    好きな言葉に出会えて嬉しい
    This review contains spoilers. 「恋は遠くで降る雨。」なんていい表現だろう。何度でもそのシーンを探して読み返しています。読む度に沁みて、なんでこんな言葉を思いつくんだろうと、言葉で作り出してくれてありがとうございます。

    切なくて、一生懸命で、愛おしい。。
    全4巻、全て表題作b。500年の営みでドハマリし、以来作者さまファンで、どれ読んでもギュンギュンします。。ぶっちゃけ、レビュータイトルはどの作品にも当てはまる!ずいぶん前に読んで、久々に再読。やっぱり、ガッツリ、心が奪われます。。ダメ親父のもと、一生懸命生きる主人公。富豪の坊っちゃんの身代わりで男装。異世界のような生活の中、バレないよう、付き人のような遼な支え。そんな中で見えてくるそれぞれの立ち位置と心情が丁寧で、ぐいぐい惹き込まれます。。読み終えた後には心にぽっかり穴が空いてしまうように、しばらく残ります。。ラストのちょい未来の場面が、読み手には嬉しい幸せです!

    健気で負けないの主人公がすき!
    This review contains spoilers. 貧乏な境遇にも愛のない毎日にも負けず、頑張る主人公の敦子がかなりの好感度高め!!まわりにクズが多い中、不屈の精神で生き抜いている。甘ったれで、みんなの愛を一身に受ける至にはなかなか共感できないけれど、それぞれが各々の立場で問題を抱えている。人生において何が大切か、何によって人は強くなれるのか、色々と考えさせてくれる作品でした。

The Day Destiny Changed
The protagonist, a high school girl, lives in a run-down house with her father, a drunkard. While resigning herself to her unfortunate situation, she tries to make her daily earnings with her father. One day, she meets three wealthy boys and is taken into their palace. One of them realizes that she and one of the boys look exactly alike, and he takes her place... What awaits her after she becomes a "prince" and her life is turned upside down? This is a very unique Shojo manga, good for anyone trying to stick to Shojo while keeping things fresh. The environment surrounding the main characters and their depressed feelings are carefully depicted, and worth a lot of appreciation.
