  冴えないオヤジじゃなかった！
  He wasn't a dull old man!
  This review contains spoilers. タイトルからちょっとコメディーっぽい感じかなと思ったけど・・・途中から胸が苦しくなりました。遥は寂しさを埋めるためだったんだろうけどあの先輩はマジでクズ。家に押し掛けて来た時はマンガなのに本気で怒りがわきました。てっきり関根さんが止めてくれると思ったけど・・・ああするしかなかったのかな。それでも最後には2人が結ばれて良かったです。書き下ろしであのクソ先輩に制裁が加えられたのかなという描写があったので少し救われました。

  This review contains spoilers. I thought it was a bit comedic from the title, but... my heart ached from the middle. Haruka was probably to fill her loneliness, but that senior is seriously scum. When I rushed over to my house, I was seriously angry even though it was a manga. I definitely thought Mr. Sekine would stop him, but... I wonder if I had no choice but to do that. Still, I'm glad the two were able to tie the knot at the end. It was written down and there was a depiction that sanctions were applied to that damn senpai, so I was saved a bit.

  オッサン最高すぎるわ～( *´艸)
  The old man is too awesome ~ (*')
  スッゴい良作ではないですか！？私この作品、好きだわ～♪遥くんのどうしようもない寂しさや哀しさが胸に刺さる。せつないな～(>ω<。)小説家の冴えないオッサンが実は…は王道ですが、オッサンの誠実で真っ直ぐな言動には惚れるでしょう！しかもエロは上級者(笑)いや、もうね、最高しかないですね♪繰り返し読みたくなる作品です！

  Isn't it a really good work!? I love this work ~ ♪ Haruka's helpless loneliness and sorrow stuck in my heart. That's annoying ~ (>ω<.) The novelist's dull old man... is actually king, but you'll fall in love with the old man's sincere and straightforward words and actions! What's more, erotica is advanced (laughs) No, there are only the best ones ♪ It's a work you'll want to read over and over again!
