Reception
[edit]Erica Friedman of Yuricon noted in her review of volume 1 that "it didn’t hold together, but as a series of doujinshi-like shorts, it definitely had it’s moments", while also commenting that "I was hoping that this would be a little more fully formed than a series of short gags, but it definitely made for another perspective on the lesbian villainess trend."[7]
