Candy Boy Episode: EX01 - Mirai Yohouzu

We already had a prequel episode but here's an even more prequel one. It's a look at how the girls first got their dorm and decided sleeping in the same bed. The apartment they got for while they're at school is this real run down place that doesn't even look like a proper dorm and has a convenience store under it. The blonde sister cheers the other up and they go get ice cream. I liked the interaction between them for the most part. It was a cute little episode about making the best of what looked like a bad situation.

It's soured a bit by ... the weird incest and love triangle plot this story leads into, if this was just a short special in isolation I think it'd be great. So... 6/10 I guess

Informative Review.

This is Candy Boy at the *very beginning* of the entire series. It features both MCs Kanade and Yukino in their time exploring the area they reside in Tokyo and going over a little about the new life they will soon take on. For the most part, it functions as an average s.o.l should so I would use that as a means of determining whether or not you want to watch this. I personally found it good at that.

The art is high quality for its time, looks very good. OST isn't particularly memorable here.

I watched this in release order, and it didn't particularly hinder ... my experience as I watched episode 0 (the chronological sequel) before this. But I'd say watch it in chronological order as it paves a nice path for the series, but really you choose which way you want to go with this.
