was interesting to have a modest character setting with a low sense of self-affirmation. How far is it in terms of distance between the countryside and the royal capital? I thought, but I was reunited with my disciples, starting with a woman who had risen to the rank of the Knights Commander of the Kingdom, and that exchange and conversation was so funny and funny. The tempo is also good, so I thought it was easy to read.

そりゃ放っとかないよねの強さが良い

Well, the strength of I won't let go is good

何でそんなに自己評価が低いんだろうと思うくらいベリルが強くて見てて楽しいです。戦いの描写も迫力があって見応えありました。１巻しか読んでないですが、ベリルが自己評価が低い理由も後に出てくるのか、ここから話がどう広がっていくのか、続きが楽しみです

Beryl is so strong that I wonder why her self-esteem is so low, and it's fun to watch. The depiction of the battle was also impressive and impressive. I've only read volume 1, but I'm looking forward to seeing if the reason why Beryl has a low self-esteem will come up later, and how the story will unfold from here

ほぉ～

wow

プッシュ作品だったので読んでみたんですが、面白いです。なんで若い頃に世に出て大成しなかったんだろう？勿体ない。でも、弟子達がそういう風に思って、感じていたので今回剣の指南役になり、遅咲きの…ってなるんだろうけどね。お父さんの願い通り結婚は本人が意識すればすぐ出来そうだけど。

It was a push work, so I read it, and it's interesting. Why didn't they come out into the world when they were young and didn't succeed? that's a shame. But my disciples thought and felt that way, so this time they will act as sword instructors, and they'll probably be late bloomers... It seems like they will be able to get married as soon as the person himself is aware of it, as my father wishes.

題名はあまり気にせず

I don't really care about the title

おっさんは自分のことをおっさんとそんなに自分を下げなくても良いのにと思いました。弟子たちに尊敬されていて、でも話があっちの方へ流れていかないといいのですが。

The old man thought he didn't have to lower himself that much to the old man. I'm respected by my disciples, but I hope the conversation doesn't go that way.

タイトル！！！

title!!!

タイトル失敗ではないですか？わかりやすいのかもしれないけど、このタイトルで倦厭してしまう人もいるのでは？読むととても面白いです。主人公がおじさんだからこその面白さがある。強い美少女の弟子たちと枯れたおじさんの組み合わせ良きです。

Isn't the title a failure? Maybe it's easy to understand, but aren't there people who get tired of this title? It's very interesting to read. It's interesting because the main character is an old man. The combination of a strong, beautiful girl's apprentices and a dead old man is a good combination.

剣の話なのに…

even though it's about swords...

ストーリーは面白いしキャラもいいんだけど、剣聖の話なのに戦闘シーンの描写がわかりづらくて凄く残念です。剣術が見せ場なんだから、その凄さをしっかり伝えてほしい！

The story is interesting and the characters are good, but it's really disappointing that even though it's a story about Kensei, it's hard to understand the depiction of the battle scene. Kenjutsu is a showcase, so I want you to clearly convey its awesomeness!

肩書は当てにならない

The title is unreliable

This review contains spoilers. 田舎で剣の教官をしてるおっさんは弱いとみんなから思われたそうだが剣を使うと圧倒的に強いしおっさんは自分が弱いと思い込んでるのか自信がなさげにかつての教え子達が続々と登場するのもなんなんと思ったがおっさんのとぼけるとこが面白い環境が変われば自信に繋がったのかメキメキと自分の実力が分かり改めてみんなは見直すことに?

This review contains spoilers. It seems that everyone thought that the old man who is a sword instructor in the countryside was weak, but when using a sword, the old man who is overwhelmingly strong thinks that he is weak, and his former students appear one after another due to lack of confidence, but the old man's place of blur led to confidence if the environment changed, and everyone decided to review it again?

いくらなんでも自己評価低すぎでは

Don't you think your self evaluation is too low no matter how low

昔力不足を感じることがあったにせよ、近隣諸国に名を轟かす騎士団の団長副長、冒険者ギルド最上位の剣士、それより強いと評価した騎士と対等以上に渡り合ってるけど、そろそろ自己評価上がる？まさかそこまでの腕前で自分はまだまだとか、いくらキャラ付けでもちょっと無理があるかと。あとは団長露出多すぎぃ。話自体は楽しんでます。

Even though I felt that my strength was lacking in the past, I'm on an equal footing with the leader and deputy leader of the Knights who are famous in neighboring countries, the highest swordsman in the Adventurers' Guild, and the knights I evaluated as being stronger than that, but is my self-evaluation about to rise? I don't think I have that much skill, that I still have a long way to go, and I wonder if it's a bit impossible no matter how many characters I add. After that, the commander revealed too much. I'm enjoying the story itself.

おっさん好きのツボをついてくる

It comes with pressure points that old men like

This review contains spoilers. 無自覚俺ツヨ……なんだけど、しっかり努力の末ってところがたまらん好きです。普段の姿と、戦う姿のギャップがほんと垂涎ものです(*´艸`)ただ、弟子がみんな女の子で可愛い系で……という様式美は正直要らないかな。男子もたらし込んでるけど、雑だし。そんなに弟子たちも可愛く思えないし。しっかり戦闘ものだし、厳ついおっさんとかお兄さんとかをもっとたらし込んで欲しい。

This review contains spoilers. I'm unaware... but I really like the fact that it's after hard work. The gap between their normal appearance and their fighting appearance is really coveted (*'`) However, I honestly don't need the stylistic beauty where all of my apprentices are girls and cute... They're bringing in boys, but it's messy. I don't think the disciples are that cute either. It's a solid fight, and I want them to bring in more of a tough old man or older brother.
