  友達のような二人
  Two people who are like friends
  ヒーローとヒロインの真面目な場面ばかりではなく、友達のようなやり取りが微笑ましい場面がいくつかあって楽しめました❣️

  Not only were there serious scenes between the hero and heroine, but there were also a few scenes where the friend-like interactions made me smile, so I enjoyed it ❣️

  少しだけ手に入れる方が全てを望むよりも楽
  Getting just a little is easier than hoping for everything
  ヒロインが彼にその気になって貰おうと奮闘するところに応援気分で読ませ、彼がヒロインへの好意を全開に出来ないところにヤキモキさせ、物語のテンポはなかなか。それぞれの家の事情も巧みに差し込まれ無理がなく、ハプニングも取って付けた唐突感がないのがよい。ルークの優男ぶり、幼馴染のヒロインとして間近で複雑な思いを抱えてきた経過にヒロイン視点は共感しやすい。しかし、ルーク視点での辛さ苦しさ、それゆえの女性遍歴に胸が痛くなってくる。こちらの要素、ストーリー中に結構持ってかれるだけに、ヒロインの成就もいいが、彼の方もカタルシスよろしくだったかなぁ、ちょっと置いてけぼり感あったかなぁと、そこだけ、アレ？、という気がした。

  I read it with a feeling of support when the heroine struggles to get him to feel like it, and it makes me feel excited that he can't fully develop his favor for the heroine, and the tempo of the story is quite good. It's nice that the circumstances of each house are cleverly inserted, so it's not unreasonable, and there's no sense of abruptness when things happen. The heroine's point of view is easy to sympathize with Luke's excellent son and the progress of having complicated feelings up close as a childhood friend. However, my heart aches because of the pain and suffering from Luke's point of view, the history of women. Since these elements are brought in quite a bit during the story, the heroine's accomplishments are also good, but I wonder if he was also good at catharsis, and there was a slight sense of being left behind; that's all, is that all? I felt like that.

  シリーズ2作目
  Second film in the series
  This review contains spoilers. この作家さんは初めてだったのですが1作目に続き、2作目も満足しました。3作目も楽しみです。お互いにというか、ヒーローが自分の本当の気持ちに向き合うことをしてこなかったから、こうなったのかと思いましたが、彼の生まれ育った環境を見るとそうなってしまうのかなとは思いました。

  This review contains spoilers. This was my first time working by this artist, but I was satisfied with the second one, following the first one. I'm also looking forward to the 3rd one. I thought this might have happened because each other, or rather the heroes, hadn't faced their true feelings, but when I looked at the environment where he was born and raised, I thought that would happen.
