Reception

The show received mixed reviews. Paul Jensen of Anime News Network said that the show doesn't "quite translate into anything truly memorable", and said the show's early episodes focus too much on the characters "key personality traits", but said it is "still perfectly watchable in these early scenes". However, he said that by the show's fourth episode, the show has a "comfortable rhythm" that balances humor and jokes, saying it reminded him of Non Non Biyori. He concluded that the show is "entertaining to watch" and relaxing, but it not "genuinely memorable" and criticized the animation and art for being "above average".[11] However, in reviewing the first episode, Rebecca Silverman of the same website described it as a "cute girls show" she can "get behind", Theron Martin called it "charming", and Nick Creamer called it a "a joy from start to finish" while Lynzee Loveridge was more critical.[12]
