Have you ever read manga where there's this extremely tragic f/f love story that either ends up with one or both girls dead, or one girl decides she isn't going to stay in the relationship?
Well, Candy☆Boy is the complete opposite. It's a short ONA that doesn't even last eight minutes long, but it's really sweet and the ending leaves you with a heartwarming feeling.
As a bonus, if you haven't noticed yet, Nabatame Hitomi voices one of the main characters. And if you don't know she's practically seen as the queen bee of yuri* seiyuu... well.
*My usage of "yuri" does not connote anything sexual or pornographic in nature, hence my preference to use "f/f" to mean "shoujo ai" or "yuri".
The ratings to the left are as objective as I can put them; your perception and take of the premise will, of course, greatly influence your actual enjoyment or lack thereof.

Major warning (and fundamentally slightly SPOILERish):
For those who don't like watching anime with sisterly incest-- then this is not for you.
The bottom line is, if you like f/f and don't mind twincest, then this is a must-see.
In any case, you only have to commit seven minutes and thirty-nine seconds of your life to see if it's a suitable assessment, should it have piqued your interest.

EDIT: The DVD version's now out, and it's got an additional scene. The cuteness-- well, heck, it's off the scale. The total length should be around ten minutes for the DVD version. Most of the additional length is actually the ED, though. The scene in question lasts less than a minute but it's definitely worth the trouble looking for, as long as you heed the warning from above regarding the nature of the relationship. For those who are a bit more touchy about this and could just barely stand the ONA, don't watch the additional scene. It gives the relationship a bit more "definiteness" while still remaining tame. read more

Gosh, what an unfabulous short pointless anime this is.
I was waiting for it to even start and nothing happened. What a waste of ten minutes of my life.
The story is about incestuous twin sisters. I don't know about you, but I don't like that sort of thing. You might wonder why I watched it, then. It's because I heard there was going to be yuri action (which there wasn't) and I heard that it's cool (which is wasn't...unless you have a crush on your twin sister and this anime totally gets it), and also, nobody bothered to tell me it was about incest.
The art was mediocre, the sound was...wait, was there any sound?? I can't recall the BGM. The characters are bland as well. There's nothing special about them. They cry a lot. They mope a lot. Okay, all lesbians are mopey and cryful, wonderful.
I finished this wanting to know why I wasted my utterly fabulous time on it. read more
