The humor in the game is a mixed bag; while some players appreciate the funny character interactions and engaging story, others find the repetitive "pervert humor" off-putting and detrimental to the overall experience.

Overall, while there are moments that can elicit genuine laughter, the reliance on certain comedic tropes may alienate some players.
- “Art is good, story is good for a family drama romance thing. Characters are not annoying and pretty funny, and the music bangs. There are a handful of songs that consistently play throughout the game, and they never got old. Stretching kitten is an all-timer.”
- “Other than the obvious jest, the story is funny so far and not boring to follow along.”
- “From what I played, I have to say I remember most of it so far, even months later. It can get you laughing hard; well, for me it did. When you finish routes, you get a little extra at the end, so it feels good.”

- “It's possible the routes are good in the romance development, but I just could not stand the super repetitive, unfunny humor.”
