Enjoyable first episode, liked it quite a bit.

I've taken a look at the manga and saw that the chapters are only like 8 to 10 pages. I assume since the episodes are full length that there's going to be a lot of anime original material added in.

Probably one of the weaker starts I have seen so far for this new season, but having not seen many that means this is still pretty good. Seems like it's going to take some getting used to all of the comedy, as some of it wasn't really funny while other bits kinda went over my head. Still, there's definitely potential here.

I quite like the OP as well.

Enjoyable, comedy was rather meh but it was decent.

Anyone else prefer Hotaru in those casual clothes? Took a bit to get used to the art, the eyes are a bit weird but other then that the arts pretty good.

Oh boy it's finally here...I follow the manga and now this.
Still funny and weird just like the manga.
Hotaru and Saya...the both of them are so cute, especially Saya with her tsundere personality.
OP and ED are good IMO.

Hotaru is quite the quirky character, her naturally ability to draw in retorts :)

The comedy is pretty good though. This anime is going to be a sugary one!

Apparently yelling and being eccentric is the pinnacle of comedy in anime now. Couldn't this have been a cozy anime about a candy shop without any loud, predictable romcom antics like I wanted it to be so badly?

Probably watching a couple more episodes and then dropping, even if I like the main girl quite a bit. As much as I hate to admit it I do like the flavor of the month girl a bit, despite Hestia also being flavor of the month girl at one point. The writing itself just puts me off entirely.

Very enjoyable first episode.

The comedy was on point and anime is not lacking in any other aspects.

What's more, even though romance probably won't be the main aspect of this show, the secondary heroine is by no means worse than the main one, which is also a good thing. (in my opinion even better)

I really hope the girls stay friends. Any kind of rivalry between them would ruin the show for me. I just want cozy slice-of-life shows with little or no drama.

Really liking this so far. Saya is so cute! I didn't know anything about this beforehand and went into it thinking Hotaru was the one wanting to be a manga author and Saya coming to pick her up (I only looked at the picture and Kokonotsu is so far away, lol), so that was a surprise.

i can't help but laugh so hard when i saw his face and hear his voice at the same time XD XD. funny combination with the face and the voice.
and, i still can't get enough with the female main character, the purple hair girl.
let's forget about Mai from Myriad Colors Phantom World is a best girl of the season. the main character of this anime (dagashi kashi), the purple hair girl, she is the best girl of the season :D.

Decent episode. First half, the comedy felt kind of flat to me but at least Hotaru's expressions made me chuckle a little bit. Second half, a lot better, as it introduces Saya, and more Hotaru's antics.

A nice introduction to the characters so far but the humor is a hit-and-miss so I hope the next few episodes improve on this aspect. 4/5

I second this, hoping it won't degenarate into the usual formulaic approach.

Didn't expect Hotaru to have that personality after seeing her character design. Completely opposite of expectations.
This appears to be 95% comedic moments, and 5% serious. Hopefully it swings more toward the serious side as things progress.

That was just bullshit filler. The studio seem to think they have as good a sense of humor as Kotoyama, which they don't. Time they wasted on that they should have spent of the creepy back muscle scene.

Never. Most Likely. It's an episodic gag series, nothing more (what I love about it though).

Although I would not go so far, I do hope they keep the filler scenes to a minimum, especially when there are perfectly fine comedic panels from the manga that were not animated. (I was pretty disappointed when Hotaru did not transform to that super-deformed boss character during her speech).

Well this was fun, but nothing overly outstanding yet still fun.

Hotaru is quite an interesting girl, and I may watch a bit more. The characters are ok. Overall this didn't do much as far as impressions go, then again that can happen a lot in slice of life so. while it was fun it was nothing superb at least for now.

Nevertheless I was entertained.

PS: Hotaru is pretty darn sexy D:

You should just leave if you want some serious moment.
Like someone said it's pretty much an episodic gag serie.

Well, I was quite curious how it'd be done by Feel. They kinda showed how great the quality (espesially graphics part) can be with OreGairu. Zoku.

Gotta admit, this one didn't impress me as much in that regard. It's good, no more. But fuck the picture, it'll always become old in a few years. Music was fine, nothing stood out. Seiyuu are good, same as you would expect to hear (although Kokonotsu's voice is too childish, imo).

And the best thing is adaptation itself. Half a year ago I gave Feel 10 (now it's 9, though) for such a wonderful adaptation of OreGairu. Dagashi Kashi (at least for the first episode) been fairly well adapted. It's animated manga, which it should be. Been wondering how the're gonna split up the story, but it's good. Oh, and thank god they'd been able to save mangaka's art style, his eye drawing is really catchy... And Feel censured the manga a bit. Don't know why, but they did it. Not that it changes the image.

Let's see how it'll go.

That was a funny episode, I am glad I checked it out and I am going to stick with this series. I know the purple hair girl is one of the leads, who is the other lead, the manga artist guy or the other girl. I thought it was the guy, but when it ended up them being room mates, that kind of changes the possibilities on who is the number 2 character here.

Damn this was pretty.... Normal.

This was a nice first episode. Not the best (like Boku dake ga Inai Machi), but I really liked it.

Really like Hotaru. I thought she was going to be crazy base on her character design, but she is just a fun girl. I also like Saya. Thought the same, but she is pretty normal. Although the coffee scene had my eyebrow raise for a sec. The MC is pretty okay too.

Looking forward to more episode. Seems like a laid back and funny show.

I must say, that was a decent ep. Voice actors really did they job very well. Keep going that way. I guess this will be nice comedy show for me. With moooooar
Hotaru-chan^^
PS: Reading comic I wonder how she can eat so many candy's and don't get fat? The answer is so obvious. Boobs. All this sugar went to the boobs. Yatta to the 2D world^^

well this was a nice surprise. I was expecting something that was driven by Hotaru's eccentricity and was otherwise dull, but looks like I was wrong. I really love the atmosphere. Something about rural Japanese settings really appeals to me. The characters are generic sans Hotaru, but they are likeable. Quite interested in seeing how this develops.
