Welp, that study session got awkward.

Matsuri is a quite an aggressive girl! She's not holding back at all with her teasing while also asking Yuzu suggestive questions. The actually made her character personality credible in this adaptation.

What an episode of teases.

That opening scene was good. XD

Oh God! This Matsuri girl screams of trouble and more trouble.

Best Girl Harumin was trying her best once again to look out for Yuzu but unfortunately she got called back. :(
If only she were there, she'd have prevented all this stuff. I also have a feeling that Harumin might just be suspicious of Yuzu likeing Mei. xD

That Harumin reaction when she learnt her Yuzuchi was no longer pure. XD

Sparks are flying between Matsuri and Mei, the intensity at the end though.

I would like to know Matsuri's inner motivation behind her stealing Yuzu from Mei. Matsuri is kind of interests me a little with the childhood friend aspect, but more character exploration of her would be appreciated next episode so that I can see why she acts in a weird manner with Yuzu. I look forward to Mei taking action against Matsuri next episode.

When I first read the manga Mei's jealousy at this stage was pretty awkward, but after
it seems so ****ing cute now..

I love Matsuri but it would have been 10x better if the girl didn't sound like a little duck :/

Yuzu had quite the dream huh. Matsuri really killed that game though. Hmm to think Matsuri had that kind of part time job though. The Matsuri now is much different to how she was before for sure. Nice to see that Yuzu managed to do well in the test though. Matsuri sure is perceptive though being able to figure that much. Mei's call sure came at the right time. So it seems Matsuri is trying to be Mei's rival huh. Matsuri sure is bold for showing up at Yuzu's school though. The confrontation between Mei and Matsuri sure is a good foreshadow of events to come though. But Matsuri will be a good rival for Mei i think.

Harumin is seriously the only character without a few screws loose. I guess I'm not surprised that Matsuri is also a lesbian. Of course she has some jealously sister complex thing with Mei. And to top it off she sends "fake" nudes to lolicons for money. Kicking over a sign and then calling to say it was someone else is also pretty psycho behavior.

God damn man. Hope Mei puts her in her place next ep.

Emm, did something significant happen in the new chapter and this changed the story dramatically? I am curious.

Well, although I know that Matsuri will not be able to destroy my beloved pairing, I'm still wondering what's going on between her and my other favorite girl Harumin, if everyone is so passionate about ship Harumin x Matsuri ship. So far, I have a rather controversial impression about her, and especially about her voice in anime.

Getting used to the voice already, honestly. I like the manga's portrayal of Matsuri's anger way better, though.



She either just glares or does a really dark smile. It suits her way more to me, as opposed to her actually furrowing her brow.

I already hate Matsuri so much. From her behavior even to her voice everything is just annoying. However I must admit that I like her eye and hair colour combination.

I need Mei to fight more for her relationship with Yuzu.

I didn't expect Matsuri to be younger than Yuzu. Idk it is kinda weird that she's a middle schooler.

No. It should actually happen right after this thing with Matsuri comes to an end. But if they don't animate it, I recommend reading it to understand where that ship comes from.

Oh, thanks for the answer. Well, I've heard about their dynamics and their "couple" on the cover of the anthology is clearly referring to the extreme possibility of this, but if Harumin is really a lesbian, then I would not really like to see her paired with such girl. I just do not like manipulative characters.

Apparently, this was the only opportunity to sell Citrus not as a narrowly specific title. At least, the choice of the studio and the director clearly indicated this.

After seeing my second best girl in Citrus in the anime, and reading the new chapter, I'm just really demotivated to watch the rest of the anime.
I don't want to drop it but ugh that chapter—
Anyway, I like Matsuri a lot and I can tell you all that she won't be as annoying later on, as she is right now…
But why does she have to sound so… emotionless but also loli-like.
I like her drama cd voice more than that one, it was more loli-like, I know, but I like it more than the actual one.
But I guess that I'm already getting used to it.

I demand a spinoff of this series featuring the adventures of Harumin.

Mei's jealous response was quite unexpected. She really put psycho pink haired girl in her place.

Matsuri is the pinnacle of trouble... She's already stirring up a lot of things between Yuzu & Mei and by the looks of things, it will get worse from there...

Now this had me wondering from the very start since I saw the opening, what kind of play with Harumin have in all this

A good antagonist pisses everyone off, a poor one no one cares about. Matsuri seems to fall in to the pissing people off category so job done there

Also she was a bit of a reality check for Mei. Jealousy is generally a bad thing, but good for helping people to be aware of their true feelings.

Harumin is still the dose of sanity as this point, even with that reaction to Yuzu saying Matsuri kissed her

Yeah, I think it's hard for me to get used to Matsuri's voice.... Never the kind of voice I'd expect.

Disliked Matsuri in this arc in the manga, and the anime did a decent job at portraying that as well. Oh oh, this will surely turn out eventful for sure....

Loved the episode, though.

It is truly impressive how much more you can enjoy a series once you just lower your expectations to absolutely nothing.

The new girl (Matsuri) looks so cute & edgy, a dangerous combination. It looks like the second half of this series is gonna deal with all of this love triangle drama, and things is already getting heated.

If we are going by the #1 anime romance rule, the childhood friend ALWAYS loses, but let's see where this goes.

Harumin really is too good to be dealing with all of Yuzu's BS.

Also, some scenes in this episode looked REALLY jarring and bad. Definitely a downgrade from last episode.


I also love how Yuzu can say this so matter-of-factly.

Looks like the drama goes full catfight mode next episode to determine who gets to be Yuzu's waifu. No holds barred. Can't wait!

The new girl deserves to be run by the truck, she's so annoying and whole the drama surrounding her was basically just bad. And cluelessness of Yuzu has no bounds it seems.

The series is slowly going down the drain.

i absolutely despise such ship. first, if that was hinted at, there are several points in the series that could be used to hint the ship, but every single one of them didnt, so pairing them would just feel forced, not something built by time. second, making harumin a straight character would not only keep things from being just another "all girls school where everyone conveniently is lesbian", but doing otherwise would be a huge hypocrisy, considering how harumin clearly stated at the beginning of the series she despises the idea of girls just making out and doing gay things for fun

also, lets face it, straight and single harumin is doing pretty well

Idk. This episode felt kinda boring compared to the last two. Matsuri is like if Ayanami Rei was a perverse 10 year old and is kinda boring. Also there wasn't as much relationship building with Mei like in the last two episodes. Also that hentai bait and switch at the beginning was god tier. That was amazing. I actually saw some really good directing in this episode. I may not have liked this episode as much as the last two, but i am still excited for the next episode. Also why did Matsuri sound like she was playing bootleg eurobeats on her headset. Oh god now i want to put gas gas gas in her ears. GUESS IM READY CUZ IM CUMMIN FO YOU

Well, I also have a negative attitude to this trope (especially because of its homophobic premise that the girls massively "became" lesbians because of the lack of boys, or the fact that this is a very lazy way to build yuri pairings) and I love works with a more realistic image like Sasameki Koto, but it seemed to me that the story moves to "everyone with everyone", even including twincest's hints. Especially when Matsuri hints that Harumin can hide feelings for Yuzu.

In general, no matter how exploitable this trope is, their pairing seem to me almost a canon.

thats what might ruin the feeling in the future, trying to pair everyone, and from my perception uta went as far as leaving a gap for a himeko and [weird spoiler girl] so they dont leave her hanging. still wouldnt work though because they would need someone to pair [haruyuzu shiptease spoiler girl] with.

a good ending would be yuzu and mei coming to terms, harumin straight and single and shou coming back home. but you know, we all can dream
