This felt like it was written by an author who is completely and totally aware of the injustices women face from men. All the heterosexual sex is shown as relatively unappealing and JunNene often ignore them to have sex together or complain about each other's boyfriends. At the same time, the author is unable to conceive of a non-misogynistic world where lesbians can freely love each other and live a life without men. Their chemistry is still incredible and you can feel the love.
Come for the sex and stay for the incredibly compelling couple.

It was great in Volumes 1 + 2 when it was much more comedic. Even though it does try to comment on the issue of class, I found it still managed to favour the noblity/upper-class despite having some sympathy for the proletariat. But there are still a lot of good things about this manga! Claire and Rae are both lovely and their relationship development progresses naturally. Claire being loved so wholeheartedly for her pride and haughtiness was very sweet.

This really charmed me! I love the setting of a girls' school, it really feels like the boarding school children's books. The conflicts were believable and realistic especially Rosa with her parents. Rosa and Steph along with the cast felt like really strong, unique characters in general. I was also pleasantly surprised by how Liz's grooming by her tutor was treated. My only complaint is that it's very ambiguously 'yuri' despite being labelled as Girl's Love.
