Reception
Rebecca Silverman from Anime News Network praised the characters, fan service, and use of body language, while criticizing characters’ facial expressions and the story’s direction. Brandon Varnell from The Fandom Post also praised the series, especially the plot due to it not sticking to trends established by other works. Takato from Manga News also offered praise for the story, calling it a promising start. Aurélien Pigeat from Actua BD was more critical, fearing the series would abuse other plot elements common in this type of work.
