The raw ones came out about two weeks ago, right? is it going to be published?

Once more looks like there'll be no new Citrus+ chapter in October, either https://www.ichijinsha.co.jp/yurihime/next/

I'm sorry I haven't been keeping up, what is going on with Citrus' publication?

That seems to be the big question. Some people have speculated about the author’s health, but as far as anyone can tell that is indeed completely speculation. Saburouta does seem to be doing some Citrus-related work, like for the collected volumes. But new chapters of Citrus+ have been very few and far between and with (at least in my opinion) not a great deal of focus in the plot or characterization, and sometimes with the art obviously not completely finished.

If anyone knows more I would certainly be interested to hear it.

It has already been confirmed by several sites that in November there will be a chapter of citrus + (we will see if it has been worth the wait). And as far as it refers to everything is speculation (that if she is sick, that if she has taken a vacation, that if she is working on another project, that if she does not know how to continue the story and has taken some time to reflect, that if she has gotten bored ... who knows what we know for sure is that from October 2023 to October 2024 she has only published one chapter to close vol 6 and put it up for sale and apart from that three tweets, one on New Years, to tell us that she wanted to try "new things" (no idea) another to talk about merch, and another to tell us that the citrus anime would be free on YT for a certain time. We will see if after she publishes in November she maintains a more stable periodicity or if she announces something that we do not know. Greetings

As of June 2024 Citrus has sold 4 million copies in 16 volumes (1.9 million just from Japan alone) and according to the most recent numbers we have, is the second best selling yuri manga. Only behind Saki and above Yuru Yuri

I can get debating quality but Citrus is clearly very popular to this day. The other stuff is more interesting to me. For example, I love seeing 2DK and Fuzoroi no Renri up there. For some reason I forget how popular Murcielago is every now and then.
Nobody doubts that citrus is popular, I'm the first to "criticize" but I'm still here. Those data that you have provided are wonderful, but they also continue to talk about the past (in my humble opinion) because Treats citrus and citrus+ as a whole, when here we are talking about citrus+, not the original series. It would be interesting to see sales data separating the original series, and citrus+, as two series Independent (even if they are not). The reality is that one year we have only had one episode of citrus+ and history (in my opinion) has taken a bassoon. The future will.If you don't publish and months and months go by without information, and if you don't give something "attractive" to the reader, in the end people will end up getting tired. Greetings

Another month with a big fat NOTHING!!!!! End it. Kill it. Over and done with. Author is too busy living off the past to care about the future.

i mean can you really live of the past with the moderate success that citrus had

good question. According to some comments that I have read out there, it is an asset of the Yurihime magazine, and that is why this periodicity is allowed and and the lack of information , which would not be allowed in another manga. Someone would have to explain to me how citrus+ can be an asset for the magazine, if in a magazine that comes out every month, in a year it has only had one chapter in publication in the magazine itself ....

Lol not only that, but it looks like there'll also be no new chapter next month, according to a preview from YH (https://www.ichijinsha.co.jp/yurihime/next/)

well it doesn't surprise me. the periodicity of citrus+ has plummeted. After going 6 months without releasing a chapter, I released one to close volume 6 and put it on sale and after that one would think that I would return a little to a more stable periodicity, but we are back to our old ways. But hey, if yurihime magazine is happy with this, then good for them. Citrus finished and this is a simple extra. Hello

I see that we continue with the same debates and the ones we have left hahahaha. the reality to know what people's expectations were when citrus+ started and what the current reality is, you just have to go to the first comments in this forum when citrus+ started. comments like, "I want to see them fuck" "I want to see more physical intimacy" "I don't want to see more dramas, just fun" "I don't want new random characters to appear to create unnecessary dramas" "I want to see harumatsu canon" "I want a more stable periodicity" etc... the reality today is that physical contact between mei and yuzu is scarce, we have had more dramas than fun, random characters have appeared to create dramas, the harumatsu today is dead and buried and the periodicity of the play has not improved at all. ........ . On the other hand, there are people who have a contrary opinion and it is very respectable, that they are loving the story as it goes and there are also many comments. Lastly, I understand that there are people who are very big fans of haruyuzu, honestly they would be a very good couple, but it is curious how after of the 6 vol of citrus+ plus the 10 of the original series for many people meiyuzu has not caught on, and in part it is because MEI's character development is inconsistent and many times It generates more rejection than empathy with her. greetings

In a tweet from Savoruota she has just announced that he has a special project for Mei and Yuzu for the arrival of their birthdays. be careful that perhaps the so famous hard between the two can arrive (I say it Joke) just because I have read people who believe that it could be that, although the reality can be anything. Yuzu's birthday is next week, so we'll know soon

the Periodicity of this story is certainly an unfathomable mystery

Oh, a lot of us would want to see them fuck! It's just not the root of the complaints and criticism of Citrus+. Or put another way, we'd like to see it but it's not a "demand". The demand is "some sign of affection? Any? Please?" Which the wordless special delivered better than the entire rest of the series.

That's why I put nobody in quotes. It can be made explicit, it can be made lighter, and it can even be implied without showing anything, but at this point what I want to see (at least) there are more scenes like this special. In my opinion the possible hard between yuzu and mei and the harumatsu are simple saboruota games to keep the reader with hype about the series . I hope I'm wrong, but at this point, If Sabu gives me a romantic dinner, some passionate kisses, more of his life as a couple, I'll settle for it...

I mean to be honest I wasn't expecting them to fuck
Maybe you know like kiss? Have they even done that in Citrus + so far?

She could have done it on the wedding night as a culmination of the story, without being explicit at all, simply showing a post-coital scene.but of course it would have left a very important element to play with in citrus+ (as it is doing) As you yourself have said and many more comments here (although some seem to not want to understand it) "no one" wants to see them fuck, we simply want them to act like what they are (a couple of lovers who are getting married)

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

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

https://x.com/ichijinshaevent/status/1799083812582051850

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.

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.

with MEI there is no longer a solution after 6 volumes. some will defend him it tooth and nail and for others it will continue to be an ice cube. no es que saboruota este haciendo mucho para que empaticemos con mei . . already It's been a while since citrus+ He left aside the Yuri and romance to become a manual How to succeed in Japanese work and business life .

Here I leave my last opinion this month. Reading some comments here and there, it seems that this story is about a boss and her employee, a rich girl and her maid, but no, what it should be being that it is a couple with its romantic component. Just give me a simple "5 page" chapter doing something romantic, a dinner, a walk, something. and as far as the secondary ones are concerned, give me Something else, I'm before not I was a big fan of harumatsu But now I recognize that it has great potential and that now I would give it more play in the story than than the main couple, but we all know that's not going to happen. Tell me more about Himeko, what happened With Shirapon, Sara and Nina,? get me more of Harumin's sister but in exchange I receive, well, new random characters, Sayaka and Miyabi, Kana and the friend and now the Japanese DiCaprio Leonardo Arata, Honestly, that they interest me very little or not at all. The future will tell how history continues, but prolonging this agony any longer will only make people abandon it. Greetings

No it's more like it's on the back burner for right now.

It’s been on the back burner for years.

Saburouta is pretty random in dropping threads or picking up pieces of the past (does anyone in-text even remember the existence of Sara and Nina Tachibana or Shirapon?).

So who knows? The Harumin/Matsuri arc could erupt at any moment or never be heard of again.

Let's be honest, the harumatsu "is dead and buried", he had his chance to develop it but he didn't want to or never had the intention to do it, Nothing can be developed when each volume barely coincides with two pages. In this story, the secondary characters are only supports for the main couple, they do not have a life of their own, they have Their bow and then disappear. Shirapon and Sara and Nina are the clear example, but not only them, you just have to see what Himeko has left in this story. Nothing can be developed if not You never take the focus off the main couple, But hey, let's not complain, in exchange we have a random character like Arata who has given him more prominence in a single volume than to himeko in 6 (so that I understand the sarcasm) is what it is. ¿Why should I care about him or what happens to his school? , that's why I'm disappointed because I don't care at all

It's good for Mei to close this chapter of her life before fully starting her life with Yuzu.

How does adding the running of an entirely different school to her current business agenda (you know, the one that's already so full that she is unable to celebrate Yuzu's birthday despite being in the next room from her) constitute Mei "closing this chapter of her life"?

If now, without being the president of the Aihara academy, she doesn't have time for Yuzu, when be president, imagine

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new ship Aratayuzu, what good chemistry between the two, they are very similar in their personalities and they understand each other perfectly. Excuse my delusions, but since the author has forgotten about the romance between Yuzu and Mei, I have to hold on to something and if nene can handle the harayuzu because I can't hahahaha and if anyone has complaints, I'll send them to my lawyer. I want to see romance, I'm interested in academies minus zero. greetings

without any spoiler. This chapter 35 should have been chapter 32, with that I say it all. My interest is getting lower every day, let's hope the story picks up a little more pace

Guys, I understand being worried about the series' future and the reasons for the sudden hiatus but it does no good to listen and then spread completely unfounded rumors that randos pull out of their collective asses, that will only harm the fandom and will easily snowball into something ugly.

Let's simply wait for either Sabu or YH to make an official statement about the future of the series.

Make no mistake What is really hurting the fandom is the lack of official information and that's why there are speculations . I don't think that neither yurihime nor savoruota magazine have the most Minimal complaint of citrus fandom, it is one of the least toxic and most patient fandoms in this entire manga world, it only asks for a little reciprocity. That being said we have a chapter next month And to enjoy. Greetings

The back page for the June issue has the usual Q&A session with all the mangaka, this time is about asking them whom do they admire most. I think all the mangaka gave their answers including those who replied "nobody". Saburouta simply was not listed and hence was missing at the Q&A session. I find that extremely strange since everyone just submitted a one or two sentences answers. So Sabu did not even do that, very strange indeed for someone who work in Yurihime for over 10 years. Health reason? Burned out? Artistic clash with the new chief editor? Going back moonlighting shoujo manga? Who knows.

Who knows, I recently read a comment on Twitter, where they said that perhaps those 6 months of break were to reflect and shore up all the fringes of history as a sign of entry into the arch. Final. It is very common among mangakas that when they are going to enter their final arc, they leave themselves a few months off beforehand to reflect, but everything is speculation, because neither sabu says anything, nor the Yurihime magazine neither .what you say about the question and answer session in the yurihime magazine perhaps I indicated other things. The truth is that it is certainly strange. the future will say

Well you guys can stop with the doom posting, Volume 6 has been scheduled for release on Jun 25th

https://twitter.com/yuri_navi/status/1776886744253858120

Since only four chapters are not collected is safe to assume we'll see new chapters starting this month or the next to complete the volume before it releases.

Oh boy, a Citrus+ release announcement—what a relief! Good thing they never turn out to be wrong.

Thank you for the information, and I apologize but since there were no chapters since October and since Yurihime magazine and the author herself did not release information, I did not know what was happening. what has been said, my Apologies, and this means that this month or at most the following month we will have a chapter. Thank you

Can someone explain why is Citrus not finished

Citrus is completed. This is Citrus +, which depicts events before the ending of Citrus.

Of course that's technically true, but Citrus+ continues the themes the characters and themes of the original series; I still think of it as "Citrus" too.

Since Citrus was one of the most popular and talked-about yuri series ever, it is rather surprising to see this in effect abandoned by the author (although maybe only temporarily).

abandoned? A few chapters ago someone posted a comment on this forum that Yurihime magazine must not have been very happy. perhaps it is the magazine itself that has said enough . It's all quite strange because they haven't even closed volume 6 to put it on sale. It's sad to say but citrus+ is nowhere near as popular as the original series and more and more people have gone abandoning it little by little. We'll see what happens in the future.

Are these a lot of assumptions or are there facts out there that suggest it's not doing well?

As far as I can tell, all we definitely know for sure is that there have been long delays between the appearance of Citrus+ chapters and obvious quality-control issues in some of the chapters that have appeared (such as un-inked and partially toned pages and goofs like a glass of soda apparently growing out of a character’s head).

Readers’ first inclinations were to speculate about Saburouta’s health, then to infer from fragments of evidence a fading degree of authorial interest, and now a potential problem with sales/popularity.

I do think it’s safe to say that Citrus+ isn’t helping with magazine sales when it isn’t in the magazine.

Definitely. But, as far as I know, the reasons for the delays aren't known. I was wondering if the previous person was just spreading assumptions or had actual evidence of bad sales or waning interest being the culprit. I'm not really interested in rumors--unless new info comes out, I'm fine leaving it with an "idk" and waiting. Guess we'll see.
I made it clear in a comment above, the only thing that is known was Savoruota's tweet in January where she said that "this year I wanted to try new things" What was she referring to? no idea. I did not say May it be due to poor sales, just quote a comment from this forum where it was said that the yurihime magazine should not be very happy with the drop in quality and to that I add that it does not have either Being happy with announcing chapters that then don't come out and last year it happened several times. And finally, what I said about citrus+ losing followers is unfortunately because of what I see in Forums like this and in others, where I see less activity every day, and I'm not referring to now that there are no chapters, for a long time, which doesn't mean anything, it's just a personal feeling.

Any new information when the story will go on like its been 5 months i wanna see canon harumin x matsuri

This month there is no chapter, and from what is announced in the yurihime magazine for next month neither. the only thing that is known is sabu's tweet from january saying "i wanted to try new things this year "What were you referring to? No idea. Everything is very strange. Is it on hiatus? Is it cancelled? No idea, there is no information. First of all, that Sabu is in good health and let's wait to see if there is any kind of information New.
