本当に圧倒的！

It's really overwhelming!

良すぎて何回読んだことか…！初めは絵が美しいから惹かれましたが圧倒的な筆力だけでなくスケールも圧倒的、エルヴァ様とアルトの愛の深さも圧倒的です。巻が進むにつれ複雑になるし不穏な空気も漂ってまだまだ乗り越えなくちゃならないことがありそうですが、どうか幸せになってほしい…切に願います

How many times have I read it because it's so good...! At first, I was drawn to it because the pictures are beautiful, but not only is the writing power overwhelming, but the scale is also overwhelming, and the depth of love between Elva and Alto is also overwhelming. As the volume progresses, it becomes complicated, and there is an air of unease in the air, and it seems that there are still things we have to overcome, but I hope you will be happy... I really hope

長編なので控えてたけど、、始めました。

It's a long film, so I was preparing for it, but... I started.

長編なので見て見ないふりしていた作品ですが、人気あるようなのでやはり読んでおかないと！と読み始めました。ただのBL作品ではなく、島で起きているミステリーな部分とか、アルト少年がどこから来たのかとか、この二人の着地はどこなのか？など、いろいろ色々です。とっても絵が綺麗で、エルヴァが本当に美しく、美人受け好き体格差好き属性の方は特に好きだと思います。まだ途中です、先が長い、頑張ります。お願いハッピーエンド！

It's a long film, so I pretended not to watch it, but it seems to be popular, so I still have to read it! I started reading it. It's not just a BL film, but where did these two land, like the mystery part happening on the island, where did the alto boy come from? And so on, there are a lot of things. The picture is so beautiful, Elva is really beautiful, and I think I particularly like people with attributes that like being beautiful and like physical disparities. We're still in the middle, we have a long way to go, and I'll do my best. Happy ending please!

まだまだ

There's still more

皆さんのレビューを拝読してから購入を決めましたが、当たり!!です。「次はﾅﾆ?!ﾅﾆ?!」が止まらないです。ストーリーがとても良く、非現実的なストーリーは好まないのですが現実問題も含まれているので面白いです。今は6巻まで拝読しましたが、主人公と親友のやりとりがとても辛かった。また違う形で再開して欲しいと切に願います。黒海がなぜ出現するようになったのか、知りたいことがいろいろあり、まだ終わらないのは分かっていますが、最終的にどうストーリーになるのかがとても楽しみな作品です。

I read everyone's reviews and then decided to buy it, and it was a hit!! That's it. “What's next?! What?!” I can't stop. The story is very good, and I don't like unrealistic stories, but it's interesting because it also includes real problems. I've read up to 6 volumes now, but the conversation between the main character and his best friend was very difficult. I sincerely hope it will resume in a different form. There are many things I want to know about why the Black Sea began to appear, and I know it's not over yet, but I'm really looking forward to seeing how the story will turn out in the end.

泣いた

wept

This review contains spoilers. 一巻読んでどーしても続きが読みたくなって一気買いしました。ストーリーも絵もすごく上手で引き込まれます。ただ引き込まれすぎて覡様たちの過去が辛すぎてエルヴァの生い立ちも、泣きました。どうしても襲われてるシーンは、辛くなりますね。エプスタインの件もあったしこういうことって現実で起こり得るんだって思うとメンタルがやられます。でも小冊子に癒されます。早く幸せな2人が見たい。わんこ攻め大好きなのでたまらないですがただのB　Lではなく色々とさ考えさせられます。

This review contains spoilers. After reading one volume, I wanted to read the rest no matter what, so I bought them all at once. The story and pictures are so good that it draws me in. It was just that I was drawn in so much that Elva's past was so painful that Elva's upbringing also made me cry. No matter what, the scene where they're being attacked is going to be painful. There was also the Epstein case, and thinking that this kind of thing could happen in real life makes me mentally ill. But I'm healed by the booklet. I want to see these two happy people soon. I love attacking dogs, so it's irresistible, but it's not just BL, it makes me think about a lot of things.

イラストもストーリーも秀逸

Excellent illustrations and story

まず圧倒的に絵がうまい。私の読んだ漫画のなかで1番かも。ストーリーもファンタジーとして秀逸で、BLじゃなければもっとベストセラーになると思う。BLだから良くもあるのでジレンマ…

First of all, the pictures are overwhelmingly good. Probably the best comic I've read. The story is also excellent as a fantasy, and I think it would be an even best seller if it wasn't BL. It's good because it's BL, so it's a dilemma...

祝２００万部突破〜！！！

Congratulations on breaking through 2 million copies!!!

「デビュー作なんて信じられない！」「２次創作じゃねーか！」と、好みの分かれる作品。推しをモデルにした作品は沢山あるし、作家のモチベにもなるし別物になっていくし。取り敢えず作者様、物凄く稼いでるから大丈夫です（謎の感想）。１４巻くらいまで（余裕がなければ途中の小冊子は後回しでも良い）読んでしまえば、もう、その論争はどうでも良くなりそう。期待に応える作者様のメンタルすごい。創作で鍛えた腕…、いや、腕凄過ぎる。今までよく商業デビューしないでいられた…。只者じゃない。きっと色んな事をして来た猛者。好きな事って沢山やって良いんだ。一生懸命やって良いんだーーー！！何かもう、漫画自体が最高なのに、夢や希望まで貰えます。これ、終わらないでほしい。一生読みたい。

“I can't believe it was a debut!” “Isn't it a secondary creation!” It is a work with different tastes. There are a lot of works modeled after recommendation, and it also motivates the artist and becomes something different. For the time being, the author earns a tremendous amount of money, so it's fine (mysterious impression). Once you've read up to about 14 volumes (if you don't have time, you can put off the booklet in the middle), it seems like the controversy will get better no matter what. The mentality of the author who lives up to expectations is amazing. The skills I've trained in creative writing... no, my skills are too amazing. It hasn't often been possible to make a commercial debut until now... they're not the only ones. I'm sure he's a fierce person who has done a lot of things. You can do as many things as you like. you can do your best!! Somehow, even though the comics themselves are the best, I can even get dreams and hopes. I don't want this to end. I want to read it my whole life.

まだ着いてく

It's still arriving

なるほど、3巻が分かれ道だ。1、2巻の世界観が好きな人にとってこの展開は急に現実に引き戻されたと感じるだろう。私もその1人だ。しばらく続きを読めなかった。時間を置いて再読。6巻まで読んだ。辛い展開が多く、ちょっと心折れそうになる。巫達の過去と定めが辛すぎる。今までの巫たちやミカの記憶が重苦しくて。だけどその分、アルトがエルヴァを想う気持ち、エルヴァがアルトを信じる気持ちがこの世界を悲しくも美しく照らしてる。互いが唯一無二の存在であることが尊い。お願いだから幸せになって。

I see, volume 3 divides the road. People who like the world view of volumes 1 and 2 will feel that this development has suddenly been drawn back to reality. I am one of them. I couldn't read the rest for a while. Wait a while and reread it. I read up to 6 volumes. There are so many painful developments that it almost breaks my heart. The past and decisions of the sorcerers are too painful. My memories of the shrines and Mika up until now are heavy. But for that reason, the feeling that Alto thinks of Elva, and the feeling that Elva believes in Alto, illuminates this world sadly yet beautifully. It is precious that they are unique to each other. Please be happy.

とにかくうつくしい！

Anyway, it's beautiful!

This review contains spoilers. １巻の感想です。エルヴァの美しさに魅了されました！エルヴァのそばにいて守るアルトとの絆も尊いですね。アルトも精悍な青年に成長していてカッコいいです。アルトにだけなぜ黒痣を消す力があるのか、黒い海から出てくる化け物に触れても平気なのか。そもそも化け物の正体とは何なのか。謎がたくさん気になります。これから解き明かしていくのでしょうか。アルトがエルヴァを100年続いた呪縛から解き放ってくれる気がしてならない。どうかハッピーエンドでありますように。2人が穏やかでしあわせな日常を送れますように。

This review contains spoilers. These are my impressions of volume 1. I was fascinated by the beauty of Elva! The bond with Alto, who is by Elva's side and protects, is also precious. Alto has also grown into a fearless young man, which is cool. Why does only Alto have the power to erase black moles, and is it OK to touch monsters that come out of the Black Sea? What is the monster's true identity in the first place? I'm worried about a lot of mysteries. Are we going to unravel it now? I can't help but feel like Alto will free Elva from the spell that has continued for 100 years. I hope you have a happy ending. May the two of them live a peaceful and happy everyday life.

キャラが愛おしい

The characters are adorable

異世界ものは普段嗜まないのですが、この作品は絵が綺麗だったので気になり手に取ってみました。その結果、ハマりにハマって最新巻と間の小冊子まで一気見です。一途な愛が大好きなわたしにブッ刺さりました。アルトの年下ワンコ感がたまらない。生涯幸せになって欲しいキャラ。ストーリーも楽しめたので、これからの展開も楽しみです。すごくおすすめの作品です。

I don't usually like anything from another world, but the picture of this work was beautiful, so I was curious and picked it up. As a result, I'm addicted to it and read all the booklets between the latest volumes. It stuck with me, who loves unwavering love. Alto's feeling of being a younger dog is irresistible. A character I want you to be happy for the rest of your life. I also enjoyed the story, so I'm looking forward to future developments. I highly recommend this work.

ストーリーに引き込まれます

You'll be drawn into the story

This review contains spoilers. 絵がとても綺麗で物語のテンポも良く引き込まれます素直な性格のアルト、クールな性格のエルヴァ様、お互いを大切に想う2人が大好きです6巻はエルヴァ様が格好良すぎました…！歴代かんなぎ様の過去や、エルヴァ様の過去、ミカの話等、切なくなってしまいますが今後の展開が楽しみです

This review contains spoilers. The pictures are so beautiful and the tempo of the story draws me in. I love Alt, who has an honest personality, and Elva, who has a cool personality, and the two people who care about each other. Elva was too cool in volume 6...! The past of the successive Kannagi-sama, the past of Elva, the story of Mika, etc. makes me sad, but I'm looking forward to future developments

long story

長編でスト重の作品でした。個人的にはシリアス物はあまり読まないのですが、読み進めていくと胸が締め付けられるくらい切ないです。まだ続いていますが、どうかハッピーエンドになりますように。続きが楽しみです。

It was a long and intense work. Personally, I don't read serious stuff very often, but as I read on, it's so sad that my heart tightens. It's still going on, but I hope it has a happy ending. I'm looking forward to the continuation.

読まなきゃ損！！壮大なファンタジー！

If you don't read it, it's a loss!! An epic fantasy!

作品はBL枠ですが、評価の星が足りないくらいのファンタジー作品。絵も綺麗ですがストーリーも言うことなしに凄い面白いです！！！！BLって感じもそれほどなく沢山の人に知って欲しいお薦め作品です。ファンタジー好きなら是非読んで欲しい！！というか読まないのは損！！！！しっかりした設定で話が進む度どんどん面白くなります！！そして2人のキャラクターが何より魅力的です！！試しに１巻読んでみてください。ググッと心を捕まれてハマります！！！！ちなみにストーリーだけでいい方は本編に関係ないので単行本だけで大丈夫ですが、二人の日常をもっと楽しみたいという方は小冊子も(小さな頃のアルトもたまに見れたりします)購入することをお薦めします。可愛い二人の日常が見れてほっこりします！

The work is in the BL frame, but it's a fantasy work that doesn't have enough stars to evaluate. The pictures are beautiful, but the story is really interesting without saying anything!!! It doesn't have that much of a BL feel, and I want many people to know about it. If you like fantasy, I definitely want you to read it!! Or rather, it's a loss not to read it!!! The settings are solid and the story gets more and more interesting as it progresses!! And above all else, the two characters are fascinating!! Please try reading volume 1. It really caught my heart and I'm addicted to it!!! By the way, if you only want the story, it has nothing to do with the main story, so you can just use the book, but if you want to enjoy the daily lives of the two even more, I recommend that you also buy a booklet (you can read alto from when they were little once in a while). I'm so relieved to be able to see the daily lives of these two cute people!

人気の理由がわかる

Do you know why it's popular

人気な作品なので作品の存在自体は知っていたのですがまだ読んでいませんでした。普段BLをあまり読まない友人からもおすすめされさすがに読まなければ！と思い購入。やっぱり人気作は読むと人気な理由が分かりますね。ストーリーが丁寧でおもしろいし登場人物も美しくて次巻が待ち遠しすぎます。

It's a popular work, so I knew the work itself existed, but I hadn't read it yet. Recommended by friends who don't usually read BL, I really must read it! I thought I bought it. After all, if you read popular works, you can understand why they are popular. The story is careful and interesting, and the characters are so beautiful that I can't wait for the next volume.

人物の描き分け力に感服

I admire the ability to draw people apart

この作者様は何と言っても人物の描き分け力が凄い。老若男女：じいさんばあさん、壮年男女、青年男女、少年少女、幼児、産まれたての赤ちゃんまですべての年代において、頭身のバランスまで完璧。そして身分と国籍：明らかにそこら辺の島民とは違う顔立ちの領主シヨン、わかりやすいそばかすのレティ、目元がアジアなコノエとジュノ。髪色と髪型の違いだけで判別させる作家さんも多い中、この作者様は別格だと思う。そのほか人物の動き、背景、建物の描写、セリフのセンスも、すべてが秀逸。お話は、結末がまずできているところから作り込まれているそうなので、読者達の意見によってあらすじが変わって(引き延ばされて)いくことは無さそうだけど、発表のペースがゆっくりなので、次巻の発売そして「究極のハッピーエンド」を気長に待ちたい。とてもしっかりした世界観が構築されていると思う。某作品と似ている、というレビューを見かけるが、それを言ったら婚約破棄された令嬢ものとか、異世界に転生ものとかはどうなると思うので自分は気にならない(そもそも婚約破棄、異世界ものが乱立しているのも気にならない)。

No matter what you say, this artist has an amazing ability to draw people apart. Men and women of all ages: The balance between head and body is perfect for all ages, from grandparents, middle-aged men and women, young men and women, boys and girls, infants, and even newborn babies. And status and nationality: Lord Shi-yeon, who clearly has a different face from the islanders around here, Letty, who has freckles that are easy to understand, and Konoe and Juno, who have Asian eyes. While there are many artists who can be distinguished only by differences in hair color and hairstyle, I think this artist is exceptional. Other than that, the movements of the characters, the background, the depiction of the buildings, and the sense of dialogue are all excellent. The story seems to be created from where the ending was first made, so it seems that the synopsis won't change (be delayed) depending on the readers' opinions, but the pace of presentation is slow, so I want to wait patiently for the release of the next volume and the “ultimate happy ending.” I think a very solid view of the world has been built. I see reviews that are similar to a certain work, but if I say that, I don't care about things like the daughter whose engagement has been annulled or something reincarnated in another world (I don't care that engagements are annulled in the first place, and things from another world are raging).

この作品と出会えたことに感謝！

I am grateful that I came across this work!

This review contains spoilers. 星５つでは足りません！星10個ぐらい付けたい、それくらい胸を打たれる素晴らしい作品です。舞台は海に囲まれた孤島。夜ごと現れる「黒い海」と闘うかんなぎ様と、かんなぎ様を慕い仕えるアルトの純愛の物語です。驚くのは、これが作者様のデビュー作とのことで…！先の読めないストーリーの面白さはもちろん、唯一無二の世界観とそれにマッチした美しい画、ユノイチカ先生の才能が爆発しています。日中は平穏な海が、夜になると人を襲う「黒い海」に変わり、その正体はいったい何なのか、また、かんなぎ様がなぜそれと闘わなければならないのか、全てが謎のままストーリーは進みます。ファンタジー要素とミステリー要素の合間に語られる、かんなぎエルヴァとアルトの美しい純愛に、胸がキュンキュンします。島の秘密や黒い海の正体、またかんなぎの悲しい運命も徐々に明かされ、６巻ではアルトの出生の秘密をエルヴァも知ることとなり、物語は大きな山場に…。このように、物語としても非常に卓越している作品ですが、私が特に魅力に感じている設定があります。かんなぎ様は黒い海と闘っている弊害で、身体が成長せず、例えばエルヴァの場合、26歳なのに見た目は16,７歳にしか見えません。つまり、かんなぎ様である限り、外見は永遠の少年なのです。幼かったアルトが小さいなりに頑張ってエルヴァを守る姿も健気でしたが、いつの間にか見た目年齢が逆転して、逞しく成長したアルトが年上だけど少年の姿のままのエルヴァを守る姿は、心強くて美しくて尊いです。６巻では辛い別れや大きな試練もありますが、２人のハッピーエンドを信じて次巻を楽しみに待ちたいと思います。こんなに胸を打たれる素晴らしい作品と出会えたことに感謝します！

This review contains spoilers. 5 stars isn't enough! I want to give it about 10 stars, and it's such a wonderful work that hits my heart. The stage is an isolated island surrounded by the ocean. It's a story of pure love between Kannagi-sama, who fights against the “Black Sea” that appears every night, and Alto, who loves and serves Kannagi-sama. What is surprising is that this is the author's debut work...! Not to mention the fun of the story where you can't read ahead, Yunoichika sensei's talent is exploding, and the unique worldview and beautiful pictures that match it. The peaceful sea during the day changes to the “black sea” that attacks people at night, and the story progresses while everything remains a mystery about what exactly is its true identity and why Kannagi-sama must fight against it. My heart is thrilled by the beautiful pure love between Elva Kannagi and Alto, which is told between fantasy elements and mystery elements. The secrets of the island, the true identity of the Black Sea, and the sad fate of Kannagi are gradually revealed, and in volume 6, Elva also learns the secret of Alto's birth, and the story takes place in a big mountain area... As you can see, it is a work that excels very well as a story, but there is a setting that I find particularly appealing. Kannagi-sama is an adverse effect of fighting against the Black Sea, and in the case of Elva, for example, she only looks 16 or 7 years old even though she is 26 years old. In other words, as long as he is Kannagi-sama, he looks like an eternal boy. The sight of young Alto doing his best to protect Elva when he was small was also healthy, but before I knew it, the appearance and age was reversed, and the sight of Alto, who had grown strong, protecting Elva, who was older but still as a boy, is reassuring, beautiful, and precious. There are also painful breakups and major trials in volume 6, but I believe in their happy ending and look forward to the next volume. I am grateful to have come across such a wonderful work that has struck my heart!
