Reception
The anime received mixed reviews. Paul Jensen of Anime News Network said that it does not "quite translate into anything truly memorable" and its early episodes focus too much on the characters "key personality traits". He said the anime is "still perfectly watchable in these early scenes" and that by Episode 4 of the anime, it has a "comfortable rhythm" that balances humor and jokes, saying it reminded him of Non Non Biyori. He ended that the series is "entertaining to watch" and relaxing, but is not "genuinely memorable" and criticized the animation and art for being "above average". However, while 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"; Nick Creamer called it a "a joy from start to finish"; Lynzee Loveridge was more critical.
