Ay gente, me olvidé de avisar acá que finalmente subí a mi journal el capítulo 45. Perdón por la demora. Pueden esperar el 46 antes de fin de mes porque ya lo empezamos y es más corto que este. Los quiero, espero que me dejen sus mensajes ♥
Title: Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai: The Clouds Gather
This is the first of 3 movie adaptations for the Saezuru manga.
Manga Plot: Yashiro is the young leader of Shinseikai and the president of the Shinseikai Enterprise, but like so many powerful men, he leads a double life as a deviant and a masochist. Doumeki Chikara comes to work as a bodyguard for him and, although Yashiro had decided that he would never lay a hand on his own men, he finds there’s something about Doumeki that he can’t resist. Yashiro makes advances toward Doumeki, but Doumeki has mysterious reasons for denying. Yashiro, who abuses his power just to abuse himself, and Doumeki, who faithfully obeys his every command, begin the tumultuous affair of two men with songs in their hearts and no wings to fly.

Happy golden days to all of my Saezuru friends, thank you for not giving up, thank you for staying strong, it’s been a hard year for all of us but I hope all of the suffering will pay off with joy and love in the future.
The bad news: Yoneda Kou is NOT on the cover of the new ihr Hertz!!!
This usually means Saezuru will NOT be in this issue!!!
The good news: We get to do Saezuru Month 49 over again! Because it was just so much damn fun the first time!!
For those of you who are new to this and say, “but but but her name was slated to be in the July issue!?!?” This does happen on occasion, it used to happen so often that the fandom, even in Japan, waited to pre-order until the cover was released because some stores won’t let you cancel.
We should be getting a follow up from Yoneda Kou on what happened. Sometimes it’s just a missed deadline. This can lead to a double issue, and/or the cover of the next volume!
The third and probably last preview for the new drama CD was posted and they chose the scene I was hoping for: Yashiro and Doumeki’s first encounter after four years! The scene starts with Yashiro and Nanahara on their way to the bar of Kido’s brother, and stops with the scene on the bridge at the end of the chapter. Yashiro sounds so sad when he says Doumeki’s name, it breaks my heart a little.
You can also hear Kamiya and Nanahara bickering somewhere in the middle.
The video is probably blocked outside of Japan, so you need to use VPN in order to watch it.
The cover for this month’s ihr HertZ magazine got revealed and unfortunately Yoneda-sensei’s name isn’t on it. So it seems like she’s skipping this issue. The reason wasn’t announced yet, but I’ll keep you updated as more news come out. I just hope Sensei isn’t sick or anything.
This means the release of ch. 45 is postponed till at least the end of July.
The results of the BL Awards 2021 were announced this morning. Saezuru wasn’t nominated in any of the manga categories because there wasn’t a new volume last year. But the drama CD for volume 6 won first place and The Clouds Gather placed second in their respective categories. Plus Shingaki Tarusuke got voted as the Best BLCD Seiyuu again after his last win in 2017, although he only recorded a few drama CDs last year, so his performance in Saezuru must have been truly amazing. (And this is where I shamefully admit that I’m a chicken and still haven’t listened to the sixth CD, because I can’t torture myself like that without at least the next CD available, so I’ll patiently wait till July… or August. But of course I still voted for Saezuru and Shingaki-san. He also has a new radio show btw called Shingaki Therapy for everyone in need of a soothing voice before bedtime, so check that out if you want to fall asleep to Yashiro’s voice! It’s great, but probably old news for his fans.)
Anyway CONGRATS to Saezuru for another successful year, and next year lets make sure our favorite couple wins everything again!!
Yoneda-sensei posted the cover illustration of the new chapter on her twitter account! Let me tell you it’s incredible and fully worth the four months wait! The summary will take a while unfortunately, but things are getting spicy and Yashiro and Kamiya are my favorite comedy duo now!
The teaser says, “Now that Yashiro and Doumeki are equals, their new relationship begins.”
It was just announced that the drama CD for Saezuru volume 7 will come out on July 28th this year, so we won’t have to wait for it as long as for the last one.
It will be a double CD as usual and cost 5500 yen.
The voice actors for the new characters and the extras will be announced another time.
