最高におもしろいです！

It's really interesting!

ほのぼのグルメ漫画かと思ったら深い世界観と作り込みに魅了されました！市川春子さんの作品が好きな人は絶対好きだと思います！伏線の回収もすごいので読んでください！！

When I thought it was a heartwarming gourmet comic, I was fascinated by the deep worldview and design! I think people who like Haruko Ichikawa's work will definitely love it! The collection of foreshadowing is also amazing, so please read it!!

絵も内容も心にしみて来る

Both the picture and the content soak into my heart

絵も独特、展開は淡々としていますが、そのどちらも設定の話にマッチして、何か心にほのぼのとそして哀しく染みて来るような作品です。また、動きがあまりないような絵ですが、それでいて勝手に動きが見えて来る、感じて来る作品です。とても?です。

The pictures are also unique, and the development is bland, but both of them match the story of the setting, and it's a work where something heartwarming and sad seeps into the heart. Also, the picture doesn't seem to have much movement, yet it's a work where you can see and feel movement without permission. very? That's it.

ある意味落ち着く

It calms down in a sense

絵本調の絵が柔らかいなと思いました心の光や闇がわかりやすいかも。ノーマルモードよりデフォルメモードの目の方が好きかも。

I thought the picture book style was soft. Maybe it's easy to understand the light and darkness of the heart. You might like the eyes in deformed mode better than normal mode.

とても好きです！

I love it very much!

とてもすばらしい作品です！大人のための童話のようで独特の絵のタッチも味わい深く良い。人間が始めた戦争の責任をとらされた神が罰として人間にされてしまいます。元神様が始める弁当屋。すごく面白いです。次の4巻で完結なのでしょうか？できればこの不思議で心暖まる、そしてちょっぴり切ないお話をずっと読んでいたい。

It's such a great piece! It's like a children's story for adults, and the unique touch of the picture is also tasteful and nice. God, who was held responsible for the wars started by humans, is turned into a human as punishment. Bento shop started by Genshin. It's really interesting. Will the next 4 volumes complete it? If possible, I'd like to keep reading this mysterious, heartwarming, and slightly sad story.

It was a work with a strange view of the world. It's finished, but it was fun until the end. I wanted to read other works as well.

奥深いお話

A profound story

シンプルでいて、とても丁寧で上手な描線と画風が心地よい作品です。キャラクターたちの日常でありながら、実は深く重い設定が込められているので次を読みたいと引き込まれます。

It is a simple, very careful, and comfortable work with excellent lines and style of painting. Even though it's the characters' everyday life, it actually contains deep and heavy settings, so I'm drawn in when I want to read the next one.

おもしろかった！

That was interesting!

ご飯漫画と思いきや、世界設定や主人公、周りの登場人物たちそれぞれの過去が面白く、毎話さまざまな疑問点や新しい情報が散りばめられていて楽しかったです。絵柄も可愛くて個性があり、この世界観は唯一無二だと思いました。次の巻もとても楽しみです。

I thought it was a rice comic, but the world setting, the protagonist, and the past of the characters around them were interesting, and it was fun because every episode was interspersed with various questions and new information. The designs are cute and unique, and I thought this view of the world was unique. I'm also really looking forward to the next volume.

絵と世界観がよい

Good picture and view of the world

This review contains spoilers. 一巻。とても面白かった。とある国で信仰される神様は隣の国では邪神扱いで、それが原因で戦争になる。その罰として人間として謹慎生活を送ることになった主人公。弁当屋として一日一善を目標に暮らしている。おとぎ話のようなほのぼのとした絵とお話に混ざる切なさ。凄く引き込まれる。弁当屋のマスコットのチュンが可愛い。せせりの部位を説明する時にチュンを使うシーンが面白かった。人と神様達の愛と憎しみが重い。戦争を始めたのは人間というライラックの言葉も印象的。

This review contains spoilers. One volume. It was very interesting. Gods that are worshipped in one country are treated as evil gods in neighboring countries, and wars occur because of that. The main character ended up living a life of confinement as a human being as punishment. As a bento shop, I live my life with the goal of one good day. Heartwarming fairytale-like pictures and a sense of sadness mixed into the story. It really draws me in. Chun, the mascot of the bento shop, is cute. The scene where Chun is used to explain the part of a slurp was interesting. The love and hate between people and gods is heavy. The lilac phrase that started the war was a human is also impressive.

人が起こした戦争だよ

It's a war started by people

子供向けの絵本にしても良いような可愛い作画にしっかりとしたセリフ神のせいで起きた戦争ではなく「人が起こした戦争だよ」と論点をすり替えず、邪神に生かされた命をいかにするべきか模索するライラックの旦那、作画が可愛いのですが重いというか意外と考えさせられる内容です。続きが読みたいです

It's a cute drawing that can be used as a picture book for children, with firm lines. It's not a war that occurred because of God, Lilac's husband searches for what to do with a life kept alive by an evil god, and the content makes me think it's surprising that the drawing is cute but heavy. I want to read more

独特の世界観

A unique view of the world

戦争が起きたのがソランジュのせいにされたのは何故？彼女は何もしなかった、だけではないのかしら。力を使ったから？まだまだ分からないことが多くて気になるー！レイニーは何とも思ってないみたいだけど、ライラック様との恋要素も気になるところ。正直ラブ要素挟まると思ってなかった作品だから意外で嬉しい。

Why was Solange blamed for the war? I wonder if it's just that she didn't do anything. because I used force? There are still so many things I don't understand, so I'm worried! Rainey doesn't seem to think anything about it, but I'm also concerned about the love element with Lilac. Honestly, I wasn't expecting love elements to be sandwiched between them, so it's surprising and I'm happy.

かわいい絵柄にゆめゆめ油断なされるな…

Yume Yume don't let your guard down with cute designs...

めちゃくちゃ面白いです。善でも悪でも一括りに神様と呼ばれるカーストのてっぺんに座す存在が地上に降りた時、我々人間の知見を手に入れる事が出来るのかどうか。人間の知見を手に入れた神は、果たして神と呼べるのかどうか…と。今のところ神様の生きる知恵が全てお弁当に集約されているのもほのぼの面白い。謎がいっぱいで2巻も楽しみ。※ひとつだけ最初の謎が解明。それはチュンちゃんの太ましい脚の謎。なるほどかわいい。

It's insanely interesting. When beings sitting at the top of a caste called gods, whether good or evil, come down to earth, can we gain knowledge as humans? I wonder if a god who has gained human knowledge can really be called a god... It's also heartwarming and interesting that all of God's wisdom for living has been collected in bento boxes. There are so many mysteries that I'm looking forward to volume 2. ※Only one mystery at the beginning has been solved. That is the mystery of Chun-chan's thick legs. I see, it's cute.

続きが楽しみ！(追記しました)

I'm looking forward to the continuation! (added)

This review contains spoilers. 立ち読み分を読んで気になっていたのですが、お得なクーポンが出たので購入しました。絵が独特なので、今まで読んでこなかったタイプのものですが、とても面白かったです。レイニーが可愛くて、ギャグのようなやりとり(ここの絵が可愛くて好き)もたくさんあって面白かった。レイニーの言葉には不思議な力がある気がします。国王陛下もだからこそ秘密を打ち明けたのかな。神だった頃に助けた兄弟には届いた感じがします。でも、1巻だけではまだまだ謎がたくさんあります。同居人のダリアとの関係とか…。次巻には新しい登場人物も出てくるようだし、今後の展開が楽しみです。長く続いて欲しいです。レイニーの玉子焼き美味しそう。食べてみたい！チュンちゃんとベルナルドが可愛いです！(追記)2巻まで。すぐに購入しちゃいました。待ちに待ってた私的期待のヒット作品！2巻は1巻での疑問や伏線をかなり回収できる感じです。レイニーとダリヤの(幼い頃の)出逢いのこと、レイニーとお弁当、チュンちゃんとの出逢いなんかもあります。1巻からは想像もつかないような無機質なレイニーの過去なんだね。国王陛下(ナタリオ)の身体の秘密も…これは悪意のある者に知られたらまずいやつでは…?ナタリオ推しなので～…怖いなぁ?この兄弟とはこれからも関わりがありそうなのでそれは嬉しいけども。シリアスな部分もあり、ギャグ的な部分もあり…個人的にはレイニーの最終目的が良いものに変わってくれればいいのに…と思うのですがね…分冊版も出たので待てなかったら買っちゃうかも?

This review contains spoilers. I read the standing reading and was curious, but a discount coupon came up, so I bought it. The picture is unique, so it's a type I haven't read until now, but it was very interesting. Rainey was cute, and there were lots of gag like interactions (I like the pictures here because they are cute), which was interesting. I feel that Rainey's words have a mysterious power. I wonder if that's why His Majesty the King also revealed his secrets. I feel like it reached the brothers I helped when I was a god. However, there are still many mysteries in volume 1 alone. Like my relationship with my housemate Dahlia... It looks like new characters will appear in the next volume, and I'm looking forward to future developments. I want it to last a long time. Rainy's tamagoyaki looks delicious. I want to try it! Chun and Bernardo are so cute! (Additional note) Up to 2 volumes. I bought it right away. The hit work I've been waiting for and I'm personally looking forward to! Volume 2 seems to be able to collect quite a bit of the questions and foreshadowing in volume 1. There are also encounters between Rainey and Dariya (when they were young), Rainie and Bento, and Jun-chan. It's an inorganic past of Rainy that you can't even imagine from volume 1. The secret of His Majesty the King (Natalio)'s body... wouldn't this be bad if someone with bad intentions knew...? I recommend Natalio, so... it's scary, isn't it? It seems like they will continue to be involved with these siblings, so I'm happy about that though. There's a serious part, and there's a gag part... Personally, I think it would be nice if Laney's final goal changed to something good... but... the split edition also came out, so maybe I'll buy it if I can't wait?

素敵な作品を発見！

I found a wonderful work!

This review contains spoilers. 邪神が謹慎中に善行を積むため、人間の姿でお弁当屋さん…。とても斬新な設定です。絵も特徴的ですが私はかなり好き。何ならチュンちゃんやベルナルドのぬいぐるみが欲しいぞ！拝読前のイメージは“ほのぼの系の可愛いお話”でしたが…。いや、もちろんほのぼのして可愛くもあるけれど、それだけではなかった。キャラクターたちの言葉がとても響きます。ライラックさんの｢戦争を起こしたのは神ではなく人｣というセリフ、まさしくその通りだと。実際ソランジュ様自身は何もしていないですよね。彼女を神として崇める国と、邪神として恐れる国が信仰の違いで起こした争い。ある意味とばっちり…。ライラックさんは一見いかついけど人間ができた人ですごく好きです。と言うか登場人物がみんな魅力的。これからも応援していきたい作品です。

This review contains spoilers. Since the evil gods do good deeds while under arrest, it is a bento shop in human form... It's a very novel setting. The picture is also characteristic, but I like it quite a bit. If anything, I want stuffed animals like Chun-chan and Bernardo! My image before reading it was “a cute heartwarming story,” but... No, of course they are heartwarming and cute, but that wasn't all. The characters' words really resonate. Lilac's line, “It was not God who started the war, but people,” is exactly true. Actually, Solange herself didn't do anything, did she? A dispute between a country that worships her as a god and a country that fears her as an evil god due to differences in faith. in a sense, it's perfect... Lilac is tough at first glance, but I really like her because she is a human being. Or rather, all of the characters are fascinating. This is a work I would like to continue supporting.

不穏とほんわかな可愛さを持つ

It has a disturbing and warm cuteness

This review contains spoilers. 人の姿になって謹慎中の神、レイニー。弁当屋になって1日一膳をモットーに過ごしている。同居人のダリアや北の国の国王ナタリオ、その兄の大臣ライラック。其々にまだ隠された背景があるようでこれからの展開が楽しみ。相棒のニワトリのチュンちゃんや魔物のペットのベルナルドもなんとなく可愛くて不穏な雰囲気は漂うのにほんわかと可愛い癒しが先立つ。2巻が楽しみな作品だ。

This review contains spoilers. Rainy is a god who has taken the form of a human being and is under arrest. It has become a bento shop and I spend my time with the motto of one meal a day. Her housemate Dahlia, King Natalio of the North, and her older brother, Minister Lilac. There still seems to be a hidden background to each of them, so I'm looking forward to future developments. My partner, Chun-chan the chicken, and Bernardo, the monster's pet are somehow cute and unsettling, but warm, and cute healing comes first. Volume 2 is a work I'm looking forward to.

面白いですよ〜！！！

It's interesting~!!

お弁当屋さんをやってる神様なんて発想がすごい！！もとはこの神様のせいで争いごとが起きて罰として人間になって生活をしてるということなんだけど人間もまた何を信じて崇めてきたかによるんだと思う。たとえ異形としても信じることによって神様として成るみたいな。玉子焼き美味しそうなのでこのお弁当食べてみたい。ベルナルドがかわいくて大好き！！！早く続きが読みたい！！！

The idea of God running a bento shop is amazing!! Originally, disputes occurred because of this god, and they lived as human beings as punishment, but I think it also depends on what humans have believed and worshipped. It's like being formed as a god by believing, even if it's a variant. The tamagoyaki looks delicious, so I want to try this bento. I love how cute Bernardo is!! I want to read more soon!!!

正統派ファンタジー

orthodox fantasy

可愛いほのぼのとした絵柄でギャグも面白いので騙されてしまいそうですが、中身それほどほのぼのしてません（褒めてます）お弁当屋さんとそれを取り巻く人々の物語ですが、神とは何か、人間とは何か。人の情とは、業とは。そんなものを訴えてきます。そういうの大好物です！ありがとうございます！このまま伏線をどう回収するのか、明るい希望の話になるのか、ダークファンタジーに進むのか、すごく楽しみです。単調な絵と思いきや、ものすごく安定した作画なので、安心してストーリーに没入できます。この可愛らしい絵でライラック（ヒーロー？）のイケメンぶりがわかるのが良きです。次巻待ってます！！

It's a cute, heartwarming pattern and the gag is interesting, so it seems like you'll be fooled, but the contents aren't that heartwarming (I'm praising you). It's a story about a bento shop and the people surrounding it, but what is a god and what is a human being. Human feelings are karma. I'm going to sue for something like that. It's my favorite food like that! Thank you so much! I'm really excited to see how the foreshadowing will continue to be collected, whether it will be a story of bright hope, and whether it progresses to dark fantasy. I thought it was a monotonous picture, but the drawing is extremely stable, so I can immerse myself in the story without worry. Lilac in this lovely picture (hero?) It's nice to know how handsome he is. I'm waiting for the next volume!!

Evil God's Bento Shop

絵柄がなんか良いコミティアとかで売ってそうな感じで、展開もハートフルのようで、安心できない課金して読んでるけど、最新刊も早いとこ出て欲しい

I feel like they're selling it at some good Comitia or something with a good design, and the development seems to be heartwarming, and I'm reading it with an uneasy charge, but I want the latest issue to come out soon
