Brittany Vincent writes: "Overdrive's ongoing theme of "rock epics" continues with Deardrops, which is the follow-up to the decidedly popular Kira Kira. Kira Kira was quite exciting and pretty popular at that, crossing rock and roll with cutesy J-pop and plenty of girls of all archetypes to chase, as well as raucous rock star dreams. In the case of Deardrops, it's more like crushed violinist dreams, in the case of protagonist Suganuma Shouichi."
