Ohwada (Hana) commented, "At first glance, she seems blunt and cool, but she hides deep emotions like sadness, joy, and loneliness. Those fleeting moments when her true feelings peek through are adorable." Hino (Luke) pointed out the gap of "carrying a painful past while being obsessed with shojo manga and rom-coms," adding, "It's hilarious how he stubbornly tries to keep his feelings as a one-sided crush whenever things might actually progress."

Ise (Silvia) focused on how Silvia "looks at Luke through a perverted lens." Upon hearing Ohwada's comments about supporting Luke, Ise joked, "I felt a spark of jealousy, so I think my character prep has already begun," to the delight of the audience.
