Many Happy Returns

Once again, it really is a great pleasure to wish the person who made that amazing Citrus review a happy birthday!

thanks for your review of Citrus. I went in watching it with zero bias, or preconceptions, thankfully. I was able to enjoy it for how it was meant to be interpreted. Idk why people gotta get hung up on an action with out looking into the deeper meaning, getting hung up plays a major part in keeping one from being able to see the deeper meaning. but different strokes, whatever.

why do people keep saying RIP, are you dead?

Hhahahaha lol no

haha citrus review man

It is my first time to post in this site and I have no idea if you will see this or not but I do want to thank you for your review of Citrus.

Your review is great and in my opinion I think you've brought justice to the series from all the trials and accusations of the show romanticizing this and that. You spoke your heart out to this show and I found your words as if you snatched them out of my mouth.

I haven't posted reviews in this site or whatsoever, and it's the first comment on a users profile that I will make.

I want it to be a thanks to you for bringing justice on a series that had its reputation tarnished due to a main part of the story that was essential in seeing how our characters grow and have their relationship develop.

My words may seem to be scrambled right now but the thing is, Thanks again for the amazing review of Citrus!

Many Happy Returns

Great Citrus review, I read just a paragraph or two before I watched the show - I hadn't been keeping up with my yuri anime for about 5 years or so, so a lot of the newer titles like this slipped under my radar. I wish I could watch anime in a vacuum like I did when I first started, because once I was aware that this show was controversial - I went in watching it defensively, because I'm a big lover of shoujo-ai/yuri. I thought it was delightful, and loved getting to finally see girls kissing - in my favorite anime, Revolutionary Girl Utena, we don't get to see that (not in official art). And Yuzu reminded me of another favorite character of mine, Hachi from NANA. :D Anyway, I enjoyed returning to your review and reading it as a way to appreciate what I'd seen a little more than just going by my feelings - but my feelings did say, I ENJOYED, and so thanks for the rec! :D

Can we talk on voice chat? I have homework to do and there's nothing I hate more than responding to people's condescending and longwinded essays in my comments. The 1 reason I didn't delete your comment is that I respected you.

I agree. It seems quite a regressive way to think to be honest. They hear a couple of negative things about said media and they tend to steer away from it without actually checking for themselves whether or not that media is deserving of this stigma. It's wrong, but, I think "The squeaky wheel gets the oil" applies in this instance. Bandwagoners, essentially. It's worrying how damaging undeserved stigma can be to some truly great anime.

I don't know what anime that person was watching, but I did not see any of what he was claiming in my viewing of Citrus. It's a shame really that he sees it that way because I found some moments in that anime quite endearing.
I thought your review of Citrus was great and although opinions are subjective, I thought most importantly your review was fair.
However, people like that person play a large part in why I tend not to rely on reviews too much and just watch the anime and decide for myself. That's not to discredit your review at all, it was a nice change to see a positive review of an anime I liked!

Hey, I just saw your exchange with RebelPanda regarding Citrus. I've already got my own issue with him, but when I was checking out his profile, I saw this exchange regarding Citrus between you and him. He prattles on boldly claiming that your opinion is in the minority, but a simple bit of observation says otherwise. If anything, his opinion is in the minority.

While it seemed like a civil and polite debate for the most part, in the last comment he's very subtly mugging you off! Especially with the last few lines, where he essentially is calling you a pervert and that you lack dignity for giving a positive review to Citrus, or for even reviewing it at all, really.

So is he basically shunning Citrus because he claims it's misogynistic and contains "fetishization of sexual assault" ?
