Reception

Mania Entertainment's Julie Rosato described the characters as "endearing and entertaining", and enjoyed the parallels between the stories of the two couples.[2] Katherine Farmar, writing for Comics Village, appreciated that there was not a 'blissful' ending after the couples confess their feelings, and appreciated the realistic problems in the relationships, and the realistic working through of those problems. Farmar notes that Lover's Flat is an early work by Fujiyama, and so it overuses screentone and does not have a settled style.[3]
