  素敵なんだけど、暗い
  It's nice, but it's dark
  This review contains spoilers. 1967年のイタリア？の設定で、ヒストリカルと言うほど古くないですが、バレエ団が舞台なので、大人な感じのHQかと期待していました。私は割りと好きな設定なのですが、一言で言うなら全体的に暗いです。作者さんの絵はきれいですし、作品の世界観にも合っていると思いますが、ヒーローもヒロインもほぼ終盤まで笑顔のシーンがありません。なので、ヒロインが厳しい態度のヒーローに終始怯えているようにみえ、バレエ団のトップダンサーの彼との方が心を開いているようなのに、最後はHQの鉄則の結末に。 好みが分かれる作品かも。

  This review contains spoilers. Italy in 1967? The setting isn't old enough to be called historical, but since it's set in a ballet company, I was expecting it to be an adult HQ. I like the setting quite a bit, but in a nutshell, it's dark overall. The artist's paintings are beautiful, and I think they fit the world view of the work, but there are almost no scenes where the hero or heroine smile until the end. So, it seems like the heroine is frightened from beginning to end by the hero with a strict attitude, and even though she and he, the top dancer in the ballet company, seem to be opening up, at the end of HQ's cardinal rule. Maybe it's a work where people have different tastes.
