[9] Shiori Fujisaki has received generally positive reception, with VGM Online writer Andy Byus noting that her face was plastered on a variety of merchandise, like shirts and CDs.

"Oshiete Mr. Sky"'s CD debuted at number 27 on the Oricon Charts and was a hit single in Japan according to Galbraith and Karlin.
