Candy Boy is a sweet, good natured slice of life romantic comedy. Right off the bat you should understand that this series revolves around yuri love and an incestuous relationship between fraternal twins. Even saying this though, there is really nothing to be offended about in regards to this series. While normally my creep-o-meter would be signaling its alarm bells, I actually really enjoyed Candy Boy.

The plot in Candy Boy is uncomplicated and revolves around twin sisters Kanade and Yukino and their high school life together. Unlike a lot of slice of life series, Candy Boy's episodes feel like they are read more

Candy☆Boy is a series that'll induce an "aww" feeling, given you accept two main premises-- one, it's f/f (shoujo ai). (Please refer to the warning spoiler below for the second premise.) It started off as a seven-minute ONA but I guess it fared well enough since we've got more episodes coming, now each being fourteen minutes long to boot.

Before we get into the review, I'd like to mention a major warning (that is fundamentally SPOILERish): This series has incestual vibes between fraternal twin sisters.

The additional episodes don't seem to push the sisterly relations between the two protagonists as much with the shift read more

Recommendations

They both have shoujo ai although Strawberry Panic is more yuri.
Candy Boy and Aoi Hana are anime that have yuri as central elements, yet unlike other anime of its genre, it is rather subtle and tastefully done.

What you have here are two atmospheric, carefully developed and understated anime about falling in love, being in love and developing relationships between girls whose bonds range from sisterly (in the literal sense, in Candy Boy's case) to romantic.

Each anime places significance in delivering excellent and likeable characters who drive their plots. Despite Candy Boy and Aoi Hana having some roots in romance, they are primarily slice of life anime that depict (at languid pace) the involving lives of the characters.

While the delivery of each anime is different (Candy Boy opts for a more comical and cute storytelling style; Aoi Hana's focus is on grace and realism), these two anime give us tales of girls who love other girls while gently handling their subject matters.
