  暗いが、それが良い
  It's dark, but that's good
  This review contains spoilers. 短いお話ですがとっても好きです。歌姫に憧れてしまい、最終的には彼女のために手を汚すのも厭わない…究極の愛ですね！

  This review contains spoilers. It's a short story, but I really like it. I admired a diva, and in the end I'm willing to get my hands dirty for her... ultimate love!

  ハーレクインコミカライズで知った漫画家の青鹿毛さん！短編オリジナルですかね。ハーレクインコミカライズを1作1作積み重ねるうちに髭面男性を魅力的に描かれていました。今作は髭面に加え、一度見たら忘れない顔の男性を当たり前のように描いています。髭面男性を格好よく描くのはかなり難しいと思います。それにしても音が聞こえてくるような表現力が素晴らしい～ ヒロインの歌声に惹かれ影で応援しつつ、最後は彼女の為に…最近はこういった切ないストーリーは余り見られないかも。ヒントにした古い欧州系の童話とかありそう。あと私は青鹿毛さんの描く女性の立ち姿がとても好き?凛としてスッとしてステキなんだよなぁ?

  I know the manga artist Aokage from Harlequin Comicalize! An original short story, isn't it? As Harlequin Comicalize was piled up one by one, a man with a bearded face was depicted in an attractive way. In addition to the bearded face, this work depicts a man with a face he won't forget once he sees it as a matter of course. I think it's pretty difficult to draw a man with a beard in a cool way. Even so, the expressive power of being able to hear sounds is amazing ~ while being attracted to the heroine's singing voice and cheering with shadows, and finally for her... I may not be able to watch many sad stories like this these days. There seems to be an old European fairy tale or something that I used as a hint. Also, do I really like the standing figure of the woman drawn by Aokage? it's elegant, quick, and wonderful, isn't it?

  胸に隠された真実
  The truth hidden in my heart
  イラストで気になり 購入して……切ないけどなんだか 惹かれるお話でした。顔の傷で蔑まされ そんな彼と舞台を夢見て 日々努力し続ける彼女……アパートの上下の構図が たまらなく良いです。そして 彼女のために…彼のとった行動が 胸を打ちました。ハッピーエンドとかではないですが 短編で終わってしまうのが勿体ないよと 心打たれました。

  I was curious about the illustrations and bought it... it was a sad but somehow fascinating story. Despised by a scar on his face, she continues to work hard every day dreaming about the stage... the composition above and below the apartment is irresistibly good. And for her... his actions hit my heart. It's not a happy ending, but it struck me that it would be a shame to end up with a short story.
