I would like to have something more insightful as the apparent first review of this manga, but really it's just kind of cute and about what you would expect for a single volume's worth of AU Fluff.

This manga takes the majority of fan-favorite characters from Final Fantasy XIV (in particular, Alisae and Alphinaud take center stage) and plops them all in an AU where they all attend the same academy together, some as teachers and some as students. The students and faculty are further divided between the Light and Darkness classes, being brought under the same roof as a school merge. From there, each chapter ... delves into a new situation that can play on the quirks of the characters and the rivalry between the Light and Darkness classes. A beach chapter, a school festival chapter, and so on.

As someone that had spent a good couple thousand hours playing the game prior to having to take a hiatus due to technical issues... I had a good time overall. It was fun, light, and you didn't need to think too deeply about anything. You see faces you probably haven't seen in forever, depending on where you are in the game. And if you haven't played the game... well, in that case, the only appeal this manga will have for you is generic cute fluff with a slight fantasy element + moogles, as none of these characters will mean anything to you at this point.
