Reception
[edit]Erica Friedman of Yuricon praised the series, noting in her review of volume 2 "despite the goofy premise, that initially veered a little closer than I like to something that could have gone into boundary breaking and unhealthy relationships, this series has been actually quite gentle and sweet."[17]
