arghhhh kind of disappointed with the love triangle 'twist' but oh well what can you do! still loving this for what it is but really hope they don't drag it out between these three

You know yuri is a niche market....but i don't get why so many yuri manga have a love triangle when the people that like those are a niche audience in a niche audience, hell even het love triangle are not liked by many, why the fascination on them?

wait i forgot about wish fulfilment.

I am taking bets: Which drama comes next? Arranged marriage or one of them moves to the USA? No limits!

PS: I already know how this is going to end. We will see one real kiss on the last 2 pages and then bam. Manga ends. 20 chapters of drama for 2 pages of happiness.

That will be the biggest waste since i started reading naruto years ago and now cant stop because it is about to end

Yuri is moving forward which is why i get annoyed when i see plot elements from 90's yuri find their way into modern yuri

What? Lesbians that either die or marry a guy? You'd be lucky to have a series like this, generic shoujo tripe it may be, in the 90s. Yuri scholar my ass.

I'm not a fan of citrus, far from it, but I gotta ask the detractors here: It's chapter 9. Do you suck at pattern recognition this much not to figure out what this series is all about until now or are you just trying to make yourself look smarter by repeatedly pointing out the obvious? Because it's not working.

You obviously did not read much 90's yuri good sir, the big hits almost always ended in bs but there were hundreds that, while generic as hell ended with the two MC's getting together you sir need to do more research

Yes, the love triangle is one of the most cliche plot devices ever but it did NOT prevent me from spazzing at my computer and yelling out, "OOOOHHHH!!!" like Mordecai and Rigby from Regular Show.

I have to appreciate how honest the new character Matsuri is. I just can't handle the emotional fuckery Yuzu goes through because of Mei. (I can relate too much with Yuzu since I've had more than one account of girls pulling that type of shit with me)

Yeayeayea, Yuzu loves Mei but is it really worth all this anguish? But It's too much of a bittersweet feeling that I know too well. It's painful hearing words of rejection but you can't help but love the time you spend with the person you love.

Ugu. I'm done OTL

"honest" yep just like every other generic im a wrench in the gears seducer girl in yuri, i just dont like her atm, if she grows (and this love triangle bs dies down quickly) i might read more, otherwise? meh.

And homura is supposed to be the devil here?

Junko corrupted/instructed Madoka in the way of 'evil' and she in turn converted Homura?

Dude no, just no, i like yuri incest and all but......with junko? ugh i need to wash my brain

And yes i know it was a joke but, that image is just.....bleh

somebody please tell me what is nyan nyan...

In dragon quest terms "puff puff"

Ey girl, ya wanna puff puff my nyan nyan?
wink

A few hours later.....

"that will be 9000 gold"
Wait what?

The girl was actually a bunny girl, you lost all your gold

Worth it.

Well considering the bunny girl's designs in dragon quest 8 (which that and 9 are the only ones i completed).........yeah totally worth it......until you have to fight a boss and run out of potions XD

Now I'm not exactly a Yuri scholar but I've read a lot of it here and well, most Yuri is pretty generic: All-girls school, lonely MC than is smitted but a mysterious/genki classmate, drama, more drama, they finally get together and the series ends.

Citrus at least seems to be a long series and the character dynamics are interesting, the characters themselves are well defined and mainly are fun (when they're not angsting of course)

Which is why i don't read a lot of generic yuri, see yuri can have familiar settings without being generic (akuma no riddle is set in a school and one of the leads is genki yet that is far from a generic yuri anime.......at the moment anyway......plus it has the problem of trying to be a bit TOO edgy but never mind that!)

Plus as a actual scholar on yuri i can tell you now that what you said is not (completely) true, most yuri that did this was back in the days when yuri was young and people could not think up plots that didn't scream boring at your face, now the yuri like this are fewer in number (even ST that was called generic by a ton of people didn't do this as both girls could be described as energetic (haruka a little more so...also a lot more lewd) and did things quite differently)

SO
FUCKING
BORING
0/10 points for originality

That is a little harsh it gets a 7/10, good but could use work at least its a lot less gener-).......until this love triangle crap happened in which case 5/10 (Average for generic elements)

Oh btw,love triangles can also work.....when done less generically

NO a good character exists for more than just plot, they grow and feel alive, they are not just a plot tool they are a person

We've seen the character for just one chapter is way too soon to assure if will only be a plot tool. Take Mizu-chi or the Vice President, they've gotten character development since their first appearances.

I can understand if you don't like this series but you're jumping the gun dismissing every development like worthless and mere padding (it could be of course but we won't know for sure until the series is finished). Personally I like this series because the characters feel realistic, heck, I've known people just like Yuzu or Mei on school.

I'm basing this off the character i see, and believe me i have seen this character HUNDREDS of times, its the go to for yuri, hell even yaoi writers if they want to cause drama easily, the character RARELY (and i mean very rarely) becomes anything more than a wrench in the gears and is just sort of left ok with everything at the end of the series, sure there have been time where the wrench actually DID care for one of the MC's but staying nothing but a wrench still was there even if they had slightly legit motivations beyond "im gonna fool around so they can
A) get together (if the good type)
B) Split up (villain type)
C) I dont care i just want to fool around (Basic chaos type)
D) This was just a test by some cosmic power (this is more common than you think -_-)

It should be fine as long as it doesn't go as far as nyan nyan

I'm okay with full, pure and explicit nyan nyan action

Gonna need NSFW tags for that.

I'm on it!

I will find a fan doujin somewhere on here.....

Actually, I like this new girl much more than Mei. At least she is being sincere with her feelings.
I'd like if it was a romance between Yuzu and Matsuri, but, of course, this will never happen.

Did you not read the previous chapter?

All she wants is to get in the middle of couples and break them apart.

TBH i wasn't paying attention to that so she just went from generic yuri plot character to generic yuri villain character.....yay?

FOR DRAMA

When will yuri manga learn: drama is good......when it is set up, executed and handled well, otherwise it comes off as forced so readers will not get bored plus why the extra drama? there was already enough with the denial plot in the first place!
Ugh now im reminded of aoi hana's "lets go on a break because i just now have doubts about us for no reason!"

Sweet, new chapter.

I don't really see like unnecessary drama since Yuzu and Mei really have to work out their issues and I think than Matsuri will help to that (I still stand by my estatment of Mei's dad being an dick though), welp now to wait another two months for more.

Still creating a character just for plot purposes is a big NO for me

Adding new elements for the sake of prolonging it's own existence is how mangas lose their spark.
(For me this one never had a spark tho...)

Not trying to be an smartass but not every character is created for plot purposes?

Besides guys, we don't really now what is thinking the author to claim than Matsuri was a last moment addition to pad the story. I'd say that we just have to chill and keep reading.

Pretty much, and the reason i say she is a plot character is because she is EXACTLY THE SAME as every other yuri plot character used to create drama ever:

things are going at a steady (but slow) pace for 2 leads "better seduce one of them causing drama!
One of them doesn't want to admit their feelings "Better kiss the other mc right in front of the denial one because drama"
I was secretly helping the mc's all along, you all like me now right?

she is just so generic >.<

This series just gets funnier and funnier, it's one of those series that would spoil it if they got together,,, not to mention the moral implications

Screw the morals, this is yuri!
