Good theme songs,especially the shots for the ending.

First episode was very amusing and sent off some nice vibes,really like what I've seen so far.

Looking forward how this will go on,one can already guess that this will be heavy on drama,but I'm ready for it.and the lewdness too

Aaaaand I don't like Mei's voice...God damn it.

But at least the chapter was decent, the production value seems good enough for a yuri anime and since I love the manga I'm surely going to keep watching.

XD Sorry, couldn't resist. This made me smile.

To everyone complaining about how Mei blushed when kissed by Sensei, that does absolutely zero to indicate enjoyment. I'd bet that most people would turn redder when angry than aroused for instance. I personally took that scene that way. I assumed that Sensei was both her fiance and a human shaped bag of feces since no self-respecting man would do something in the open which could easily lead to getting fired and/or police involvement, and that it was a pure power trip on his part.

To everyone complaining about how rapey the Mei/Yuzu kiss was at the end, well... I felt that it was fully intended to make the audience uncomfortable. Haven't read the manga, so I have no idea about paneling or pages used, but from the angles used and the length of the overall scene in this version, I'd say it was absolutely intended to evoke the comparison to rape in the mind of the viewer.

A decent first episode. Yuzu went to the wrong school and got felt by Mei on her first day. She also stuck out like a sore thumb. That was some strong yuri scenes at the end. I'm curious how their relationship will go.

Well damn, I was not expecting that kiss, but holy hell if it wasn't intense. I will say I think it's pretty strange to go and move to be with your new husband just to have him go away on some business trip or whatever it was. And then how could any of this happen without Yuzu being aware that she'd be getting a step sister.

There's also the fact that Mei says she hasn't seen her dad in 5 years, yet Ume has apparently seen him enough to decide to get married... without Yuzu ever seeing him? Bad blood between Mei and father? Because if its just that he's always so busy with work traveling, then how did this marriage thing happen? Then if she's moving in with Yuzu is it because she want's to mend the relationship, or maybe she knew he'd be gone again.

Anyway, this probably doesn't matter for where the show's going, and maybe I'm just missing something. But the setup doesn't feel believable.

Truly the new savior of anime. Alright maybe not, but the art is pretty great and it looks like it's going to be a faithful adaption of a good manga. It's definitely going to be very melodramatic but the manga was as well so if that's not your thing then abandon ship now.

Smudy said:
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.

Who else feels bad for this teacher? He is obvioulsy her fiancé. And she is a super hot high school girl (that kinda resembles Mikasa) and is super rich! He is so close to marry into a shit load of money with a beautifull girl and here comes this random step sister and takes her away from him! Man that is gotta blow! Sure, im sure he will turn out to be a dirtbag that only wants her money and doesnt care for her. But still!

Asuming alot about the plot her, but i feel pretty confident im correct on most of my asu’tions. doubt it will be any different


Just a small warning but you've both pegged down Mei's character wrong. She isn't really thinking clearly right now and it's not her fault. They'll clear up the thing with the teacher in the next episode and I think you'll start to sympathize with her a bit.

If you don't mind being spoiled a bit for what's likely to happen next episode:
So i was basicly right?? Never really had a negative perception of her to beggin with. My point was that this poor teacher was so close to the dream... only to get dreamblocked by some fancy stepsister yuri story. If i was him, i would be sooooo mad!

IT'S FINALLY HERE. My most anticipated show this season, and it sure didn't disappoint! All that I can say is that I hope for a decent adaptation.

Great start so far, and I like the visuals. It's great to see the girls animated in their full glory! The kissing scene between Yuzu and Mei was really intense. Also love Saburouta's art used for the ED!

I really enjoyed it, although I don't know how an anime where they have tongues in each other's mouths right off the bat on the opening scene can fall under shoujo ai. That's yuri my dudes.

The teacher scene triggered me a little because I kinda recognize the scenario. I saw the exact same thing happening to a friend of mine, on an "alley" of our school, with a teacher I also had a crush on! And in the end, he was forcing her. I can imagine that relationship isn't really healthy. Her blushing face doesn't seem like enjoyment, it seems like tension. And that kissing scene afterwards kinda confirmed it too me. It wasn't romantic or cute, it was forceful, tense, she literally held her down and kinda choked her. "That's what kisses are like" means a lot here. Idk if I'm just being led on by my personal experience with that friend but that's what I got. Regardless, I really liked it, loved the design and just the general plot. It's very fanfic-y but in a good way!!! 8/10 so far.

Yuzu is just as fun as in the manga, it's really cool to see her animated <3 Looking forward to seeing more of Harumin too!

aaaand of course I expected the noncon scene, I really hated Mei in the beginning because of how forceful and aloof she is. So my sentiments are pretty much the same

As a manga reader I am absolutely delighted with this first episode. They pretty much kept nearly everything intact from the manga and they were able to capture the humorous aspects of it very well.

I was worried that this was going to be a messup similar to what happened with NTR, but my fears are now allayed and I'm very much looking forward to the rest of the season.

Also, Yuzu and Harumin are best girls.

This anime is surely starting strong with both kiss scenes

I really hope it ends up being a nice anime instead of the "meh" that was NTR, being a full-length anime will probably help with that.

I havent kept up with the manga since chapter 17 since there was a huge break in between that and 18. From the looks of it, this will cover up to about chapter 17, so I'm content with watching this and then continuing with the manga. Based off the first episode it will stay pretty true, and I loved the manga, so I think this will be a fun watch.

I'm just so happy to have a proper Yuri/Shoujo-ai anime that isn't 5 minutes per episode, isn't simply implied, isn't an OVA and isn't a hentai.
I'M JUST SO HAPPY :')

The OP song is catchy and I feel like the ED is gonna get stuck in my head over time too.

I was initially worried about the visuals because Passione as a studio hasn't done much, but It's better than I was expecting.

Also...the kisses actually seem raunchier here than they did in the manga. Isn't it usually the other way around? I mean, I'm not complaining or anything

Honestly, I'm just a complete sucker for these sorts of series- it's basically like every single Shoujo manga out there if the main male love interest was gender bent. It's fairly obvious how this is all gonna go down.
Can't say I mind though!

Great start to the Winter season imo

Well you can already call this the best first episode of the season. Great colors and animation, polar opposite sisters, and there was a hell of a lot going on. We got some fondling, some cucking, some intense kissing, a gyaru in a prestigious school, an old lady with a mushroom hairdo, a mom who looks no older than her daughter, and INCEST!? Well not really incest, but INCEST!? And not just incest, but LESBIAN INCEST!? Hold on to your pants people because we're going for a ride!

It's tagged as a drama, so I can see where this might go. Mei is going to be the character that I'm going to have my eyes on. She doesn't seem ashamed to feel up another girl, and she doesn't seem hesitant with kissing, so I'd like to see what's up with her. We got ourselves a Shoujo Ai, and the art reminds me of older Shoujo-style Manga which I haven't seen in a while. What a great start to 2018!

Finally a proper yuri anime with an actual story. It's been 7 years since Kannazuki No Miko. I'm not going to count Akuma No Riddle(not really yuri), Yuri Kuma Arashi(im sorry Morishima Akiko, not my kind of anime/manga) or Sakura Trick(basically just a bunch of fanservice).

I would be happy if people would stop bashing this anime adaption for no good reason because im pretty sure every yuri fan doesn't give a shit. Do you know how long we've been waiting for this? When I realised Citrus was going to get an anime I was so hyped (even if the art wasn't as good). But I'd still only give this episode a 4/5 because of the art and the feelings it gave me compared to the manga. It just didn't feel as... Angst? Idk how to explain it, it just feels different than when reading the first chapter of Citrus. But im definitely going to continue watching and give it a proper review when it ends.
I also gave it a 4/5 Bc WHERE ARE MOMO'S EYEBROWS???

Edit: just reread the manga and these are the changes that bothered me and made me not give a perfect score.
1) When Mei and the teacher kissed, Mei looked more repulsed than in the anime.
2) The way Mei kissed Yuzu in the end was way more forced and made me feel uncomfortable. The manga made it look like the kiss was over after a few seconds.
3) Yuzu said she was turned on by her little sister in the manga (•///3///•)
4) Mei didn't smile at her new mom :( and also gave more glares in the anime.
5) Mei looked more upset after kissing Yuzu in the manga.
Overall, it made Mei look more like an emotionless jerk in the anime. I remembered in manga discussions people actually liked Mei more but now everyone seems to dislike her. :/

been dying for some decent Lesbian action don't know if this will actually be it lol though i thought this was gonna be some bait till they showed like everything in the OP(nano.Ripe hype) will keep watching even if it ends up bad since it's still entertaining.

but i can't say i'm fond of that ending judging from some of these post the context was missing and came off like mei being overly rape-y sexual assaulting her,also made her look like she enjoyed doing it with sensei earlier


but that stuff a side i'm lowkey pretty okay with that flat chest joke how the phone seamlessly just fell had me dying it's such a over used joke but that takes the cake.

It was drawn by saburouta. The ending
