等身大の男子高校生たちの群像劇。

A group drama of life-size male high school students.

This review contains spoilers. かなりの数の登場人物ですが、みんなそれぞれ悩みを抱えている男子高校生たちの群像劇。２巻では超絶やなヤツ土井の登場で、かなりイライラさせられましたが、それと同時に友達っていいなぁと思いました。淡々としている様ででも確実にいつも救ってくれる唯司を大和がもっと早く好きになってもいいんじゃないか？と思うくらい、唯司、かっこいいです！ちょっと恋が動いたかなぁと言う所で最後の登場人物！３巻で完結らしいので早く続きが読みたいです！

This review contains spoilers. There are quite a few characters, but it's a group drama about male high school students who all have their own problems. I was quite frustrated by the appearance of the transcendent guy Doi in volume 2, but at the same time, I thought it would be nice to have friends. Isn't it okay for Yamato to fall in love with Yuiji even though he seems indifferent and always saves him more quickly? Yuiji is so cool that I think! The last character to appear in the place where I wonder if love has moved a little bit! It seems to be complete in volume 3, so I want to read more soon!

BLというよりは

Rather than BL

This review contains spoilers. 少女漫画の世界観。大和がゲイだからBLテイストではあるけれど2巻まででサブキャラとのキスしかない。10代のキラキラ感、残酷さ、学校の閉塞感など既視感いっぱいで共感できる要素ばかりで作者様巧いなあ、と思いますが10代男子ってもっと性欲至上じゃないかな、とも思うので綺麗に纏めすぎ感も拭えず。恭介をオカズに自イでもしてくれていたらもっと腑に落ちたかもしれませんが…作者様の作風ではないんでしょうね（けしてエロ目ではありません笑）2巻は大和にとって辛い展開だったけれど大和も唯司もホントいいコだから見守りたい。いいな、と思う積み重ねが恋なら好きにならずにはいられない的な言葉が一巻にあったかと思いますが…だとしたら大和は唯司に恋して当然だよね。

This review contains spoilers. A worldview of girls' comics. Yamato is gay, so it has a BL taste, but until volume 2, there are only kisses with subcharacters. I think the author is clever with only elements that I can sympathize with with with a sense of deja vu, such as the sparkle of teenagers, cruelty, and sense of school blockage, etc., but I also think teenage boys have supremacy over sexual desire, so I can't get rid of the feeling of putting them together too neatly. It might have made more sense if they had taken Kyosuke to Okazu themselves... it's probably not the author's style (it's not erotic lol) Volume 2 was a painful development for Yamato, but both Yamato and Yuiji are really good, so I want to keep an eye on them. I think there was a saying in the first volume that you can't help falling in love if the accumulation of what you think is good is love... if that's the case, it's natural for Yamato to fall in love with Yuji.

高校ってこういうところだったな

High school was like this

友情とか友愛とか愛情とか青春とか、そういう言葉で簡単に言い表せない、なんとも言えない感情のぐるぐるがリアル。人とのかかわり、つながりの難しさ、素晴らしさが丁寧に描かれている作品。続きが読みたいし、番外編とかもあったら嬉しい。一部の悪役以外はみんな良いキャラしてて、友達になりたい。

The round and round of indescribable feelings that cannot be easily expressed in words such as friendship, fraternity, love, youth, etc., are real. This work carefully depicts relationships with people, the difficulty of connecting, and the awesomeness. I want to read more, and I would be happy if there were extra editions. Other than a few villains, they all have good characters, and I want to be friends.

文字が多い

Too many characters

絵が凄くキレイで感心しながら読みました。でも時々顔の見分けがつかなくなります。。文字が多いし内容が濃いので、時間があるときにじっくり読むのがオススメです。男子高校生のわちゃわちゃした感じってカワイイですよね。みんなイケメンだからBL感はないけどキュンキュンしました。

The picture was so beautiful and I read it with admiration. But sometimes I can't tell faces apart.. There are a lot of characters and the content is intense, so I recommend reading it carefully when you have time. The feeling of being messed up by a high school boy is cute, isn't it? They're all good-looking guys, so there's no BL feeling, but it made me cringe.

惹きこまれる

I'm drawn in

レビューを読んで気になり、まずは１巻を試しにと思い購入しました。もう読めば読むほど、話に惹き込まれていく感じでした。それぞれが恋愛や友達のこととか、いろんなことを真剣に考え悩みながらも前向きに進んでいく様子が丁寧に描かれています。なんでこんなにいい子たちばかりなんだろう。と姉のような母のような目線で読みながら、幸せを願わずにいられません。早く、続きを読みたいです。

I read the reviews and was curious, so I bought volume 1 to try it out first. I felt like the more I read, the more drawn to the story. It carefully depicts how each one progresses positively while seriously thinking and worrying about various things, such as love and friends. I wonder why there are so many good kids. I can't help but wish for happiness while reading it from the perspective of a mother like an older sister. I want to read more soon.

本当に素敵なお話です。リアルで、泣けてくる。エロ目的でBL読んでる方には合わないかもしれないですけど、ストーリー重視の方には本当におすすめです。

It's a really nice story. It's real and it makes me cry. It may not be suitable for those who read BL for erotic purposes, but I really recommend it to those who focus on stories.

いい人多すぎ！

Too many nice people!

なっちゃんがいい人すぎて、ある意味憧れる。長谷川はもちろんのこと。いっぱい悩んで、それでも、解決出来ないことや失敗すること、沢山あるし、味方ばかりではない、傷つくこともある。けど、そればかりでもなく、なっちゃんたちみたいに、そばにいてくれようとする人たちもいて、その人たちのことも忘れてはならない。支えあうことが大切なんだと、思った。泣きそう。

Nacchan is such a nice person, and I admire her in a sense. Hasegawa, of course. I'm worried a lot, and even so, there are a lot of things I can't solve or fail, and not only my allies, but there are times when I get hurt. But not only that, there are also people like Nacchan and the others who try to be by your side, and we must not forget those people. I thought it was important to support each other. I feel like crying.

これNHKあたりでドラマ化すんじゃね？ってくらいリアルなマイノリティDKとその周りのリアルなノーマルDKの交流。読んでて心臓バクバクする。これなんかの賞とれそう。

this is going to be made into a drama around NHK, right? It's such a realistic exchange between minority DK and the real normal DK around them. My heart flutters when I read it. This looks like it's going to win some kind of award.

大好き！

I love it!

田倉先生の作品は大好きで全て購入してるのですがこれが一番です！すごく丁寧に描かれてる作品でヤマトもユイジも男前過ぎます！途中イジワルなキャラも出てきますが基本みんなあったかい人達でとても優しい気持ちになれます。今は連載お休みしているので続きが読めるのはかなり先になると覚悟はしていますが続きを一番期待している作品です。

I love Takura-sensei's works and I've bought all of them, but this one is the best! It's a very carefully drawn work, and both Yamato and Yuiji are too handsome! There are some crazy characters along the way, but basically they are all warm people and I feel very kind. Serialization is currently on hiatus, so I'm prepared that it will be quite a while before I can read the continuation, but this is the work I'm most looking forward to.

自然に涙出た

I burst into tears naturally

ストーリーが「漫画」って感じがしない。絵を描く人が話を作ってる、って感じじゃなくて、勿論隅から隅まで絵は美麗なんだけど、作画も作話もプロって感じ。小説でも似たようなものは出来るだろうけど、でもどうしても間とか空気感って漫画みたいには行かないから、結果、この作品は「最高な形」だと思う。読んでて自然と涙が出て来て、自分でも驚いた。定価でも全然買う価値有ると思う。

The story doesn't feel like a “comic.” I don't feel like the person who draws the picture is creating the story; of course the pictures are beautiful from corner to corner, but I feel like they are professionals in drawing and storytelling. Something similar could be made in a novel, but since the space and atmosphere don't go like comics by any means, I think this work is “in the best shape.” As I read it, tears naturally came out, and I was surprised. I think it's totally worth buying even at full price.

とても良い

very good

立ち読みではまり、購入しました。絵も好きです。まだ1巻しか読んでないけど、とにかく良い。男子高校生の青春ストーリー。どろどろした感じがなくて、みんな爽やか。女子もかわいい。同級生がゲイであることを知り、自分なりに考えながら一緒に過ごしていく日々が、悩みもあるけどそれでこそ青春！って初々しくなりました。

I was stuck in standing reading and bought it. I like pictures too. I've only read volume 1 yet, but it's good anyway. A story about the youth of a high school boy. There was no mushy feeling, and everyone was refreshed. The girls are cute too. I learned that my classmate is gay, and the days we spend together while thinking in our own way are troubled, but that is what makes me young! It's now fresh.

BL未満のキュンキュンがたまりません！！

Kyun Kyun below BL is irresistible!!

高校生特有の大人にも子供にもなり切れないリリカルな部分が満載で、キュンキュンします。主人公の2人の周りのキャラがそれぞれいいポジショニングで話を盛り上げるので自然にお話に夢中になれます。普通のBL作品とは違ってスッゴイ読み応えがあるので、オススメです！！

It's full of lyrical parts unique to high school students where you can't become an adult or child, and it makes me cringe. The characters around the two main characters each have good positioning to liven up the story, so you can naturally fall in love with the story. Unlike normal BL works, it's really easy to read, so I recommend it!!

BLでは収まらない作品

Works that don't fit in BL

他の方も書いている通り、BLというよりは男子高校生の青春物語そのものという感じ。お話の展開がとても丁寧で、読み見応えがすごくありました。完結はまだまだ先になりそうですが続きが今一番待ち遠しい作品です。エロなしのストーリー重視作品をお探しの方にはおススメです。

As others have written, it feels like a youth story of a male high school student itself rather than a BL. The development of the story was very careful, and it was very impressive to read. It seems that the completion is still a long way off, but the continuation is the work I can't wait the most. I recommend it to anyone looking for a storyline without eroticism.

待ってました！！

I've been waiting!!

1巻が出た時は、久しぶりに「アタリだ！！！」と叫びました。SNSとかで(笑)それくらい面白くてドツボにハマる作品！！2巻の発売を今か今かと…首を長くして待っておりました。オリジナリティのあるストーリー、高校生らしい、無理のない時の流れ。現在は起承転結の「起承」くらいでしょうか？今まで他を向いていた主人公への(BLの)「L」がやっと走り始めました。3巻では「転」、主人公たちの関係が変わってしまう展開があるのではないかと予想しております。楽しみにしております！！！絶対におすすめ、読まなきゃ損です！！

When volume 1 came out, it was the first time in a long time that “it's Atari!!!” I shouted. It's such an interesting and addictive work on SNS (lol)! I've been waiting a long time for volume 2 to be released now or now... An original story, typical of a high school student, and a reasonable flow of time. Is it currently about the beginning and end of “succession”? “L” (by BL) to the protagonist, who had been facing the other until now, has finally started running. I anticipate that there will be a development in volume 3 where the relationships between the protagonists will change “Turn Around.” I'm looking forward to it!!! I definitely recommend it, it's a loss if you don't read it!!

今のところ、BLというよりも青春マンガを読んでる感じ。でも、歯がゆい感じとか結構好き！これからどうなるのか、期待してます。

Right now, I feel like I'm reading youth manga rather than BL. But I really like the feeling that my teeth are itchy! I'm looking forward to what will happen in the future.
