  スクルージになれなかった最低なヒーロー父
  The worst hero father who couldn't be Scrooge
  HQはクリスマス物が多い。今作も題名にクリスマスはつかないものの私はクリスマスのお話だと思った。ヒロインは修道女見習いとはいうものの修道院に捨てられて成長した女性、自ら志願というより修道院長の言う通り選択肢がなかったからだ。ヒロインを「はしたない」と言い放ったこの修道院長、よくある意地悪さんかと思ったけれど後のエピで違うことが分かる。そりゃぁ気立ての良いヒロインの育ての親と言ってもよい人だ。Seacret Babyを出産したのに関わらず今では村の人たちも好意的なのは、この院長のヒロインに対する態度が影響しているのだろう。その院長が見たヒーローの６年で海運王だった父をしのぐ程の会社を立ち上げる力を持つポテンシャルがヒロインには危険と察知して遠ざけたのは「親ごごろ」と言っていいと思う。しかし、ヒロインの未来の可能性という選択肢が増えた時、背中を押したのも院長だった。教条に凝り固まっていない宗教者として信頼のおける方だと思う。ヒーローはヒロインという「過去」にSeacret Babyという「未来」を与えられ、ヒロインとSeacret Babyの愛という「現在」を手にいれる。ヒロインの女性としての成長と「クリスマス・キャロル」のようにヒーロ－が本来の姿に生まれ変わる物語。映画で見てみたいようなHQコミカライズでした。しかし、ヒーロー父にも救いの手(ぶくろ）があったんだけどなぁ～残念??

  HQ has a lot of Christmas stuff. Although Christmas isn't in the title of this work, I thought it was a Christmas story. This is because the heroine is a woman who is called a nun apprentice but grew up abandoned by a monastery, and as the abbot said, she had no options rather than volunteering herself. I thought this abbot, who called the heroine “bad,” was a common mean person, but I can see something different in later episodes. Well, they can be said to be the nurturing parents of a good-natured heroine. Even though she gave birth to Seacret Baby, the reason why people in the village are now also favorable is probably influenced by the director's attitude towards the heroine. I think it's safe to say that the hero that the director saw had the potential to set up a company that surpassed her father, who was the king of shipping in 6 years, sensed that the heroine was dangerous and kept away from her. However, when the number of options for the heroine's future possibilities increased, it was the director who pushed her back. I think he can be trusted as a religious person who is not entrenched in dogma. The hero is given a “future” called Seacret Baby by the “past” called the heroine, and they have the “present” of love between the heroine and Seacret Baby. A story about the heroine's growth as a woman and the hero, like “A Christmas Carol,” reincarnates into her original form. It was an HQ comicalization that I'd like to see in a movie. However, my hero father also had a helping hand (bag)... too bad??

  ハーレクインって…
  Harlequin is...
  This review contains spoilers. 作者買いです。いつも思うのだけれど、何故、登場人物たちはきちんと自分の思っていること、相手に伝えたいことを言わないのだろう？そうすれば、こんなにこじれずに済むのに…。って、これでなければハーレクインでは無くなってしまうのだけれども…(笑)。でも、今回の６年間放置はちょっと長過ぎるかな。連絡をしても話を通しても貰えずに門前払い…。これはキツいかな。唯一、ダンテが真っ当に成長してくれた事は救いだと思います。これも全てはセシリアの人間性の良さの賜物ですけどね。これからは家族みんなで幸せになって欲しいです。

  This review contains spoilers. I'm buying the author. I always think, but why don't the characters properly say what they think or what they want to convey to their partner? If you do that, it won't be so messy... I mean, if it weren't for this, it wouldn't be Harlequin... (laughs). But I wonder if 6 years of neglect this time will be a bit too long. Whether I contacted them or talked through them, they didn't get a prepayment... I wonder if this is tough. I think the only thing that Dante really grew up was a relief. This is all a result of Cecilia's good humanity, though. I want the whole family to be happy from now on.
