Reception

ActiveAnime's Rachel Bentham commends that the manga's art as "racy, sexy and hot".[4] Coolstreak Comics' Leroy Douresseaux comments that the manga "offers the best of BL and yaoi – intense romantic love between two men and hot sex!"[5] Mania.com's Nadia Oxford comments that the manga "remains completely entrenched in yaoi stereotypes. To begin with, Kazuma doesn't begin the story gay, but as soon as he meets Maya, he can't help himself. There's certainly a lot of mystery behind human sexuality, but it seems like Kazuma's love for Shinya/Maya blossoms out of nowhere".[6]

gollark: Oh, that IS a very good image actually.
gollark: I can't find any images beyond random generic "cloud computery" things.
gollark: I'm actually not very sure what to say to say a sufficient amount about the first slide now.
gollark: You make a "draft" and you "improve" the "draft".
