人としての在り方を考えさせられた?

made me think about how to be as a person?

すごく丁寧で心の描写が切なくて苦しい。好きな子にそっと触れてしまう健気さに涙?みんなのあったかい心や友情が刺さって涙?自分の自由にならないのが心なんだよね。他人の心も自由にできない。さらに自分が自分を好きになれない時はどうしたらいい？繊細で多感なDKに起こる小さな波紋が広がって、みんなの心に小さな波を立てる。そんな時自分だったらどうするだろう。そんなことをまじめに考えてしまいました?２巻までエッチなところはありません。マイノリティDKと友人の信頼とか友情とか恋とか、繊細でリアルに、丁寧で大切に描かれています。どうか続編を！待っています！

It's so careful and the depiction of my heart is sad and painful. tears over the energy of gently touching a child you like? everyone's warm heart and friendship stabbed me to tears? It's the heart that doesn't let itself be free, isn't it? Nor can someone else's heart be free. Furthermore, what should I do when I don't like myself? The small ripples that occur in the delicate and sensitive DK spread, causing small waves in everyone's hearts. What would I do if I were myself in such a situation. Have I seriously thought about that? There's nothing naughty until volume 2. Minority DK and friends' trust, friendship, and love are depicted delicately, realistically, carefully, and carefully. A sequel please! I'm waiting!

とても良い

very good

読み応えあって凄く良かった。色々考えさせられるしなかなか続きが出ないようですが丁寧に進んでる感じがして好き。

It was really nice that it was a good read. It makes me think about a lot of things, and it doesn't seem like the continuation comes out easily, but I like it because it feels like it's progressing carefully.

久々に読み返して

Reread it after a long time

やっぱりいいよ！！！BL色はあまりなく、他の人も書いてるけどどちらかというとLGBTの話なのかもしれないけど、諸々含めて本当に話としていいのです。だからこそ色々決着つけて欲しいので、頼むから続きくださーーーーい！！！！

After all it's good!!! There aren't many BL colors, and other people have written it, but maybe it's an LGBT story, but you can really include everything. That's why I want things to be settled, so please continue!!!!

これはぜひ読んでもらいたい作品

This is a work I definitely want you to read

This review contains spoilers. どんなドキドキきゅんきゅんがあるんだろうとワクワクしながら一巻二巻を同時購入。だけど、いい意味で期待を裏切られました。中身がとてつもなく深い。なんて言えばいいんでしょうか…。同性愛のリアルが描かれている、というか。この作品で1番リアルだなと思ったのがカミングアウトされた側が「偏見とかないから！応援するよ！」みたいな上っ面の言葉を一切吐かないところです。最初は戸惑い、それでも中身を友として好きになり大切な存在になっていく。すごくリアルで引き込まれました。実際に私の友人にも同性愛の方がいますが、カミングアウトされた時、やはり、不安と戸惑いが凄かった、と言われました。その時の友人と、この漫画の登場人物がすごく重なって、懐かしさと彼らのことを思うと切なさも感じました。ただのBL漫画じゃないなって思います。ドキドキきゅんきゅんは二巻までほぼありませんが、読んで後悔はしない作品です。最近読んだ漫画全般の中で私は1番印象に残りました。素敵な作品をありがとうございます。

This review contains spoilers. I was excited to see what kind of Doki Doki Kyun Kyun would be and bought volume 1 and 2 at the same time. But I was disappointed in a good way. The contents are extremely deep. What should I say... I mean, the reality of homosexuality is depicted. What I thought was most realistic about this work was that the one who came out said, “Because there's no prejudice! I'm rooting for you!” It's a place where I don't spit out any blatant words like that. I was confused at first, but even so, I fell in love with the contents as a friend and became an important presence. It was so real and I was drawn in. In fact, some of my friends are homosexual, but when they came out, I was told that they were still very anxious and confused. My friend at that time and the characters in this comic really overlapped, and I felt nostalgia and sadness when I thought about them. I don't think it's just a BL comic. There are almost no two volumes of Doki Doki Kyun Kyun, but it's a work you won't regret reading. Of all the comics I've read recently, it left the biggest impression on me. Thank you for your wonderful work.

恋せずにはいられないから…

Because I can't help but fall in love...

のみ×しばにすっかり心を奪われて作者買い。どちらかと言えば紙派の私。なかなか手に入らず待望の２冊がやって来ました。６年ほど前の作品で、その３年後にやっと2巻刊行。まだ未完結で、次はいつになるのやら。かなり貴重な作品です。何事にもデリケートな思春期。その大事な時期に抱える性的マイノリティの問題で、シビアなテーマです。ゲイであるが故の苦悩、葛藤、罪悪感、孤独感。偏見や差別が多い世の中で、きれい事だけでは済まない現実が突き付けられる事は耐え難く、読んでいて切ない。だけど、BLを楽しむと同時に抱える問題の理解を深めたいとつくづく思います。本人が一番辛いのですが、その性癖を知ってしまった周りの人たちも、いろんな葛藤を持ちながら悩んでしまいますよね。ただの傍観者にはなりきれず、理解者であろうとする子たちも並大抵の事じゃない。作品中で、仲間内でバカやって笑って騒ぐ姿がかえって印象的に映ります。いつまでもこうやって笑い合えたらいいのにねぇ…『こいものがたり』としての完結が、想像がつかず楽しみです。恋せずにはいられない。希望が見えてくるといいな。早く３巻が発売される日を願うばかりです。最後にみんなバカやって笑ってて欲しい。

I was completely captivated by Nomi × Shibani and bought the author. If anything, I'm a paper person. The two long-awaited books that were hard to come by have arrived. It was a work from about 6 years ago, and 2 volumes were finally published 3 years later. It's still unfinished, so I wonder when the next one will be. It's a pretty valuable piece. Adolescence is delicate about everything. It's a sexual minority issue faced during that critical period, and it's a severe theme. Pain, conflict, guilt, and loneliness due to being gay. In a world where there is a lot of prejudice and discrimination, it is unbearable to be confronted with a reality where pretty things are not enough, and it's sad to read. However, I continue to want to enjoy BL and at the same time deepen my understanding of the problems I face. It's the hardest for the person himself, but the people around him who have learned about that sexual habit also struggle while having various conflicts, don't they? Children who can't just be bystanders and try to understand are not unusual. In the film, the sight of them laughing and making noise with their friends is rather impressive. I wish we could laugh like this forever... I can't imagine the ending as “Koi Monogatari,” and I'm looking forward to it. I can't help but fall in love. I hope I can see hope. I can only hope that the 3rd volume will be released soon. I want everyone to laugh silly at the end.

よかったです

I'm glad

This review contains spoilers. 2巻まで読みました。BLというより人と人との関係について考えさせられました(BLゆえの内容ですが)。高校生にしては、悪役も含めて登場人物が大人すぎ、悟りすぎな気もします。考え方も立ち回り方も大人です。悪役も、自分の感情をきちんと把握しているので、分かりやすい。大和に信頼できる仲間がいてみんな大人なのも、悪役が馬鹿じゃないのも現実と夢が融合していて私は好きです。最後どうなるか楽しみです。

This review contains spoilers. I've read up to 2 volumes. It made me think about relationships between people rather than BL (although the content is because of BL). For a high school student, the characters, including the villain, are too adult, and I feel like they're too enlightened. The way they think and fight is an adult. The villains also have a proper grasp of their own emotions, so it's easy to understand. I like the fact that Yamato has reliable friends and they are all adults, and that the villains aren't stupid are a fusion of reality and dreams. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens at the end.

これがBLの現実なのかと

I wonder if this is the reality of BL

This review contains spoilers. すごくリアル。BLって何やかんや良いように環境が整ってる。こいものがたりは唯司みたいに寄り添ってくれる人もいるけど、自分わかってるよ！って勝手に思い上がってる人、傍観者、面白半分でからかってくる奴、色々いる。決して都合の良い環境じゃないけど、それでも頑張る大和を応援したくなる。そして田倉先生の心理描写がすごい。一つ一つ本当に丁寧で、何故か涙が出てくる。本当にすごい。個人的には唯司の「さみしい終わりがあるなんて思わなかった」の表現が好き。…あー辛い。3巻までゆっくり待ちたい作品です。

This review contains spoilers. It's so real. What kind of kettle is BL and the environment is prepared so that it's good. There are people who snuggle up to me like Yuiji in Koi Monogatari, but I know that! There are a lot of people who are selfishly excited, bystanders, and people who make fun of me. It's definitely not a convenient environment, but it still makes me want to support Yamato, who works hard. Also, Takura-sensei's psychological depiction is amazing. They were really careful one by one, and for some reason I burst into tears. It's really amazing. Personally, I like Yuiji's expression “I never thought there would be a lonely end.” ... ah, that's painful. It's a work I want to wait slowly until volume 3.

すごく繊細な綺麗な話でした

It was a very delicate and beautiful story

この話しは、もし私の近くにゲイの人がいたら少しは気持ちを分かってあげられるのかなぁーと思えるぐらい、繊細に揺れる心が描写してあり、綺麗な物語でした。馬鹿馬鹿しいBLが多いけど、これは自分の中の偏見などを考えさせられました。この作家さんの話はどれも、綺麗で好きです。エッチな描写はほとんど無いけど、是非読んでほしい一冊です。?

This story was a beautiful story, depicting my heart shaking so delicately that I thought if there were gay people close to me, I wonder if they could understand my feelings a little bit. There are a lot of ridiculous BLs, but this made me think about my own biases. All of this writer's stories are beautiful and I like them. There are almost no naughty descriptions, but this is one book I definitely want you to read.?

何となく購入しましたが、ストーリーがなんかもう嗚呼.......っ感じでヒューマンドラマでも見てるような一気に読んでしまって、なんて言うか嗚呼って感じです!!!!!!!!!!!(語彙力の皆無)色々考えさせられましたし、勉強になりました!!!!!!!!!!!嗚呼.......ああゆう嫌な奴って絶対クラスに1人はいるよなーって。人間力って大事だなーって思いました！

Somehow I bought it, but it felt like the story was already ooh... and I read it all at once like I was watching a human drama, and I feel like I'm saying it!!!!!!! (No vocabulary at all) It made me think about a lot of things, and it was a learning experience!!!!!!! Oh my god... there's definitely one guy in my class that I don't like. I thought human power was important!

どう言えばいいのだろう？

What should I say?

This review contains spoilers. ブックマークして安売り狙ってました。今1巻を読んだところです。いい年をして、最近BLに興味をもって、その関連から同性愛の現実についてもいろいろ調べたりしていたんですが、青春の時期をやり過ごす間が特に、辛い感じを受けました。それを感じ取る主人公がいる。感じ取る第三者が居ることで、救われるのかな？それとも追い詰められるのかな？2巻とそれ以降の「こいものがたり」をあえてゆっくりじっくり読んでいこうと思います。⚫️2巻目、読みました。「感じとる第三者(たち)」がいたおかげで、ピンチを切り抜けられたんですね。でも、それは直接助けられた訳ではなく、支えられることによって自ら動けたんですが。真面目すぎで自己肯定感が低かった大和くんが、あのように「正々堂々」嘘をつけるなんて、むちゃくちゃびっくりしました。意外過ぎ、でも多分きちんと成長していて一番良い方法だった。それでも自らの心を壊してないか、心配は残るが…。さらに、今度好きになった相手は…って、お互い思慮深すぎて、ハードルむちゃくちゃ高くない？堪能できたけれど、次へのドキドキがハードすぎる第２巻でした…。あ、他の作家さんにも言えることだけれど、最初の味わいのあるタッチが変わってしまっているのが残念でした。。

This review contains spoilers. I bookmarked it and was aiming for bargain sales. I've just read volume 1. I had a good age, and recently became interested in BL, and I was doing various research on the reality of homosexuality in relation to that, but I felt particularly difficult while I spent my youth. There is a protagonist who can sense that. Can we be saved by having a third party who can sense it? Or will they be cornered? I'm going to dare to read volume 2 and “Koi Monogatari” slowly and carefully. ⚫️ I read volume 2. Thanks to the presence of a “third party (us) who can sense,” we were able to get through the pinch. But that didn't mean I was directly helped; I was able to move on my own by being supported. I was really surprised that Yamato-kun, who was too serious and had a low sense of self-affirmation, told such a “fair and honest” lie. It was too surprising, but I was probably growing properly and it was the best method. Even so, I'm still worried that I haven't broken my heart... Furthermore, isn't the person you've fallen in love with this time... they're both too thoughtful and the hurdles are insanely high? I was able to enjoy it, but the excitement for the next one was too hard volume 2... Oh, as can be said for other artists, it was a pity that the initial savory touch had changed.

とにかく関係性がエモい

Anyway, the relationship is emo

BL漫画というより、LGBTを題材に描いてる漫画かなと思う感じの雰囲気です。今のところ。まだ2巻しか出ていないので恋愛要素はまだまだこれからかな。今のところ友情がメイン。たくさんBL漫画読んできましたが、好きなBL漫画トップ3に食い込むくらい面白いです。早く続きを出して欲しいです。男性でも、BL初心者でも読める作品だと思います。心理描写がとてもリアルで細かく丁寧で感動しました。

The atmosphere feels like it's a comic drawn on LGBT subjects rather than a BL comic. for now. There are only 2 volumes out yet, so I wonder if the romance elements are still yet to come. Friendship is the main thing so far. I've read a lot of BL comics, and it's so interesting that it cuts into the top 3 BL comics I like. I want the continuation to come out soon. I think it's a work that both men and BL beginners can read. I was moved by how realistic, detailed, and careful the psychological depiction was.

半額の時に買ったのに、やっとやっと読みました!!って言うか完結してたと思い込んでました。まだ完結じゃなかった…男子高校生のゲイを隠してくことに悩んだり、恋愛ごとに悩んだり…と思い悩む葛藤の心理描写が、ホントに高校生？と感じさせられました。土井以外、皆いい人達ばかり。青春を謳歌してる!!えっちはないけど、もうストーリーに引き込まれました。３巻が待ち遠しいです。

I bought it when it was half price and I finally read it!! Or rather, I thought it was complete. It wasn't complete yet... is the psychological depiction of a male high school student struggling to hide his homosexuality, worrying about every love affair... is it really a high school student? It made me feel that. Other than Doi, they are all nice people. I'm enjoying my youth!! There's no such thing, but I'm already drawn into the story. I can't wait for volume 3.

中身が濃い

The filling is thick

リアルさが凄い。BLの視点だけでなく、この世代の心理が細かく描かれていて、ストーリーに引き込まれます。様々な考え、感じ方があって、その中で自分はどう生きるか。どう戦うか。どんな仲間ができるか。傷つきながら、悩みながら影響しあいながら成長していく姿に胸が熱くなります。

The realism is amazing. Not only the BL viewpoint, but also the psychology of this generation is depicted in detail, and you are drawn into the story. There are various ways of thinking and feeling, and how do I live my life in the midst of them? How are we going to fight? What kind of friends can we make? My heart is heated by the sight of them growing while being hurt, worrying, and influencing each other.

青春の心の機微

The subtleties of the heart of youth

作者さん買いですが、やっぱりこの作者さんの作品は素晴らしいです。読んでうっひゃーです。会話やモノローグが多くて、登場人物みな悩んで踠いていて、現実にあってもおかしくない、きっと高校時代の友人だったらこんな風になるかもなという静かな青春の日々が描かれてます。エチ要素全くありません。でも、所々のチークキスとか、突然の告白とか、まじ萌えます。次巻で最終巻だとか。まだ連載中のようで、続きが読めるのはいつの日か。。。それまで死なないようにします。

I bought it by the author, but after all, this author's work is amazing. it's amazing to read it. There is a lot of dialogue and monologues, and all the characters are worried, and it depicts quiet days of youth where it's not strange even if they were real, and they would surely be like this if they were high school friends. There is no ethi element at all. But the cheek kisses here and there, and the sudden confessions are really irking. It seems like the next volume is the last volume. It looks like it's still being serialized, so when will I be able to read the continuation... I'll make sure I don't die until then.

この作品に出会えてよかった

I'm glad I came across this work

こんなにリアリティに溢れて切なくて、でも愛おしくなる作品ははじめてです。数々のBL作品を嗜んできましたが、もうこんな良質なBLには出逢えないかもしれないとまで思ったほど。言い方は悪いですがBLは即物的なエロが売れやすいのでそちらに特化した作品が多い中で、この作品はゆっくりと男同士が恋に落ちていく過程が描かれている。心理描写が丁寧で展開が極自然。２巻の時点でエロはないですが、それ以上に萌えがすごい！読んでいてキュンキュンします。こんなのはじめて！（笑）映画化してほしいくらいです。３巻までまた時間が空きそうですが、終わってほしくない寂しさも手伝っていつまでも待っていられそう。できれば二人の関係を長く見守っていきたい。本当にこの作品に出会えてよかったと心の底から思いました。

This is my first work that is so realistic and sad, yet so adorable. I've enjoyed a number of BL works, and I even thought I might not be able to find such a good BL again. It's a bad way of saying it, but since BL sells instantaneous erotica easily, there are many works that specialize in that, and this work depicts the process of men slowly falling in love with each other. The psychological depiction is careful and the development is extremely natural. As of volume 2, it's not erotic, but even more than that, the romance is amazing! I'm excited to read it. This is my first time! (Laughter) I just want it to be made into a movie. There seems to be free time again until volume 3, but it seems like I can wait forever, with the help of the loneliness I don't want it to end. If possible, I would like to keep an eye on the relationship between the two for a long time. I thought from the bottom of my heart that I was really glad I came across this work.

これってきっと同じような事がリアルに有るんだろうなぁ…って言う青春真っ只中の高校生の話し。味方は絶対に居るけど、偏見を持つ方も要る居る訳で。1巻から2巻まで3年かかったと書かれてたから3巻は間もなくなのかな。展開が楽しみです！

This is a story about a high school student in the middle of his youth who says, “I'm sure something similar actually exists...” We definitely have allies, but we also need people who are biased. It was written that it took 3 years from volume 1 to volume 2, so I wonder if volume 3 will soon be released. I'm looking forward to the development!
