  スピンオフ、いい！
  Spin-off, good!
  This review contains spoilers. スピンオフというより続編と言ってもいい。主人公のフォーカスが変わっただけだと思える。また泣いた（笑）しょーじくんの父親たちの話。20年、離れていた。離れた方がいいと思っていた。思いは閉じ込めて。駄菓子屋のかじぃ（父親）が倒れたことで再び時間が動き出す。はまさんに感謝してよー花雄さんの気持ちに移入すると、居た堪れなく切なく苦しい。なんせ、相手が空気ブレイカーのしょーちゃんパパだからね（笑）こんな風に、心を閉じ込めて、他の方法もわからず、仕事に邁進している人は、きっと多くいるのではないかと感じる。救命の先生しかり、しょーちゃんしかり、若い人にはわからない時代を生きてきた。寛容でない時代の「普通」を、自身も合わせていくことが正しいと思ってしまったのだろう。花雄さんが「欲して欲しかった」と言ったとき、胸が締め付けられたね。でも、しょーちゃんパパもちゃんと掴んでよかった。50代だって、普通にエチできるよ（笑）して、はまさんの真面目さ。麗しい。幸せそうでよかった。エチは事後描写のみ。素敵な作品だ。管部先生の考え方、好きだ。

  This review contains spoilers. You could call it a sequel rather than a spin-off. I think the main character's focus just changed. I cried again (laughs) It's a story about Shoji-kun's fathers. We've been away for 20 years. I thought it would be better to stay away. Lock in your thoughts. Time starts moving again when Kajii (father) from the dagashi store has fallen down. I'm grateful to Hama-san, and when I get into Hanao's feelings, it's unbearable, sad, and painful. After all, it's because my opponent is Sho-chan's dad who is an air breaker (laughs) I feel that there are surely many people who lock their hearts in like this, don't know any other method, and push forward with their work. We have lived in an age where young people don't understand only life saving teachers and Sho-chan. They probably thought it was right for them to adjust to the “normal” of the intolerant era. My heart was tightened when Hanao said, “I wanted you to want it.” But I'm glad Sho-chan's dad grabbed it properly too. Even if you're in your 50s, you can cheat normally (laughs), and Hama-san is serious. beautiful. I'm glad they seem happy. Eti is only described after the fact. It's a wonderful work. I like Kanbu sensei's way of thinking.

  受けの気持ちの描写が繊細ですごく切ない
  The depiction of the feeling of acceptance is so delicate that it's very sad
  This review contains spoilers. あーもう初っ端から胸が痛い…正児の恋の芽生えについては前作でもちょっと触れていましたが、こんなに胸が痛いシーンになるとは。恋の自覚が苦しいなんて悲しいです開始直後からずっと切なくて、この時点でこんなじゃ私最後まで読めるかな…と何度もページを確認しました2人で育児していたある意味蜜月だった期間は悲しい別れとともに終わり時は現在へと移りますが、現在になっても全然2人はスムーズにくっつくとかしなくて、やっぱり何度もページ数を確認しては「これちゃんとこの巻でくっつくのかな…」と心配になりました（私は面白い本ほどページ数を確認します）でもこの二人の今までの関係とか選んできたものとかを考えると、すんなり好き同士、ラブラブ！ってなるわけないし、くっつかないことが一番近くにいられる方法だって受けが確信しちゃってるからなぁまさかのBLでお友達以上恋人未満エンド来るのか?とか結構本気で思いましたこの2人ならそれもありかもと思ったし、作者様ならそういうラストだとしても切なく描いてくれると思ったので、それでもいいかなとも思いつつ読み進め…いやー、怒涛のラストでくっつきましたでも攻めの気持ちの変化がよくわからなかったので置いてかれた感はあります攻めは受けのこと恋愛的に好きになったってことでいいの？攻めも受けにほんのり恋心を持ったかもしれないけど、でもまだ受けが向けてくるようなものとは違うんじゃないかなそう思うと、『たったし→やって→一緒に生きてこうぜ』はちと性急だったなと思いますとはいえ。上にも書きましたが、序盤からずっと切なくて、1ページ進めるごとに胸が締め付けられてなかなか先に進められないというのは間違いなくなかなかできない体験でした出来ればこのあとの2人も見てみたいな多分いつもの感じで楽しく明るく幸せに過ごしていることと思いますが、攻めから受けに向ける眼差しとかそういうもので受けが愛されてるのを目の当たりにしたい本作、勿論ハッピーエンドなんだけど、個人的にはもっともっと受けにとってのハッピーエンドを追求してもよかったなーと思いますあとやっぱり、初夜は付き合ってだいぶ経ってからとかでもよかったかな（攻めが受けのこと触れたくて触れたくてたまらんってくらい好きになって満を持して…的な感じで）という気持ちがどうも消せない

  This review contains spoilers. Oh, my heart hurts from the beginning... I mentioned a little bit about Seiji no Koi no Ki no Ki no Seizei in the previous film, but I had no idea it would be such a heart-wrenching scene. It's sad how painful it is to be aware of love. I've been sad ever since it started, and I checked the page many times, wondering if I could read it until the end at this point. The period when it was a honeymoon in a sense when two people were raising children ended up with a sad break up, but even now, the 2 didn't stick together smoothly at all, and after all, I checked the number of pages over and over again, I was worried, “I wonder if this will stick properly in this volume...” (I'm funny (I'll check the number of pages in the book) But when I think about the relationship between these two people up until now and what they've chosen, they love each other easily! There's no way it's going to happen, and I'm convinced that not sticking together is the way to stay the closest, so why is it going to end up more than friends but less than lovers in BL? I seriously thought that might be possible if these two people were there, and I thought the author would painfully draw it even if it was that kind of last, so I read on while wondering if that was fine... well, they stuck together at the end of the furious, but I didn't really understand the change in attack feelings, so there's a feeling that they were left behind. Is it OK for them to take the attack and fall in love romantically? I may have had a slight crush on the attack, but when I think that it's different from something that is still directed at the reception, I think “just do it → let's live together” was rather hasty. As I wrote above, I've been sad ever since the beginning, and my heart is tightened every time I advance one page, and it's definitely a difficult experience. If possible, I'd like to take a look at the 2 people after this, and I think they're probably having a fun, bright, and happy time as usual, but I want to witness how reception is loved by looking at reception from attack or something like that, of course, it has a happy ending, but personally I think it would have been nice to pursue a happy ending for the reception even more. After all, I can't get rid of the feeling that the first night was okay if it had been a long time since we were in a relationship (the attack fell in love so much that I wanted to touch it and was full...)

  せつない
  It's annoying
  「ダーティダーリン」がとても良かったので購入しました。本作は正児の親達のお話。正児の子どもの頃の描写も花雄の恋心も全てせつなかった。前作も本作もせつなさの中の優しさが身に沁みる、心に残るお話でした。

  “Dirty Darling” was so good that I bought it. This work is about Masaji's parents. The depiction of Masaji as a child and Hanao's love affair were all difficult. It was a memorable story where the gentleness between the previous work and this work sank into my body.
