So, before I start this, I’d like to mention that I only watched this because of the memes. I’ve never really been into this kind of show -I’ve never watched a hentai before- and it probably would’ve completely passed me by if it were not for /r/Animemes.
Now, into the proper review. I went into this optimistically, I know it involved two lesbians and was a yuri, but I thought I should watch it so I’d know why it was in so many memes, and because I might enjoy it. But, I didn’t. I suppose I enjoyed the first few episodes, but I constantly felt like
...
I was doing something wrong by watching this, it was almost like feeling guilty in a way, and this only got worse as I saw more of it. In fact, it’s actually the reason why I dropped the show. When I saw that episode 7 was out I went to watch it, but I couldn’t really watch it and enjoy myself, I felt like I shouldn’t watch it and it felt overpoweringly wrong, so I gave up on watching the rest of the show and dropped it.
But, It’d be wrong for me to give this anime a bad review, it is a good anime, the art is well done, the characters are detailed, the special effects are mostly great, and some of the 3DCGI suprised me with their quality, and I definitely enjoyed some parts of it. The problem for me is the plot.
I don’t want to spoil it, so I won’t say too much, but this anime is definitely a yuri. I was shocked to find lesbian sexual harassment happening in the first episode and lesbian sexual assault by the third. I personallly think that that’s the problem I have with this anime, the fansevice and sexual scenes, while clearly designed to interest the viewer and in some cases turn them on, didn’t have that effect on me. If it was normal lesbian relationship then yeah it probably would of, but Citrus has the opposite effect on me because the characters are litterally sexually assaulting each other within the first the first few episodes, and that’s a huge turn off for me.
Overall, I’m going to give this anime an average score, because while it is a good anime that people can enjoy, I clearly aren’t the target audience and as such I didn’t enjoy this anime.
