Critical reception

NME in the review called Thursday’s Child, "another leap forward for TXT," displaying their "continued inventiveness and improvement," while adding yet more creative credits to their resumes. They also noted that the EP captures the band's "journey of romantic grief," from the stormy "Opening Sequence" to the anger in "Good Boy Gone Bad".[7]

Thursday’s Child was named the eighth-best K-pop album of 2022 by Billboard, sharing how the group "cover a lot of stylistic ground in just 15 minutes on 'Minisode 2: Thursday’s Child'" while mentioning "Good Boy Gone Bad," "Thursday's Child Has Far to Go" and "Trust Fund Baby" as standouts.[8]
