  懐かしい
  nostalgic
  このお話、続編（というか、その後の二人のお話）も含めて同人誌で持ってます。商業化されてたんですねビックリ。もうずっとコミケとか行けてなくて、続編がどこまで出てるのかわからなくて、気になっていた作品の一つです。できたら続編(FELLOW)も商業化して欲しいなぁ……

  I have this story in doujinshi, including the sequel (or rather, the story of the two people that followed). I was surprised that it was commercialized. I haven't been able to go to Comiket for a long time, and I don't know how far the sequels are coming out, so it's one of the works I was interested in. If possible, I would like the sequel (FELLOVE) to be commercialized too...

  読み返す度 止まらない好き
  I like it that won't stop every time I read it over
  懐かしい？絵柄なのでしょうか でも 決して古いとかゆうお話ではありませんでした。今の日本では戦場カメラマンという職に就かれてる方は多いとは言えないですが慮って 読み進めていくと 沼にはまってしまいます。逃げることのできない お話に引き込まれて行きました。計り知れない傷を抱えた人が 少しずつ 心を開いていく過程が とても上手く表現されていて 何度も何度も 読み返している作品。まだ若い二人、楽しい日が一日でも多く続きますように・・・・。コミックなのに、余韻が残るとっても素敵な作品でした。

  nostalgic? I wonder if it's a pattern, but it definitely wasn't an old story. I can't say that there are many people in Japan today who work as battlefield cameramen, but if you keep reading, you'll get stuck in the swamp. I was drawn into a story about which I couldn't escape. The process by which people with immeasurable wounds open their hearts little by little is very well expressed, and it is a work that has been reread over and over again. I hope the two are still young and have as many fun days as possible... Even though it was a comic, it was a wonderful work that left a lingering afterglow.

  これぞプロフェッショナル
  This is professional
  最近のBLが身近な舞台でわちゃわちゃやってるのが殆どなせいか、たまにこういうスケールの大きい話を読むと感動します。ハイクラスのモデルと心身が傷ついたカメラマンの話、と決して珍しいあらすじではないのですが、実力のある作家さんが描くとここまで深みのあるものになる、という良い例だと思います。個人的には、ヒロの日本での過去やエルの出自と経験なども、セリフでなくエピソードで描いてほしかったな、というのがあります。でも、それを置いても非常によく練られた秀作です。

  I'm moved when I read this kind of large-scale story once in a while, probably because BL these days are almost always on a familiar stage. It's definitely not an unusual synopsis about the story of a high-class model and a photographer who was hurt both mentally and physically, but I think it's a good example of how it becomes so deep when drawn by a talented artist. Personally, I wanted Hiro's past in Japan and Elle's origins and experiences to be depicted in episodes rather than lines. But even with that in place, it's an excellent work that was very well thought out.
