Reception

Erica Friedman of Yuricon praised the series, remarking that "This series has the same kind of wacky humor we loved in Ikeda’s Whispered Words, without the melodrama or misunderstandings. This is a great story about two queer women I’d have over for lunch any time, with the occasional heartbreakingly good portraiture."[8]

Writing for Comic Book Resources, Jonathon Greenall named The Two of Them Are Pretty Much Like This as "2022's Most Heartwarming Yuri Series", noting that "One of the most memorable things about The Two of Them Are Pretty Much Like This is how grounded it is. Sakuma and Inuzuka's lives are very regular and mundane. There is no grand adventure, and the plot has no fantastical elements." He went on to praise Ikeda's art and the stories insight into working in a creative field.[9]
