心の動きが素晴らしい

The movement of the heart is wonderful

何回も読んでいる作品です。登場人物の心の動きの表現が素晴らしく、共感せずにいられなかった。BLであるなしに関わらず素晴らしい作品でした。

It's a work I've read many times. The expressions of the characters' heart movements were wonderful, and I couldn't help but sympathize with them. It was a great work regardless of whether it was BL or not.

表紙の

On the cover

表紙の絵柄に惹かれて読んでみました。少しだけ読んだだけで引き込まれて、ストーリー展開が楽しかったです。

I was attracted to the pattern on the cover and read it. I was drawn in just by reading it a little bit, and I enjoyed the story development.

泣いたぁ…離れて初めて気づくもの

I cried... something I only notice after leaving

This review contains spoilers. 1巻を読んで。ハピエン厨なので、別れからの…という初めての展開にビビって読むのを躊躇っていたのですが…めちゃくちゃ良かったです😭離れてみて初めて、相手の大切さや自分の気持ちに気づく…その心情が攻め視点、受け視点で半分ずつ描かれ、最後には2人の気持ちがピタッと一致するという展開にグッときました。彼らと一緒に泣いてしまいました。相手の、自分とは違うところに人は惹かれがちですが、その違いを好きになったはずなのに、そこが嫌いになったり、喧嘩の元になったり…身に覚えがありすぎて、受け攻めどちらにも感情移入しちゃいました。好きなはずのに離れたくなる、そんな自分自身も嫌になる。わかる…！！意地を張らずに求めあえたからこそのハピエンで、それがなかなか出来ないことだから、気持ち溢れるコマはすごく印象に残りました。珍しい設定、多くの気づきがある、良作です。2巻目も読了。1巻で互いの大切さを再認識した2人の絆はしっかりと結ばれていて、2人の暮らしにも安定感があるのがわかります。苦しい時こそ2人で分かち合っていくって、会話がしっかり出来てる間柄でないと出来ないことで。でもきっと、尽が些細な変化にも気づいてくれるからこそ成り立つ関係でもあって。それだけ桐生のことを見てるからなんだな〜と、愛だなと心が温まります。色々な壁を2人で乗り越えて、更に互いが必要だと再認識する展開でした。

This review contains spoilers. Read volume 1. Since it's Happien Kitchen, I was hesitant to read it as Bibi for the first development, “After the Breakup...” but it was insanely good 😭 It wasn't until I left that I realized the importance of my opponent and my own feelings... That feeling was drawn in half from an attacking point of view and perspective, and at the end, I was taken aback by the development where the feelings of the two matched perfectly. I ended up crying with them. People tend to be attracted to their partner's differences from themselves, but even though they should have come to like that difference, they didn't like that, it became the source of a fight... I was so familiar with them that I was attacked and empathized with both of them. I don't like myself when I want to leave even though I'm supposed to like it. I understand...!! It was Happien because I was able to ask for it without being mean, and since it's not easy to do that, the frame full of emotion left a great impression on me. It's a good work with an unusual setting and a lot of awareness. I also read volume 2. The bond between the two, who reaffirmed the importance of each other in volume 1, is firmly tied, and you can see that there is a sense of stability in their lives. The two of you share difficult times, and you can't do it unless you have a good conversation. But I'm sure it's also a relationship that only works because everything notices even minor changes. That's why I've been watching Kiryu so much, and it warms my heart. It was a development where the two overcame various barriers and further reaffirmed that they needed each other.

ごめん涙出た

Sorry, I burst into tears

This review contains spoilers. 1巻をかなり前に買って１回読んで、しっくりこなかったのでそれっきり寝かせていましたが海王社クーポンが出たので２巻購入したついでに読み直してじわじわ染みるお話だということに気づいてしまいました。初見の感想は、なんだコレ、グダグダして結局より戻しただけやん、という身も蓋もない感想で、読み返しはしないなぁと思っていました。たぶん精神状態が良くなかったんだな。穏やかな気持ちの時(今)、読み返すと、まぁ染みること染みること。何気ない一言、別れたあとの後悔や表情、モノローグのひとつひとつが自分の過去の思い出やら何やらとシンクロして号泣ですよ。２次元の繊細な絵が立体になって脳内で映画化される感じですな。そして、２巻がまた良かった。家族との関係がメイン。もういい年だからどっちの立場にも共感できるのよ。そんでまた号泣する、と。１回読んでしっくりこなかった人も日を置いてもう一度読んでみてください。きっとじわじわくるから。あ～、買ってよかったなぁってしみじみ思うよ。惜しむらくは修正が２巻ガッツリ白抜きになっちゃったこと。１巻の修正具合で良かったのに〜、ざんねん。

This review contains spoilers. I bought volume 1 quite a while ago and read it once, and since it didn't fit, I let it sit down completely, but since the Kaiosha coupon came out, I reread it while I bought 2 volumes and realized that it was a story that slowly seeped in. My first impression was that I wasn't going to reread it because it was a mess and just brought it back in the end. Maybe she wasn't in a good state of mind. When I feel calm (now), when I reread it, what seeps in, seeps in. Every casual word, regret and expression after breaking up, and monologue synced with my past memories or something and made me cry. It feels like a delicate two-dimensional picture becomes three-dimensional and is being made into a movie in the brain. And volume 2 was good again. Relationships with family are the main ones. It's already a good year, so I can sympathize with either position. That's why I cried again. If you read it once and didn't feel right, try reading it again later. I'm sure it will slowly creep in. Ah, I'm really glad I bought it. Regrettably, volume 2 of the corrections were completely blank. I'm glad volume 1 was fixed, but that's crazy.

うん、あり

Yes, there is

わかる、そーだよね…と、ココロのなかで頷きながら読み進んだ作品。日常の細やかな喜びを共有したいとか、ふとしたときの嫉妬とか、描き方に共感できました。

It's a work I read on while nodding in my heart, saying, I understand, that's right... I was able to sympathize with the way I drew, such as sharing the detailed joys of everyday life and occasional jealousy.

普段読まないジャンル

Genres I don't usually read

This review contains spoilers. 普段は読まないジャンルなんですけど、純粋なラブストーリーに惹かれて買いましたお互いに補完し合うような関係で見ていて楽しかったです何年経っても同じ顔で笑うのが可愛らしい世話焼きな男性がシンプルに好みだから特に惹かれたもう完結済みとのことですが、まだまだ2人の日常が見たいなぁと思いました

This review contains spoilers. It's a genre I don't usually read, but I was drawn to a pure love story and bought it. It was fun to watch in a relationship where they complement each other. I was particularly attracted to cute, carefree men who laugh with the same face no matter how many years have passed, so I was particularly attracted to it, and it was already complete, but I still wanted to see the daily lives of the two

ずーっと眺めていたい

I want to watch the whole time

大きく心を揺さぶられたり、号泣したり、キュンキュンしたり、胸を締め付けられたりと、するわけではない。ただただ、あたたかく、優しい。相手への思い遣りだったり、ふたり一緒にいる幸せが、見ているこちらまで心地よくしてくれるお話。

It's not like my heart is greatly shaken, crying, throbbing, or tightening my chest. It's just, warm, and kind. It's a story about caring for the other person and the happiness of the two being together, making me feel comfortable even when I watch it.

ボロ泣き

Bolo crying

This review contains spoilers. 一巻は別れからの辛い話でボロ泣きして、二巻は幸せな2人が見れるかなぁと思ってたのにボロ泣きです笑でも幸せです。ずっと一緒に暮らすって異性でも同性でも奇跡みたいなものだよな、と。でもこの2人みたいに喧嘩してもお互いを大事に出来たらいいなぁ。三巻は是非ただただイチャイチャした作品にしてください。笑

This review contains spoilers. Volume 1 made me cry because of a painful story since they broke up, and volume 2 made me cry a lot even though I was wondering if I could watch 2 happy people lol but I'm happy. Living together all the time is like a miracle for both the opposite sex and the same sex. But even if they fight like these two, it would be nice if they could take care of each other. Please make volume 3 a simply flirtatious work. lol

日常の小さな幸せを気づかせてくれる作品

A work that makes me notice the small happiness of everyday life

This review contains spoilers. 一巻も二巻も心に響くものがある作品でした。別れてからの2人の心情が辛い部分もありましたが、言葉にするのって長くいればいるほど、大人になると難しくなるので、気持ちを伝えて乗り越えた2人の姿に涙しました。日常の小さな嬉しかったこととか楽しかったこと別れてから気づくこともあったりとかを描かれていて、めっちゃ泣いた、、二巻ではあの時を乗り越えてより表情が温かくてお互いが一緒にいれるためにと変わった姿が素敵でした。家族思いの2人がどうしたら家族に伝えれるか一緒に考えたりしてる姿や最後のシーンでは安心して涙しました。読んでよかった、、

This review contains spoilers. Both volumes one and two were works that touched my heart. There was also a part where the feelings of the two were painful after they broke up, but the longer they put it into words, the more difficult it became when they became adults, so I was moved to tears at the sight of the two people who conveyed their feelings and overcome it. It depicts small happy things in everyday life and things I notice after breaking up, and I cried so much... in volume 2, it was wonderful to see how they overcame that time and their expressions were warmer and changed so that they could be together with each other. I was relieved to cry in the final scene as they saw the two family members thinking together about how to pass it on to their families. I'm glad I read it...

泣ける

I can cry

This review contains spoilers. ４年付き合った２人が別れるところから始まる物語です。はじめは桐生に愛想をつかした尽の気持ちは痛いほどよく分かり、別れを告げられているのに飄々とした桐生の態度にイライラしました。話が進むにつれ、２人の気持ちはやっぱりお互いを求めていることを実感し、再び関係をやり直すのには桐生からしかやかったと思います。きっとすごく勇気がいったと思います。その誠実な態度があったからこそ、尽も一歩踏み出すことが出来たのだと思います。２巻は、家族の問題などを乗り越えてさらに２人の仲が深まって、読み終わった後は2人のことが大好きになりました。この先の２人も見てみたいと思いました。

This review contains spoilers. It's a story that begins when two people who have been in a relationship for 4 years break up. At first, I understood Kiryu's affectionate feelings painfully well, and I was frustrated by Kiryu's attitude of being reluctant even though they said goodbye. As the story progressed, I realized that the feelings of the two were still looking for each other, and I think Kiryu was the only way to start over again. I'm sure it took a lot of courage. I think it was precisely because of that sincere attitude that we were able to take a step forward. Volume 2 overcame family issues, etc., and the relationship between the two deepened further, and after I finished reading it, I fell in love with them. I also wanted to take a look at the next two people.

読んでて愛おしくなる。

It makes me love reading it.

This review contains spoilers. いやあ、素敵な恋物語でした。愛し合うって、ひと筋縄では行かないですよね。甘えたくなることもあるしね、お互いに。許してもらえると思いたい。特に本作カップルの受・桐生（とうい）は作家で、創作に集中してしまうと周りが見えなくなる（アーティストあるある？）。対して攻の尽（つくし）はその名の通りの世話焼き。生活の中で少しずつ降り積もって行った不満が爆発して別れた、というところから始まる物語。2人とも本当の気持ちは確かなのに、それをなかなか伝えられないもどかしさも、読んでいて愛おしかったです。第2巻では社会的にも一歩踏み出そうとする2人。素晴らしいな。どうかどうか、ずっとお幸せにね。

This review contains spoilers. Well, it was a wonderful love story. Loving each other isn't easy, is it? There are times when we want to spoil each other. I want to think I'll be forgiven. In particular, the couple in this work, Uke Kiryu (Toi), is an artist, and if you concentrate on your creations, you won't be able to see your surroundings (are there any artists?). On the other hand, a complete attack (tsukushi) is a form of care and burial, as the name suggests. The story begins where the dissatisfaction that gradually piled up in their lives exploded and they broke up. Even though both of them are sure of their true feelings, it was lovely to read the frustration of not being able to easily convey them. In volume 2, they are two people trying to take a step forward socially. that's great. I hope you stay happy all the time.

普通の生活の中にある温かさを感じます

I feel the warmth of normal life

2巻目を読み終わって『こんな相手がいたらいいなぁ』と思える作品でした。1巻目では普通のハッピーエンドな感じで、面白かったなって感じですが、2巻目の流れは個人的にすごく良かったです。普通の生活の中にある、普通の幸せを2人を通してもっと色々と見てみたいと思わせる作品です?

After reading volume 2, it was a work that made me think, “I wish I had someone like this.” Volume 1 had a normal happy ending, and I feel like it was interesting, but the flow of volume 2 was really good for me personally. It's a work that makes you want to see the normal happiness in a normal life in more ways through the two of them?

わかるかも!?

maybe you understand!?

別れたところから始まるお話で、珍しいなぁと思いながら読み進めました。「分かる」「そうだよね」「そんなこと分かってるけど出来ないんだよ」と思ってしまう言葉がいっぱい…ふたりがそれぞれ、相手のこと・自身のことに思い巡らせながら日々過ごす様子が、もどかしいと同時にキュンキュンしてしまいました。

It's a story that begins where we broke up, and I read on thinking it was unusual. There are so many words that make me think “I understand,” “that's right,” and “I know that, but I can't do it”... The way they each spend their days thinking about their partner and themselves made me cringe at the same time.

大人なラブストーリー！

An adult love story!

This review contains spoilers. 別れるところから始まるって切ないし辛いかなって思ってたけど、一旦離れたから分かること見えてくる事が前向きに描かれていて、好みな作画タッチがあいまって思ってたより読みやすかったし、世界観に入り込んであっという間に読み切ってしまった！キスシーンの描写もリアルで色気たっぷりに描かれていて、ドキドキ！

This review contains spoilers. I was wondering if it would be sad and painful to start from where we break up, but it was depicted in a positive way that once we left, what we understood and came to see, and it was easier to read than I thought because of the combination of my favorite drawing touches, and I got into the worldview, so I read it through in no time! The depiction of the kiss scene is also realistic and has plenty of sex appeal, and it's exciting!

This review contains spoilers. 一巻で、ちょっぴり悲しくて、切なくて。大好きなのにこのままじゃダメって思うことってあるけど、この物語の素晴らしいところは、それでも諦めないで、いっしょにいたいと思うところ。2人でいるなら、お互いを思いやらないと、ずっといっしょにいたいなら！って、人生のあり方が心に刺さる！ステキな作品でした。2人とも、相手を思う時の破顔が、やばい！最高すぎ。尽の家族がステキすぎるし、とおいのお母さんも、前に進もうと踏み出して、最高すぎる作品です！

This review contains spoilers. It's volume one, and I'm a little sad and sad. Even though I love it, there are times when I feel like I can't leave it like this, but the great thing about this story is that I don't give up and want to stay together. If you're two, if you don't care for each other, if you want to stay together the whole time! The way life is going sticks to my heart! It was a wonderful work. Both of them look awful when they think about their partner! It's too awesome. Jin's family is so wonderful, and Toi's mom also stepped forward, and it's such a great work!

This review contains spoilers. 同姓でも異性でも共同生活をすると価値観のすり合わせだったり、嫌いな部分だったり許せないことだったり、それが爆発したり、あるよねー。離れてわかることもあるしめっちゃ、わかるわかるって思いながら読みましたこの感じのBLはあんまりなくて現実感があって良かったです！

価値観のすり合わせって大変さー

it's hard to match values

男女でも同棲となったら、生活の中の価値観のスレ違いでギクシャクしたりするもの。美容師の尽と小説家の桐生とのそんな生活感からのすれ違いがとても良く表現されていて、単なる好きになったら同棲！と、言う単純な話でなく、奥行きがある作品だと感じました。

When it comes to cohabiting, even men and women get nervous because of the differences in values in their lives. The difference between hairdresser Jin and novelist Kiryu from such a sense of life is very well expressed, and if they simply fall in love, they live together! It wasn't a simple story, and I felt that it was a work with depth.

めっっっちゃくちゃ良い

that's so damn good

This review contains spoilers. 破局から始まりよりを戻していく過程を描いている1巻目。よりを戻す過程がゆっくり細かく描かれていて、リアルだとこんなだろうなと感情移入できまくり！尽(つくし/攻め)からフったけど未練たらたらで、無理矢理断ち切ろうと本当に終わりと宣言して去る場面苦し〜っ泣桐生(とうい/受け)は自分が至らないところが多くてフラれたと自覚ありつつ、不器用すぎて復縁したくてもぶっきらぼうな連絡ややり方しかできず余計にすれ違ってしまうんだけど…。ついに既読すらつかなくなった時に会いに行き、今までヘラヘラしてたのにこれで最後にするからデートしてと懇願。ここで桐生を見直して、デート後のえち(まだ復縁してない)で桐生に完全に心打たれた。ちゃんと自分の気持ち言えたね！えらい！泣無事復縁。1巻での満足度がえぐいです。そして2巻恋人編では意外と男らしい尽！最高！桐生もちゃんと変わってて。お互いが二度と同じ過ちを繰り返さないよう生活してて感動。桐生の過去も2人で乗り越えて、2巻の終わり方最高すぎました。興奮したまま書いてるから文章すごいことになってそうだけど、とりあえず買って損は絶対ないです！！！

This review contains spoilers. This is the first volume, which depicts the process of starting from a catastrophe and getting back together. The process of getting back together was drawn slowly and in detail, and I was able to empathize with it that it would be like this in real life! It's a scene where she says it's really over in order to break it off by force, and the scene where she actually declares that it's over and leaves is distraught ~ Kiryu (toi/receive) is aware that she was dumped because there were so many places she couldn't reach, but she was so clumsy that even if she wanted to get back together, they were only able to make blurry contacts and methods, and they passed each other unnecessarily... I finally went to see him when it wasn't even read, and even though he had been flustering until now, he begged them to go on a date since this is the last time. I reviewed Kiryu here, and I was completely struck by Kiryu after the date (they haven't gotten back together yet). I was able to properly express my feelings! great! I cried and got back together safely. The level of satisfaction with volume 1 is incredible. And in volume 2, the lover edition is surprisingly manly! the best! Kiryu has changed a lot too. I'm moved by the fact that we both live our lives so that we never repeat the same mistakes again. The two of them overcame Kiryu's past, and the way volume 2 ended was too great. I'm writing with excitement, so it seems like the sentences are going to be amazing, but there's absolutely no loss in buying it anyway!!!
