Review of Dagashi Kashi

**This will contain spoilers** ... Having said that, there's not really much to spoil as there's 0 story progression and character development. You could even go as far as to say there is no story in the first place. What we have here is pretty much an advertisement/ promotional anime for Japanese candy and snacks. Let's start with what little there is to tell - the conflict. Our protagonist wants to be a manga artist, and his dad wants him to inherit his candy shop (and work there). ..... That's it. That's the whole conflict and backstory. Then comes a good looking girl who's obsessed withcandy and claims to be the daughter of a huge candy company owner who wants the shop to join, and the protagonist's father immediately agrees.. Or rather sets a condition that if she gets his son to agree and inherit the shop, they will join. Since he's not eager to do that, she decides to stay in town and visit him every day to try change his mind. And there the story progression stops. Till the very end of it.

What's the rest then you ask? Fanservice with sexual suggestive themes and jokes, general comedy and just goofing around while advertising Japanese snacks and candy while going into their history. And as bad as that may sound, the result is actually somewhat enjoyable. How exactly that is is beyond me (and its not the fanservice, but it does help a bit).

Having said that, its not an AMAZING anime by any means, just a decent one, but one that is still worth a watch. 6.3/10
