Citrus, Vol. 1 by Saburouta
3.0

What's better than Lesbian lovers? Lesbian sister lovers! Well, they're step-sisters. Japan ain't game of thrones everything quite yet.

Okay so this outspoken girl, Yuzu, is all about being cool and trying to be popular and of course dating boys! That is until she finds out a classmate, Mei, becomes a step sister because Yuzu's mom remarries and now they live together. But hey, it doesn't stop there. When Yuzu catches Mei making out with a teacher she plays a little game of "I'ma tell everyone" but mei jumps up and gives Yuzu her first kiss. This is when Yuzu begins to experience feelings for girls!

Good: Art is pretty solid. It bounces back and forth between funny comedic bits and some more emotional moments. I was actually surprised how much a series like this tried to build on relationship part of things and showed how important family is instead of being pure fan service.

Bad: Saying that, the plot is okay at best. I mean, this is a series about two sisters falling in love. Things happen, way over the top, and then of course all gets settled quickly because, well girls like girls, and they are sisters, and we need to see them make out more.

Overall this is a fun little series. I think I'ma keep going. No, not just because it has Lesbian sisters. I think the characters are interesting enough and the comedy is pretty solid. I'm hoping this series builds up to a stronger story, I think it could actually talk about important subjects like rape and sexuality. Let's see! A 3 out of 5 for now.
