本物のBLと言う感じ

It feels like a real BL

これ、作者さんの実体験かな？と思っちゃったんですけど…どうなのかな。凄くリアルでなんかファンタジーじゃないんですもん。あ〜〜リアルなゲイの恋だなと思って読みました！5巻まで読みました。最終巻のようですが。お値段の割に短すぎる?クーポン使えて良かった?内容は凄くいいのにお高いので敬遠されちゃうかも〜クーポンフル活用で是非?

Is this the author's actual experience? I was wondering... how is it. It's so real, it's not fantasy. Ah~ I read it because I thought it was a real gay love! I've read up to 5 volumes. It looks like the last volume. too short for the price? Glad I was able to use the coupon? The content is really good, but it's expensive, so they might be shunned ~ why don't you make full use of coupons?

ドラマから

From dramas

現実での同性の恋愛って自分が思う以上に大変なんだろうなと思いました。普段BL読んでると麻痺するので一瞬目が覚めたような感覚になりました。

I was wondering if same-sex romance in real life would be harder than I thought. I usually get paralyzed when I read BL, so I felt like I woke up for a moment.

出会えてよかった

I'm glad we met

ドラマ化するのをきっかけに読んでみようかなと軽い気持ちで読み始めたけど‥よかった。絵がキラキラしてないのが逆にリアルでなおよかった。少女マンガと合わせたような作品も大好きですが、現実だなーと思える作品も好きなので読めて良かったです。結婚のハードルは高いけど、こんなふうに隣に並んでくれる相手がいる幸せを感じられる素敵な作品でした。

I started reading it with a light feeling that I would read it in the wake of it being made into a drama, but... it was great. The fact that the picture wasn't sparkling was, on the contrary, very realistic. I also love works that seem to be combined with girls' manga, but I also like works that seem real, so I'm glad I was able to read them. The hurdles for marriage are high, but it was a wonderful work where I felt the happiness of having someone who lined up next to me like this.

良かった！

That was great!

This review contains spoilers. みなさんのコメント見て知ったんですが、ドラマ化するんですね！楽しみです！！東くんがすきなんだ…を意識してからが、とってもとっても可愛いです。

This review contains spoilers. I found out by watching everyone's comments, and it's going to be made into a drama! I'm looking forward to it!! Since I realized that Higashi-kun likes it... it's so, so cute.

描写はライトめ

Depictions are lights

5巻まで読みましたがストーリー重視で絵も可愛くて、最後まで読みやすいと感じました。全体的に平和でほのぼのしているのでほっこりしたい方におすすめです。少し気になったのが、セクマイについて触れる時に少し説明口調のように感じた点です。教材？というか、漫画で学ぶセクマイ？のような印象が少しあったと個人的には思います。完全に個人的な感覚なのですが、没入していたところに少し現実に引き戻される感覚があったなぁと思いました。

I read up to 5 volumes, but the focus was on the story, the pictures were cute, and I felt that it was easy to read until the end. Overall, it is peaceful and heartwarming, so it is recommended for those who want to relax. What bothered me a bit was that it felt like a bit of an explanatory tone when touching on sexmai. teaching materials? Or rather, sexuals learned through comics? I personally think I had a slight impression like that. It's a completely personal feeling, but when I was immersed in it, I felt a bit drawn back to reality.

1巻の感想

Impressions of volume 1

This review contains spoilers. タイトル通り普通の恋愛をリアルに描いていると思いました。ノンケとゲイの出会いからお付き合いと距離の縮め方がリアルでした。付き合ったきっけけも仲がいいからこのままゲイバレで離れたくないとノンケの後輩からの提案で恋人同士に、しかしそれ以上は進まないノンケだから。そんな二人のお話です。

This review contains spoilers. As the title suggests, I thought it was a realistic depiction of a normal romance. It was a real way to shorten relationships and distance from the encounter between nonke and gay people. The reason they started dating was also on good terms, so they became lovers due to suggestions from Nonke's juniors that they didn't want to leave due to gay barre, but that's because it didn't progress any further. This is a story about two such people.

当事者として

As a party

私は女性なんですが、ビアンよりのバイです。一応同性愛者でもあるのかなと自分でも思っているのですが、なかなか他人には言えたことがないです。読んでいてとても共感できる内容が続いており、ほのぼのしながらもとっても胸にくるものがあります。誰かに否定されずに受け入れてもらえるって素敵なことだなと改めて感じました。

I'm a woman, but I'm more bi than Bian. I'm wondering if they're also homosexual for the time being, but I haven't been able to say it to anyone else. The content I can really sympathize with when I read it continues, and there is something heartwarming yet very touching. I felt once again how wonderful it is to be accepted without being denied by anyone.

普通とは

What is normal

派手さはないけど丁寧に着実に進む二人がいい。ただ途中からふみさんの顔が変わりすぎて別人のように幼くなったのが残念。

I want two people who aren't flashy but move carefully and steadily. However, it's a pity that Fumi's face changed so much along the way that she became young like a different person.

泣ける

I can cry

This review contains spoilers. ゲイの自分と両親の話がとても理想的で、自分の人生と重ねて読みながら号泣してしまいました。まあ、うちは同性愛に理解がない家庭なのでこううまくはいきませんけど。。エッチなシーンがないのがストーリー重視の作品には合っていていいですね。ただ、根本的なところになっちゃいますが、ゲイとノンケのカップルは基本ないです。ゲイの自分が女性とキスしたり絶対無理でどう転んでもあり得ない。そこが読みながらもどかしかったりもします。だから、現実的ではないファンタジーのような感覚で読みました。作品としては大好きです

This review contains spoilers. The story of my gay self and my parents was so ideal that I cried while reading it over and over with my own life. Well, my family doesn't understand homosexuality, so it's not going so well... The fact that there are no naughty scenes is good for stories that focus on stories. However, it has become fundamental, but there are basically no gay and non-gay couples. It's absolutely impossible for my gay self to kiss a woman, so it's impossible no matter how I fall. It also makes me feel relaxed while reading it. So I read it with a sense of fantasy that wasn't realistic. I love it as a work

リアルに感じるBL

BL that feels real

This review contains spoilers. 同性愛に対する、当事者以外の感覚がリアルなんじゃないかな？って感じました。なんか最後の方が足早にあっけなく終わってしまって残念でした。元カレ周弥さんがでてきたあたりは、わかりやすく丁寧に描かれていたのに…最終巻だけが残念でした

This review contains spoilers. Isn't the sense of homosexuality real other than those involved? I felt that. It was a pity that the last one ended so quickly. The area where my ex-boyfriend Shuya came out was carefully drawn in an easy-to-understand manner... only the last volume was disappointing

考えさせられる

It makes me think

いろんな性的嗜好の人が出てきて、考えさせられた。絵はイマイチだけど、主人公の笑顔がとても可愛くてほっこりする。えちシーンは一つもないしキスも小鳥のような感じだけど、内容が割と良かった。

People with various sexual preferences came up and made me think. The picture isn't good, but the main character's smile is so cute and makes me feel relaxed. There wasn't a single pooch scene, and the kiss felt like a little bird, but the content was pretty good.

東くんかわいい

Higashi-kun is cute

序盤のあまりBLぽくない絵柄が読みやすかった途中から上手くなってしまったのか絵柄が大きく変わってキラキラしてしまった最初の方のあたたかみがある絵柄好き東くんのキャラがとても良い

The pattern that wasn't very BL like at the beginning was easy to read; did they get better from the middle? The pattern changed drastically and the character Higashi-kun, who has the warmth of the first one and sparkles, is very good

いいね

nice

This review contains spoilers. 似たような良い話は沢山あるけど、初めて知った単語（嗜好）でいつもより考えこみました。ラストの子供はいらないかな？どちらにせよ、この手の良い話は周りに恵まれて温かく見守る人ばかり、この作品にはもっとハードな反対するキャラに引っ掻き回して欲しかった。

This review contains spoilers. There are many similar good stories, but I thought about it more than usual with the first words (preferences) I knew. Don't you want the last kid? Either way, this kind of good story is full of people who are blessed to be around and watch warmly, and I wanted this work to be scratched by harsher opposing characters.

ゲイとノンケ

Gay and nonsense

人のいいゲイの一良とノンケのケイ。一良はゲイであることに後ろめたさがあり、いつもどこか遠慮がちで自信がなさげ。ケイは他人に興味がないノンケ。会社の同僚で、たまたま映画館で出会い友達とした親しくなる。一良はケイに惹かれ始める。ケイは自分の気持ちがハッキリとはわからないけれど、一良との距離ができるのが嫌だと感じ付き合おうと提案する。ケイはアセクシュアルという、恋愛感情や性的欲求を持てない人だと自覚していたが、一良にはその感情をもつことができるとわかり、その思いを大切にし一良と向き合っていく。一良は昔に付き合った初めての人に対して良くない思い出があり、どうしても臆病になるが、ケイの揺るぎない思いのお陰で少しずつ自信をつけていきます。5巻まであり、途中個性的な幼馴染みやお隣さんのキャラなどは若干鬱陶しくご都合主義で冷めかけましたし、説明が多過ぎたり、絵もだいぶ拙い箇所がありましが、同姓同士の付き合いや結婚感に対してとても踏み込んで描いてあり、エチ描写なしでも楽しめる内容でした。

Friendly gay Ichiryo and Nonke Kei. Kazuyoshi is ashamed that he is gay, and he always tends to be hesitant about something, and he lacks confidence. Kay isn't interested in others. They are company colleagues, and they happen to meet at a movie theater and become close friends. Ichiryo begins to be attracted to Kei. Kei doesn't know her feelings clearly, but she doesn't like being able to keep a distance with Ichiryo, so she suggests getting along. I was aware that Kei was an asexual person who had no romantic feelings or sexual desires, but I learned that Ichiro could have those feelings, and he cherishes those feelings and confronts Kazuyoshi. Ichiryo has bad memories of the first person he dated in the past, and he inevitably becomes timid, but thanks to Kei's unwavering feelings, he gradually gains confidence. There are up to 5 volumes, and the characters with unique childhood friends and neighbors along the way were slightly depressing and almost cooled down due to the principle of expediency, and there were too many explanations, and the pictures were quite poor, but they were drawn in a very deep way about relationships and feelings of marriage between people of the same surname, and the content was enjoyable even without depiction of etiquette.

絵もストーリーも良かったです。

The pictures and story were great.

This review contains spoilers. ストーリーが結構現実的で人を好きになれない性癖の人、同性愛者が一緒に恋愛をして好きとは何だろう普通の恋愛とは何だろう、他の人と違う自分を理解してくれるのかなど色々悩みも抱えながら喧嘩もしたりするけどお互い本音を打ち明けたり歩み寄ったりしながら好きとは？の答え合わせもして２人のペースで進展させていく感じがいいなと思いました。カミングアウトした場合の親や友達との関係が壊れないか、世間体、子供は作れない(現実には特別養子縁組をして子供を迎える人達もいる)、など問題も沢山あるからこれからも意見がぶつかったりするだろうけどこの２人なら乗り越えてずっと一緒にいるんだろうなと思いました。文原は東より一回り程年上だけど同性愛者だからこその悩みを抱えてオロオロしてるけど東が意外と堂々としてて頼りになるし、お互い甘えたり嫉妬してみたり、ずっと一緒にいる為にどうしたらいいのかとか、好きの表現を伝える為に一生懸命だったり、ちゃんと普通の恋愛してるんだなと思います。

This review contains spoilers. The story is quite realistic, and people with proclivities who don't like people, are homosexuals who fall in love together, what is a normal romance, what is a normal romance, and they fight while having various worries, such as whether they understand who they are different from others, but what do you like while confiding their true intentions and walking close to each other? I thought it would be nice to have a feeling of putting the answers together and making progress at the pace of the two of them. There are many issues such as not being able to break up relationships with parents and friends when they come out, the social world, and not being able to have children (in reality, there are people who adopt special children), so opinions will clash from now on, but I thought these two would overcome them and stay together forever. Fumihara is about one size older than Higashi, but since he is homosexual, he is wandering around, but Azuma is surprisingly imposing and dependable, and they spoil and be jealous of each other, and they work hard to convey expressions they like, such as what to do to stay together the whole time, and I think they are in a normal relationship.

ほのぼの

Heartwarming

This review contains spoilers. タイトル通り普通の恋愛です。ただ男性同士というところでやっぱりいろいろ考えさせられます。ゲイと言う事での世間体とか親戚付き合いとか…現実でもまだまだ難しい課題がたくさんあるんだろうなと思いました。ふみさんのお母さんが出てきたからのシーンでは心打たれました。エロは全くありませんしいつの間にか2人は身体の関係をもってたみたいです！笑

This review contains spoilers. As the title suggests, it's a normal love affair. However, when it comes to men, it still makes me think about a lot of things. I was wondering if there are still many difficult issues even in reality, such as social relationships due to homosexuality or relationships with relatives. I was struck by the scene where Fumi's mother came out. There's no eroticism at all, and it seems like the two had a physical relationship before I knew it! lol

いいお話でした

That was a good story

最近話題の性の多様性について色々考えさせられました。主人公の2人が他人と比べて悩みつつも、自分なりの幸せを見つけて突き進む姿が素敵でした！シリーズも読みました！面白かったです。

It made me think a lot about gender diversity, which has recently been a hot topic. It was wonderful to see the two main characters find their own happiness and push forward while worrying compared to others! I read the series too! That was interesting.

If you think so, that's normal, and you're right! It was a very good story, but where is the episode called Colleague? I was worried that the pattern had changed too much (I liked the first one).

This review contains spoilers. ストーリーは本当に練られていて良いお話でした。ただ・・・・絵柄がばらつきがあって話が進むにつれて幼顔に変わっていく感じがして一寸残念でした。思わず最初から確認してしまうほど子供顔になってしまって・・・。お話はとてもほのぼのとして良かっただけに期待しています。

This review contains spoilers. The story was really well thought out and it was a nice story. However... there were variations in the pattern, and I felt that they changed to a young face as the story progressed, which was a bit disappointing. I had such a childish face that I couldn't help but check it from the beginning... I'm just hoping that the story was very heartwarming and good.
