This story is like the best slice of life anime that was never written.
The main cast and most of the storyline is cute girls doing cute girl things. This is taking place on a very creative setting with so many quirky details crammed seemingly everywhere.
But on top of that, we also have a starkly realistic portrayals of emotional abuse and the effects that it has on the MC. What is most impressive is that these two sides of the story manage to fit together so well. We really get a feel for Zeta and when she is going through.
The MC is a trans girl, but that fact is almost completely irrelevant so far.
