世界観が……✨️

The view of the world... ✨️

This review contains spoilers. 吸血鬼……ではなく『吸血人類』という土台がとても不思議な感じなのに、分かると切なくて、苦しくて、素敵で…幸せを願いながら読む作品でした✨️パベルとアウラは牙の能力でとても切なくて、泣きそうになります……もっと続きをみたい……先生と先生の想い人が再会できて欲しい……ユキとジーンの寿命は調整されるのだろうか……などと想像したくなるストーリーでした✨️吸血鬼のお話はいくつか読みましたが、1番好きです😭🙏素敵なお話ありがとうございます✨️

This review contains spoilers. It was a story that made me imagine that the foundation of “vampire humans” is very strange, but when you understand it, it's sad, painful, and wonderful... and I read it while wishing for happiness ✨️ Pavel and Aura are so sad and almost crying due to their fangs' abilities... I want to see more... I want the teacher and the teacher's lover to reunite... I wonder if Yuki and Gene's life span will be adjusted... ✨️ I've read a few vampire stories I like it the most 😭🙏 thank you so much for the wonderful story ✨️

1巻はサスペンス2巻はラブロマンスとして

Volume 1 is suspense volume 2 is love romance

This review contains spoilers. 上巻226ページ。下巻265ページ。ボリュームたっぷりで読み応えあります！上巻はサスペンスやホラー、ミステリのような雰囲気で進むのが好みでした。ジーンは吸血鬼だとしてもアウラを襲ったのは誰なのか20年前のミイラ死体事件はどう関わるのかとか、合間に描かれるアウラとパドマは酷いことにならなければいいなとか。少しずつ明かされていく謎、そして6話ラストでひゃーっ！となった驚きの展開！文化論履修生ということは、、、ここで86ページまで戻りましたよ！読み始めた時はアウラとパドマは主人公の友人役、ほぼモブに近いキャラだと思ってたのに・・・もう主役CPより彼らへの思い入れが強いまま下巻へ。下巻。アウラとパドマのCP大好きだー！でもユキとジーンがあくまで主役で、そこから彼らを眺めてるのがまた愛おしいんだろうなとも思いました。吸血人類を怖がるのではなく彼らの生態に同情して怒るユキが優しく、彼が愛を理解するシーンは印象に残ります。ユキもアウラも先生も星の鱗粉を出すシーンがとても綺麗でした。星の鱗粉の設定が素晴らしく他の吸血鬼ものにないオリジナリティが作品に加わってます。サスペンスやSF風味を取り入れた鯛野ニッケ先生の作品をまた読みたいです。宿舎の黒猫が増えたのホラー展開かと思って読んでたらそんなことなかったの自分だけ？

This review contains spoilers. Volume 1, page 226. Volume 2, page 265. It has plenty of volume and is worth reading! I liked that the first volume progressed in an atmosphere of suspense, horror, and mystery. Even if Gene is a vampire, who attacked Aura, how is the mummy corpse incident 20 years ago involved, and I wonder if Aura and Padma, depicted in between, don't become terrible. The mystery is being revealed little by little, and at the end of episode 6, huh! It was a surprising development! Being a cultural theory student... I've gone back to page 86 here! When I started reading it, I thought Aura and Padma were friends of the main characters, characters that were almost close to mobs... but now I have a stronger fondness for them than the main character CP, so I'm moving on to the second volume. Volume 2. I love Aura and Padma's CP! But Yuki and Jean are just leading roles, and I also thought watching them from there would be adorable again. The scene where Yuki, who is not afraid of blood-sucking humans but sympathizes with their ecology and gets angry, is kind, and the scene where he understands love left an impression on me. The scene where Yuki, Aura, and Sensei show off their star scales was so beautiful. The setting of Star Scale is wonderful, and originality not found in other vampires has been added to the work. I want to read Taino Nikke's work again, which incorporates suspense and sci-fi flavors. I thought the number of black cats in dormitories was a horror development, and when I read it, wasn't that the only one?

切なくて苦しくて愛がたっぷり

so sad, so painful, so much love

This review contains spoilers. 続編を求めています。切なくて苦しい、愛してるから近付けない。愛してるから。そんなことあっていいわけねぇだろおおおおおお！！！！！！と。最後まで、切なかった。ハピエンなんだろうけど。“”愛してる“”に込められた“”ごめん“”が本当に切ない。愛してしまってごめんなさい。何度読んでもうるうるしてしまう。

This review contains spoilers. I'm looking for a sequel. It's sad and painful, and I can't get close because I love you. Because I love you. there's no way it's okay to have that kind of thing!!!!! and. I was sad until the end. I guess it's Happien though. The “sorry” contained in “I love you” is really sad. I'm sorry I loved you. No matter how many times I read it, I was dumbfounded.

サブカップルがいい

Sub couples are good

This review contains spoilers. メインカプを凌駕する勢いのサブカプ(パベルとアウラ)に、下巻後半までどっぷり心を奪われていた。最後はメインの二人で締め括られて後に大きな改革を成す。二つのカップルが半々ぐらいでキャストに立つ珍しい構成。吸血人類の苦悩が痛いほど伝わってシクシク痛む心臓が心地よかった。

This review contains spoilers. My heart was completely taken over by the sub cap (Pavel and Aura), whose momentum surpassed the main cap until the second half of the second volume. At the end, it was concluded by the two main players, and major reforms were later carried out. An unusual configuration where two couples stand in the cast for about half. The suffering of blood-sucking humans was painfully conveyed, and my throbbing heart felt comfortable.

無駄のない上下巻

Streamlined upper and lower volumes

This review contains spoilers. ネタバレなしで読んでほしいですが感想が難しいのでネタバレです。ユキとジーン、パベルとアウラの動きが謎を深めて恋愛とミステリー両方の楽しみ方ができます。上下巻で丁寧に心情を描いてくれるので感情移入が半端ないです。ハピエン主義なのでとても良い終わり方でしたが、先生もぜひ幸せになってほしい‥。番外編もあります。

This review contains spoilers. I want you to read it without spoilers, but my impressions are difficult, so these are spoilers. The movements of Yuki, Gene, and Pavel and Aura deepen the mystery, and you can enjoy both romance and mystery. They carefully depict feelings in the upper and lower volumes, so I have no half the feeling of empathy. It was a happy ending, so it was a very good way to end, but I definitely want the teacher to be happy too... There is also an extra edition.

涙腺崩壊！

Lacrimal gland collapse!

This review contains spoilers. にっけ先生の作品の中で1番好きです。何度読み返したことか。ジーン×ユキ、パベル×アウラと2CP出てきますがどちらも攻めが吸血人類という設定なのですが、ヒトが強い好意を抱いた相手に分泌する「星の鱗粉」という成分の存在がこの世界観ではとても重要になっています。ジーンは催イン型の牙を持つ吸血人類。吸血人類だと明らかになる過程やその作用による苦悩、ユキが恋に落ちるまでの心情の変化などが丁寧に描かれていて、それぞれの事情が絶妙に絡み合っているのです。ユキからジーンへの想いがついに星の鱗粉となって現れるシーンは美しいです。パベルとアウラも大好きなCPです。吸血人類はみんな儚いですが、特にパベルの牙は忘却型なので吸血した相手が全てを忘れてしまうという更なる儚さ。どれだけ想い合っても吸血するたびにアウラの記憶が失われてしまう虚しさ。それでも何度でも2人は恋に落ちアウラからパベルへ溢れ出る星の鱗粉。紆余曲折の後に2CPはハピエンとなります。吸血人類の抱えるものはとても重いですが、お互いを想う気持ちがどこまでも澄んでいてとても素敵でした。彼らは支え合ってずっと一緒に生きていくんだろうなと思わせる深い余韻があります。

This review contains spoilers. Among Nikke sensei's works, I like it the most. How many times have you reread it? Gene x Yuki, Pavel x Aura, and 2CP come out, and both are set to attack blood-sucking humans, and the presence of a component called “star scale powder” secreted by humans against opponents they have a strong crush on has become very important in this worldview. Gene is a blood-sucking human with spine-shaped fangs. The process by which it becomes clear that they are bloodsuckers, the anguish caused by its effects, and the changes in Yuki's feelings until she falls in love are carefully depicted, and each situation is exquisitely intertwined. The scene where Yuki's feelings for Gene finally appear as star scales is beautiful. Pavel and Aula are also favorite CPs. All human bloodsuckers are ephemeral, but in particular, Pavel's fangs are oblivion, so it's even more ephemeral where the person who sucks blood forgets everything. It's an emptiness where no matter how much you feel for each other, Aura's memory is lost every time she sucks blood. Nevertheless, over and over again, the two fall in love, and the star scales overflow from Aura to Pavel. After twists and turns, 2CP becomes Happien. The things that vampire humans carry are very heavy, but their feelings for each other were so clear and so wonderful. There is a deep afterglow that makes me think that they will support each other and live together forever.

天才の現れたばい…

Just when a genius showed up...

This review contains spoilers. 鯛野先生に今更天才とか言うのおこがましいんだけど、まっっっっじでこの設定思いついたのはノーベル賞モノだと思うんよね！！！天っ才！！！ミステリーとして読んでも、前半できっちりミスリードしときながら後半あまりにも鮮やかな伏線回収でさながら背負い投げ一本、私は天を見上げて「アッパレ…」と呟くしかないのであった。ストーリーのどこにも無理やり感が無く、ジーンがユキに惹かれた理由一つ取ってみても、読者が「でしょうね！」としかならん納得感。そしてなんと言ってもパベル/アウラの話がそりゃあもう泣けて泣けて…思い出してまた泣ける。たった一つケチをつけるなら、タイトルがちょっと長い笑全人類読むといいよ。

This review contains spoilers. It's presumptuous to say Taino sensei is a genius now, but I think the one that came up with this setting was a Nobel Prize!! genius!!! Even if I read it as a mystery, I had no choice but to look up at the sky and mutter, “Upper...” while completely misleading in the first half, collecting foreshadowing that was too vivid in the second half, and I had no choice but to throw one on my back. There's no sense of being forced anywhere in the story, and even if you take one reason why Gene was attracted to Yuki, readers said, “Probably!” It's nothing but a sense of satisfaction. And after all, the Pavel/Aura story is, well, I can already cry and cry... I remember it and cry again. If I'm just being stingy, I should read the slightly long title lol All Humanity.

This review contains spoilers. ほんと面白い！愛してるのに吸血行為が止められない星の鱗粉を解明していくユキとジーンの2人が素敵なパートナーだしずっとツンツンデレなユキがずっとかわいい。パベルとアウラの2人もずっとラブラブでいてほしい！！！

This review contains spoilers. It's really interesting! The two people, Yuki and Gene, who are trying to unravel star scales that they love but can't stop their blood-sucking behavior, are wonderful partners, and Yuki, who has always been tsunken, is much cuter. I want Pavel and Aura to stay in love forever!!!

深くて切ない

Deep and sad

This review contains spoilers. 久しぶりに再読。大好きな作品なのにまだレビューを書いていなかったなんて！YouTubeのユキにゃんも見ていたのにっっっ。YouTubeのユキにゃんdrawing　videoも作画技術が素晴らしく可愛くておすすめです。ヨーロッパ辺りの世界中から良家の子息が集まる名門寄宿学校での吸血鬼騒動から始まるお話。途中までは生徒の血を吸った犯人は誰かといったミステリ調のストーリー展開です。上巻の最終話でガラリと転換。よくある吸血鬼ものとは違い不老不死の人外ではなく、短命で自由に恋することも出来ない辛く悲しい体質の吸血人類。ジーンとユキだけでなく、パベルとアウラもウェクスラー先生もどの恋もみんな切ない。息を潜めて生きてきた同胞達に逆らって吸血人類の研究をしてユキと一緒に生きていく未来を手に入れようと立ち上がるジーンがカッコいい。ジーン達の研究が実を結びいつか吸血人類達が安心して愛する人と共に生きていけるような時代になって欲しい。みんな幸せになって欲しい。学園で待ち続けているウェクスラー先生の元にもかつての恋人が帰ってきてくれる未来があればいいな。切ないけど最後は明るい未来を期待できる温かい結末でした。

This review contains spoilers. I haven't read it again in a long time. It's my favorite work, but I haven't written a review yet! I was watching Yuki Nyan on YouTube too, huh. I also recommend the Yuki Nyan drawing video on YouTube because the drawing techniques are wonderful and cute. The story begins with a vampire riot at a prestigious boarding school where children from good families gather from all over Europe. It's a mystery storyline about who is the culprit who sucked the student's blood until halfway through. It completely changed with the final episode of the first volume. Unlike common vampires, they are none other than immortal vampires, and they are short-lived vampires with a painful and sad constitution where they cannot fall in love freely. Not only Gene and Yuki, but Pavel, Aura, and Wexler sensei are all sad in love. Gene, who defies her compatriots who have lived by hiding her breath, and stands up to obtain a future where they will live with Yuki by doing research on blood-sucking humans, is cool. I hope that the research of Gene and the others will come to fruition, and someday it will become an age where bloodsuckers can live with their loved ones with peace of mind. I want everyone to be happy. It would be nice if Mr. Wechsler, who has been waiting for him at the school, also has a future where his former lover comes back. It was a sad but warm ending where we could look forward to a bright future at the end.

何回読んでも泣けちゃう

It makes me cry no matter how many times I read it

ファンタジー系苦手なんですけど、ニッケ先生だから思いきって購入。結果、下巻はボロ泣きでした。忘れた頃に読んでもまんまと泣かされてしまう。気になったかたは是非ぜひ。

I'm not good at fantasy, but since I'm Nikke sensei, I went out of my way to buy it. As a result, I cried a lot in the second volume. It really makes me cry even if I read it when I forget it. If you are interested, be sure to check it out.

ぜひ読むべき一冊

A book you must read

This review contains spoilers. 単なる吸血鬼ものではないお話。ジーンとユキはハピエンだけど、パベルとアウラはどうなんだろうかと疑問…。日にちを空けると吸血衝動がなくなるだけで、その効果が無くなるわけじゃないもんね…。

This review contains spoilers. It's not just a story about vampires. Jean and Yuki are happy, but I wonder what Pavel and Aura are like... If you set aside a few days, the urge to suck blood just doesn't go away, and that doesn't mean that effect goes away...

高尚な吸血鬼の恋物語

A lofty vampire love story

This review contains spoilers. 吸血鬼題材の漫画はよくありますが、大概はバッドエンドや人知れず2人だけの世界を築くようなお話が多く、ヒトとの共存のための新しい未来に向かうという設定は読んだことがなく吸血鬼についての新しい方向性を見た気がします。絵も物語も丁寧で小説を読んでいるような読み応えでした◎

This review contains spoilers. There are many comics about vampires, but for the most part, there are many stories about bad endings or unknown people building a world with only two people, and I feel like I've seen a new direction about vampires without reading the setting of heading towards a new future for coexistence with humans. The pictures and story were careful, and the reading was as good as if I were reading a novel◎

I can't put it into words, but I really want many people to read it. The only thing is that I just think it would be nice if my teacher met that person again somewhere. I can't believe they're happy to be together, but even so, I still want them to be happy together... no, it's sad. It's repetitive, isn't it? ,

長編小説を読んだかのような満足感

A sense of satisfaction as if you had read a long novel

レビューで好評だったのと、ニッケ先生の別作品が好きだったので、購入してみました。ファンタジーものですが、どこか本当の事なのではないかと思わせるほどの緻密な設定と展開で、たった2巻で長編小説を読んだかのような満足感がありました。｢なんでこんなに面白い物語が考えられるんだろう｣とニッケ先生に感心しながら読んでいました。絵がお綺麗なのはもちろんですが、表現方法がとにかく美しいと思いました。主役カプ以外にも登場人物それぞれに物語があり、共感せざるを得ない設定がそこかしらに散りばめられているため、どの登場人物も大好きになってしまいました。何回も繰り返し読み返したくなる作品です。気になった方はぜひ買ってほしいです。

It was popular in reviews, and I liked Nikke sensei's other works, so I bought them. It's fantasy, but the setting and development were so precise that it made me think it was something real, and I felt satisfied as if I had read a long story in just 2 volumes. I was reading it while admiring Nikke sensei, saying, “Why can you think of such an interesting story?” Of course, the pictures are beautiful, but I thought the way they were expressed was just beautiful. Other than the main character, each character has a story, and settings I can't help but sympathize with are scattered all over the place, so I fell in love with every character. It's a work you'll want to reread over and over again. If you are interested, I definitely want you to buy it.

別作品を読んで絵に惹かれて買ってみたけど、久しぶりの大当たり。絵がきれいでめちゃくちゃいいんだけど、ストーリーも最高にいい。淡々と進み、だんだんと心情の変化の描写がきれいすぎて作家さんごと好きになってしまった。そんな素敵な作品でした。

I read another work and was attracted to the picture and bought it, but it wasn't a long time since I hit the jackpot. The pictures are beautiful and insanely nice, but so is the story. It progressed slowly, and gradually the depiction of the change in mood was so beautiful that I fell in love with all the writers. It was such a wonderful work.

大好きな作品

Favorite work

ユキの「愛や恋というのがああいうシルエットだと思い込んでいた〜」という言葉が愛だけではなく色々な物事への受け取り方にも言える事ですが、表現として凄く印象的でユキのジーンからの問いかけへのその後の言葉含め素直で優しい応え方で大好きなシーンのひとつです吸血人類であるが故の特性に苦しむジーン達や逆に愛してしまう事へユキの葛藤に切なくにりますがこんなに素敵な愛の形がある作品に出会わせてくれた鯛野ニッケ先生に感謝しかありません

The words “I thought love and love were like that kind of silhouette” by Yuki can be said not only for love but also for how to receive various things, but it's very impressive as an expression, and it's one of my favorite scenes with an honest and gentle response, including subsequent words to Yuki's question from Gene. Because they are blood-sucking humans, they suffer from characteristics due to their characteristics, and to the fact that they love you in reverse I'm sad Yuki's conflict, but I came across a work with such a wonderful form of love I have nothing but gratitude to Taino Nikke sensei for doing it

実力派作家が描く学園オカルトファンタジー

A school occult fantasy drawn by a talented artist

物語の舞台は、世界中から良家の子息が集う名門寄宿高等学校。城のような校舎、ネクタイにベストにマントという魔法学校の様な制服。始めから世界観に引き込まれる。皆の憧れの美しく何処か影のある王子様の様な代表監督生の先輩が、頭脳明晰クールな主人公に何かと絡んでくるが何処か悲しそうで訳ありな様子。そして物語序盤で事件が起こるり謎解きに乗り出す主人公。色々な要素が絡み展開していき、上下巻一気に読んでしまった。愛しているが故に己の欲望に耐える攻めと清楚な受けが初めて媚薬的に催インされズリズリと身悶えし耐えさせられるシーンは圧巻で悶絶する。愛欲、プライド、恐怖、自己嫌悪、ごちゃ混ぜの感情が息苦しいほど。耐える美学。2巻で結ばれるもじれにじれさせられた2人の絡みは、局部は全く描かれないが震える体、表情、言葉で表現され、見てはいけない物のように甘美。正にツンデレ受けの旨味が凝縮してるキャラクター。乱したくなる（笑）金髪王子様系スパダリ攻め×黒髪清楚ツンデレ美人受けCP。王道で有りながら謎解きや、複雑な設定で味付けされこの作品ならではの学園モノBLになっているのは実力が保証されてる作家ならではだと感服した。

The story is set at a prestigious boarding school where children of good families gather from all over the world. A school building like a castle, and a school of magic uniforms with neckties and a vest. You'll be drawn into the world view right from the start. The senior representative director student, who is the beautiful and somewhat shadowy prince that everyone admires, is involved in something with the bright and cool protagonist, but it seems that he is somehow sad and has no reason. Then, an incident occurs at the beginning of the story, and the protagonist sets out to solve the mystery. Various elements intertwined and developed, and I read the upper and lower volumes all at once. The scene where the attack and neat reception that endures one's own desires because they love them is first aphrodisiactically induced, and they are thrilled and made to endure it is impressive and in agony. The jumble of feelings of love, pride, fear, self-loathing, and suffocating. An aesthetic that endures. The entanglement between the two confused people connected in volume 2 is expressed with trembling bodies, expressions, and words, although no part is depicted at all, and it is sweet like something you shouldn't see. A character whose flavor is condensed from a tsundere experience. It makes me want to mess up (laughs) The Blonde Prince series Spadari Attack x Black Haired Tsundere Beauty CP. I was impressed that it is unique to artists whose ability is guaranteed that it has a royal road yet solves mysteries, and is seasoned with complicated settings and is a school monobl unique to this work.
