Reception
Xavier Guilbert, writing for du9, feels it is quite different from other josei manga.[2] M. Natali, writing for BD Gest', notes that the nonlinear presentation of the women's stories reinforces the connection between the characters, a resonance between the four characters lives, their feelings and disappointments.[7] The reviewer for Manga-News said that the author "managed to get it right".[8] Art wise both du9 and BD Gest' described it as uncluttered & aerial,[2][9] and the use of oblong panels taking all the width of the page as reinforcing the impression of intimacy.[2][10]
