So I just reread some chapters and goodness, Mei's character development is such a mess. I remember thinking that she might've been emotionally damaged because she may or may not have been raped by that teacher and she kept coming onto Yuzu because she considered that normal and it was the only way she knew to deal with her new step sis, but nooo it had to be those stupid daddy issues. I can't believe that plotline got dropped so easily after Yuzu's "speech", you don't even get to know what happened to the teacher and so on. You'd think sexual assault on a student would have serious repercussions.
That plotline alone would've been enough to carry a story. It would have made for some intense character development, healing and learning to have normal relationships for Mei and maturing for Yuzu.
Or the thing with the chairman - simply stupid. It seems quite unrealistic to get expelled that easily and I swear that his sickness, seizure or whatever was one of, if nor the most convenient resolution ever in story telling.
Gosh, I didn't mean to write this much but this story make me sad or maybe even mad. There aren't a lot of great Yuri series's and Citrus could've been one of them. There's so much wasted potential and it could've been much, much better.
I guess I'll just keep reading for the fake drama and great art.
Edit: > This is a very promising start.
I wrote that a year ago and I couldn't have been more wrong, lol
