Rebecca Silverman for Anime News Network gave 5 Seconds Before a Witch Falls in Love an overall B rating; remarking that while the order of the one-shots presented in the book can make reading unnecessarily choppy, the stories themselves are still very strong. Silverman noted that "Simply put, this book is adorable. There's a real charm to most of the stories in it no matter who they're about, but it doesn't overtake the plots to the point where they become gooey messes."
5 Seconds Before a Witch Falls in Love was featured on BookWalker's top-selling manga for 2022.
