I wandered into this anime while looking for a new Shoujo Ai to read. What I got was unexpected gentle and sweet.

Lemonade isn't your typical shoujo ai romance. In many ways it feels like a "slice of life" anime, yet it focuses almost entirely on the character development. It does not get hung up on side plots or trivial characters. You see world from Youko's point of view. You listen to her thoughts and reactions and often times have the same reaction.

The artwork and charcter styles are simple. However, the artists does a great job at conveying emotions. The backdrops are simple, but again this manga focuses heavily on the characters.

I enjoyed it and although it was relatively short I felt it was completed well.
