tl;dr: A story with hit or miss comedy that does well in terms of some story aspects but drags on incredibly with others.

This manga in terms of tone was very different from what I expected. Despite having to do with the eroge industry, it was surprisingly tame, wherein not much really happens really. Like the scenes they're acting out are obviously ero, but that doesn't bleed much into their actual lives. Rather, it felt for the most part that it was trying to be more cute than ero. I can see the appeal in that, gap moe but kind of in reverse, though I'm not much of a fan. In terms ...

Story: When i started reading this i wasn't really expecting much from the story but as i started to read more of the chapters i actually enjoyed it even though the jokes were pretty... let's just say "sexual".
But, the ending was interesting though.

Art: kinda reminds me of the artstyle from the early 2000's. Which i kinda didn't like.

Character: The character development is great. But, i wish that "the two of them" confessed to each other a little earlier in the story and not when the manga was nearing it's end. (Which i didn't like as well.)

Do i recommend reading it? Not really, but if you ...

One of my all-time favorite manga. However, do keep in mind that I've had a history of reading plenty of ecchi and hentai, and as such am much more tolerant of those scenes and topics.

Story - 10/10
Incredibly sweet, funny, cute, yet captivating story. Even though it follows a more slice-of-life approach with less of a central driving plot point, there are linked-chapters, and most chapters flow smoothly without leaving big question marks. Well thought out and ties up most loose ends. Not many cliches or annoying fan-service, and ones that are there makes sense (I don' count the "ecchi scenes" as fan-service as they fit ... into the plot progression well. Thorough explanation for jargons throughout. Might come off as a little preachy regarding eroge, but it makes its point well and becomes totally forgivable.
Good pacing, although I wouldn't mind it being 30 chapters longer for the enjoyment. Plot actually progresses reasonably within the chapter.
Amount of drama/problem is just perfect to stir the story, but not leave the reader frustrated and/or depressed. The nature of the issues/drama is also light, and gets resolved quickly but also reasonably and with obvious care to detail and story continuation (no big deus-ex-machina type turnarounds).
Also, highly recommend you specifically read "Shishunki Crazies" before this, you'll see why.

Art - 9/10
Perfect art style for this kind of story, although it's not anything glamorous and might even come off as a bit out-of-date. Personally enjoyed the fact that it's in black and white. For some reason, that conveys the characters' sentiments well. Characters are defined and distinct. Kanna's so cute. Very similar to "Jitsu Wa..." art style in the sense that characters' facial expressions remain "world-consistent," so that the reader can tell a glare is a glare no matter who it's on. I find that nice, although some might prefer more variety. Art style is also consistent between characters.
Background and scenery are nothing special, hence the 9/10. However, the author's experience in drawing hentai manga definitely influences shading choices and style in many scenes, for the better. Some attention to detail.

Character - 10/10
Kanna's so cute! Definitely memorable and likable characters. Supporting characters introduce conflict, but also act as proper support for the MC's when all is said and done. Could do with a little more expansion on their own arcs, but still good as is. Characters are distinct and do not fit in stereotypes, mainly because they grow out of them and become something more by the end.
Main male character is highly relatable, realistic, and demonstrates growth. Main female character might come off as a little static throughout, but it works well, and there is decent development.

Enjoyment - 10/10
Super super enjoyed this manga. It's long enough to sit down and read over a couple days, but also short enough to binge. Thanks to its more slice-of-life style, you can pause reading whenever and it won't feel frustrating (don't have that urge to know the ending); even the manga's characters take this laissez-faire attitude as well. The plot doesn't make you feel tense all the time. Plot armor is just right to keep you at ease that nothing will go TERRIBLY wrong. If you're looking for a nice and cute yet hilarious and mature (both in topic and presentation) manga, this is for you.

Overall - 10/10. Would be an 11 if possible.

Kanna is SO cute.
