Weird humor, not feeling it.

I agree. It's a bit niche isn't it.

The Gundam bits were fun but the getting drunk of Namaiki beer was stupid.

I actually don't know how to think of it, maybe I have to let it sink in first ^^"
The product placement and advertisement for sweets gets more and more obvious, not that I matter tho, since it's an Anime about sweets ^^"
The part with the "backstory" of that whistle-candy was kinda weird but in a fun, silly way. And the war of the candy also was fun x3
But I have to admit I found myself still looking at the time now and then because the Anime felt a bit long. Maybe it gets more "deep" with the time but right now something is still missing for me. I don't know what.
It's fun and nice to look at, but something is missing for me
3/5

The Gundam parody is probably the only thing that even managed to get a smile out me.

Meh, might just not be my type of humour, I guess.

The type of comedy of the series, more than make me laugh, amuse me very much. It's not a series who makes me laugh to death, but Hotaru's antic and the series's tone overall entertain me much.

Very hard to choose between Hotaru and Saya, really.

Apart from the scene where Hotaru got drunk, I didn't really think anything in this episode was very funny. I suspect the show's humor is just not for me, but I'll give it at least another episode to win me over.

Well this was super entertaining. I loved almost every minute of it. Just an all around fun show so far, and I like both of the female characters a lot. The humor reminds me of some moments of Gintama especially Katsura and his stories, and Hotaro's.

Nice, slow episode. I have zero knowledge of japanese candy so some of the comedy bits featuring those sweets didn't elicit much of an reaction from me. Hotaru's antics did amused me seeing how she got drunk from a non-alcoholic drink and her exaggerated movements. 3/5

"Do you want to become an adult with me?"

HELL YES ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

OK, now it's definitely comedy of season. Wonderful art (one of the best of this season, or maybe the best), great characters and funny humor. Thank you Feel (and Mori for great translation).
BTW, K-On on one of their cards? ^^
Edit, yeah, definitely, Ritsu and Azusa

I actually know the card flipping game i use to play it when i was little but unlike the cards shown in the anime we use circle cards we call it Pogs

W played at school with Pokemon "tazo" (I don't know if other countries had something similar), when I was in primary school (15 years ago :D)

Oh the good times. I remember the Giant ones, and how some of them had very incorrect Type-Advantage relationship (like Jynx being referred as effective against Poison-Type but through her ICE-Type '-').

Anyway this was a fun episode. Interesting how this series is so calm about its setting yet manages to deliver. I cannot imagine how more you can develop things in this setting so I'll leave it to the story to surprise me.

Hotaru is an incredibly amazing girl. Her eccentric personality sells, not to mention she is quite sexy too. I like her a lot. Saya-chan is nice too, but Hotaru manages to steal the spotlight by virtue of being "herself".

Are those K-On parody on the menko cards? at first I thought "lol Hotaru was holding an Azunyan card arguing with Ritsu". The uniform is similar.

I also found those wrapped candy joshi kousei really cute for some reason XD

Didn't like her as Jessica in the new Dragon Quest game either, come to think of it. Probably down to her voice just not being what I imagined for both characters. Don't think it matches an erotic character I guess.


Uhh.. Kiss x Sis? Okusama ga Seitokaichou? granted she may not be that fitting for Jessica (I don't know, I've never played the Japanese version of DQ) but I think Ayana fits Hotaru just fine. She at least managed to capture the craziness.

The comedy is a bit slower paced, which I appreciate. I chuckled a lot throughout the episode, and laughed about twice. Hotaru is stupid, ridiculous, and amazing. Love her to death. I though Saya was a lot better in episode 1, but that's just me.

Overall, I enjoyed it a lot. I noticed that people are saying that they didn't really laugh, and while the jokes didn't all have me laughing out loud, none of them really fell flat either. Plus it was entertaining, and pretty much worth it for Drunk Hotaru.
Anime sucks.

This was a pretty dang hilarious episode, It really had me laughing from the start to finish. Hotaru really is a big contender for that #1 girl of the season right now because she is just so funny, from the breast scene to the do you want to become an adult with me, it will be raw but safe then to her being drunk just had me laughing really hard. They also give us some Saya with the menko part which was also pretty funny to see their reactions to her doing so good for her first time. I honestly cannot wait to see how they continue to entertain us with this comedy and if it will continue to stay funny.

Here is my full review on the episode:

Episode 2
Lol this is just so stupid. "Left Hand of God" lol. Hotaru didn't know about this secret move. The comedy hit all the right points. Hotaru is damn crazy (and sekushi) and makes every situation hilarious. She had some pretty cool stories.

Coconuts just got another enemy as Saya wants him to takeover the shop otherwise he will then eventually go away to another place for his manga leaving her as she would still have to tend to her coffee shop.

This stuff is just too funny, man. Brilliant stuff.

I now know more about candy than I used to. And card throwing techniques.

Kind of reminds me of Himouto crossed with Food Wars. Just not as good as either.

Now I miss Himouto. SHE knew how to eat her junk food!

Ayy, ramune whistle candy were the shit when I was a kid XD Aside from being nostalgic at some of these candies (like the hard fruit candies in a can that Hotaru had last episode but showed up for only a few seconds), I find the comedy alright. I don't think it's my type of humor, although the last segment did get a few laughs out of me. Kokonotsu and Hotaru's faces at Saya's natural skills were pretty funny. I'll give it an episode or two to see if this is a keeper. I agree that this is sort of niche anime, and I can see how people find this funny. Maybe I'm just tired.

The more I watch this show, the more I feel like this is the kid-friendly version of Prison School.

Saya's cute. This feels a little like Non Non Biyori with heavy emphasis on the candy store. Not as relaxing, but really educational in a way to learn all about dagashi and the old days.
3.5/5 for this episode.

candy colony drop


The only appeal of the episode for me, except for the usual introduction of the candies of the week.

Two questions:
- what were all the Gundam references? (I noticed only two)
- is the sweets history accurate?

I feel like watching a candy publicity

Isn't the idea of the manga to introduce all those products through a bunch of comedic/fan-service elements?

Hmm, the first part was average, but I really liked the second bit with the card flipping game. Plus Saya is just plain adorable haha

I remember collecting and playing that game with the small round discs that were in bags of chips back in the day, as someone else mentioned. Had Pokemon and Looney Tunes images on them. Great stuff ^^
