上巻と下巻で雰囲気がガラリと変わる

The atmosphere completely changes between volume 1 and volume 2

まだ1度しか読んでないのですが、おもしろかったので勢いのままレビューすると、上巻と下巻で別の話を読んでるの？と思うくらい雰囲気が全然ちがいました。上巻はシリアス、下巻はラブコメって感じです。上巻はゲイであることを隠し要領よく生きてきた兎太がメイン、下巻はコミュ障童貞魔法使いだった生亀がメインだからかもしれません。なかなか儘ならない生き方をしてきた2人がようやく向き合うには長い時間を共に過ごすことと気持ちを伝え合うことが必要だったんだなと思います。時系列を整理しながらもう一度読み返してみようと思います。

I've only read it once yet, but it was so interesting that when I review it with momentum, are you reading different stories in the first volume and the second volume? The atmosphere was completely different, to the extent that I thought. The first volume is serious, and the second volume feels like a romantic comedy. Maybe that's because the first volume is mainly about Uta, who has lived a good life by hiding that he is gay, and the second volume is mainly about Ikame, who was a community disabled virgin wizard. I think it was necessary to spend a long time together and communicate their feelings in order for the two people who have lived a less comfortable way of life to finally face each other. I think I'll reread it again while organizing the time series.

２人のペース

Pace for 2 people

一緒に住むって本当に楽しいよりも苦労とかストレスの方が多いよね……どう理解してもらうとか折り合いをつけるかって考えることすらもめんどくさい！って思った私と同じことを思ったこの２人の生活に同感し、この２人が意識していく成長過程が本当に微笑ましかったです！あと言えるのは２人の結婚式が見たかったです！！それと家族との関係はどうなったのでしょうか？気になります！！

Living together is more difficult and stressful than really fun... even thinking about how to get them to understand and come to terms with each other is a hassle! I sympathized with the lives of these two people who thought the same thing as me, and the growth process these two became aware of really made me smile! All I can say is that I wanted to see their wedding!! What happened to that relationship with the family? I'm curious!!

はわー！幸せ〜

Wow! happy~

レスでもだもだと遠回りしている間に、ふたりとも自分でいちばん大切なことに気づけるようになって、人間的に成長もして、そしてハッピーにレス解消もできて更に想い合えるように…！読み終えた今、多幸感が溢れて胸がいっぱいです。ほんとよかったなぁ。あっという間に上下巻読み終えました。素敵な作品をありがとうございました〜！

While they were taking a detour with wrestling, they were both able to notice the most important thing about themselves, grow humanly, and be able to happily resolve their wrestling, so they can feel even more together...! Now that I've finished reading it, my heart is full of euphoria. I'm really glad. I finished reading the top and bottom volumes in no time. Thank you so much for your wonderful work~!

泣けた〜

it made me cry~

This review contains spoilers. 兎太のもだもだぐるぐる考えて、うまくいかないことが大半なところに共感してしまった。兎太、周りを考えればこその拗らせだったんだよなぁ。生亀さんの愛ある斜めな突っ走りと兎太のぐるぐるが最後にやっと合わさって「特別なたった一人」って告白に繋がる流れが絶妙すぎました。その後も可愛すぎました。「ほんとよかったねぇぇっ」って思えるハッピーエンドでした。

This review contains spoilers. I thought round and round about Uta's momo, and I sympathized with most things that didn't go well. Uta was relentless only when he thought about his surroundings. The flow where Mr. Ikame's Lovable Oblique Run and Usagi's round and round finally came together, leading to a “special only person” confession was too exquisite. It was too cute even after that. It was a happy ending that made me think, “That was really good!”

屁理屈多いけど、かえって面白かった

There's a lot of nonsense, but it was rather interesting

進行形の両片思いを、心情思考系で描かれてるのが面白かった。ゆえに屁理屈モノローグが多めなんだけど、実際頭ん中って大事な事ほどそうやって考えを行ったり来たりしながらこねくり回して、それから言語化してるよなーって思った。多めのモノローグの合間にコミカルな絵やキュンとするコマがふんだんに散りばめられているのでわりと読みやすい。ぐるぐるしながらアップダウン激しいけど、だからこそ出た答には俄然応援したくなる。でこぼこしながらも、一番幸せな形に着地できて良かった346………結婚がテーマなのかな？結婚についても別角度から深掘っていて面白かった。実際、ゼクシィでもマイノリティ特集を掲載する時代だしね。それでも外から見えないだけで男尊女卑の家庭って今でも有りそう。そういう事も考えさせられたり。ちょっと変化球な、すれ違いBLだった。

It was interesting that both unrequited love in progressive form were depicted in an emotional thinking system. Therefore, there are a lot of nonsense monologues, but I actually thought that the more important things in my head are, the more important things are, kneaded around while going back and forth, and then verbalized. There are plenty of comical pictures and funny frames scattered between the many monologues, so it's pretty easy to read. The ups and downs are intense while going round and round, but that's why I really want to cheer for the answers that came up. Even though it's bumpy, I'm glad I was able to land in the happiest shape 346... I wonder if marriage is the theme? It was interesting that they also dug deep into marriage from a different angle. Actually, it's an age where even Zexy posts special features on minorities. Even so, it seems that there are still families where men are superior to women just because they can't be seen from the outside. It also made me think about things like that. It was a bit of a changing ball; it was a passing BL.

ラブ

Love

ハッピーエンドラブ。めちゃくちゃ遠回りラブです。先生の作品の中では、1番ピュアラブかな。エロがメインじゃなく、メンタル重視で話が進む感じ。丁寧にお互いの想いを描いてくれています。絵も綺麗なのでオススメです?

Happy ending love. It's an insanely roundabout love. Among the teacher's works, it's probably the purest love. It feels like the story progresses with a mental focus instead of eroticism as the main focus. They carefully depict each other's feelings. The pictures are beautiful too, so would you recommend it?

長かった

It was a long time

恋人未満の二人の同棲物語。受けは生き方を拗らせてて、攻めは人間関係を切り捨てていた。でも攻めは最初から受けにだけに興味を示していましたね。長い時間を経てお互いの思いが通じた後のHはよかった。修正白抜き。

A story about two people less than lovers living together. The reception was relentless in their way of life, and the attack cut off human relationships. But they only showed interest in receiving the attack from the beginning. H was great after a long time and our feelings came through with each other. Corrective white out.

思ってたのと違ったけど…

it wasn't what I thought, but...

どちらかというとどうして二人がこうなったかのほうが長くて、その後は突っ走ったかんじのハッピーエンドでした！イチャイチャラブラブなんだけどどこか甘さに欠ける感がありますがそれも二人らしくていいのかなぁ(笑)全体的に面白かったです☆

If anything, it took longer to figure out why the two of them became like this, and it was a happy ending where they just ran wild! They're flirtatious, but there's a feeling that they lack sweetness, but I wonder if it's okay for the two of them too (lol) Overall it was interesting ☆

丁寧故モダつく1巻、だからこそ大感動の2

Volume 1 with careful moderation, and that's why I'm so moved

2巻のクライマックスにかけて、ジワジワと心が温められていき涙涙でした。。でもこの2巻の大感動は、1巻のモダモダ感があったからこそです。どうか2巻だけ読まず、1巻から読んでほしい。確かに、「あれ？これどこまで過去回想？」って不安になるけど、大丈夫。2巻を読み終わる頃には、そんなこと気にならなくなるくらい温かな気持ちになってクスッと笑って泣けているはずです。激しくストーリーが展開していくBLも素敵だけど、ここまで緩やかに、そして2人の関係性が丁寧に描かれたBLってなかなかないのでは…と思います。温かい気持ちになりたい時や、なんだか寂しいときに読むと、明日誰かに優しくなれそうな気がする、そんな素敵なお話でした。

My heart was warmed up over the climax of volume 2, and I was in tears.. But I was so moved by volume 2 because volume 1 had a modern feel. Please don't just read volume 2, I want you to start with volume 1. Certainly, “huh? How far back is this?” It makes me anxious, but that's fine. By the time you finish reading volume 2, you'll feel so warm that you don't care about that, and you'll be laughing and crying. BL, where the story unfolds violently, is also wonderful, but I don't think there are many BLs where the relationship between the two is drawn so slowly and carefully... It was such a wonderful story that I read when I wanted to feel warm or when I was somewhat lonely, and I felt like I could be kind to someone tomorrow.

入れ子構造

nested structure

This review contains spoilers. マトリョーシカ人形みたいにひとつ開けると次の子が出てくる、また出てくる、まだあんの？上下巻の上だけで既に多重構造になった現在と過去、ウサギ（兎太）とカメ（生亀）のキャラの深みに落とされていくような。初読み作家様だったのですが、今までどうして知らなかったんだろう？結婚情報誌制作関連の仕事をしている兎太と、中途入社の年上部下、生亀。40p目の兎太の片目涙とか、通常のblとはちょっとずつ違う表現に掴まれてしまいました。男が好きな自分を認められず、かといって同棲していた彼女との結婚にも踏み切れず、とうとうあんなことが起きてしまった兎太。家庭環境のせいか、人と心触れ合わす機会も無く、人間的に欠落していた生亀。成り行きでその後一緒に暮らし始めた男2人。繊細な絵と繊細な心情の追い方。挟み込まれるデフォルメの効いた絵も、綺麗系な絵も大好きなんですが、冒頭シーンに戻ってくるまでの行きつ戻りつが切なくて長くて。どこに行き着くのかわからなくなってきた頃、下巻の中ほどすぎてやっと冒頭のシーンに。同じシーンなのに、もう上巻の時とは全然違う見え方。だって彼らの1年半を、なんならもっと長い年月を知ってしまったから。いやもうほんと、どこに行くのこの2人？とは最後まで思いましたけど、泣きましたよ。ストーリーの回収、上手いでしょ。思いがけずスパダリ製造機になった兎太、今度こそ幸せになるのよ〜。

This review contains spoilers. If you open one like a matryoshka doll, the next one will come out, will it come out again, is it still there? The present and past, which have already had multiple structures just above the upper and lower volumes, seem to be dropped into the depths of the characters rabbit (rabbit) and turtle (raw turtle). I was a first-time reader writer, so why didn't I know that until now? Uta, who works related to the production of marriage information magazines, and Ikame, a senior junior who joined the company mid-career. Little by little, I was caught by expressions that were slightly different from normal BL, such as Uta's tears in one eye at 40p. The man didn't recognize who he liked, and even though he couldn't get married to the girlfriend he had lived with, that kind of thing finally happened. Perhaps because of their home environment, raw turtles lacked humanity because of their lack of opportunity to interact with people. By chance, the two men began living together after that. Delicate pictures and a way to pursue delicate feelings. I love both the deformed pictures that are sandwiched between them and the pretty ones, but the back and forth process until I came back to the opening scene was so long and painful. When I didn't know where I was going to end up, I was past the middle of the second volume and finally got to the opening scene. Even though it's the same scene, it looks completely different from when it was in the first volume. That's because I've known them for a year and a half, maybe even longer. No, really, where are these two going? I thought about that until the end, but then I cried. You're good at collecting stories, aren't you? Uta, who unexpectedly became a spadari manufacturing machine, will be happy this time around.

This review contains spoilers. dense. It's a great read. So many emotions swirl through me that it takes courage to reread it again after a while. Your chest will be full. It makes me wonder if there are times when it's difficult to just love someone you like. When I was a student, the songs in the library were so sad... I like Iki, whose heart moves when she sees him and feels happy. As I read it, it made me want to cry too. My boss and ex-girlfriend are all nice people. It's a comic, but I think I'm happy from the bottom of my heart. I want to read the continuation, I want you to read Happy Afterwards.

毎日毎日我慢の限界

The limit of patience every day

まさか高校時代の淡い思いの相手の兎太に転職先で出会いびっくりした生亀リョウ。2年も同棲していた彼女に同性しか抱けないから分かれてほしいと言い刺された兎太を助ける時男と抱き合いたいと言われ思わず自分が抱きますと言った生亀。そしてその後同居して脱童貞してからは生亀は恋人と思っていたが元彼女と話しているのをコッソリ聞いていると恋人ごっこみたいな人がいると聞きなんか納得出来ない生亀は一人になる事は嫌だと思い一生懸命兎太兎太に尽くす事で離れられない関係になる様に色々と頑張った。お互い好きになってるのにすれ違う二人。元カノが結婚するのを聞き花嫁達に協力してもらいプロポーズするが喜ぶどころかまだ付き合ってもいないのにいきなりのプロポーズにびっくりして改めて自分達の関係を話し合うことになった。じっくり話したらお互い両思いになっていたとわかりやっと幸せに抱き合い愛を確信できた。それからは愛し合う二人はすっ恋人としての毎日が始まる。良かったね。幸せになってね。

Ikame Ryo was surprised to meet his partner, Tota, whom he had a faint heart with in high school, when he changed jobs. Her girlfriend, who had been living together for 2 years, said she wanted them to split up because they only had the same sex, and when she helped Tota, who was stabbed, she said she wanted to hug a man, and unwittingly said that she would hold her. And after that, they lived together and got rid of their virginity, I thought that Ikame was my lover, but when I was listening to them talking to her ex, I heard that there were people pretending to be lovers, and Ikame, who was not convinced, thought she didn't want to be alone, and they worked hard so that they had an inseparable relationship by devoting themselves so hard to Usata. The two fell in love with each other but passed by. I heard that my ex-girlfriend was getting married, and the brides cooperated with them to propose, but far from being happy, I was surprised by the sudden proposal even though we haven't even been in a relationship yet, and we decided to discuss our relationship again. After talking carefully, I understood that they had mutual feelings for each other, and finally we were able to hug each other happily and be convinced of our love. After that, the two, who are in love with each other, begin every day as lovers. That was great. Be happy.

カッコイイ攻め×可愛い受けではありません

It's not a cool attack x cute reception

This review contains spoilers. 初読みの作家さん、試し読みに惹かれて読んだ作品、2巻で読み応えあり、走りも弛みもなく完成してます。でも、レスのカップルがモダモダからのハッピーエンド…かと想像してましたが、THE・BLという感じではなかったです。ノンケ攻めも、ゲイ受けも、最上級に性格が面倒くさい。なので、ストーリーもキャラもゆるふわな方に属しているはずなのに、なんだか可愛さとは反対側にいます。退院したての怪我人の荷物を、持ってあげることすら出来ないダメンズのリョウと、普通でなければとs/exが出来ない女性と結婚しようとする兎太。面倒くさい×2なので、二人はここぞという時に間違える。気持ちが通じず残念なことに。でも、こういう気が利かないとか、悩める男子の方が、スパダリとかよりリアルなのかも。素敵な攻め様と可愛い受けさんとは何か違う、BLらしさを楽しもうとすると物足りない。けれど、リョウと兎太の物語として読むと面白いのです。二人の面倒な心情も理解出来るし、家族含めた脇キャラ達の、毒も含めて分かりやすい。女性漫画くくりでもアリかも〜、と思います。でも、ちゃんとBLしてますので。

This review contains spoilers. The writer read it for the first time, the work I read because I was attracted to the trial reading, is satisfying to read in 2 volumes, and it has been completed without running or slack. But I was imagining that the wrestler couple would have a happy ending from Moda... but it wasn't like THE・BL. His personality is bothersome at the highest level, whether it's attacking nonsense or being gay. So, even though both the story and characters are supposed to belong to the laid-back and fluffy person, they're somehow on the opposite side of cuteness. Damens' Ryo, who can't even carry the luggage of an injured person who has just been discharged from the hospital, and Uta is about to marry a woman who can't s/ex unless normal. It's bothersome x 2, so the two make mistakes when they're in a hurry. Unfortunately, my feelings didn't come through. But maybe this kind of unconscious and troubled boy is more real than Spadari or the like. It's not enough if you try to enjoy BL's uniqueness, which is something different from a nice attack style and a cute take-san. However, it's interesting to read it as a story about Ryo and Uta. I can also understand the troublesome feelings of the two, and it's easy to understand the side characters, including their families, including poison. I think it might be a good idea if it's a female comic book. But I'm doing BL properly.

上下巻一気読み。エチレス同棲から始まる

Read the upper and lower volumes at once. It starts with Ethyles' cohabitation

This review contains spoilers. 新刊作者さん買い。上巻発売画像少し経って下巻も発売されて、上下巻揃って一気読み。雑誌連載は2018年からだったので3年間かけて完結してます。作者さんは小説の挿絵もたくさん描かれているので決め絵ポーズがとても素敵。ARUKU先生原作でコウキ。先生作画の叙情SF「君の夢を見ている」はぜひ読んでもらいたいのですが、この作品もなかなかどうして、とっても良かった。作者さんの三兄弟シリーズはオープンな兄弟が少し突き抜けてて合わない人いるかなと思ったけど、この上下巻は万人にオススメできますよ。時系列で描かれてなくて、ノンケと同棲しててハッピーなはずだけどずっとエチレス、これ同棲の意味あるの？っていう現在から、どうして同棲に至ったかっていう過去へ遡っていくので、少し複雑な構成になってます。でもそこが良いんですよ〜。雑誌で追ってた方は苦労したかもしれないけど、単行本で一気に読めて幸せ。年上部下×年下上司なので、言葉遣いや関係が複雑です。年上部下にだけみえる年下上司のウサギ耳(名前が兎太なので)やウサギ型吹き出しも可愛い〜。ダメダメから1年間で変わってく元DT年上部下さんの努力とその理由とか、男一人の末っ子生まれで苦労してる年下上司くんが、躾すぎてしまった結果言葉足らずで困ったことになったとか、そういう行き違いも面白い。途中少しショッキングなシーンがあって(苗字が阿部って言えばあーそうだよねーってなる)、その後赦してしまうの確かに凄いなって思う、でもダブル不倫を描いた別作者さんの女性漫画ジャンル他作品で同じような事があっても赦してたし、私的には納得。まだレビュー少ないのは上下巻で手出しにくいのかな。作者さんの作品の中では、「君の夢を見ている」と同じくらい、ぜひ読んでもらいたいな〜

This review contains spoilers. Buy the author of the new book. Shortly after the first volume release image, the second volume was also released, and I read the upper and lower volumes all at once. The magazine series started in 2018, so it took 3 years to complete. The author has also drawn a lot of illustrations for the novel, so the decisive picture pose is very nice. Kouki based on the ARUKU sensei story. I definitely want people to read the lyrical sci-fi “Seeing Your Dream” drawn by the teacher, but for some reason, this work was also really good. I was wondering if there were people who wouldn't fit in the author's Three Brothers series because the open siblings were a little bit out of place, but I can recommend these upper and lower volumes to everyone. It's not depicted in chronological order, and they're supposed to be happy living with Nonke, but Ethyles the whole time, does this have meaning of cohabiting? The structure is a bit complicated because it goes back from the present to the past where they came to cohabitation. But that's good. Those who followed it in magazines may have had a hard time, but I'm happy to be able to read it all at once in a book. They're older and younger x younger bosses, so the wording and relationships are complicated. The younger boss's rabbit ears (since the name is Usagi) and rabbit shaped speech bubbles that can only be seen by the older generation are cute. Misunderstandings such as the efforts of the former DT senior and junior, who changed in 1 year from bad to bad, and the fact that the younger boss, who was born the youngest son of one man and is struggling, was in trouble due to lack of words as a result of being too disciplined, are also interesting. There was a slightly shocking scene along the way (if I said my last name was Abe, that's right), and I certainly think it would be amazing to forgive them afterwards, but I was able to forgive them even if something similar happened in a female manga genre or other work by another author depicting a double affair, and I'm personally convinced. There are still few reviews, so it's probably hard to get your hands on the upper and lower volumes. Among the author's works, I definitely want people to read it as much as “I'm Seeing Your Dream” ~

The stage

長年勤めてた会社が舞台だったので、それが気になって仕方なかったですが笑、とてもステキな作品でした。恋愛する2人の心理描写がとてもリアルですごく身近に感じることができました。

It was set at a company I worked for for many years, so I couldn't help but be curious about that lol, it was such a wonderful film. The psychological depiction of two people in love was so realistic that I was able to feel very close.
