If you expect a plot progression, you will be dissapointed. This is like Nisekoi with candy taking all the time.

Xenocrisi said:

Don't compare Nisekoi with this...thing.

KaiserBait said:


I just did and I bet by the end of the cour hardly anything ever progress.

Xenocrisi said:

What do you expect from a SOL? A sudden apocalypse?

hithummah said:
this show tries to imitate "gekkan shoujo nozaki-kun"

Arturio said:
Probably one of the worst comedy i've ever seen. The whole candy joke are destroying what could have been a good show. Because the joke are relate to a certain subject you can't expert a lot. No candy relate into this anime and everything would have been better the comedy for sure. Because overall candy aren't even important into the serie in the first its not shokugeki no soma where the food are actually important for the plot

Title: Dagashi Kashi
Dagashi
Da ga shi

Nah, it's not a show about snacks.....I suppose you wouldn't know the theme of a show even if it's staring at you right in the face. That's okay though, you are not the intended audience of this show anyway.

You are right about one thing though, the show should not be about candies. Dagashi is not exactly restricted to candy or sweets. eg pork instant noodle obviuosly is not candy! It's basically little snacks, affordability and variety are the key traits.

Arturio said:
Are you stupid? I am saying the theme of the show is useless for various reason. You take out the candy out of the show and it change everything. Its only harming the serie with this restriction and yes for the start it could have been the same anime you take out the candy relate stuff, and it and up the same but with a humour not restrict

+Art
+potplant

Art you're not making sense, let me try my best to interpret what you're trying to say. You are saying that these candy jokes are mostly known by Otakus and Japanese and Asian culture as a whole, and that it's leaving lots of Europeans (Especially Britains who are known for their dry sense of humor) scratching their collective heads as to if that was a funny thing or not.

potplant that's what he was trying to say, maybe...?

Arturio said:
not even close. I am trying to say that restricting a comedy on one subject is the problem of the serie, normally you would use a subject to make the story around it . For example your watching a sport anime, Basketball for example in kuroko no basket you would use the subject to make a story out of it, When in comedy you don't want to restrict yourrself on a subject , it limit the option that you can accomplish in one series. In the end i am trying to say, the author could have scratch this idea an end up with the same character and setting without this big restriction. And still ending up making a way better sol, And yes i wasn't the audience for this show but cmon guys what type of people are searching for full time comedy about candy

In a nutshell, Arturio is complaining about 'red' is not what he imagined red should be, and goes on to question how a colour should be and why 'red' is not a proper colour because of his own, if rather chuunibyou self-importance.

Red is red, nobody cares you don't like red.

Cmon potplant, Art pleaded his case and made it specific, you should too, it's only fair.

Anyways, while potplant formulates his next response to Art, I have interesting observation, about red ha jk, I was thinking why people are expecting a "plot". Gundam wasn't plot driven, it was exhibition of their latest and greatest mecha designs and to sell Gundam models ofc. Now onto this anime, it's not plot driven. It's main device is to introduce mainly Europeans on that culture of Japan about "Snack and Candy, but small problem, to the French, snacks could be Croissants or the Belgians, Waffles, or to the Germans and Poles (I have no idea), to the Britains (crumpets and tea), and so forth, and what was I trying to say, um... WHOLE POINT WAS THAT THERE WASN'T A PLOT, IT'S COMEDY GET OVER YOURSELF!

Addenum: If you're a foodie, try Yakitate!! Japan and there actually a manga about "curry", titled "Addicted to Curry."

For the first 6 minutes:

"They're waiting for her shirt to go transparent"
"They're waiting for her shirt to go transparent"
"They're waiting for her shirt to go transparent"
eh, close enough
Then her shirt went transparent.

WHAT A TWEEST

To hell with this lame ass show, I'm out.

Dear chap, I shall fill the role of Mr. potplant.

What this fellow is saying that Mr. Arturio is complaining about genre, what the comedy genre should be and that if it is not to his liking he dismisses it because it does not fit into his ideal. More to the point, that I don't give **** about Mr. Arturio **** personal taste because he is **** and **** **** **** **** ****

Rest of of that was censored dear fellow. I dare say it is better to agree to disagree and move on.

I shall now play the role of Mr. Arturio. **** and **** Obviously the rest of that was also censored.

The game is afoot, Dr. Watson...We shall take our leave here.

potplant said:


Actually...the amusing part is Arturio did not complain about comedy as a genre. Instead he came here to complain about this show's subject matter and focus is wrong for a comedy. The stupidity of expecting a story out of SoL aside, Whoopiedoo dagashi bores you. Some people seem to enjoy it. Get better at selecting shows next time!

Now, if someone got on a bus that is going to Detroit, then complains to the fellow passengers the said bus has the wrong destination because he wants to go to Boston, all that's left to be said is sir you don't have to pay for your fare because persons with a disability ride for free!

ScotlandYard said:


When then I ever say that, look at the whole quote, " Mr. Arturio is complaining about genre, what the comedy genre should be and that if it is not to his liking he dismisses it because it does not fit into his ideal."

To further clarify here is Arturio quote, "When in comedy you don't want to restrict yourrself on a subject " Now doesn't that sound like he saying what a comedy genre should be?

Now your quote, "Instead he came here to complain about this show's subject matter and focus is wrong for a comedy. " Now doesn't that sound like your saying he is saying what the comedy genre should be?

Now tell me again what's your point?

Arturio said:
Making joke about one subect is a really weird way to create a comedy around it

Pork bone noodles are a real thing? With real bones?

Have to look out for them.

Ryuutobi said:
The bones are used for seasoning only. In fact, using animal bones as seasoning is a common practice in Asia & it's not limited to pork dishes. Basically, you improve the taste of the soup by boiling the bones in it.

The bones are usually not served with the food in the dish/bowl. I said usually because in Indonesia there are actually several dishes served with the beef/goat/chicken bones in it.
