I'm not really trying to say that the drama makes the show/manga bad as if it is a fact, it's just that the writing in Citrus(at the moment) is not my cup of tea. Tsuki Ga Kirei is an anime that fits my taste. It's realistic, has a good romance with likeable characters and while there's some drama, it definitely is on a tolerable level. That's the type of thing I would like to see in a Yuri(by the way, if you know any Yuri similar to Tsuki, please recommend them to me)

Now about Gintama, I'm currently on episode 260, so there's a lot of eps that I need to watch xD

Girl Friends. Read it. It's like Tsuki ga Kirei, only better, and its my all-time favorite manga series. (I gave Tsuki ga Kirei a 9/10, but Girl Friends is a solid 10 imo)

Good luck! Try catching up in time for Gintama's final stretch. And keep your eye out for episode 300 :D (But you can skip the Porori Arc if you want)


I'll check Girlfriends out then, thanks for the recommendation! Also, I'll try to catch up with Gintama as soon as I can, and while you left me super curious about episode 300, I think I'll not skip the Porori arc xD

Although you won't understand why I say this until you pass the 300 mark, the Porori Arc just adapts unimportant arcs that were cut out earlier and only serve as a reminder for older characters. It wasn't bad per say, but it definitely isn't the best Gintama has to offer, and it ends up feeling like a waste of time. That's why I said you can skip it, but if you feel like mulling through 12 of the most uninteresting and unimportant comedy arcs in the series after you hit the 300 mark, go ahead and watch it.

I need a real backstory of Mei...her cold and then suddenly hurt faces are getting on my nerves. I need to know what the pineapple is wrong with her. To do those things to a girl and then say it was all to get her to shut up and because I don't like you is not enough to disregard everything...

Its nice to see Yuzu is so determined to get through to Mei though. Though here her sneak in was fortunate though. Its nice that Mei too is trying to move forward as well. Her trying to understand what a family is is a good first step. Yuzu looks like she's having fun using Mei's name though. Even when he's in hospital a chairmen's work is never done huh. Its nice that as a result of this that the chairmen has seen the mistakes that he had made and gave Mei his blessing to make her own choices. Yuzu sure had a strong reaction after seeing the double bed. Hmm an interesting way to shut someone up though. Yuzu's actions in the office sure was bold though but should have managed to convince Mei of her feelings.

Can anyone explain to me the significance of the scene where Yuzu is talking to her mother on the phone and tries to pass through the ticket gate which shuts closed?

Is it that she was absent minded and went through the wrong side?


Metaphor. Yuzu is happy at first because Mei comes back, but Mei talked about coming to be a family, Yuzu realizes that she and Mei will be as sisters ... not lovers like she would like. So ticket gate shut close at the moment where her hopes to be someone other than a sister shut down too.


Ah, much thanks. I was just wondering the coincidence of it and whether it was a mistake on her part due to being pre-occupied with the matter at hand or pertinent to the symbolism of the plot.

Good lord in heavens, the animation is so sloppy and I'm not talking about the CGI. It constantly yet unexpectedly goes from derpy to (pretty) nice. So vexing.

I loved the bed so much tho. It was so ridiculously big it made me burst into laughter. It didn't seem this huge in the manga.

And in regard to sexual assaults and whatnot, the anime itself seems to cut down on them a bit. I mean, it's based on a yuri manga, what did you expect anyway?

Buying a king sized bed for the both of them was hilarious.

Also, I'm not sure if I'm missing something here, but the sheer awkwardness from the borderline rape-y scenes is making me laugh. I'm quite sure those scenes aren't meant to be funny. Still can't understand what's going through Mei's head, desperately need development in her character to explain that.

Again, still not seeing how Citrus is different from other yuri content out there. Time will tell.
If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate.

Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too.

nahh, I like this anime (a lot, so far) but don't care about the manga/ln/vn, it will be a pain in the ass if this ends midways and doesn't get an s2 but even then I won't go to the manga. for me the anime is the canon and everything else is uncanon so reading the manga will mean nothing.

Why not read the manga even after the anime has ended? So far the anime follows the manga so it's the same (canon) story. Imo the forced kiss scenes in the manga come off as way less rapey and the relationship between Mei and Yuzu is portrayed better in the manga. Also, the anime will not cover the whole manga, you'll definitely get a cliffhanger. Wouldn't you be interested in knowing what's next?

Things are getting better huh...
Yuzu couldn't help it anymore and attacked-kissed Mei.
I really thought Himeko would secretly find-out the scene but it looks like she came late but she might already have a hunch.
Since Yuzu helped Gramps and taken to the hospital, its a good thing that her expulsion might be overturned.
Mei really have no interest to Yuzu...i don't think so!
For sure future episode will become more kinkier and of course more drama! lolz!
5/5.

I really like Yuzu and Mei. Individually as characters. But so far its been hard to get invested in their romance. Because it's been so rapey honestly. I think it's starting to pick up though. That ending scene with the chairmans office was really charged and powerful. I felt so bad for Yuzu. So of course that's where it ends.

Also I don't mind that the plot is batshit. But the surprise it's a twin bed and oji-chan's personality changing heart attack. Were both really silly. Also the scene with Harumi in the karaoke room was really cute.

Sigh, there really is no pleasing some people is there? I can't help but laugh when people complain about the overblown melodrama. You did read the genre tags right? DRAMA. Sure there are better examples of drama anime, but really this should be expected given the source material and how it's Yuri, considering the story as a whole would be hard enough, to impossible enough, to happen in real life. Two girls suddenly sisters thanks to a random marriage with the new father, who is nowhere in sight because 'away on business,' and thus 'due to various reasons and things happening' are made to live together? It's practically right there in the synopsis, yet people complain anyways. Then there's the people complaining interactions and change of heart things are too quick. Obviously. It's only 12 episodes. Would you rather get the changes of heart early, to advance plot and development, or have it drawn out for 12 episodes with likely no resolution? No guarantee there will be a resolution anyways, but me personally, I'm glad things like the expulsion and whatnot were resolved so quickly. We don't need an extra 3 more episodes for Yuzu to struggle to get not expelled and win over her Grandpa, considering one of the main settings is the school and the girls in it. The same people complaining its too unbelievable or too quick, would still be complaining if it was more believable but taking longer, "Ugh why is this so drawn out and taking 7 episodes. Boring. Get over your differences already. Blah blah." Pick your poison. Besides, pretty sure saving someone's life, no matter how ridiculously convenient the timing was, would make them forgive you or 'owe you one' rather quickly.

All that aside, I do think we have an interesting story here at the very least. Obviously the girls are sexually confused and obviously both have some type of issues they are trying to overcome or hide, plus they are dealing with adolescence and all the confusing feelings and hormones that come with it. On a refreshing note, like someone else mentioned, this anime's heroines at least have more balls than most MCs do. The same people who find Yuzu and Mei's actions towards each other cringey or disturbing, do they not find most pathetic MCs' behavior with girls just as bad albeit for opposite reasons? But when characters finally take initiative, like in Citrus, they hate it? Sure it can be upsetting, but this is literally the same thing people ask for in most MCs, except instead of guy and girl, you have two girls. Talk about a double standard. It'd be ok if a male MC commits such actions, but not two girls? I'm pretty sure if most MCs had balls like Yuzu and Mei do, their actions would be considered just as rapey by forcing themselves unto girls left and right, not to mention all those 'accidental boob grab' tropes. At least Yuzu and Mei are actually kissing each other and not backing out because they are wimpy or continuously getting 'interrupted,' plus, as we're beginning to see, Yuzu is beginning to push back as well, which is a good sign.

Anyways, rant aside, I'm glad we are at least getting something different here in a series, and it will be interesting to watch how Yuzu and Mei learn to cope with each other and their issues and feelings. Will it be with sexual gratification and lewd acts like in Kuzu no Honkai, to help them fill the physical void in their hearts? Or will it perhaps dive into something more emotional and personal, like White Album 2? Or will it just ship into Yuzu x Harumi (doubtful, but I wouldn't complain!), which nobody will see coming, or some other unforeseeable route? Perhaps Yuzu and Mei will never come to terms with each other and they'll both end up alone? Personally, I can see this series going most of these ways, and having liked White Album 2 and Kuzu no Honkai, I'm eager to see what route Citrus will take, or if it will perhaps do both, or something different. Regardless, as others have aptly said, I think this anime is most definitely rather spicy, and at the very least a lot better than most of the recycled crap we get every season. So cheers! Looking forward to the next episodes!
No I don't read manga. Why? Because according to MAL manga readers, all anime is either: too rushed, too slow, anime original, or a terrible adaption. I like to enjoy anime for what it is, anime.

I mean I dont know what people expected from this show after ep 1... I know what to expect since I am reading the manga but anyone can see this will be a yuri anime where the main focus is yuri and a relationship duh.

I also love how some people that watched Kuzu no Honkai and found it good think this show has a dumb romance. Then talking about forced sex/rape. Funny stuff people. This drama/edge/rape thing will go on and will decrease over time and yuri will be always there. I am not fan of drama too tbh but oh well.

girl friends and strawberry panic are probably the most accurate you will find find, but other series have subplots and pairings that are not the main focus but are good anyway, like kanamemo and boku no piku

Not completely hating this show, but I was getting pretty turned off with Mei's attitude for a bit there, and I thought it was going downhill until Yuzu slapped her hand and told her how horrible she was being. That was pretty cool and it really showed the depth of both characters. Yuzu isn't just a pushover who will fall head over heels and let Mei do whatever.
Some of the plot is really silly, an example being the Chairman's heart attack(?) and then immediately lifting Yuzu's expulsion. Kind of forced if I do say so.
Also, maybe I'm more of a person who enjoys reading yuri manga than watching the anime. Probably because I can look over these things easier than in an anime where it's blaring in my face lol

The question isn't whether any of this is rape or sexual assault or anything else, that's largely irrelevant, the question is how justifiable these actions are, and given who these characters are and they very much are.

i think its quite unfair for people to claim that it was rushed. people here are forgetting (or just ignoring) the fact that not only she saved his life but mei also explained to him what really happened that night, clearing the misunderstanding that was what got her expelled in the first place

sorry, i thought you were watching some not-rape anime instead of crying here about how sex assaulty this show is, well i guess someone is forcing you to watch all this animated series of rape, that sucks
