Review of Dagashi Kashi

Okay so this anime is pretty good, but only if you are into the subject matter. For what it is it is pretty entertaining, if you are into japanese culture or overall learning more about weird little trivia, each episode has what's basically a little ad for some japanese candy, which might sound like a bore but the whole scenario that's played up for the ad is often very amusing, the characters are all pretty funny and vibrant, they all have a very destinct personality and are overall a joy to see them interact. Speaking of characters, Saya and Hotaru (the two female leads) have a verylarge wardrobe and they look super cute on every scene, Hotaru especially, her outfits are always amazing, it's quite impressive what this anime can achieve with her one note style. The boys on the other hand are not so lucky on this department, we do see them in some different getup here and there but nothing to write home about (shocker that the cute girls get more attention i know)

Anyways now onto the bad, the anime is childishly "lewd" at times, the same old boob jokes or the misunderstanding of something, Hotaru's cluelessness often (actually its more like ALWAYS) leads to her being put on some lewd situation whenever the script allows, it never misses, if its raining you get to see her boobs thru the fabric of her shirt, and i'd give more examples but oh well, its eye roll after eye roll with her, its old and tired but oh well.

As for the cute moments, well, basically every single cute moment between Saya and our protagonist is cute, it has a lot of romantic tension, you can feel how badly she wants him to stay in town, the works!
Between Hotaru and our MC tho? Well... boob jokes, jokes about "sucking it" having her sprayed with what looks like......... [and so on]

Overall the stupid lewd fetishization takes it down, but i still think that it is at least a 6 and at most an 8, no real flaws aside from that one very dumb very eye rolling flaw that makes me give it a 7
