I did not find anything wrong in your log file. Please wait for a human moderator to assist.

Are you loading any save state? Try just get to the character selection screen normally if you are.

I’m not loading any states I’m just loading regularly

Try delete the shader cache:

  1. File -> Open Citra Folder
  2. Close Citra
  3. Delete shaders folder
