Reception[edit]

The series has received generally positive reviews. Anime News Network gave the first volume of Kiss the Scars of the Girls an overall B+ rating, summarizing that is was an unlikely combination of genres that worked well; "with its combination of a dark story and yearning romance, this is an exciting treat for Class S yuri fans and one worth checking out for all yuri readers."[9] Adam Symchuk of asianmoviepulse.com wrote of the series "the work here seems aimed at a very particular niche of fandom. Still, those who love a mix of kawaii, goth, and cutesy romance will be perfectly pleased with the approach Aya Haruhana takes"[10]
