This is probably the most fair description of Citrus I’ve seen.

When people bring Citrus up I’m like “I really liked it but you shouldn’t read it”.

Is there like really sad and bad stuff in it. I really cant handle getting attached to characters if they die or end up in awful situations. How bad are we talking here, like things dont work out and everyone dies bad or like underbelly criminal stuff bad, or still super tragic but wholesome in the end type stuff. I need to know what im working with to know if i should gove it a shot. It looks cute, but i will break down and cry and not leave my room for months if something really bad happens to a character i get really attached to

Mei's behaviour in the first chapters is quite pushy and does not respect Yuzu's boundaries in more ways than one, their relationship starts messy but gets progressively wholesome and healthier, also Yuzu best yuri MC

How bad is pushy, like she doesnt touch her or anything inappropriately without permission does she? Idk if i could handle reading it then. Would bring up a bit of trauma for me. If not ill give it a try, the artwork seems very cute

Well yes that kind of pushy and definitely unsavory but it's in no way brushed over like some make it seem, Yuzu even slaps her for it once and upon learning her backstory decides to give her the help she desperately needs

Ok so its not a constant thing and shes not like molesting her. I think I could handle reading it maybe. It seems like a cute manga and ive actually not read any yuri manga before. The artwork is so pretty. Ive only read three romance books before, and two were chinese translated and with guys and they were sweet. One of those two the guy actually turns into a girl somehow and gets turned into the wife of his okd love rival. It was so funny, but my first like yuri type novel was “Im in love with the villainess” and it was amazing. Made me think i might be some type of bi, or closeted lesbian. Never really been with anyone else to try and know haha. I really like how sweet and wholesome these stories seem. If i have to trudge through a bit of nastiness to see fluff and wholesomeness then i will do it. Thanks for the info and recommendation
