Reception

The light novel was generally received positivity reviews. Anime UK News gave the first volume a 8 out of 10 rating, commenting that "Piero Karasu manages to capture the delicate balance of keeping things light-hearted and also emotional when it needs to be." In Anime News Network's 2022 Spring Light Novel Guide gave it a 3 out of 5 rating, Silverman notes that "Piero Karasu has a nice touch with the girls' attraction to each other that makes the romance really slow and sweet." however she criticises that this is "buried under too many pages of world building and explanation."

For Anime News Network's 2022 Spring Manga Guide the manga adaptions was given a 3 and half out of 5 rating. Silverman notes that while the light novels struggles to find a balance between world-building and plots, as well as havin too many narrative voices that all sound alike, these issues "are largely absent from Harustugu Nadaka's manga version. In part this is simply because the manga format, with its use of speech and thought bubbles, negates the need for the confusing narration found in the book" Erica Friedman, the founder of Yuricon, notes that while the first volume of light novel left them feeling uninspired, the manga was well done enough for her to continue reading the series, "You want to know what the grand experiment is and how Euphyllia can help Anisphia and you cheer for them both as they launch themselves into a grand adventure. [...] now I’m kind of interested in reading more of the manga to see what happens."
