Reception
Rebecca Silverman from Anime News Network praised the first volume for its action and plot, while criticizing the art for being "too bright" and stating that it "lacks backgrounds". Reviewing for Otaku USA, Jason Thompson also praised the action and compared it to that of D.Gray-man, while criticizing the story and character, calling the story "repetitive" and stating the characters "[only have] four moods: snark, angst, fighting, and making out". Like Silverman and Thompson, Sean Gaffney from A Case Suitable for Treatment also praised the action, while also criticizing the plot, stating that he "couldn't get a handle on the story". Contrary to other reviewers, Mathew Warner from The Fandom Post praised the plot, stating it "can be a lot of fun" and calling the series over a "fairly enjoyable read". Erkael from Manga News also offered praise for the action, while also criticizing the art for being generic.
