  まあ 幸せなら良いがね by 国王
  Well, it would be nice if you were happy by King
  うん、いいね！と納得できる物語でした。ヒーローセスは、ひたすらに我が息子のこれから育っていくその過程に思いを馳せて、それは、ヒロインルーシーの王宮での暮らしを、彼女の話をキチンと聞いて理解していたことの裏付けでもあって、ただそのためだけに行動した。感動します、その行為に。けれど、肝心のルーシーへの気持ちには、二の足を踏むという愚かしさ。でもその心情が良く伝わります。また、ルーシーも自分の立場を考えると 譲ることのできる部分と、譲れない部分との鬩ぎあいに心を痛めて、彼の下に馳せ参じるのが臨月となってしまうほどに苦悩していたのだと察せられ、作画にはありませんでしたが、マイアミに戻ってきていたことを鑑みれば、彼を訪ねる為に自分を奮い立たせる勇気を持つまでの時間が感じられて、苦しかっただろうなと泣けてきました。お互いが「裏切られた」「捨てられた」と思考を巡り、再開直後に出産という展開が、説明いらずの絶好のチャンスという進行となっていてこちらもうならせる。その後は、子供の未来を考えるのと同時進行で、ルーシーには、王女 という暮らしから セスの妻という暮らしへの順応具合や理解を可愛らしく、そして優秀さも見せて、またセスには、思惑があったとはいえ父親として誠実さも、子煩悩さも見せて 夫婦お手本のようでウットリと読みました。ただ、国王が提示した契約書の為に ルーシーも息子も去っていく場面のセスの表情（P93～P98にかけて）からは 強固な意志も 怯む決意も、後悔も読み取ることが出来ず残念に思います。もっと間違えたのではないのか という苦悩を色濃く見せてほしかった。

  Yep, great! It was a convincing story. Hero Seth thought earnestly about the process of my son growing up from now on, and it was also proof that she understood the heroine Lucy's life in the royal palace when she heard her talk so hard, and she acted just for that. I'm moved by that act. However, the essential feeling for Lucy is the foolishness of stepping back on one's feet. But that feeling is conveyed very well. Also, when Lucy thought about her position, she was heartbroken by the conflict between the part she could give up and the part she couldn't give up, and I was able to guess that she was so distressed that going under him became a surrender, and it wasn't in the drawing, but considering that she had come back to Miami, I felt the time until she had the courage to inspire myself to visit him, and it made me cry that it must have been painful. They both thought they were “betrayed” and “abandoned,” and the development of giving birth right after resuming progressed as a perfect opportunity without the need for an explanation, and this is all over again. After that, it progressed at the same time as thinking about the child's future, and she showed Lucy how cute and excellent she adapted and understood from her life as a princess to the life of Seth's wife, and she also showed her sincerity as a father and child worries even though there were speculations, and I read it bluntly as a role model for a married couple. However, I feel sorry that I cannot read the strong will, frightened determination, or regret from Seth's expression (P93 to P98) in the scene where Lucy and her son leave because of the contract presented by the king. I wanted them to show more of their anguish that they might have made a mistake.
