Reception
Carlo Santos, writing for Anime News Network enjoyed the "moments of comedy" and the drama in Asahi's backstory, but found the sex scenes superfluous and repetitive.{{cite web |url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/right-turn-only/2007-10-23 |title=Welcome to the Scathing Reviews! - Right Turn Only!! |author=Santos |first=Carlo |date=October 23, 2007 |work=Anime News Network |publisher= |accessdate=February 4, 2011 |archive-date=May 11, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110511202008/http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/right-turn-only/2007-10-23 |url-status=live }} Leroy Douresseaux writing for Comic Book Bin praised Matsumoto's art, saying it "captures the yearning and longing of young love with ease and the explicit scenes with a modicum of decorum", recommending it for readers who are looking for something between "non-graphic" stories and "explicit" stories.{{cite web |url=http://www.comicbookbin.com/justmyluckmanga2007.html |title=Temari Matsumoto's Just My Luck |last=Douresseaux |first=Leroy |date=October 10, 2007 |work=Comic Book Bin |publisher= |accessdate=February 4, 2011 }} Ariadne Roberts, writing for Mania Entertainment, described it as "a little cheesy fluff", saying that she felt that the "explicit content" sticker on the front was unwarranted.{{cite web|url=http://www.mania.com/just-my-luck-vol-01_article_83589.html |title=Just My Luck Vol. #01 |last=Roberts |first=Ariadne |date=November 2, 2007 |work=Mania |accessdate=February 4, 2011 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20101222044702/http://www.mania.com/just-my-luck-vol-01_article_83589.html |archivedate=December 22, 2010 }}
