When Hitohira came out, I automatically filed it under the "lesbian trash" tab, but the review text at Bluemist does not have a peep about the issue. Not a word. Just the praise for "very lovable and relatable characters", "well told story" that sum up to "wonderful little anime" and "heartwarming series" (and a ton of spoilers). Three screencaps in compromising positions are included, so perhaps it's some kind of Saki of old.
UPDATE in a couple of hours:
<bluemist> zaitcev: i wish i put in the yuri undertones on the review <bluemist> maybe i didn't mind it too much <bluemist> the yuri thing about it is like there is just "one more spoken line" before this or that event becomes girl-on-girl rape <bluemist> unfortunately, such conversation would always be interrupted, so they never get it on <bluemist> lol
