Those Gundam references! Colony drop rules.

Hotaru is darn...freaky. I like her.

Such touching story,much huge chest...

Poor Fue Ramune ;_;

My first impression stands tho,anime/manga relies on candies too much and i dont even know any of those candies...This is mostly for japanese audience...

Better episode than the first. While I don't find this funny, it's enjoyable nonetheless. I'm alright with it. The Gundam parody was the best.

This is one of those shows, that the exaggerated imaginative candy world is more funny and entertaining versus the actual setting of the show. I would love to see more of those, like the Gundam reference and the slice-of-life candy drama at the 2nd half.

First half was kinda flat with the jokes, mostly because it's one of those seen-that-laughed-before type of joke. Second half was better.

I miss the father from the first episode, that guy was something else. The protags themselves don't have that juice to tickle your funny bone.

There's also this disconnect between culture I feel, from the Candy promotion and the skits based on the Candy, maybe it's nostalgic and relatable to the people who have grown up with this. But to me, I just stare blankly going "Ooooh, interesting back-story for the candy" but nothing more than that.

Predictable plot is one thing but predicting the joke's punchline is another.

This show is lighthearted and fun it's own way but I'm definitely not the target audience.

Episode that he can play his cards, unleashing some fetishes like meganekko and that of drunk girl after not even a sip of alcohol, but also taking advantage of some references to cult series and more, in short there for everyone. Drawings and animations are very good, good, Studio Feel! Characters more sympathetic.

Not a fan of malegaze camera, not even a single character is interesting, there does not seem to be any sort of coherent story and the weird crazyeyes character designs creepy me out like nothing else.

The overdramatic nature is funny sometimes, but this show is just boring to me. A few chuckles here and there are about all it can do. I'll see it to the end as usual, but it doesn't seem for me. Hotaru and Saya are pretty cool, but Coconuts is a huge pile of nothing.

Another funny episode. It's odd how it feels like not much happens in every episode. I know it's supposed to be more of a mis-adventures type thing.

I thought the drunk scene was going to be iffy, but I actually found it to be quite funny.

Loved the Fue Ramune cutaway, that was great.

I am glad i've tried most the snacks shown so far, makes me feel more involved in the show for some reason. I even have a packet of that beer powder from my last JapanCrate.

This show is okay so far but it kinda just feels like a big ad for snacks.

Given how much the girl moves about, wouldn't be more likely that she needs sugar just to keep up with her metabolism? But, I will confess that I did have a flash of what she would be like at 40 or so during the episode.

Looking for a plot in a comedy SoL, is like looking for a plot in a Gundam Series. Such a thing does not exist. :P

This episode was so boring for me... the candy jokes are arleady wearing off and becoming too repetitive, and there is nothing else than that. Literally this episode has been about drunk hotaru biting those crunchy things and the three protagonists playing a card game. -_-

So Hotaru gets drunk on a non alcoholic drink...... and then starts crying when the mc tells her the shop doesn't have any. Thought Saya was as cute as Hotaru in this episode wanting the mc to stay and take over the shop.

Not at all. It's your typical summer SOL comedy, but with japanese sweets in it.

Humour wise I've tried reading the manga to see what gives and it basically remains the same. If you don't like it now, you're probably not gonna like it later.

I am very torn about this one, and I watched episode 1 and 2 in one go.

I think it is interesting learning about different kinds of candy, and the exaggeration of such a mundane topic makes it entertaining. Hotaru is just a little too over the top for me, but I can deal with it. Saya is a perfect girl next door type of character, and the mix of two very different personalities makes me continue to watch what is going to happen next, even though it is so random and bizarre.

I really don't like the male MC, and that bothers me because there is such a waste of two good female characters.

I also remembering playing pogs, that is a blast from the past for me, so that was pretty good, especially Saya's pro-ness.

This is a weird one, I often don't enjoy bizarre comedies like this. Yet, I want to to continue to keep watching to know more about why Mr. Yoh is so famous in that universe's candy world. Also, I want to see the continued misadventures of Coconuts the seemingly dull male MC (hopefully his character gets better), Hotaru the strange and oddly charming sweets lover, and Saya the nice girl next door with mad skills.

A few things pop in my head.

1. Why is anything in this anime?
2. I don't understand, but I am enjoying this one and found myself laughing even in just dumbfoundedness sometimes and sheer ridiculousness.
3. The male MC needs to be better.
4. I need more Hotaru and Saya in my life.
5. I also need more info about the "famous" Mr. Yoh.

Why isn't Hotaru dead from eating all that cheap candy? Just because it's made in Japan doesn't make it any healthier. Ugh, disgusting cheap candy.

Also, Kokonotsu is so fucking bland, I want to smack the shit out of him. He has no redeeming qualities and I don't understand why Saya even likes him. Is there a shortage of good men in their town that she has no choice but to fall for that loser?

Hotaru and You-san are the only characters keeping me interesting for now. They could have their own show and I'd watch it.

The humor is subpar and pretty fucking stupid most of the time, powder that shook off from a crumbly carbohydrate stick falling onto her chest is supposed to trigger some emotions from him? Jesus Fucking Christ, Kokonotsu, you act like you're fucking 10 years old. How the hell did she get drunk over fake beer?

So another decent SoL that is ruined by a shitty beta male MC. How come they always have to add bad male MCs on SoL? Someone like Seki-kun would great to add fun to this kind of anime, but no, add more beta pussies who get shocked at the slightest hint of an adult topic. And oh, guess what, he wants to be a mangaka, the scum of Japanese society! Nice.

Absurd have no boundary... Neither does Hotaru stupidity. I love it.

Saya is super cute. I love that fang. But I don't know. Hotaru is also super sexy, while being totally oblivious of her sexiness. That will be a dangerous best girl battlefield...
