Side notes: As I first saw the cover I's willing to believe that this is something new about firefighters and slice of life thingy but it seems to be quite a mush of genres... and that can be a bit problematic. If the scale is too wide it can't reach the readers of some specific genre that well and it can also dullen the original idea and plot. It's like trying to catch the sky but never really reach it.^-^
The manga itself made me think Steampunk as it is one of the key elements of the art. The art is quite good but you can always argue about the chosen style. Also the "Ecchi" is pretty widely used and I'm not that keen about it... 'cause it creates too stereotypical image of low key shounen manga without any exception... if not used with imagination. And plot... that's a problem puzzle to solve. It has good in it but also as noted before... problems of mixing too many things together. Still it's okay shounen so waiting to see how it progresses.^-^
