Very erotic! The butt fondle during at the school gates was just so HAWT. Than a kiss so early! Hope it's not another NTR: Netsuzou Trap trash anime.

You might want to try a couple more episodes. The first ep doesn't offer a very good representation of what the series is actually like.

[alex_drian]

The OP is excellent and for now the animation too, but I don't think that the adaptation is for me. You see, I have a very very low tolerance of the drama. I can't stand on a certain level of drama, for that I don't go near of NTR before, even if I'm yurifan. Oh, is a good story, but not for me, not in anime at least. I think that the most is Mei fault but never mind. Pass on this one.

Was it the creepy teacher making out with a student part? Cause other than that, which also gave me slight Kuzu no Honaki, I didn't find this dark.

Let's see. We have Mei abandoned by her father (what happened to her mom?) in the "care" of her grandfather, who in turn put her in the hands of a sexual predator. Because of it, she also becomes a predator, whom Yuzu has to live with. In the same room, even.

So, yeah, pretty dark.

[MeoTwister5]

Well that escalated quickly!

She clearly shows signs of emotional and possible sexual abuse, and looks like expected psychological problems with it.

Mei isn't a predator. She's just very awkward and has troubles expressing her feelings because of her upbringing. She clearly didn't enjoy being kissed by the teacher, so when Yuzu lightly brought up the subject, she got angry and forcefully kissed her so she would know what it felt like.

All the relevant girls are gay btw.

"She sexually assaulted someone but she didn't mean it like that" doesn't really make it better. Hell, the "it's just a joke" defense could be described like that.

[FlareKnight]

That girl may not be a predator (not sure at this point), but she isn't much better or far off from becoming one. The bullied or the abused becoming a bully or abuser isn't really an improvement. It becomes an unfortunate ladder of misery.

She'll assault someone if lightly provoked. That is dangerous.

Originally, yuri is the one of genres of literature among girls. It's must be the culture of girls, by tthe girls, for the girls. (I'm yuri fundamentalist)
Simply because, otherwise, it is filthy soft lesbian porn for otaku just like Strawberry Panic, Non Non Biyori or something other trashes.
So I think male shouldn't interfere in this culture. Watch it secretaly. Do not touch to the research object. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

btw I think it is not lesbianism always but "yuri" is argot because maybe they think it is a secretly/subtlety feelings of border lesbianism between adolescent girls.
That's why, this is the secretly culture, even in this SNS era.

I'd heard good things about this series, but I'm having a couple issues so far. One is the whole consent issue. The other is that many years ago I watched Girl's High, a rather crude anime based on a manga whose creator actually attended an all girl's school. As such I have a bit of a difficult time taking the prim and proper demeanour of the general student body in this series seriously.

[darkchibi07]

Man, since I was following the manga from the beginning, I didn't realize a few major events that spanned in 2 chapters all happened in episode 2. I'd imagined it can be a little overwhelming for first time viewers.

Though I will say, this anime adaptation is continuing to make Yuzu's and Mei's character really pop out more than I imagined. That entire scene in Mei's bedroom was quite something.

[scififan]

Haven't read the manga.
Decide to watch anime due to gorgeous character design.

TSo far is Yuzu is an outgoing girl who looks forward for love life. She stumbles on Mei who grows up in a suffocating environment. Mei's father is a traveling business person. He met Yuzu's mother, a convenient store staff(?) Due to her childish good nature, Mei's father entrusts Mei to Yuzu's mother(?)

Yuzu and Mei's interaction shows, each time Mei is verbally cornered by Yuzu, Mei becomes aggresive toward Yuzu. Even in public, Mei's hands run all over Yuzu's every part.

The show's main bad guy is the teacher, who was engaged to Yuzu(?) Afterward, the main bad guy is Yuzu's grandfather who looks like Japanese Colonel Sanders.

[Kismet-chan]

My understanding is that Mei's non-consensual sexual harassment of Yuzu is an on-going thing in this... and I'm not sure if that sits well with me. It would've been one thing if Mei was just socially ignorant and liked Yuzu from the start, but didn't understand why it wasn't okay. But here, she's completely cognizant and she's using it as a form of manipulation. That honestly makes Mei just as bad or even worse than whoever is manipulating her (the grandfather and/or the teacher).

So, uh... Yeah. Kind of gross, tbh.

[germanturkey]

it's been faithful to the source so far, so i can't complain much. Yuzu is a bit of an idiot this episode. thinking she can do more than she actually can. that type of character always irritates me, so she doesn't win any points this episode. Haru on the other hand... awesome.

[darkchibi07]

Oh Mei, she such a tease at bed in episode 3! The one thing I have to appreciate is how this series doesn't fuss around whether Yuzu is in love with Mei or not.

Interestingly to note, they added the other sisters in the OP sequence.

[Kanon]

The mother brought a king sized bed instead of two single beds. Is she secretly shipping them?

Mei was stone cold to Yuzu, but I think it's because she really wants a family (wouldn't have gone back to them if she didn't care) and is afraid everything would be ruined if she let things progress further.

[darkchibi07]

I'd imagine it's cheaper to buy one huge bed than 2 smaller sized beds.

[Psyco Diver]

Sooo now yuri rape, I was kinda hoping the show would be a little sweeter but I guess this is going to be the usual trashy drama, not complaining but I was hoping for something a little different
