Introduction

Sakura Trick (Japanese: 桜Trick, Hepburn: Sakura Torikku) is a Japanese yuri manga series written and illustrated by Tachi. The four-panel manga was serialized in Houbunsha's seinen manga magazine Manga Time Kirara Miracle! from March 2011 to August 2017, with its chapters collected in eight tankōbon volumes. The series follows Haruka Takayama and Yū Sonoda, two girls who decide to make their relationship special by kissing each other in secret.

A 12-episode anime television series adaptation directed by Kenichi Ishikura and produced by Studio Deen aired between January and March 2014. For the adaptation, Ishikura focused on depicting the kissing scenes with particular detail, as well as keeping tight pacing in line with the original four-panel manga. He also evaluated the voice actors' performances and ability to portray character pairings, and had the opening and ending theme songs feature character imagery based on the lyrics.

Critics generally praised the anime adaptation's characters and production value. The show's representation of lesbian relationships, visual portrayal of its characters, and overall story received more mixed reviews.
