Reception
Encyclopedia of Science Fiction contributor Steven Pearce gave a short positive review of the show, saying that the show uses Judy's condition to "explore teenage social anxieties" at first, but this later changes, praising it for its story which relies on science fiction tropes, and humor, calling it "an interesting and amusing show."[11] Bubble Blabber praised the series for its mature content, including supernatural themes, character designs, and animation, while questioning its episode times and the release schedule, but calling it "kind of brilliant."[12]
