Reception

"While I have hope that a future volume will make use of the story’s potential, the first volume is, unfortunately, unremarkable." — Thomas Zoth, Mania.^[2] "The visual storytelling shows off the mangaka’s strengths nicely, though the story itself lacks the same depth of skill." — Melinda Beasi, Pop Culture Shock.^[3] "A charismatic lead character and a healthy dose of magic give this series its sparkle, but the poor story execution drags it down to a C+." — Carlo Santos, Anime News Network.^[4] "This is not great work, but the making of this manga was certainly inspired." — Leroy Douresseaux, Comic Book Bin.^[5] "Amefurashi is a fun adventure and the art style has the trademarks of Atsushi Suzumi’s love for girls in various costumes." — Holly Ellingwood, Active Anime.^[6] "Interesting characters, a unique setting and the beginning of a grand adventure and struggle provide a strong initial effort." — Dan Polley, Comics Village.^[7]
