Reception

Erica Friedman of Yuricon gave the first volume and overall 8 rating and the second volume a 9. In her review of volume 2 Friedman noted that “Usui Shio-sensei is best known here for Doughnuts Under a Crescent Moon, which is an unconventional story about a couple finding affection. This series is similar in the sense that this is not a typical romance, but is about familial bonds and affection. The dynamics of the couple are wholly different, but this too is a series that gives us a chance to see a relationship that is not the typical framework of – dating-romance-partnership. And, in doing so, give us a chance to see partnership as something more than just an outcropping of love and sex.”[9][10]
