Reception

Mania Entertainment's Patricia Beard commends the manga on "very pretty" character designs but criticises the awkward story "due to the assumed need to fit in another masturbation scene or reason for another masturbation scene".[2] Comic Book Bin's Leroy Douresseaux comments that the "boy on boy boot knockin’ takes a backseat to this gentle story of awkward first love".[3] Hannah Santiago, writing for the appendix to , found the story "unexceptional", and the art "inoffensively bland". She found the character of the "oversexed older brother" to be "creepy", but welcomed him as the manga's only character to stand out.[4]
