Episode 1 wise, from what I watched, it's the best so far. Reminds me a lot of Non Non Byori. The characters seem interesting and the art is well done. Definitely will continue watching this through the rest of the season.

Made me giggle a bunch of times, as long as Hotaru's silly behavior isn't used as the ground for every joke in the show then I'm in, even if it were I'd still stick to the show just for Keiji Fujiwara.

Saya a best.

Dagashi Kashi Episode 1 Thoughts

So I'm having trouble how I should handle this episode.
I'm indifferent on it, not because it is bad, but because it wasn't what I expected.
I was expecting Hotaru Shidare to be more Tsundereish but instead she is just and candy/junkfood airhead. I think I like her better this way.
Is it funny? Yes
Is it Entertaining? Yes
Is it WTF Comedy? That is to be seen.

If it can land into my WTF comedy sub-category of comedy than maybe this show will be good if not than it will end up being average-above average.

Certainly nothing ground-breakingly new and unique, but I like it so far. Each of the characters seem entertaining, and I definitely see myself at least enjoying this one all the way through.

I'm loving every minute of this show. Kokonotsu and Hotaru have great chemistry and I found myself smiling quite a lot. It is very entertaining. If I had to rate the first ep critically i'd say about a 6 or 7. However, if I rated it based on personal enjoyment alone it would get a 9 or 10. Loving this show so far.

I feel like the show is starting to become monotonous to me.
The characters just aren't that strong in the show and when you don't know the snacks that they are eating. What is the factor that draws you into the show? The occasional lewd scene like when they cooked the ramen in the shop?

I did like the bringing in Youtube in the last episode.
A lot of people do review food on youtube and get to over a million subscribers.
and...like most, acting completely fangasmic like JonTron usually what gets you to the top. Kokonotsu got more views than his dad in one video XD.

Same with me, this show doesn't really shine much apart from Hotaru and Saya. The story is literally them talking about different snacks which turns out to not be very interesting at all XD.

Yep I dropped the show.
I honestly think this show would of been better as a short.
I can only be so entertained by the premise.

Peeps got hyped cause Hotaru was "Hot"aru but then realized it was a episodic and stale comedy bout eatin japanese sweet.
It basically relies on nostalgia to cover the weak jokes. and it's pretty mediocre.

Mi two cents peace immout

Just finished the show.

Generally it is very informative and good to relax to, but if you are not interested in Dagashi at all it´s basically impossible to enjoy so it is not an anime for everyone.

I like how they didn´t feel the need to force some supporting characters into this. Just the 5 of them was perfect for this anime. The ending was really unsatisfying. Saya and To were just left behind in the café and that´s it, they deserved a better farewell then this.

Also the ending is as open as it gets which is kind of boring in this case as there will not be asecond season for sure right?

It was really lackluster, I was expecting too much past episode 1.

Wish I could have thoroughly enjoyed the snack jokes/references more than I did.

Felt really dissatisfied in the Character development, It had an interesting premise and felt that it didn't meet up with most standards of viewers.

Deuce.

Started it because of Hotaru, but couldn't stand how nothing was happening, had to drop it.
