Reception
Reviews have been mediocre to negative. Anime News Network deemed the two storylines "ridiculous" and shouldn't "be taken seriously". Anime On DVD states " Martial arts action fantasy with comedic elements around a vibrant energetic cast created a small but vocal base that would lead to the release of titles like Battle Vixens, Tenjo Tenge and to an extent Worst. Each title mentioned uses concepts initially used by Real Bout. Capturing action is key and sensationalizing the art in martial is critical. Now Volcano High tried to take these ideas and expand on them... But it has failed. Wait maybe the movie did not, but the manhwa has." Both reviews agreed that the art was decent to good, but the overuse of SD art was unnecessary and illogical. Both reviews however, praised the bonus extras contained in the manhwa.

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“To aim to convert a man by miracles is a profanation of the soul. A true conversion, a true Christ, is now, as always, to be made by the reception of beautiful sentiments.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
