Reception
editKat Avila, writing for Sequential Tart, enjoyed Kano's "inventive" layouts and noted that Kano was developing her style throughout the book, and enjoyed the "refreshingly forceful masculine energy" of the lead characters and the playful plotline.[4] Julie Rosato, for Mania Entertainment, felt that the characters weren't emotionally connected to each other and that she could not connect to the characters, as she felt the plot was largely "yeah, yeah, just skip to the sex".[5]
