  クレンショー兄弟の三男
  The third son of the Crenshaw Brothers
  This review contains spoilers. 長男ジェイク＆アシュリーの「あどけない恋心」、次男ジャレッド＆リンジーの「仕組まれた一夜」、三男ジュード＆カライナの今作、四男ジェイソン＆レスリーの「強引な結婚」、っていう四兄弟ものの一部。個人的に一番いい男だと思うのはジャレッドだけど、ジュードも良かった。このシリーズ面白いんだけど、作画担当者さんたちに連携がなくて他作品に出てる四兄弟＆パートナーたちの見た目がけっこう違いますよね。髪の長さはともかく色も違うし、「強引な結婚」に出てくるジュードは糸目だしね。今作に出てくるジャレッド（？）は黒髪短髪だしリンジー（？）は金髪っぽいウェーブに見えるけど、実際はジャレッドはふわふわウェーブの金髪だしリンジーは黒髪ストレート。髪型変えたの？染めたのかな？と思ったりしてそれはそれで楽しいのでオッケーですがｗｗ

  This review contains spoilers. It is part of the four brothers: “Innocent Love” by the eldest son Jake & Ashley, “One Night Made Up” by the second son Jared & Lindsey, this work by the third son Jude & Karina, and the fourth son Jason & Leslie's “Forceful Marriage.” I personally think Jared is the nicest guy, but Jude was nice too. This series is interesting, but the appearance of the four brothers and partners who appear in other works is pretty different because the people in charge of drawing don't cooperate. Regardless of the length of the hair, the color is different, and Jude from “Forceful Marriage” is a thread, isn't it? Jared (?) appearing in this film Does have short black hair Lindsey (?) It looks like blond waves, but in reality, Jared has fluffy wavy blonde hair, and Lindsey has straight black hair. Have you changed your hairstyle? I wonder if it was dyed? I thought that was fun, so it's OK lol lol

  仮想独身貴族の策略
  The virtual celibate aristocrat's ploy
  ヒーロージュードとヒロインカライナとの関係は、密輸犯罪逮捕まで王手をかけられた状態からのスタートだ。甘い関係を重視するなら、物語は捜査官から愛しい女性の家族に事の真相を伝えて 密輸を止めるべく諭し、止めさせ、両岸の人々に安寧をもたらしハピエンへとの順路となるだろうが、この物語は違う。もう疑いという域は越えて 逮捕へ秒読み段階に入っているのだ。そんな中で捜査官ジュードは容疑者の妹カライナを共犯の容疑で捜査するべく近づいたが、本意に反れて恋におちてしまう。しかし、物語は周到で、彼女が共犯ではないらしいとほぼ確定段階まではその想いに加速感は無く、むしろ捜査官としてのモラルが感じられるほどに職務に徹している感がある。そしてそれを感じ取った時、彼女の家族への影響と彼女の立ち位置と、自分の立場に悩み始めるのだ。展開は犯罪のそれを追求していくことよりも、２人の愛の行く先に思いを馳せ、それぞれの家族との関係性を重視した作りで、犯罪が及ぼす波及効果を 終わってしまう家族、生まれる家族を対比にして上手く作り出していると思う。カライナにとっては、16、14年と離れた兄達の行動を 想像すらしなかったと思う。守られているというよりは、隔絶とも隔離ともされている。ここには、金を稼ぐ家長があって、女は家庭の事を考えていれば良い的な背景まで見え隠れする。真実を愛する男性から語られた彼女は青天の霹靂だったと思う。その絶望は、以前婚約者を亡くしたショックをも超えるものとして彼女を打ちのめす。が、しかし彼への思慕も同じように募っていく彼女の悲しみや苦悩が十分に伝わる。犯罪を犯したからといって、絶望の淵にいる家族をしり目に自分だけ愛する男性の下へ行くことには罪悪を感じているカライナに父が言う「親は子供の幸せを１番に考えるものだ」けれど、それは子供にも言えることで「自分の幸せも大事だけれど家族の幸せも大事」。犯罪を取り締まり若しくは断罪する側の人間と犯罪者またはその身内との幸せはあり得るかという恒久的な問題に１つの答えが導かれている。これには賛否両論あるであろうが、そういうＨＱが出来上がっていた。

  The relationship between hero Jude and heroine Kalina started from a state where they were dominated until the arrest of a smuggling crime. If sweet relationships were to be emphasized, the story would tell the truth of the incident from the investigator to the beloved woman's family, admonish them to stop smuggling, bring peace to people on both sides of the Strait, and be a route to Happien, but this story is different. They have already crossed the realm of doubt and are in the countdown stage to arrest. Under such circumstances, Investigator Jude came close to investigating the suspect's younger sister Karina on suspicion of complicity, but she fell in love against her true intentions. However, the story is thorough, and when she doesn't seem to be an accomplice, there is no sense of acceleration in her feelings until the stage of almost confirmation, and rather, there is a feeling that she is devoting herself to her duties to the point where her morals as an investigator can be felt. Then, when she sensed it, she began to worry about her influence on her family, her position, and her own position. Rather than pursuing the crime, the development is based on thinking about the destination of love between the two, and emphasizes the relationship between each family, and I think it was successfully created by contrasting families where the ripple effects of crime end and families that are born. I don't think Karina even imagined the actions of her older brothers who were 16 or 14 years apart. Rather than being protected, they are being isolated and quarantined. Here, there is a parent who earns money, and women can even hide a background that is good if they think about the family. Told by a man who loves the truth, I think she was a burst of blue. That hopelessness overwhelms her as something beyond the shock of losing her previous fiancé. However, her sorrow and anguish, as her admiration for him is also raised in the same way, is fully conveyed. Her father says “parents think the happiness of their children first” to Carina, who feels guilty about secretly going under a man they love only by looking at a family on the edge of despair just because they have committed a crime, but it can also be said to children, “My happiness is important, but so is my family's happiness.” One answer has led to the permanent question of whether happiness between a person on the side that controls or condemns a crime and the offender or their relatives is possible. There may be pros and cons to this, but that kind of HQ was completed.

  台詞回しが素晴らしい
  The rotation of the lines is wonderful
  This review contains spoilers. アメリカンジョーク満載の小気味の良い会話が絵の綺麗さにとてもよくあっていました。ヒーローとヒロインの魅力がよく伝わってきます。

  This review contains spoilers. The creepy conversation full of American jokes matched the beauty of the picture very well. The appeal of the hero and heroine is well conveyed.
