Cute girls kissing and not much else. For some people I guess thats enough. When this anime first came out I was extremely excited. Being a fan of yuri and not having many good animes to satisfy Sakura Trick seemed like the first real big anime for the genre. Hoping for a fully fleshed out story with yuri seemed like a stretch and sadly we did not get that here but it seemed to make up for it in other aspects. So whats Sakura Trick got to offer? We follow Haruka and Yuus story how they handle their attraction to one another both emotionally and physically mostly physically and how they try and hide their relationship from their friends which theres no point to since everyone is kind of gay here. They are very sure about their feelings for one another no subtext here. They make this clear through dialogue and numerous romantic scenes and if youre a sucker like me it really does make you feel a little fuzzy inside. Althought its really sweet silly and maybe a little ridiculous at times it never truly goes anywhere. Typical slice of life but with lesbians. Very cutesy OST some of the tunes got stuck in my head. Most characters are likeable but the show focuses on Haruka and Yuu so dont worry if you like those two theyll be stealing the spotlight most of the time. Its got goofy moments heartwarming moments wtf moments and hot moments the whole shebang. Id say some of the scenes have rewatch quality but overall its just a sweet anime youll probably want to try at least once. However if the first two episodes dont interest you the rest wont. The show lets you know what its about right from the start. Pros: Pretty artstyle Good cutesy music Cute girls Kissing Cute girls kissing eachother Cons: As its a slice of life nothing major happens Things can seem repetitive at times My bias score: 7.5/10 Otherwise: 6/10 For a yuri anime its one of the best. Definitely something I recommend to a yuri fan.
