Reception
Coolstreak Cartoons's Leroy Douresseaux comments on how the "love between two people" takes priority over everything else in the manga. Pop Shock Culture's Katherine Dacey commends the manga for "emphasizing steamy encounters between beautiful men in period costume over long-winded political discussions". Mania.com's Nadia Oxford commends Fumi Yoshinaga's artwork but criticises the backgrounds that "remain disappointingly sparse".
