秀逸なタイトル

An excellent title

This review contains spoilers. 聖書の「創世記」イヴに見立てたロマンあるタイトルがいい。心に様々な人格が生み出された解離性同一症の男と、彼の中のひとりを好きになった男の話。人格統合の際にお別れをするという、この病状では見慣れた展開のストーリーだが、BLとしての話構成も台詞も良くて上下あっという間に読み終えた。人格交代した見た目も、精神的にどうゆう状況なのかも分かりやすくて、えちも写実的で複雑な2人の心情描写が切なくて良かった。

This review contains spoilers. I want a romantic title that is likened to “Genesis” Eve in the Bible. A story about a man with dissociative identity who developed various personalities in his mind, and a man who fell in love with one of them. It's a story with a familiar development in this medical condition, where people say goodbye during personality integration, but the story structure and dialogue as BL were good, and I finished reading it up and down in a blink of an eye. It was easy to understand how their personalities had changed and what kind of mental situation they were in, and I'm glad that the realistic and complicated emotional depiction of the two was not sad.

人間の孤独を描いた物語

A story about human loneliness

タイトルが旧約聖書のアダムの肋骨から来ているとすると、もともと1つだった存在への憧れ、どうしようもなく惹かれる関係性、欠けたものを相手で埋めようとする感覚でが想起されます。どこからが愛でどこからが依存なのかわからない曖昧さも、この作品の魅力です。本来の聖書では、肋骨=補い合う関係と言う文脈ですが、この作品ではもともと1つだったのに戻れない、だから執着するというニュアンスが強く出ています。それと相手がいないと成立しない自分への怖さも。どちらがアダムでどちらが肋骨なのか。それともどちらとも欠けているものを抱えていて、寂しさや孤独や辛さといった負の感情が共鳴しているのか…。肋骨=失った一部だとすると、相手はただの恋人じゃなくて、自分を成立させるためのパーツでもあります。そこからくる執着ややるせなさが、この作品に映画のような陰影を与えています。愛情と依存の境目が曖昧で、だからこそあの苦しさや色気が出ているんですね。

If the title comes from Adam's rib in the Old Testament, it reminds me of a longing for existence that was originally one, a relationship where people are helplessly attracted, and the feeling of trying to fill in what is missing with their partner. The vagueness of not knowing where love comes from and where dependency comes from is also an appeal of this work. In the original Bible, it is a context where ribs = complementary relationships, but in this work, there is a strong nuance that they cannot go back to being one, so they are obsessed. Also, I'm afraid of myself that I wouldn't be able to make it without a partner. Which one is Adam and which one is a rib? Or do they both have something lacking, and negative feelings such as loneliness, loneliness, and pain resonate... If a rib = a lost part, your partner isn't just a lover, it's also a part to establish yourself. The obsession and reluctance that comes from there give this film a cinematic shadow. The line between love and dependency is vague, and that's why that pain and sex appeal come out.

2巻でしっかり上手く纏まっている‼️

It's well organized in 2 volumes ‼️

難しい題材を丁寧に無理なく描かれていた。どんな人格でも元は主人格の性格なんだから、全員同じで全員が個性で私的には一人の人間に見えたな。人って色んな一面があるからね。後はえろえろが見え見え?✨で、大人版だったっけと驚きました??色んな意味で満足??

Difficult subjects were drawn carefully and without difficulty. Any personality is originally the personality of the main character, so everyone was the same, everyone had their own personality, and it seemed like a single person in private. That's because people have many facets. can you see eroero after that? ✨ and I was surprised that it was an adult version?? satisfied in many ways??

内容が濃かった！なのにしっかりエッチもありで面白かったです〜♡読み応えありでした。同じ顔でも、人格が変わったことがすぐ分かる描写がすごくうまい！

The content was intense! But it also had a lot of sex and it was interesting~ ♡ It was a great read. The depiction is so good that you can tell right away that your personality has changed, even with the same face!

めっちゃ　丁寧に描かれる

Very carefully drawn

This review contains spoilers. ２巻あるので最初　謎だったことがすごく丁寧に明かされる過程がよんで行って素晴らしかった大きなコマとかも多いのですごく絵が綺麗

This review contains spoilers. Since there are 2 volumes, the process where what was a mystery at first was revealed very carefully, and there are many wonderful large frames, etc., so the pictures are so beautiful

ストーリーもエロもいい！

The story and eroticism are good too!

This review contains spoilers. ストーリーもエロもありいい作品だった〜他のレビューでも書いてる通り、他カプも出てきて、そっちのカプも気になる〜他カプも好みすぎてやばい。他カプの同人誌欲しい

This review contains spoilers. It was a great work with both story and eroticism ~ as I wrote in the other reviews, other caps also came out, and I'm worried about those caps~ I liked the other caps too much, which is terrible. I want doujinshi with other captions

不覚にも泣いちまいましいた(T_T)

I was crying unknowingly (T_T)

This review contains spoilers. 性同一性障害を題材にしたストーリー重視かなと思いましたが、BL要素もしっかりあります。他の人格を統合していく過程が胸が苦しくなっちゃって…。わずか２巻でこの満足感。初めて購入した作者様ですが他の作品も読んでみたくなりました。途中途中で潔癖人格を持つ四季くんがちょっとクスッとさせてくれます。

This review contains spoilers. I thought it would focus on stories about gender identity disorder, but there are also solid BL elements. The process of integrating other personalities became heartbreaking... I'm so satisfied with only 2 volumes. I bought it for the first time, but it made me want to read other works as well. Halfway through, Shiki-kun, who has a clean personality, makes me feel a little nervous.

運命の分身と出会い救済される感動作！

A moving film where you meet your alter ego of fate and be saved!

This review contains spoilers. 多重人格という難しい題材を、巧みにBLへと落とし込んだ感動作。６つの人格を持った相手との恋愛の難しさ、忘れていた過去の記憶、解離性同一性障害の原因と治療、人格の統合、濃密なラブシーンと、盛り沢山な内容が２巻の中にギュっと凝縮されています。６つの人格を持つ人物の描き分けはとても難しいと思うのですが、同じ顔でありながら表情や雰囲気がガラッと変わり別人に見えるところが、さすが先生の画力！そして、難しいテーマながら、ラブシーンもしっかりページ数をさいて描かれているので、BLとしての満足度も高いです。別人格同士で主人公を取り合ったり、別人格と◯◯した主人公を浮気者扱いしたりと、多重人格でしか描けない設定が新鮮味あります。多重人格だと分かっても態度を変えることなく、全ての人格に優しく接する悠真が、一羽やレイ始め各人格の心を癒やしていくのですが、最後に主人格に悠真を譲って消えることを決断する◯◯が切ないです。とはいえ、人格が統合された後も、主人格の中に時折り消えた人格の面影が垣間見えることがあり、それを感じた悠真がホッとするところも泣けます。多重人格でなくとも人の心の中には様々な面があって、環境や場面によって自分の嫌な面が表に出てしまうことがありますよね。そういう面を自分自身では否定しがちなのですが、悠真のように、そういうところも受け止めて愛してくれる人が身近にいれば、それが生きていくための大きな拠り所になるんじゃないかと、本作品を読んでしみじみ感じました。ちなみに、タイトル「アダムの肋骨」は、『創世記』にある、神がアダムの妻であるイブをアダムの肋骨から作った逸話から…と思われます。神は、アダムが孤独にならないようイブを作りました。アダムとイブは違う人格でありながら元は１つであり、互いに助け合い依存しあって共に生きていく存在です。一羽とレイも異なる人格として、あまりにも辛い子ども時代を互いに助け合って生きてきました。人格が統合され表からは消え去っても、心の中で二人（もちろん他の人格も）は共存し、さらに悠真という「運命の分身」を得たことで、これからはきっと幸せな人生を送ってくれるのだと思います。たくさんの方にぜひ、この爽快な読後感を味わっていただきたいです。

This review contains spoilers. A moving film that skillfully incorporates the difficult subject of multiple personalities into BL. A lot of content is tightly condensed into 2 volumes, such as the difficulties of falling in love with a partner who has six personalities, past memories that have been forgotten, causes and treatment of dissociative identity disorder, personality integration, and intense love scenes. I think it's very difficult to draw people with the six personalities, but the fact that they have the same face but completely change their facial expressions and atmosphere and look like different people is truly what the teacher's drawing ability is amazing! Also, although it is a difficult theme, love scenes are also drawn with a good number of pages, so satisfaction as BL is also high. There are fresh settings that can only be depicted with multiple personalities, such as competing for the main character with different personalities, and treating the main character who did ◯◯ with another personality as a cheater. Even if they know they have multiple personalities, there is no change in attitude, and Yushin, who gently treats all personalities, heals the hearts of each personality, starting with Ichiba and Rei, but it's sad to finally decide to disappear by handing over Yushin to the main character. Nonetheless, even after the personalities have been integrated, there are times when vestiges of personalities that have disappeared from time to time can be glimpsed in the main character, and it makes me cry even when Yushin feels relieved. There are various aspects in a person's mind even if they don't have multiple personalities, and depending on the environment or situation, aspects you don't like may come to the surface. I tend to deny that aspect to myself, but reading this work I really felt that if there are people close to me who accept and love such things, like Yuma, that would be a major foundation for living. Incidentally, the title “Adam's rib” seems to be from an anecdote in “Genesis” where God made Eve, the wife of Adam, from Adam's rib... God made Eve so Adam wouldn't be lonely. Although Adam and Eve have different personalities, they are originally one, and they live together by helping and depending on each other. As different personalities, Ichiwa and Rei have lived through such a difficult childhood helping each other. Even if their personalities are integrated and disappear from the table, the two (of course other personalities) coexist in their hearts, and since they have acquired the “alter ego of fate” called Hisashin, I think they will surely live a happy life from now on. I want many people to enjoy this exhilarating feeling after reading it.

オトナ版かと思うような、まさかのエロさ

It's so erotic that you think it's an adult version

いきなり誘拐犯とか出てくるし、2巻のあらすじに恋と愛と魂の救済の物語とか書いてあるから、ストーリーメインかと思っていたら、予想外にエロ満載で、エロのための設定とストーリーでした。それでも話としては破綻していなくて、多少浅く感じるものの面白かったです。ストーリーメインを期待して読むとビックリするかもしれません。自分はエロ好きなので、想定外でやや得した気分になりました

Suddenly, a kidnapper or something comes up, and the story of love, love, and salvation of souls is written in the synopsis of volume 2, so when I thought it was the main story, it was unexpectedly full of eroticism, and it was a setting and story for eroticism. Even so, it didn't go bankrupt as a story, and although it felt somewhat shallow, it was interesting. You might be surprised if you read it expecting the main story. I like erotica, so I felt like I gained a bit unexpectedly

2巻完結もったいないっ(泣)

Volume 2 completed is a waste (crying)

まだまだ膨らむ内容があるのに、終わってしまうのは大変勿体ないと思いました。食い足りないくらいがいいのかな。。とも思いますが、もう少し続きが読みたかったです。個人的にはこーちゃん&リアンのスピンオフを強く希望します。カバーイラストが素敵過ぎて、ジャケ買いしたのは内緒です。

There is still more content to expand, but I thought it would be very unfortunate for it to end. I wonder if it's good not to eat enough.. I think so, but I wanted to read a little more. Personally, I really hope for a Ko-chan & Rian spin-off. The cover illustration was so nice that I didn't know I bought the jacket.

This review contains spoilers. A coincidence with my childhood friend (inevitable?) They met, were swept away by the waves all at once from there, a furious personality came out, and they brought a bouquet of flowers to Algernon ever since. When I had a difficult childhood, salvation was reunited with Yuuma-kun and various personalities, then they were eliminated due to personality integration, but I also understand Yuma-kun's feelings! There were also characters I didn't want to disappear. The expression was wonderful and I enjoyed the process where my feelings were sublimated ♪

感動のヒューマンドラマ、泣いた！激推し！

The moving human drama made me cry! Highly recommended!

This review contains spoilers. 他の方のレビューにもいっぱいありましたが、BLとかジャンルを超えた感動のヒューマンドラマです。難しそうなテーマだけど、多重人格の特徴がわかりやすく、かつ対するユウマの反応、戸惑いとかも見応え満載に描かれてて、本当に面白い、面白すぎる。やはり、みちのくアタミ先生の腕は凄まじいです。人格達が出来た意味、消えてく意味、人格が消えて（統合されて）いく時の喪失感。それに加えて実はレイの中で生きているという感覚、感動しすぎて、泣きました。理性を司る人格の静かな佇まいは人間の心の奥深さを感じられるし、傷ついた心の代償として出来た人格たちは、はちゃめちゃだけど、憎めなくてなぜか共感できる。あっ、もちろんBL的良さも堪能できますよ。可愛い系、クール系、多重人格なだけに色んなタイプが出てきて、同一人物の中での別人格同士が恋敵となり、嫉妬や葛藤、そして修羅場から2人で3Pまで？2人？1人？の板挟みは、本当に見応え。そうそう、修正がですよ！めちゃ甘いんだわさーコレが。笑。大人版かと思った。シーンは少なめだけど濃密で、人格によって特徴があり、うわぁぁエロってなるわさっ。（意味不明ですまん、察しておくれ）最後は涙にぬせびながらも、納得、感動。文句なし！星10くらいはつけたい。新作、ななゆかばが出てるのに、ホント、今更ですみません。テーマの好みはあるもしれないけど、みちのくアタミ先生がお好きな方、ヒューマンドラマ好きな方に、激推し！

This review contains spoilers. There were lots of reviews from other people, but it's a moving human drama that transcends genres such as BL. It's a difficult theme, but the characteristics of multiple personalities are easy to understand, and Yuma's reactions and confusion are depicted in a spectacular manner, and it's really interesting, too interesting. After all, Michinoku Atami sensei's skills are amazing. The meaning of personalities being formed, the meaning of disappearing, a sense of loss when personalities disappear (are integrated). In addition to that, I was so moved by the feeling that I was actually living inside Rey, and I cried. The quiet appearance of the personality that controls reason makes me feel the depth of the human heart, and the personalities created as compensation for a broken heart are a mess, but I can sympathize with them for some reason because I can't hate them. Oh, of course, you can also enjoy the BL goodness. Various types have come out just because they are cute, cool, and have multiple personalities, and different personalities within the same person become romantic enemies, jealousy, conflict, and from shambles to a threesome with 2 people? 2 people? 1 person? The sandwich is really impressive. Oh yeah, there's a fix! this is so sweet, huh. lol. I thought it was an adult version. The scenes are few but intense, and there are characteristics depending on the personality, and it's wow erotic. (Sorry, guess the meaning is unclear) At the end, I was convinced and moved, even though I was in tears. No complaints! I want to give it about 10 stars. A new product, Nanayukaba, is out, but I'm really sorry for the fact that it's over now. You may like the theme, but I highly recommend it to those who like Michinoku Atami sensei and those who like human dramas!

1人の人間からの総受け！

All received from 1 person!

まず初めに言いたいことを言わせていただきますと、光太郎&リアンのスピンオフを切望しております！！どうかよろしくお願いします！！少ない登場人物でも、人格の変化で性格の違いを楽しむことが出来ました。取り合いしたり、人格ごとに主人公への想いが違うのが見ていて楽しいです。そして肝心の最中のシーンも最高です！圧倒的画力によって、描き込みまで楽しめました。続いてくれると嬉しいです。

First of all, let me say that I'm looking forward to the Kotaro & Rian spin-off!! Thank you so much for your support!! Even with few characters, I was able to enjoy the differences in personality due to changes in personality. It's fun to fight and watch how each personality has different feelings for the protagonist. And the essential scene in the middle is awesome too! I was able to enjoy drawing because of the overwhelming drawing power. I would be happy if you continue.

I was very interested and bought it, but it was very good. It was a human drama that went beyond BL. Multiple personalities are seen in dramas and novels, but aren't they rare in BL? It seems like it's going to be shallow, but as expected, Michinoku Atami sensei. The story structure, character design, and beauty of the pictures were all in place. and happy miscalculation (?) However, the correction was extremely sweet. It was awesome. thank you so much!!

This review contains spoilers. 多重人格という難しいテーマのお話ですが人格をレイとカズハに絞っているので、間延びせず読みやすかったです。だからといって内容が薄くもならず２冊で満足できる作品です。攻めの多重人格はサブ人格も含めて描き分けが絶妙なでみんな違う人に見えるけどちゃんと同一人物にも見えるというなんとも不思議な感じでした。悠真が全員好きだったという言葉にも共感できます。レイとカズハと攻めが二人もいるのでエ○いシーンもたっぷりあります。最後はえ？3人でしてるの？と思えるほど濃厚な場面もあります。修正も甘いです。

This review contains spoilers. It's a story about the difficult theme of multiple personalities, but since the personalities are narrowed down to Rei and Kazuha, it was easy to read without delay. That doesn't mean the content is thin, and I'm satisfied with 2 books. The aggressive multiple personalities, including the sub-personalities, are so well drawn that it was a strange feeling that they all looked like different people, but they all looked like the same person. I can also sympathize with the statement that Yuma liked everyone. There are also two attackers, Rei and Kazuha, so there are plenty of hot scenes. last huh? Are you doing it with 3 people? There are also scenes that are so intense that you might think. The correction is also sweet.
