Fandom

Kurumi was a divisive character in the fandom. Some fans were put off by her history of manipulation and sabotage against the main couple, while others were amused by her antics and pleased with her redemption. Similarly, many fans expressed frustration with Kent for obstructing the main couple's relationship, albeit unknowingly.

Fans often joked about the excessive "bubbles and sparkles" special effects in the anime.
