artstyle is good, but that's it. this comic tries veeeery hard to come off as a japanese work, even the setting is japanese, yet the author just doesn't know how japanese language works. comes off as something a weeaboo would create, not in a good way. idea is good, execution is not

Gosh everything about this is cute, the character designs, the love interest guy, the little doggie. I am so sold on this series. Pass me the fluff!!! Also that the main character has 1 good day.

as a Trans Guy I relate so much to Hiroki. I looked forward to seeing more of your work. It really made me feel seen and less alone
