My Hero

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

I have a childhood friend.

We did s*upid things, made the adults angry, were put to cleaning the toilets together, complained it was a pain and went off to play, only to make them angry again. When we were kicked out to sleep in the shed, we made a ruckus all the way through the night, received the iron fist to the head, and grew older together.

That friend became the hero and saved the world.

Recommended!!

I went in not knowing what the story is about but I have absolutely no regrets about reading it!

Basically it's about two childhood friends, one is a normal guy and one is the hero chosen to defeat the spirit king. It's very narration based (character summarizing events) but that doesn't take away from the story, because the point of the story is to explain why the childhood friend sees the other as their hero.

Don't worry if you're not into BL/Yaoi, this isn't that Type of story. The guys have such... more>> a nice bromance though, I was surprised at how touching this story actually is. ;-; Anyways, give it a shot. I did and I wasn't disappointed. :3 <<less

I wasn't expecting much from this when I found this because of no cover image but I for sure not regret reading this short story. It was one of the most touching short stories I have ever read, and was really touching and warm to my heart. I encourage people to read this if you happen to be on this page. After all it is just a short story and wont take up your time so please.

I've stumbled upon this great heartwarming story while pressing the random button. But, boy! I did not have any regrets reading it.

Sometimes, stories like this heals the soul and warms the heart.

And I'm pretty sure after reading this. You would be basking in the afterglow of the story.

It was a short, simple and sweet story of two guys (bromance, not Yaoi/BL though) as told from their own perspective. Two childhood friend on their journey as one became the hero and the other accompany his hero as they went to fight the Spirit King.

The story telling was not as a dramatic as the MC was a man. However, it still... heart-warming.

Kudos to the author.

The writing isn't anything special, but the contents of the story are awesome. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy~

An attempt at a summary:

Two childhood friends (same gender, not homo) go on a trip in the hero's party to fight the Spirit King. The story is told from their perspectives and focuses more on their relationship than on any action or side characters.

Ack, I didn’t mean to cry. The story is about the male hero (Yuusha) and his non-romantic but very close relationship with his male childhood friend.

Geez, their relationship goes deeper than any romance or friendship.

As you read the story from their points of view, you’ll get to rethink the possibilities of what it means to be a hero and a friend.

WHO GAVE tHIs the rIght to f*ck with my emotions so much??? Where can I thank them????

Let me tell you, kind person. I read this short story in probably less than 7 minutes, but i'll still remember it for so long. You will never regret picking up this story. It's not very angsty, per say; it ends very nicely. Just, very memorable. It makes you want to cherish the people in your life.

It's beautiful, a tale of two childhood friends. One is a hero who keeps getting lost,... more>> and the other is his childhood friend who grounds him and finds him again, no matter how many times.

The story switches between the childhood friends' POV. It never mentions names, only "my childhood friend." And somehow, this makes the story even more poignant and unique. This is not BL, but a chance of beautiful friendship or bromance (if you will). Absolutely stunning.

I want to cry this was so good <<less

Recently, I was searching for novels with something like bromance. I saw this short story and its high rating made me curious but I still felt hesitant for unknown reasons so I left this on my list for a while. Today, I finally started reading this one and regretted not reading this earlier. Nevertheless, better late than never.

I love the story so much! The amount of fluff drowned me. It's simple yet unique. It's short but it was able to tell the main protags' great friendship.

Spoiler

The hero pulling out the sword that no one can pull out before, goes on a journey to defeat a monster yada yada. The hero learns he's from something, not originally like this, yada yada. This kind of plot couldn't be more cliche.

[collapse]

I think the uniqueness came from the characters. IMO, they're written so well.

The thought that they're each other's heroes made my heart so warm. One almost can't live without the other. The kind of friendship I could only dream of. <<less

I literally cried. It talks about a childhood friends who became their own heroes. They were together until they were old. Sometimes I ship them but they married someone, I hate it!!

It was sweet but bitter. But it's worth it.

It's funny. It's heart warming. It's very short.

Totally worth a read. Would recommend.

It's hard to review this because of how short it is. Any comments would feel like spoilers.

It's friendship from 2 perspectives, the directionally challenged hero and the guy stuck with keeping track of him.

I have read it more than once and will likely read it again.

it is a very cute short story. You might feel it is nonsensical at first, however if you read carefully and understand what 'fae' and 'spirit' usually stand for, you will get the reason before the second half of the story. Still, even if you dont get it it is still nice and fluffy.

I felt so emotional reading this. This isn’t BL. And more importantly, the trust and friendship between these two people was so wonderful. Even though it’s so beautiful and it wasn’t too heartbreaking, I thought I had become one with the rain. They lived a full life and it was a happy end, but I still felt sentimental. Definitely a 5/5

It's a short story about the friendship between 2 people (but.... if you are to look at the whole story in a different point............. you know what I mean. Yes I am refering to you, yes you, the fujioshi)

Translations are good and the way the story is told is also excellent. You get to see how the 2 characters think and how they view each other.

Definitely a good read and wouldn't disappoint you.

It is very good and simple story about 2 friends who thought they are useless in each other life but actually regard each other as hero.

one friend is perfect in every sense but in directions (with good reason) and another friend is average but can always find his friend. They are both made for each other (no BL).

There aren't any dialogues in story just narration and POV how both friend feel about each other. Descriptions are funny and heartwarming.

story is divided into two parts with both's point of view and... more>> is quite simple. Pace is little fast because it is one-shot but you keep wanting for more by end and wish more story about them. <<less

A short story following two heroes on their journey to save the world... except something is not quite right with one of them, causing him to have a drastically different experience during what should be the same set of events they go through together.

Ends quite quickly, but is quite clever with the story it tells and has good emotional impact.

Translation by Yoraikun Translation is good.
