History Characters / Citrus

* ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections: She's able to go to her school while ditching the uniform, completely ignoring the school's culture and rules and trash-talking teachers and authority figures because her grandfather-in-law is the Chairman. She doesn't even realize that she's pulling this off until it's explained to her.

* AloofDarkHairedGirl: Dark hair? Check. Aloof? Boy, is she ever. Somewhat {{subverted|Trope}}, as it becomes increasing clear that her aloofness is more of a front, and that she's actually quite emotionally fragile.

* EmotionallyTongueTied: Finds it ''very'' difficult to express her true feelings.

* DeadpanSnarker: She's ''really'' good at the deadpan part, and given her [[TheStoic stoic]] and slightly weird personality, it's hard to tell when she's serious and when she's insulting Yuzu.

* ManipulativeBitch:

* TheTrickster: Loves testing the stepsisters' relationship.

[[folder: Yuzu Aihara]]

* {{Adorkable}}: With her cheerfulness, friendliness, and hopeless romantic tendencies, it's hard not to see Yuzu as this.

[[folder: Mei Aihara]]

* {{Adorkable}}: Surprisingly, she can be this, though it's much more subtle. It's implied that she tends to tuck Ansoniko into a makeshift bed before she sleeps. [[spoiler:And, when she starts dating Yuzu, she follows Yuzu's dating guidebook to the T because she genuinely has no idea how to approach a relationship.]]

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Her first scene, as mentioned in BitchInSheepsClothing, showcases her manipulative nature. Shortly afterward, she expresses a desire to check in on Yuzu, establishing their close friendship and the other main aspect of Matsuri's character.

* ShipTease: Chapter 13.5 starts a series of ship tease between her and Harumin. This is even more blatantly in one of the anthology side chapters. When all of the girls are hanging out and studying, she asks what the others would want their crush to do if they could make them do anything. She then more or less ignores Himeko, Shirho, and Nene's answers while taking a great deal of interest in Harumin's. She then expresses disappointment when the latter said she doesn't have anyone she's interested in. She also encourages her to think more seriously about looking for someone to love.

* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: In ''Citrus Plus'' Himeko mentions that while she is jealous, she accepts Yuzu as Mei's lover because she wants Mei to be happy.

* {{Gayngst}}: Not at first. While she does become very confused by her feelings, it's not until after [[spoiler:she and Mei start dating]] that she realizes that her feelings might be ridiculed by others. Mei convinces her that she should love who she wants.

* GyaruGirl: Yuzu's gyaru lifestyle immediately puts her at odds with Mei.

* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: There really doesn't seem to be anyone who isn't attracted to Mei, which is probably why she is so cold towards people since she doesn't know anyone who doesn't want to have sex with her.
