Reception

Mania.com's Matthew Alexander commends Yamatogawa's art, stating "The author does an excellent job expressing a wide variety of character emotions through their facial expressions. Panel sizes and shapes are varied with plenty of half and full page pictures. Backgrounds are fairly sparse, but highly detailed for an eromanga when present."[5] Alexander has also listed Aqua Bless as one of the top three Icarus Publishing titles in 2008.[6] Derek Guder, writing for the online appendix to Manga: The Complete Guide, also commends the manga with "it’s a rare for hentai manga to step beyond the bounds of the usual clichés, and even rarer to find one that marries genuinely inventive sexual fantasies with adorable artwork free of the usual gross exaggerations or fetishes."[7]
