  行き止まりの距離
  Dead-end distance
  This review contains spoilers. 1巻を読んで、親の都合で二人の距離が遠くなり離れたくなくても、まだ子供だからと何もできない歯痒さが切なくてずっと苦しかった。携帯がない時代で連絡手段としての手紙のやりとりにはキュンとしますねぇ…会いたい気持ちいっぱいの遠野に私は早く早くお願い！と焦る気持ちになり、二人の純愛にキュンとして涙が出ました。2巻を読んで、平行な距離のまま少しずつ大人になってゆく二人に、ん？何で？と段々イライラさせられた。でも遠野の態度や孤独感や後悔が辛くて、逆に明里の前向きな強さは爽快な気持ちになりました。作者が求める心の距離は複雑な気持ちにさせるし、心理描写が本当に凄い…遠距離の大変さをリアルに感じさせられました。

  This review contains spoilers. After reading volume 1, the distance between the two was so long due to the parents' convenience that they didn't want to be separated, it was painful all the time because they were still children, the itchiness of not being able to do anything was painful. In an age where there are no cell phones, I'm excited to exchange letters as a means of communication... I want to meet Tono, who is full of feelings I want to meet, please go quickly! I felt impatient, and I burst into tears as a result of their pure love. To the two who read volume 2 and gradually become adults while remaining at a parallel distance, huh? why? I was getting more and more frustrated. But Tono's attitude, loneliness, and regrets were painful, and conversely, Akari's positive strength made me feel exhilarating. The distance between hearts that the author is looking for made me feel complicated, and the psychological depiction is really amazing... it made me realistically feel the difficulties of long distance.

  切ないストーリー
  sad story
  This review contains spoilers. とにかく切ないシーンが多かったです。一番の見所が桜の花の話をしているヒロインがとても美しく、儚いので胸がギュッと締め付けられました。

  This review contains spoilers. Anyway, there were a lot of sad scenes. The main highlight is that the heroine talking about cherry blossoms is so beautiful and so ephemeral, my heart was tightened tightly.
