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!
