  作品を読んで、私も救われた
  Reading the work saved me too
  This review contains spoilers. ymz先生の作品はどれも大好きです。この作品の中で、唯が主人公に救われていく過程がとても丁寧に描かれていて、私自身の過去も重ねながら読むうちに、救われていく気がしました。人の弱さは強さにもなる。そのことを素晴らしい筆力で描かれた作品。日々、弱い者がとりこぼされていくこの社会の中で、共振することしかできず、自分を責めたことのある経験がある人ほど、深く読むことができる唯一無二の作品かと思います。ymz先生のオリジナル作品にまた出会う日を心待ちにしています?

  This review contains spoilers. I love all of Mr. YMZ's works. In this work, the process of Yui being saved by the main character was depicted very carefully, and I felt that I would be saved as I read it while repeating my own past. A person's weakness also becomes strength. This work depicts that with great brushwork. In this society where weak people are being overlooked every day, I think it is a unique work that can only resonate, and people who have experienced blaming themselves can read it more deeply. Are you looking forward to seeing YMZ sensei's original work again?

  心の穴を埋め合う感じ
  The feeling of filling a hole in my heart
  作家買いです。攻めの斬新な趣味に心掴まれました！出会いは偶然だったけど、お互いに心の穴を埋め合うような存在になっていくのが良い。プラトニックな心の交流が素敵です。それから、ymz先生の作品全般に言えることですが、サブキャラが良い味出してます。しっとりだけど程よくライトな、絶妙な読み味でした。

  I'm buying an artist. I was fascinated by this novel offensive hobby! The encounter was a coincidence, but it's good that they become people who fill the holes in each other's hearts. The platonic exchange of hearts is wonderful. Also, as can be said for YMZ sensei's works in general, the subcharacters have a good flavor. It was a perfect read, moist yet moderately light.

  何度も読み返す
  Reread it over and over
  This review contains spoilers. 作者様買いです。これですべて揃いました。なんでもっと早く読まなかったんだろう、ほんとに良作でした。大切なひとが亡くなるお話は、すごく引きずってしまうタイプなので、そこはほんと辛いです。唯に穴を空けて去って行った徳富くん。忘れないでねって言ってるみたいに。最期に唯に出会えた徳富くんは幸せだったのかな。ほんとにもう少し早く会っていたら、違っていたのかな。悲しいです。そして、徳富くんに似た十識と出会う唯。まるで過去の罪滅ぼしするかのように優しく寄り添う。十識もまた生い立ちに暗いものがあって。本当の自分を受け入れてくれる人を探し続けてきた彼は、やっと求めていたものを手に入れられたのかな。唯もまた十識に救われて。新たな一歩を踏み出せそうですね。タイトルもいいな。キー・リング・ロック。鍵とピアス、アイテムを巧みに使って深い深い物語に仕上げるymz先生はほんと凄いです。温かく優しいお話でした。

  This review contains spoilers. The author is buying it. Now we have it all. I wonder why I didn't read it sooner, it was a really good work. Stories about the death of an important person are the type that really drags on, so that's really painful. Tokutomi-kun made a hole and left. It's like I'm saying don't forget it. I wonder if Tokutomi-kun, who I met Yui at the end, was happy. If we had really met a little earlier, I wonder if it would have been different. It's sad. Then, Yui meets a decency similar to Tokutomi-kun. They gently snuggle up as if they were putting an end to past sins. There is also something dark about Jusshi's upbringing. Having continued to search for someone who would accept his true self, I wonder if he was finally able to get what he was looking for. Yui was also saved by Jussensu. It looks like we can take a new step. The title is nice too. key ring lock YMZ sensei, who skillfully uses keys, earrings, and items to create a deep, deep story, is really amazing. It was a warm and gentle story.
