Man, and people think citrus has slowed down. The special edition of volume 6 is having a second run because of how fast it sold out

And it sold out the same day it went for preorder, no less

People think it's slowed down? I know people tend to assume things they don't like aren't doing well. I just want the next chapter!

Slow down in terms of actual chapters we get those last months, not in term of popularity. Context is important

Well I'm only responding to the other comment which was discussing popularity. That was the context of the discussion--talking about sales etc. I do remember some on here who were recently wondering if the series did fall off in sales and popularity though. So it's not as though it hasn't been discussed here recently anyway.

No, I meant popularity.

for allusions. Please be patient because my native language is not English and it is difficult for me to express myself. At no point did I say that the anger of Yurihime magazine was due to low sales, I simply echoed a previous comment and the data is there, announcements of chapters that did not come out, chapters that came out unfinished, and breaks in the work without No explanation. Regarding "popularity" I am referring to the little activity in forums like this one (dynasty), Twitter, Facebook, and even YouTube, comparing it to the great activity that there was when citrus+ started, and that is undeniable. I love citrus with all my heart but that doesn't mean that if I don't like the way the story is being handled, I say so (and there are not a few of us), always respecting the opinion the opinion of people who find citrus+ wonderful at the moment . He concluded, truly happy, that the special edition of vol 6 has been sold out, and I hope that 2 and 3 are sold out, but that doesn't mean anything, nor is it what I was referring to, I will be one of the first to When vol 6 comes out in my country, go run and buy it.

Your English is fine. No worries there. Here's hoping we don't have the same wait until next chapter.

The limited edition of vol 6 includes a 18-page booklet depicting a day in the life of Yuzu and Mei. Is just a series of pinups with no dialogue but is pretty cute. The extra is a small scene between Sayaka and Miyabi.

And lastly, Sabu's afterword has her (according to the spanish translation at least) very excited about new experiences that she has gone through that have "stirred new feelings on her" that she will use to continue bringing happiness to Yuzu and Mei. So there will be citrus for a while.

The pinups, without the "small scene" are up on mangadex. They are very cute. Snapshots of a day in their life. Yuzu and Mei being affectionate in small ways, the sort of thing I feel we've been starved of in the main series.

Also, Mei takes naps in school! How scandalous.

I really liked Yuzu and Mei's pinups and the only criticism I can make is that I would have liked it to have been a chapter with their text, for me it would have been a 10 but I'm not complaining.What surprised me is the extra chapter for Sayaka and Miyabi, is there another arc coming for them? In my case I have already said it many times, Sayaka and Miyabi are two characters that I don't care about. and to conclude, what I said in previous comments, harumin and matsuri forgotten

Stuff like this should have been the vast majority of Citrus+ IMO. This small extra chapter alone did more to make me like Mei and see her as an actual normal young woman than + has done so far in 6 volumes. Mei having a facial expression other than just blank and stoic is so freaking refreshing, it's not even funny (^^)

They don't sleep enough 8 hours a day, if you count from 11:30 pm to 5:30 am, they only sleep 6 hours.

Noticed too, now with such sleep schedule and workload during weekdays as a teenager they would quickly burnout or worse if it was a real life scenario, especially Mei.

I know, right?!

Who are Sayaka and Miyabi, and did their chapter not get translated yet?

Who are Sayaka and Miyabi

Characters from way back in Volume 2. It's been so long since we've seen them that I haven't written Miyabi's name in a script even once in the 2.5 years I've been translating this series, until working on this extra. Translation coming soon!

Sayaka is a first-year who recently joined the student council and is a self-loathing lesbian trying her hardest to ignore her feelings for Miyabi, they were the focus of Volume 2.

I find funny that people are saying they don't care about them when one of the things people criticized of citrus was the addition of new characters who vanished after their story was done. Personally, I thought it was a nice coda to their story.

Squeezing more romance in a small extra than the entire series so far.

And this was especially good. ^_^

How was this extra more lovey-dovey than the last twenty chapters combined?

While I get what you mean, when the story of the main cast has been on the back burner for this long, it's only natural that readers don't care to revisit two random characters that appeared in a volume three years ago. In my opinion, the problem with citrus wasn't so much that the new characters disappeared, it was that they appeared in the first place, whenever the author didn't know how to continue the story. The fact that they disappeared immediately after the conflict was resolved only confirmed that their existence had no real purpose, but it wasn't in itself the problem.

That being said, I think these characters in particular were more interesting compared to others we've seen in the past, so perhaps there is something more they can offer. However, it's been so long since we last saw them that I barely remember them, if I'm being honest.

This one kiss page is better than a vast majority of the recent Citrus+ chapters. I wish the author would focus more on simple moments like this than drumming up more drama.

If China likes it that explains the censorship. Either way, Citrus is a masterpiece and I'm happy for Sabroota's success. Citrus+, has not been something the west has liked, but maybe that's down to China? Or not.

The author has not been able to write good characters mostly in this portion. I guess it's too bad she couldn't start a new story. I really wanted a spinoff for Harumin and Matsuri.

I wish she could be allowed to drop Citrus now and make a new work of her own design, in the vein of original Citrus.

If there was just some of the sweet coupley moments with Mei showing the little bit of emotions like she had in this extra sprinkled throughout Citrus+ there wouldn't be nearly as many people complaining about the series.
