Reception
Planete BD reviewer Faustine Lillaz called the first volume "a mediocre introduction that serves mainly to set the scene" and gave the drawings 2 out of 4 "good" stars and she described the graphics as very dynamic and the decorations detailed and wrote: "The characters are expressive and charismatic, but they tend to pose, which is annoying." Manga Sanctuary called tsubaki's Number completely disappointing with very smooth and basic graphics and layout that does not feel like a manga and does not know the purpose of the story at the end of the first volume.
