Reception[edit]
In a review of the first two volumes, Rebecca Silverman of Anime News Network praised the series for its art and its story, stating: "With You and the Rain is a slow, sweet story about the bond between a woman and her pet. Does it matter what the pet is? Maybe, but I think the main appeal of this series is how simple it is to just sit back and enjoy the ride."[14]
The series was nominated for the 2022 Next Manga Award in the print manga category and was placed fourth out of 50 nominees.[15][16]
