Reception
The series has received high praise, noting that it doesn't stray from the show's signature tone. It has also been praised as the webisodes "feels like a bonus episode" as they were used to promote Subaru's "First Car" promotion rather than promoting a product within the series. The actors also received praise, with some noting "the actors are in top form".
