あとがきが面白すぎるwww

the afterword is too funny lol lol

兄貴の目に光がなく、表情筋が常に死んでるのが印象的で、病み具合が大好物でした。摂は、弟の梓君の好意にも気付いてるし、兄貴の気持ちも理解してる。兄貴の役に立ちたい、弟さんとの仲もこじれさせたくないなのかな？好意はあっても、愛情までじゃないのかな？ヤンデレ執着兄貴がかわいそすぎるので、また戻ってほしいんだけど、こちらはスピンオフらしいので、本編探してみます。

There was no light in my older brother's eyes, and it was impressive that his facial muscles were always dying, and I loved his condition. Setsu is aware of his younger brother Azusa's kindness, and he also understands his older brother's feelings. I wonder if I want to be useful to my older brother, and I don't want my relationship with my younger brother to be disrupted? Even if there is a favor, isn't it even love? Yandere Obsession Big Brother is too pitiful, so I want him to come back, but this seems to be a spin-off, so I'll look for the main story.

良かった

good

This review contains spoilers. 本編より先にこちらを読みました自分的には本編よりもこちらの作品が好きです援助される形で始まった摂也と貴臣だけど摂也は貴臣を大切に思っていたのが伝わりました貴臣の弟の梓が登場した事で関係が複雑になり、貴臣と梓の関係が自分がいる事でこれ以上歪んではいけないと２人から離れる決意をした摂也の心情に泣けましたただ、幼い頃のトラウトで結婚は難しいだろう貴臣を摂也が幸せにしてあげて欲しかったラストシーンからそんな流れを期待しました作者様も巻末で辻褄の合わない所があると仰っていましたが、本編の摂也とこちらの摂也はちょっと別物かなと言う気がします本編で摂也が主人公の口元の黒子の話しをする場面が有り、その後摂也が姿を消した時は「ああ、貴臣の所へ帰ったんだ、やっぱり摂也は貴臣が忘れられなかったんだなぁ」と思ったら１年後戻って主役とくっついたのには違和感しか無かったです作者様には、貴×摂ハッピーエンドで描いて貰いたいで〜す

This review contains spoilers. I read this before the main story. Personally, I like this work more than the main story. It was conveyed that Setsuya and Takaomi started with being supported, but the relationship became complicated when Takaomi's younger brother Azusa appeared, and I was able to cry over the feelings of Setsuya, who decided to separate from the two if the relationship between Takatomi and Azusa wasn't further distorted by his own existence. However, I wanted Setsuya to make Takaomi happy I expected that kind of flow from the last scene. The author also said that there were things that didn't make sense at the end of the book, but I feel that Setsuya in the main story and Setsuya here are slightly different things. There was a scene in the main story where Setsuya talks about Kuroko from the main character's mouth, and when Setsuya disappeared after that, she thought, “Oh, I went back to Takaomi's place, after all, Setsuya couldn't forget Takaomi,” and when she came back one year later and stuck with the main character, there was nothing but a sense of incongruity. I want you to draw Takayasu with Happy Ending

切ないなぁ

that's sad

This review contains spoilers. 摂也のことをとても愛しく想っているのに、素直に伝えられない貴臣さんがとても切ないなぁと。摂也も貴臣さんのことちゃんと好きだと思ったんですが、違ったのかな。ちょっと残念です。結局、貴臣さんも梓も選ばなかった摂也の気持ちを貴臣さんは尊重してあげたのかな。貴臣さんは別れるとき「待ってる」って言ったのかな、と思ったので、摂也が何年かして貴臣さんの元に帰ってくると期待したのですが。。。。そううまくはいかないのですね。

This review contains spoilers. Even though I love Setsuya so much, Takaomi, who can't honestly convey it, is so sad. I thought Setsuya really liked Takaomi, but I wonder if that was wrong. It's a bit disappointing. In the end, I wonder if Takaomi respected the feelings of Setsuya, who did not choose either Takaomi or Azusa. I was wondering if Takaomi said “I'm waiting” when they broke up, so I expected that Setsuya would return to Takaomi after a few years... It's not going that well, is it?

スピンオフ作品ですよ

It's a spin-off

本作は「貴方の傍らに、ただ僕は居たいのです」の、スピンオフです。なので、ラストにモヤモヤされる方はそちらも読まれてみては？ただ、摂やくんのキャラがちょっと違うけど?

This game is a spin-off of “I Just Want to Be By Your Side.” So, if you get confused at the end, why don't you read that too? However, Setsuyakun's characters are a bit different, aren't they?

耽美…なんて切ないトライアングル

Addictive beauty... what a sad triangle

This review contains spoilers. 川◯康成作品のような、超文学的耽美さ。初っ端から惹き込まれ、読み終わった瞬間(それまで息止めてたんかというくらい)ものすごいため息出ました。歪な執着はあれど、貴臣って一途な人だと思う。いかにも金持ちが愛人を囲んでいるように見えて、其の実摂也への献身に思えるのは自分だけだろうか。貴臣の友人？の黒川が摂也に手を出そうとしたときに、摂也の意志で拒否してほしかったんじゃないかな、とか思うと貴臣が切ない。梓くんも擦れてない良い子なだけに、あぁ…となります。個人的に貴臣に報われてほしい想いが強かったので、最後が辛いですが、でもこの3人にとってこれが1番いい終わり方だったのかな。

This review contains spoilers. Super literary beauty, like works by Yasunari Kawa. I was drawn to it from the beginning, and the moment I finished reading it (almost as if I had held my breath until then), I let out a tremendous sigh. Although he has a distorted obsession, I think Takaomi is a stubborn person. I wonder if I'm the only one who seems to be really rich surrounding his lover and seems to be devotion to his actual setsuya. Takaomi's friend? When Kurokawa tried to get his hands on Setsuya, Takaomi was sad to think that they wanted Setsuya to refuse it. Azusa-kun is also a good kid who doesn't get rubbed, so ah... I personally had a strong desire to be rewarded by Takaomi, so the end was painful, but I wonder if this was the best way to end for these 3 people.

雰囲気がよい

The atmosphere is good

いいわあ。しっとりとしてて。めっちゃ時代と設定と衣装あってる。美少年オーイエスという感情が溢れてくる。

that's great. Keep it moist. There are so many different eras, settings, and costumes. The feeling of being a beautiful boy, O.S., overflows.

まとめて読める喜び✨

The joy of being able to read them all at once ✨

単話でずっと読んでいたが一冊の本としてまとめて読み進めると、最初は親切心から差し伸べたはずの摂也への手が…どんどん執着と嫉妬で歪んで行く様がはっきりと見て取れ、貴臣自信もどうすることも出来ないのであろう摂也への執拗な愛が何とも切ない…刹那の快楽に酔う貴臣とそんな貴臣に身を委ねる摂也…どうする事も出来ずただ見守るしか出来ない梓のそれぞれの心情がノスタルジックにしっとりと美しく描かれている。描き下ろしは摂也は幼い頃から魔性の男だったのだなと納得させる可愛くも哀愁漂うエピソード。

I've been reading it all the time as a single story, but when I read it all together as a book, I can clearly see how the hand to Setsuya, which should have been extended out of kindness at first... is clearly distorted by obsession and jealousy, and Takaomi's relentless love for Setsuya is so sad... Takaomi, who is drunk with momentary pleasure, and Setsuya, who surrenders herself to Takatomi... Azusa, who can't do anything but watch, is beautifully drawn nostalgically and beautifully. or It's broken. It's a cute yet melancholy episode that convinces me that Setsuya has been a demon man since he was young.

先生の遊び心が面白い

The teacher's sense of fun is interesting

This review contains spoilers. 本編は大正時代の執着ホクロ金持ち男子貴臣が、美しく儚げな摂也に執着し愛憎にまみれるお話。当て馬が出るたびにジト目で観察＆欲望スイッチが入ってしまう貴臣、「あっ、出た！」GPSも無い時代に天晴である。だが他の登場人物が大人なため、そこまでドロドロとした感じではなく読みやすい。貴臣のポエミーな心の葛藤がダダ漏れなので、作者様が描いていて恥ずかしくなってしまったらしい。心のバランスを保つためか（？）巻末で貴臣をイジりまくるのである。これが笑えて、もっと読みたくなってしまった。乙吉先生は面白い方なんだろうな。この貴臣を想像して本編を読み直すと変わった印象になり、何とも愛しく感じてしまう。すぐにはだける着物や、フンドシも大変よろしかった。このストーリーのスピン元が「貴方の傍らに、ただ僕は居たいのです」になるとのことなので、こちらも読んでみたい。

This review contains spoilers. The main story is a story about Takaomi, an obsessive and rich boy from the Taisho period, who is obsessed with the beautiful and ephemeral Setsuya and is covered in love and hate. Takaomi, who observes with his eyes and turns on the desire switch every time the guitto comes out, says, “Oh, it came out!” The weather is fine in an age where there is no GPS. However, since the other characters are adults, it doesn't feel that muddy, and it's easy to read. The conflict between Takaomi's poetical feelings was leaked out, so it seems that the author was drawing it and felt embarrassed. Is it to maintain balance of mind (?) They bully Takaomi at the end of the book. This laughed me and made me want to read more. I wonder if Otoyoshi sensei is an interesting person. When I imagine this Takaomi and reread the main story, I get a different impression, and I feel so adorable. The kimono that comes off right away and the sundoshi were also very nice. It is said that the spin source of this story is “I just want to be by your side,” so I'd like to read this as well.

エロいです

It's erotic

この作品で乙吉先生を知って、その後何冊か作者さん買いしました。個人的には絵はそれほど好みではないのですが、一コマ一コマの空気感の様なものがエロくて何度も読み返しています。エロスってダイレクトなまんま描写じゃないんですよね、心模様の中に潜むものと言いますかね。

I learned about Otoyoshi sensei through this work, and then I bought several books by the author. Personally, I don't like pictures that much, but things that look like the atmosphere of each frame are erotic and I reread them over and over again. Eros isn't a direct depiction, is it, something that lurks within mental patterns?

色っぽく切なく

Sexy and sad

This review contains spoilers. 貴方の傍に〜の続編？2人が出会う前の摂也さんの話。母を無くして困っているのを、貴臣さんに助けてもらいながら暮らしていくことに。着物の色っぽさ、時代ならではの色っぽさが溢れていました。貴臣さんの弟、絵描きの梓。摂也と同年代にもかかわらず、大人びて色気を感じ、お互いに惹かれるのに、兄の事があるため結ばれず、切なさを感じました。摂也と貴臣も好きながらも、ずっと一緒にはいられないような気がして、お互いもやもやするものを感じながらな感じが切ないです。時代BLおもしろかったです。

This review contains spoilers. A sequel to Beside You? This is Setsuya's story before the two meet. I'm in trouble because I lost my mother, so I decided to live my life while getting help from Mr. Takaomi. It was full of the sexiness of kimonos, and the sexiness unique to the times. Takaomi's younger brother, painter Azusa. Despite being the same age as Setsuya, they grew up and felt a sense of sex appeal, and even though they were attracted to each other, they didn't get together because of their older brother, and I felt sad. Even though I like Setsuya and Takaomi, I feel like they can't be together forever, and it's sad to feel that they both feel hazy. Jidai BL was interesting.

ふむふむ

Hmm hmm

This review contains spoilers. 合冊版前編後編読みました。金持ちイケメン若旦那様が美少年愛人を囲むが、腹違いの義弟に横恋慕でお邪魔虫をされ、腸煮えくり返りながらも手離さず。しかし愛人の心ここにあらずなので旦那さんは更に性格が歪んでいきます。終いには美少年愛人の心が義兄弟の狭間での板挟みに堪えきれず旦那様に別れを切り出し何とかかんとかお別れをして目の前から消え去ることに成功！します。性格の歪みが全面に押し出された様に描かれていた旦那様ですが、最終的に手離してあげた辺り等を見る限り底根は優しいと思いますよ、多分。笑

This review contains spoilers. I read the first part and the second part of the combined edition. A rich, handsome young husband surrounds his beautiful boy lover, but he is bothered by his half-belly brother-in-law due to sideways love, and he keeps getting his hands off him even though his bowels boil over and over again. However, since the lover's heart is not here, the husband's personality is further distorted. At the end of the day, the heart of the beautiful boy's lover couldn't stand being caught between her brothers-in-law, and she broke up with her husband, somehow said goodbye, and succeeded in disappearing right in front of her eyes! I will. My husband was depicted as if his personality distortions were completely pushed out, but as far as I can see the area where he finally let go of his hands, etc., I think his roots are kind, probably. lol

続きが欲しい・・・

I want more...

This review contains spoilers. なんともいえない耽美な世界観。エチシーンとしてはあっさりめに描いている雰囲気なのに、色気たっぷりでエロく感じます。ただもうちっとストーリー展開というか続いてほしかった。中途半端で終わってしまっているように感じで、モヤモヤが残ります。そういう終わり方がまた味わいとしていいのかもしれないのですが、ハピエンが好きなので、もうちょっとでも・・・・という気持ちでした。

This review contains spoilers. An indescribable, delightful view of the world. Even though it's an atmosphere drawn so easily as an ethi scene, it has plenty of sex appeal and feels erotic. However, I just wanted the story to unfold a little more, or rather, continue. It feels like it ended halfway, and it leaves a mess. Maybe it would be nice to enjoy that way of ending again, but since I like Happien, I felt like it was just a little bit more...
