জীবনের মূল্য কী?

ছোটবেলা থেকেই অন্তমূর্খী কুসুনোকি বিশ্বাস করতো


থ্রি ডেজ অফ হ্যাপিনেস Reviews


  • Khandaker Sanidulla

    একাকিত্বকে সঙ্গী করে জীবন কাটিয়ে দেয়া এক মানুষ কুসুনোকি। নিজের জীবনের কোনো মানে খুজে না পেয়ে শেষ পর্যন্ত নিজের আয়ুষ্কাল বিক্রি করে দেয় এবং তারপরেই তার সেই বোরিং জীবনে কিছু পরিবর্তন আসে যা সে আগে পায়নি। শুরুর দিকে বইটা একটু ঝিমানো ছিল জানিনা সেটা কাহিনীর জন্য কিনা তবে অনুবাদও বেশকিছু জায়গায় সাবলীল লাগেনি। কিন্তু বইটা শেষ করে ভালো লেগেছে। অনুবাদ কিছু জায়গায় আরেকটু সাবলীল হলে হয়ত পুরোপুরি উপভোগ করতে পারতাম তবে পুরো বইয়ের জার্নিটা ভালো ছিল সেজন্য চার তারকা প্রাপ্য।

    This is too painful! Yet I have nothing on my mind but to kneel and embrace everything screaming, “Is that it? I need more! MORE!” I felt like a demon wanting to devour every single piece of misery Sugaru would let me have. Did I say that this is amazing? I will repeat myself. This is freaking amazing! I'm afraid to proceed to the final volume! But to hell with that fear, I brought this pain upon myself. No other way but forward now. I'm still hoping it ends well.

    I thought this was going to another feel good cliched romantic story but it turns to be a distressing experience; despite everything Kusunoki is going through, he appears numb from his way of life and is unable to express his feelings; despite being in his late twenties, he displays his emotions like a child, becoming unresponsive in some situations and constantly asking Miyagi and other characters questions.
    Miyagi appears to be a strange person at first, full of secrets about how things function. Her personality, though, is very similar to Kusunoki's. The only difference is that Kusunoki is looking forward to spending his final days with his family, whereas Miyagi is at work.

    And now they are falling in love I don't wanna imagine what's gonna come next for them??

    Kusunoki incontra Himeno, la sua nemica-amica d'infanzia con la quale si era fatto la promessa dieci anni prima che, se non avessero trovato un partner, si sarebbero sposati (ovviamente dopo essere diventati ricchi).
    Grazie a Miyagi scopriamo che nemmeno Himeno ha avuto soddisfazioni nella vita. La cena fra i due amici ritrovati sembra procedere bene, fino a quando Kusunoki le svela tutta la storia legata alla vendita della vita. A quel punto la ragazza se ne va, lasciandogli una lettera in cui gli rivela tutto il suo odio. Infatti il ragazzo, anni prima, non aveva accolto la sua richiesta di aiuto. Da allora Himeno si era ripromessa di vendicarsi ma, dopo aver sentito la storia - per lei assurda - sulla vendita della vita, ha deciso di lasciar perdere.
    Così Kusunoki si rende conto che anche l'ultimo dei suoi contatti umani era in realtà una finzione; allora decide di passare quel che gli resta da vivere fotografando distributori automatici insieme a Miyagi, che si mostra sempre gentile e premurosa nei suoi confronti.
    E ora affronto l'ultimo volume...

    Pensé que solo eran dos tomos y el final era super "????? acá termina?" jajaja pero cuando vine a GD me di cuenta que son tres y todo tuvo sentido.

    Acá tengo sentimientos encontrados.. la verdad es que es un manga con mensajes y con escenas bastante fuertes creo yo. Debería tener un TW pero casi nunca los mangas lo tienen. No se muestra nada explicito pero se hace mención así que les aviso yo.

    Me gustó, lo disfruté, me sorprendí pero a la vez también fue un poco predecible... ahora que falta leer un tomo me pregunto como avanzará la recta final.

    অনুবাদ আরেকটু সাবলীল হলে পড়তে সুবিধা হতো। কয়েকটা ঘটনা মাথার উপর দিয়ে গিয়েছে, কারণ অনুবাদ খাপছাড়া লাগছিল। তবে পুরো বই শেষ করার পর সম্পূর্ণ ঘটনাটা বোঝা গেছে।

    Much preferred the second Three Days Of Happiness volume to the first! I was looking for a shorter manga series to jump into and this was a solid choice. It’s very existential as it poses the question; if you could sell your life-span for a certain price, would you? Time and health can also be sold, but there are consequences.

    Miyagi is a much more likeable character than the protagonist, Kusonoki, especially at the beginning. They connect in a deep way throughout the course of the story because they both feel a deep sense of loneliness.
    Kusonoki is holding onto a childhood love called Himeno. A decade has passed since they were last together in person but he still holds onto that perceived connection. They had even said that if they hadn’t found anybody by the time they reached twenty years old, that they would be together. If they met again, would this happen now they are both adults?

    These manga panels are a raw depiction of how it feels to suffer with depression. It’s very much about “burnt-out gifted kids” - if you have had to experience these feelings too, then I’m very sorry.
    Interested to see how Three Days Of Happiness concludes in the third, and final, volume.

    And here I am with V2.
    What to say, we continue living Kusunoki's last three months of life.
    We continue following him checking off his list of things to do before leaving this world and we do reach its conclusion.

    There's still something missing tho from the narration. The story for me needed to be more intense and reflective. There is a very important episode in this volume that was way too rushed and immediately put aside to dedicate the pages to something else, a sort of a new hobby? Some more page time was needed here, especially for that event that was treated in a too speedy way. There had to me more sentiment and more delicacy in dealing with it. Instead I felt simply nothing because the narattion was lacking on feelings and deepness. Pity because it was indeed something very important for the whole story and for Kusunoki himself.

    With only one volume left, I expect now something majestic as a conclusion, a well deserved finale for this supposed-to-be deep journey.

  • Booksofswarley

    L'intrigue prend une tournure très intéressante. Je m'attendais à quelque chose de très stéréotypé, ce n'est pas le cas. Hâte de découvrir la fin du manga avec le tome 3. La relation entre le personnage principal et la "gardienne" est la force du manga.

  • Radwa

    - being close to death as a motiv or incentive to be natural and do whatever you want and truly desire is such a bleak statment on our lives
    - the himeno situation is just too cruel
    - the vending machines bit is very wholesome and sad

    Ammazza, questo secondo volume è stato una bella botta. Kusunoki incontra quasi per caso Himeno, l'amica di infanzia che non vedeva da dieci anni e con cui si era fatto una promessa: se non avessero trovato nessuno con cui dividere la vita, si sarebbero sposati. Nel mentre, sarebbero diventati ricchi e famosi da fare invidia a tutti. Peccato che le cose non andranno così per nessuno dei due. Sappiamo delle decisioni di Kusunoki, ma veniamo a scoprire che anche la situazione di Himeno non è della migliori. E che dietro ai sorrisi di circostanza, la ragazza non vedeva l'ora di farla pagare al vecchio amico che non avevo capito il suo grido d'aiuto (qualche anno prima lei gli aveva mandato una lettera, ma Kusunoki non ne aveva colto il messaggio tra le righe). Di fronte ai "vaneggiamenti" del ragazzo (riguardo tutta la faccenda della vendita della vita), Himeno lascia perdere, visto che non ne varrebbe più la pena e interrompe qualsiasi tipo di rapporto.
    A Kusunoki non resta che trovare soddisfazione nelle piccole cose, così da poter vivere le sue ultime settimane di vita senza dare problemi e Miyagi. E così inizia a fare foto a distributori automatici, girando sempre accompagnato dalla sua sorvegliante che ogni tanto gli rivela informazioni sul suo passato o sui suoi desideri. Diciamo che Kusunoki sembra aver trovato un certo equilibrio in vista della fine.

    Bellissimo anche il capitolo extra "L'implicita leggerezza dell'essere", ambientato poco prima della visita di Kusunoki al libraio nel primo volume: a un altro cliente in ristrettezze economiche viene fatta la stessa proposta, ma la risposta sarà decisamente diversa rispetto a quella del nostro protagonista.

    The main characters have really gotten through a lot and the simple artstyle gives off such a suitable vibe to the story. I'm too curious what will happen in the last 3 days...

  • Ananna Anjum

    অনেক ডিপ্রেসিং ছিল কিন্তু বইটি ভালো লেগেছে, জাপানিজ সাহিত্যের এটাই সবথেকে বেশি ভালো লাগে আমার।
    অনেক কষ্টের মাঝেও কিছু ভালো লাগা থেকেই যায়...

    Eh lol. Like I'm not gagging at women making this frankly pathetic character more complicated. Miyagi is just a romantic lead and Himeno kills herself... All for *this guy* ctfu

    Title Translation: I Sold Off My Lifespan for Ten Thousand Yen Per Year

    Another brilliant manga I’ve read this year that pulls on the heartstrings and provokes deep thoughts.

    A depressed 20-year-old man named Kusunoki sells the last of his possessions to try and make ends meet. He’s failed as an artist, he’s failed to be with the woman he loves, he has no dreams, hopes or aspirations left. After even selling the rest of his belongings turns out to not be enough to live an adequate life, he’s approached by a mysterious old man who tells him about a store that gives you a sum of money in exchange for a year of your lifespan. How much money you receive depends on the value of your life and future.

    For those that don’t know, 10,000 Yen is roughly only about 67 U.S. dollars. The protagonist is understandably heartbroken upon learning that his life is worth such a low amount per year and feels like what little time he has left is utterly worthless and won’t amount to anything good. He decides to sell the remaining 30 years of his life for a measly 10,000 per year until he has about three months left to live.

    A girl named Miyagi that works for the store is assigned to make sure he lives out the last three months of his life to his full potential without any unwanted accidents or interruptions. This has quite a few unexpected consequences for both of them. The three short months they spend together changes everything forever.

    An interesting premise that leads to a really beautiful story. Miyagi guides Kusunoki down memory lane, trying to help him overcome his regrets, failures and disappointments by confronting them head on. While battling the demons of his own life, he learns that his overseer is battling quite a few demons of her own. Kusunoki tries to spend the last days of his life trying to overcome his own heartbreaks while bringing some much needed joy to the life of his melancholy companion.

    There’s some really hard hitting truths in the story. Sometimes none of our dreams ever come true. Sometimes our lives never really amount to anything of any significant value. Sometimes people give up on their goals and get lost in the false hope that someday things will magically get better, but they never do for some of us.

    That being said, this story never reaches the point of sheer nihilism or hopelessness. It’s actually all about seeing the value in small things that no one else sees value in. Spending time with someone that matters more than any of your personal goals. Learning to live, laugh and enjoy the small moments even if they don’t have any significant impact on the world or the future. Not letting the cruel and unrealistic expectations of society overshadow your entire life. Learning to make new simpler goals when your previous goals and expectations were too hard for you to meet.

    One truly happy day has more value than a thousand bland miserable days, in other words. Is it worth selling a thousand unfulfilling days in exchange for the most memorable day of your life? Who can say.

    Really emotional and heartfelt story that focuses on the small fleeting joys of life without sugarcoating the harsh reality of it. Time is precious.

    في أغنية تافهة لأمير عيد بتاع كايروكي سمعتها وأنا راكب الأوبر مرة قبل ما اقنع السواق إنه يغيرها بيقول في أولها : لو بكرة نهاية العالم هنزل افول عربيتي وأعدي آخدك وننزل نلف ونشتري لبان ونجري ونتجنن وشوية كلام تاني عبيط كده لا يتناسب مع عالم بيخلص ، يعني هو مش هينزل يشوف أهله مثلا ويقضي اللحظات الأخيرة معاهم زي فيلم Don't Look Up بتاع ليوناردو ديكابريو ، مش هيصالح حد متخانق معاه ، مش هيعمل أي حاجة خير أو ليها لزمة من وجهة نظره كمغني غير إنه ينزل يلف بالعربية ويشتري لبان وخلاص كده ، طبعا مش هنقول هيصلي ويتعبد علي أي دين حتي لأنه اللي بيفكر في صلاة وعبادة مش هيغني الكلام ده أصلا

    مؤلف المانجا هنا تقريبا هو نفس المدرسة الفكرية العبثية بتاعة أمير عيد ، واحد فاضله 3 شهور ويموت بعد ما باع عمره فأمنياته التلاتة إنه يروح بحيرة ويبني قبر مناسب ويروح يقابل واحد صاحبه مشافوش من زمان، بطل المانجا قرر إنه آخر كام يوم في عمره هيروح يشوف الإكس عاملة إيه ووصلت لفين في حياتها واكتشف إنه عنده هوس بآلات البيع بالعملة فقرر يقضي الوقت بيعمل فوتو سيشن لكل مكن البيع الموجود في اليابان وبالمرة هيعمل ألف قطعة أوريجامي بالورق وخلاص علي كده ، دي كده مش مانجا ناشئين حتي دي بقت مانجا مجانين ياعم الحاج ، هي الناس بتضيع وقت في ترجمة العبط ده ليه ؟؟؟

    Non so se è avventato darne 5 ma a me sta soddisfacendo molto. Scorre che è una meraviglia, profondo, dolce e originale!
    Mi sta prendendo tanto che sono dispiaciuta e allo stesso tempo eccitata di arrivare all'ultimo libro. Secondo me la storia è così bella che dovrebbe essere ben trasposto cinematograficamente e diventare un cult. È strano che una storia così con un'idea di fondo così nuova e profonda non sia conosciuta da tutti come i viaggi nel tempo di Ritorno al futuro. Merita davvero tanto e si, penso che si sia innamorato di Miyagi e prevedo che il prossimo capitolo sarà struggente. È emozionante e mi ha fatto pensare alla potenza delle idee, obbiettivi anche scemi ma che sono significativi per noi, che possono tenerci non solo banalmente occupati, ma proprio darci un "senso" e farci sentire vivi con uno scopo. E ovviamente anche il fatto che la compagnia di Miyagi a una persona sola come il protagonista, lo fa stare bene perché gli permette di avere quello di cui ha bisogno( compagnia, attenzioni, supporto...). Prevedo che non vorrà morire perché è innamorato di lei e mi spezzeranno il cuore con il loro amore impossibile e qualche riflessione filosofica.

    Un manga remarquable, poétique, touchant, tant dans son scénario que son graphisme. Ce deuxième volume est en ligne directe avec le précédent, pour le plus grand plaisir du lecteur. On est très loin des scènes d'action à répétition et des amourettes de collège. Ici, de vrais questions sur ce que l'on peut faire de sa vie, de ce que l'on en a déjà fait, via une lecture reposante et stimulante. Vivement recommandé.

    Ta część podobała mi się nawet bardziej niż pierwsza. Niejednokrotnie odkładałam mangę na chwilę czy dwie, by po prostu zastanowić się nad historią i pytaniami, jakie ona przede mną stawia.
    Kreska jest ładna i dzięki niej przyjemnie się tą mangę czyta, coraz bardziej zaczynam też lubić jej bohaterów i zdecydowanie muszę sięgnąć po trzecią część (dlaczego nie zamówiłam od razu drugiej i trzeciej ; - ; ).
