  最高！
  the best!
  久しぶりに心から「読んでよかった」と感じた作品です。感動あり、興奮あり、そして優しさにあふれた物語で、王道ファンタジーが好きな人にはぜひ一度手に取ってほしい、忘れられない一冊でした！

  It's been a long time since I really felt “I'm glad I read it.” It's a story full of emotion, excitement, and kindness, and I definitely want people who like classic fantasy to pick it up, and it was an unforgettable book!

  物語のような、物語
  Like a story, a story
  登場人物が全員良い人、主人公はとりわけ底なしに良い奴です。元祖ファンタジーのような世界観でお話で、綺麗事上等の英雄譚。余計なことを考えずに読めるというか、裏表のない世界で読むと心がすっきりします。美しい王道に触れたいときは是非。

  All of the characters are good people, and the main character is a particularly bottomlessly good guy. It's a story with a worldview like the original fantasy, and it's a heroic story superior to pretty things. You can read it without thinking about unnecessary things, or rather, it clears your mind when you read it in a world where there are no two sides. If you want to experience the beautiful royal road, don't miss it.

  英雄譚　死生観のある本格派ファンタジー
  Heroic Tales: An authentic fantasy with a view of life and death
  This review contains spoilers. 世界観の見せ方や主人公の家族の登場のさせ方が巧みで、第一話から引き込まれました。序盤、中山星華の『妖精国の騎士』みがあるなーと思っていたら、トールキンの『指輪物語』の世界観でした。そして、『ホビットの冒険』そのままやんという箇所も。けれども、トールキンの世界と日本ならではの単純な善悪ではない世界観を融合した上で、異世界転生を死生観に昇華させた、読み応えのある素晴らしい作品になっている。そこには作画担当の力量に依るものも大きいんだろうと思います。武勇だけじゃない誠実な英雄譚。ウィルの感情の発露やドラマは読んでて胸がきゅうきゅうしました。最初の友、メネルとのエピソードはどれも好きです。　「なんで隣に立ってくれないんだよ…!!」とか。絵と子供っぽいセリフに、ウィルの孤独や追い詰められた心が表現されていて良かった。それに対するメネルの返答も胸熱でした。戦闘シーンも勿論good。邪竜戦最高大好き。不満を一つだけ言うならば、手の火傷あとをちゃんと描いてほしかったな。手のアップの時だけでも。トーンだけだと手がきれいに見えるので、傷痕エピがエモいだけに残念。全体的に面白かったし、最後まで追いたい。原作も読みたくなりました。

  This review contains spoilers. The way the worldview was shown and the way the main character's family appeared were clever, and I was drawn in from the first episode. At the beginning, when I thought there was only “Knights in Fairy Land” by Seika Nakayama, it was Tolkien's world view of “Lord of the Rings.” Also, there is a part where “The Hobbit” is left as it is. However, after fusing Tolkien's world with a worldview that is not simple right and wrong unique to Japan, it is a wonderful work that is worth reading, sublimating Isekai Reincarnation into a view of life and death. I think there is also a lot that depends on the ability of the person in charge of drawing. It's not just about bravery, but a sincere heroic tale. I was thrilled to read Will's emotional expressions and dramas. I love every episode with my first friend, Mennell. “Why won't you stand next to me...!!” or something. I'm glad Will's loneliness and cornered heart were expressed in the pictures and childish lines. Menel's response to that was also heartwarming. Of course, the battle scenes are good too. I love Evil Dragon Warfare the best. If I had to say just one complaint, I would have liked you to have drawn a proper picture of the burn on your hand. Even if it's just when your hands are up. If it's just the tone, my hands look beautiful, so it's a pity that the scar epi is just so emo. Overall, it was fun and I want to keep up to the end. It made me want to read the original story too.
