Jezz, what is there to understand Mei? Parents didn't loved her enough, so she doesn't know how to show love, so she assaults people when she likes them. She's also serious and all this lovely dovely crying game is beneath her.
She'd appreciate if Yuzu finally got over her whining and did her already. Bam, both happy.

It's hard to deal with someone who can't be honest, someone who says something and means another. It's also hard to deal with someone who knows what to do, but doesn't do it, it leaves you hanging and waiting and wondering whether you should do the first move or not. What keeps them from being apart is the misunderstanding and uncertainty of feelings - it's always been those things that makes it complicated. Mei and Yuzu don't fit it with each other, it's obvious, but what is there that love can't find a way? (:

though I want to see more Harumin x Yuzu. Their relationship is more lively.

not really raws are release every month(chapter 14 raw was release last January) it just so happen that translation was slow and the translated version was uploaded on last day of Feb.

Wait, I thought Citrus is serialized in Ichijinsha's bi-monthly magazine Comic Yuri Hime? And yes, chapter 14 was released on January, while chapter 13 was on November 2014. The next chapter (raw) is most likely on March.

hell......that was short but......BOOOM XD exactly. Mei always has her way to solve problem..in her .....own world. hiding....not showing weakness. thats why i said...she is the most sensetive one compare to yuzu.

Yuzu on the otherhand is a little bit open about her feeling.

haha yes we are all waiting for yuzu to snap...and fuck her sensless..for all the pain she has been through.....


I have some scene in my head after this chapter.
What would Yuzu said to Mei after hearing this.

Option Nr. 1

shocking by the news but try to gain confident back . looking up. took a deep breath.

"well congrats Mei. I guess is my turn now right?" yuzu acting tough

Mei nod but on the inside she was curious

"Well I ve though about us last night and come to consolution that...."

yuzu fight the urg to tear up

"....I want to be your sister. My feeling for you was just a crush. I was surprise by that kiss when you gave it me back than since....no one has kissed me before...so I was confused I guess......nevermind.
Lets stop doing those...kind of thing that sister shouldnt do. No kissing and intimidate touching. "

the pain that yuzu is feeling right now was unbearable........

"...Thats all I want you to know. "..turning around without waiting for Mei respond and walk to the elevator near it.

As soon as the door closed........she falling on the floor and cried her eyes out


that would be overfucking dramatic isnt it HAAHHAHAHAHAHAHA


Scene Nr-2

yuzu snap......start a fight with her LOL

but i doubt this will happen.

I'd say it's the other way around - Mei always said what she wanted in a relationship and Yuzu constantly talks about sisters and whatnot, hiding the fact that she doesn't know where to go, or like she's ashamed to be open about her love with the person she loves.

but Mei already said her part...and it was about dating Sara. So what would Yuzu answer to that?
I dont think she would confess.....after hearing that...if so...than it would be surprising...what I would not expected.

joined Feb 5, 2015

I'm more curious towards what Mei's true answer to Sara after Sara confessed, because it wasn't shown that Mei actually said something that resembles "Yes, let's go out" and also... Sara only confessed and didn't say something like "Would you go out with me?" or things like that. In other words, Mei's statement "I decided to go out with that person" might just be a lie to see how Yuzu would react to it.
Particularly Mei's last sentence to Sara at chapter 14 "Would you say... that you need me?". What's her following answer after that?

(covered the quotes in case it could be considered as spoiler)

hmm when i think about it..............yeah i found it odd too...during sara-mei conversation ....it feels like something is disconnecting XD....

..mei mention a lot about "needed me" ......this words mean something for her.....and sara connected it with love in this chapter.....she said about "need" during her father arc too. i am not sure

could it be that she want yuzu to say that to her? she wants someone who needed her?

possibly. the question we all have to ask ourselves is, 'does Mei equate love with purpose/(self)worth or is she trying to see if Yuzu needs her not out of love, but for some other purpose'? by that, let's go back to the teacher she was "engaged" to. in that case, he did not love her. he wanted to use her. she was no more than a tool. with respect to her grandfather, while i am sure he loves her in this own way, she was being groomed to take over the school. so there as well, the grandfsther needed Mei, but for the purpose of the school. now we come to Yuzu. Yuzu does not need Mei for any purpose other than love. It will be interesting to see how Yuzu reacts to Mei's rejection, because once she thinks about the question, it should make her angry enough to confront Mei. We shall she.

Now that I think about Mei's reasoning for asking the question, i wonder if it is two-fold. one being the points i mention above, but the other being that Mei herself may still be trying to understand what love and to love someone really means. for all the reasons i mention above, she doesn't have much experience with heartfelt romantic or familial love, so i question if she is using that question to approach it from a logical, more methodical POV.

ok, that's just my $0.02 and maybe i'm overthinking it. Also, now that we all know what Yuzu thinks and feels (for the most part), I wonder if we will be treated to more of Mei's POV. we get glimpses of it, but she is a shroud of mystery. IMO, i think we the readers (and especially those most vocal about their displeasure with the story) would find more empathy and willingness to go along with the story instead of finding fault, but again, that is just my humble opinion.

You know, I'm totally hoping for Yuzu forcing herself to smile, congratulating Mei and then throwing away those charms while walking out. Then her future bride comforts her => Yuzu x Harumin, start. Obviously that won't happen, though.

Sadly, I can't think of any reason for Mei to say the things she did that won't piss me off. If they play it off as misunderstanding (Mei thinking Yuzu is not actually into her), that'd be stupid. If Mei wants to lure Yuzu into actually confessing by going out with that other girl, that'd be stupid. If it's one of those PLOTTWIST-just-kidding-she-actually-lied things, that'd be stupid. I'm usually okay with all the overblown melodrama in Citrus and even enjoy it most of the time but this chapter was kinda too much.
But anyways, I genuinly hope things don't go according to Mei's plan so that she has to deal with the bullshit she just brought upon everyone and be the one that does something for her relationship with Yuzu for once.

Also, since Citrus is that kind of manga, Harumin is probably going to be the last love triangle in the manga and I don't want that.

oh shit..........with your version...i kinder get the picture now.

What we know is.
Mei doesnt know much about "LOVE as a Lover" and "LOVE as a family" thats is the fact.

-over the past....people always "needed her " but they kind of USED her. ..in someway for their own benefits and it never BOTHER HER at all. She knows about the teacher using her...to get her grandfather money but she doenst give a fuck about it.

-her grandpa NEEDED her..because..someone NEEEDED to take over the school cause her stupid father run away
but thats bother her a lot. she felt like she couldnt live her own life cause of these duties...she wanted to pleased her grandpa.

she asked these question over and over again "do you need me"

Yuzu is diffrent than the rest(if i am not guessing wrong lol) she doesnt NEED her for granted. WAIT WAIT !!!!!!!!

OH FUCK ..NOW I GET IT....holyshit

Mei thought that Yuzu NEEDED her for SEX..................omg............thats why the offer body part thing in chapter 13
omg ....this is it.

She though that Yuzu is like the rest of those folks who needed her for something. In this case is the body of Mei!

Now...Matsuri that lil bitch...mention it in chapter10 page 19

" love without sexual desire between girls ...is no diffrent than being friends"

Mei doesnt know about love a person that comes with the sexual desire......it has nothing to do with "NEEDED"
but its normal that she feel that way when you love someone.

Now this girl Sara come to her...saying she needed her for love

that will totally...get her confused lol

She wanted to know what kind of "NEED" yuzu has. .............Yuzu did the right thing when Mei offer her body...but she refused it. Otherwise Mei would get it all wrong.

Mei is still confused...........like "um so she rejected me..means she doesnt need me for sex? what is it than that Yuzu want?"

Mei think too complicated......all Yuzu want is..your heart....your love but she doesnt get it XD

Imagine a school principal returning home around midnight, having to listen to his wife talking about what she saw in tv today, who she talked to, how worried she is about him, scolding him for not caring about himself enough etc. while he thinks that he's not paid enough for this.
He could snap and ask her what the hell she wants from him, but no 'cause that would be a shame. He stews in his frustration for the next N years, 'till divorce or a psychotic episode.
Meanwhile, any romanticism that was left from their pre-marriage days keeps leeking away.

Citrus is released every other month. This most recent chapter was released January 17th I believe, so the next chapter will be released the same time this month. I thought I read March 18th.
