| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well this was quite something... OP song is kinda catchy althoughd didn't impress me. They really made Yuzu's personality stand out quite a bit from this show so far. Might have to get used to the character expressions in this show as it goes over sometimes. Mei is such a tease with her antics lul . It also didn't take long for Yuzu to witness Mei making out with a boy before running off. Got what I had expected from the first episode.  |

hahahahaha and trigger warning |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| The scene between Yuzu and Mei kissing was intense |
The battle is over.  Show respect for the fallen who fought so bravely. |
| Oh, I hope that the adaptation will not be extremely melodramatic, because the adaptations of this genre usually have big problems with this. |

| That was some intense kissing at the end. Yuzu really should've done some research about the school beforehand, but it's hilarious to see her as the nail that sticks out.

I can already see it going the route of melodrama. |

I'm more afraid to see something of the times of Maria-sama, because I'm already tired of yuri of such a tone. |

let's play " guess who's the mc" game |
| Not the best quality but good enough, op is cheery unlike how the anime will be like. That teacher forced kiss is godawful, they should have cutted it out since it contributes nothing to yuri. The yuri scenes ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) were alright. |
 |
| Of course the silent chick is fucking alpha, and blonde chick is "toy" The plot and setting seems like if it was from some hentai adaptation of some random cheap eroge visual novel. |
 |
| It was a pretty good start for reasons. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Yuzu sticking out in the school was hilarious to watch. xD The whole teacher thing pretty much ensures that there's gonna be some intense melodrama down the line but let's see. Liking Yuzu so far and Harumin is fun too, neutral towards Mei. The kissing at the end was pretty intense and good. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Good development overall, not sure why I didn't expect Mei to be her step sister. xD |

| Mei is dangerous. She did a very precise attack and shut up her new onee-san quickly. I wasn't expecting this kind of development so fast. |
Fuck yea, best yuri of 2018  |

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) I'm loving the detail on the main character designs and their features too ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) and man dem kissing scenes and dat cleavage scene (I've seen so many girls do that with their phones IRL lol) From what I hear, this manga is one of the best of it's genre so I'm expecting this to be one of the best yuri series I've ever seen (Hopefully it stays faithful to the manga) The OP and ED are pretty good too =o |

| Citrus is one of my favorite manga. I was super pumped for this and this episode satisfied. A couple scenes were new but they were good. One week at a time...at least it's a shorter wait than the gap between volumes. |
| I was a bit afraid it might not be as good as manga. I'm glad I was mistaken! Animation is beautiful, voice actors fit perfectly (although I expected Mei's voice to be a bit deeper, but I'll get used to it eventually), characters look very good (besides Himeko, what did they do to her, where are her eyebrows, where is her face's chubbiness?). OP and ED aren't the best I've heard but I like them, they're catchy, especially ED. I'm looking forward to see more. |
| That was compelling, i guess that's the strength that people mentioned from the manga. Liking Yuzu and her character a lot, not sure yet about Mei. To me, it looks like she's lacking self-worth, therefore she's doing it with the teacher to feel wanted, same reason probably why she kissed Yuzu. Character interaction is something i value high so this could be very good. |
| i literally went from.. "Yuri anime? eh... ill check it out, it may be hot" to "OMFGAGOKDJFLAKJDGAKFJLKDSAJGADLKSJFDLKSJFLAKSDJF IS THIS GONNA BE ANIME OF THE SEASON? WITH YUZU AS BEST GIRL????" dat HQ booty rub and cleavage O___O |
 |
| So, finally proper yuri manga adaptation? I hope it's not only for 1st episode. Good character design, good shading. Average backgrounds. As manga reader I'm not disappointed. I'm glad to hear again Nano.Ripe in OP. RobertBobert said: Oh, I hope that the adaptation will not be extremely melodramatic, because the adaptations of this genre usually have big problems with this. Huh? Almost all yuri anime around is comedic. Serious yuri drama is completely rare in anime. |

| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
RobertBobert said: Oh, I hope that the adaptation will not be extremely melodramatic, because the adaptations of this genre usually have big problems with this. Well it is going to be a bit dramatic. I mean we already have some fluffy shoujo-ai stuff like Aoi Hana, recently Sakura Trick and the upcoming one Kase-san. Citrus is here to even it out. A good time for yuri fans indeed. |
 Yes, harumin kill this B**** |
| The battle is over. Show respect for the fallen who fought so bravely. |
| I like how Mei pronounces "Īe". Reminds me of Senjougahara. |

A good time for yuri fans indeed. Oh, for some reason I do not really like Sakura Trick, but I will not say anything. In the same case, I'm looking for such a yuri romance, which will revolve around romance as such, rather than an endless "look, it's lesbians! Hot!". |
|
| Really not comfortable with the teacher thing. Mei is also a pretty irritating character so far. Didn't like Sakura Trick much because it was more fanservice than actual substance. I hope this ends up having more substance. |
 |
| A couple things are bugging me. Mom has already remarried and Yuzu still hasn't met her new father? And only now is the new stepsister sprung on her? Is it a culture thing to leave the kids in the dark like that? This isn't the only anime to do something like this, but c'mon, man! |
 |
| It would be quite difficult to start off a show with a more vacuous premise. Utterly uninteresting. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| I surprisingly really like Yuzu. Watching her struggle to fit in and make friends while also being submerged into a new culture where she is seen as a trouble maker. I feel bad for Mei...being married off to some older guy at such a young age. Can't wait for that to fall apart and she can be with Yuzu. Kougeru said: Really not comfortable with the teacher thing. Mei is also a pretty irritating character so far. Didn't like Sakura Trick much because it was more fanservice than actual substance. I hope this ends up having more substance. Same here. I don't mind some hotness but I hope it's not all lowkey porn and we actually get some substance. |

| Perfect adaptation. I've been waiting years for this to get animated! So happy with what I got. I thought I'd have trouble with the art at the beginning, but that became a non-issue, since I got used to it pretty fast, and was just busy being engrossed in the episode. OP visuals were great. Can't wait for next ep. Kougeru said: Really not comfortable with the teacher thing. Mei is also a pretty irritating character so far. Didn't like Sakura Trick much because it was more fanservice than actual substance. I hope this ends up having more substance. This is nothing like Sakura Trick. That didn't even have a story. Not every chapter in the manga (Citrus) has kissing/making out. So I doubt every episode will have it. |

I hope this ends up having more substance. Well, I did not read the original manga, but I really liked the first episode. Of course, it still has a lot of moments that were added only for fanservice, but the characters and their relationship are shown enough to that they liked me. |

Mintww said: RobertBobert said: Oh, I hope that the adaptation will not be extremely melodramatic, because the adaptations of this genre usually have big problems with this. The original was extremely melodramatic, and the first episode seemed to be going the same route, so there's very VERY little chance of that lmao. Honestly, the melodrama is why I dropped the manga. Well, as I said, if it's a good drama, and not "Onee-sama! 11", then I do not mind. I love Maria-sama and Strawberry Panic, but not in 2018. Mintww said: There actually weren't any additions for fanservice? They just played up what was already there. This applies to the original as a whole. However, I have not seen such an OP for a long time, where the characters kissed at least 2-3 times. |

| one of my most anticipated show this, and it's not a disapointing first ep... everyone sound like how I pictured them to be xD. finally Yuri worth watch, not one of 'those' Kuzu No Honkai and Netsuzou TRap kind one :P |

lady_freyja said: Swagernator said: The plot and setting seems like if it was from some hentai adaptation of some random cheap eroge visual novel. Well, yes. That's a smutty shōjo with two girls, after all. @RobertBobert The only proper melodrama yuri out there is Oniisama e, which is one of the best yuri anime out there, because it is a good melodrama. When a melodrama is done right, it's really good. Melodrama is a constant switch between light and heavy moments, they're quite instable in tone, and thus call for powerful emotions if done right. Or: Melodrama consistently displays "key constitutive factors": pathos, overwrought or heightened emotion, moral polarization (good vs. evil), non-classical narrative structure (e.g., use of extreme coincidence and deus ex machine), and sensationalism (emphasis on action, violence, and thrills). Quoting wikipedia for a proper definition. Maria-sama isn't remotely a melodrama. It's a very soft anime. Nevertheless, most reviewers criticize it for being too melodramatic. Not to mention the fact that in our time many casual people think that this is a finely thought-out parody of shoujo yuri. But in any case, Maria-sama has always been a special work for me, considering that there are almost no canonical lesbians there. |
|
| the kiss scene was so strong that it almost caused an earthquake |
| @Churchboy666 I certainly understand everything, but did she ask permission from Yuzu before kissing her? With your logic, this is also rape. |
|
| Okay, Yuzu is pretty cool, I really like her personality Mei is a bitch tho, she reminds me of some stereotypical yaoi seme, hope she gets better |
| Baby, daijobanai... |
| it was predictable and contrived, yet somehow entertaining to watch. |

| Wait, is this that lesbian anime series that everyone talked about? I am up for it if there is a lot of fan service in this shit. So, anyone know will there be any sexual fan service in this show or is just a generic romance series? |
| Oh my, better than what i expected. As a fan of manga i'm fine with this episode, it felt close to my heart. And man, that ED, so nice. :) |
