Reception[]

Julie Rosato, writing for Mania Entertainment, noted that Kawai's style seems to be "characterized by long noses, large mouths and thin eyes", and that the characters look too similar to each other. Rosato enjoyed the "mature" first story, and found the last two stories "precious and angsty".[3] Christopher Butcher praised the first story as being "really, really well put together", and felt the others in the volume were also "strong".[4] A Publishers Weekly reviewer described the characters in the manga as being "sexy, believable characters with complex problems".[5] Holly Ellingwood, writing for Active Anime, felt the fantasy short "Kitan Garden" had the best art.[6]
