  飽きない
  I never get bored
  This review contains spoilers. 人生で初めて買い、10年以上追った数少ない漫画です。神器のみんなは死にたくて死んだわけじゃないというのが何年経っても胸に残っています。雪音やまゆさんの過去が辛くて何度も泣きました。最後はもう会わない選択になるかもと思いましたが、ひよりと夜トがまた出会えて嬉しかったです。小学生の頃に表紙に惹かれて買って良かったと思います。

  This review contains spoilers. This is one of the few comics I bought for the first time in my life and followed for over 10 years. The fact that not everyone in the sacred treasure died because they wanted to die still remains in my heart no matter how many years have passed. Yukine Yamayu's past was so painful that I cried over and over again. At the end, I thought they might choose not to meet again, but I was happy that Hiyori and Yoto met again. I'm glad I was attracted to the cover when I was in elementary school and bought it.

  最終巻まで読んで
  Read until the last volume
  This review contains spoilers. 昔アニメを見ていたのを今更読みました。最初は、重たすぎず読みやすいという印象だったのですが、中盤から恵比寿様の代替わりや雪音の過去など泣けるところもあってさらに引き込まれました。また、神様と神器はそんなに違わないと途中まで思っていたので、兆麻と毘沙門天の恋愛もありだと思ったのですが、人間として生きた過去がある人間と、願いに対して責任のある神では確かに違いがあって、それが神の秘め事や集まり、人を殺さないといけないときなどで垣間見えるところで、私的には、解釈的に違和感がなくストレスなく読めるところが良かったです。人間は現在の状況でなく過去が性格を形成していくし、神は願いから、性格が形成されるところで、1番大切にしたいものに対して大きな違いがあるのかなと感じます。だからこそ、過去より現在を大切に思った兆麻は、生き残れたのだと感じました。終わり方は、多少無理矢理ハッピーエンドになった感はありましたが、天照大神の思惑通りな感じですっきりできる終わり方でした。あとは、夜トがひよりが亡くなった後などに生きていけるのか、野良はどうなったかなどが気になります、、キャラとしては、恵比寿様が可愛かったです?

  This review contains spoilers. I used to watch anime, but now I'm reading more. At first, I had the impression that it wasn't too heavy and easy to read, but I was drawn even more in the middle because there were places where I could cry, such as Ebisu-sama's replacement and Yukine's past. Also, I thought that God and Sacred Treasures weren't that different, so I thought there was also a love affair between Choma and Bishamonten, but there is certainly a difference between people who have lived as humans and gods who are responsible for wishes, and it's a place where you can catch a glimpse of God's secrets, gatherings, and when people have to kill people, etc., and it was nice to be able to read it without any sense of interpretative incongruity and stress. Humans are shaped by the past rather than their current situation, and I feel that God is a place where personalities are formed from wishes, and there is a big difference in what they want to cherish the most. That's why I felt that Choma, who valued the present more than the past, was able to survive. There was a feeling that the ending was somewhat forced into a happy ending, but it was a refreshing way of ending that felt as expected by Amaterasu Omikami. Also, I'm wondering if Yoto will be able to live after Hiyori passed away, etc., and what happened to the wild... was Ebisu-sama cute as a character?

  最初は可愛い話だなって思ってたけど話が進んでいくとドキドキハラハラな展開でみんなにおすすめしたい作品でした！！アナザーストーリーがあればいいなーって思いました。

  At first, I thought it was a cute story, but as the story progressed, the development was exciting and I wanted to recommend it to everyone!! I thought it would be nice if there was another story.
