Citrusplus Stories

The story of a beautiful day thirteen years after Yuzu chose to give up on Mei and the heiress ended up in the wrong adventure of an arranged marriage and becoming Aihara Chairman.

Citrus Minus here, I wanted to write a story that focuses on Harumi Taniguchi and what might things be like from her perspective. To me, Harumi has always been portrayed as a self-confident person who really values her friendship with Yuzu. Putting the emphasis on Harumi and telling a story from her perspective, I imagined she might actually be a lot more contemplative and introspective underneath. This story takes place parallel to the Citrus+ timeline, from late September through the end of October. At the time of writing, 'August 14th' is the most recent Citrus+ chapter. In "Harumi Taniguchi and her most important friend", the Aihara Academy student council are working on plans to do something fun for the students, finally. Somehow Yuzu has convinced Mei to have the school host a Halloween festival and, in doing so, begins working alongside the student council. Meanwhile, Harumi finds herself at a loss without her best friend around so much. What does the newly busy Yuzu who can't make time for Harumi, mean for the two's friendship? Can the hard-lined Aihara student council really pull off such an event for the school? To find out, please enjoy this story that has Harumi as our star!! Part 1, released NOW! Stay tuned for the rest!

->Epilogue coming soon<- When Yuzu decides to wear sexy underwear to school, this doesn't escape Mei's notice and the student council President struggles with how to best approach the situation... leading to a couple fun incidents and Mei's wild thoughts! A short story of Mei struggling with thoughts of Yuzu's panties swirling around her head all day. Wanted to write something that contrasts the stoic and unreadable Mei with the idea that, in her head, she is consumed by lewd thoughts and what it might be like for her to deal with the problem it causes her. This story takes place sometime in early July in the Citrus+ canon, post the Sayaka bust-up with Yuzu incident.

Mei can't help but feel that she isn't worth Yuzu's efforts, they should go towards someone who can reciprocate them back, someone like her best friend.

Matsuri is back to her old tricks, following Harumi around after school and, in an attempt to get rid of her, Harumi makes a bet with Matsuri - but is it a bet that Matsuri stands any chance of winning? A Citrus fan-fiction short story of Harumi growing a little more affectionate to Matsuri and happy to have her around. A piece inspired as a joint collaboration with @akame_art_ on twitter who drew the amazing Matsuri art <333

A long form Citrus/Citrus+ fanfiction that aims to cover various stories from different points in time, different characters and surprising developments for the cast of Citrus. There will be drama. There will be laughs. There will be developing relationships... but will Mei and Yuzu finally reach the next stage? Opening with a story of Mei and Yuzu's early university days, we follow Mei's point of view as she faces a whole new experience: Not being the top dog. Without the protection of Aihara Academy and the assured social status that brings, Mei finds herself feeling exposed, having to navigate social situations many people take for granted. This first features mainly Mei's POV. I've done my best to write Mei as I see her, being someone who is quietly very contemplative inwardly, all so she give short and to the point answers. Being somewhat uncomfortable with conversations, I imagine she might have a lot of personal challenges and I wanted to draw them out. Will Mei be able to make friends without incident? Do the members of the Aihara board of directors still have a ship on their shoulder for "The Heretical Witch"? Is Yuzu a serious student who can continue to dedicate herself to her studies for the sake of love? Well, you'll just have to read and find out! (Parts of this story have been planned and brainstorm way ahead of time. If the chapters of Citrus+, post July 2025, contradict anything written herein, just go with it lol!)
