Aww, Kokonotsu's missing Hotaru already. Why didn't he just say so? LOL


I just started on the manga, and the Hotarou x Kokonotsu ship is at full sail even in the first few chapters.

Really, I didn't really buy the storeis about how Saya biased the anime adaptation supposedly is, but I guess it's true.

That's what you get when you eat more candy than rice! Mouth Ulcer! and LOL it became so humongous it's like Hotaru's cheek has tumor on it! bwahahaha
It's natural to know that Hotaru's family is rich! LOL at that house so big! and living alone could also have benefits! like you could do anything you want because no one's gonna see you...
LOL everytime that i see Hotaru hurts herself...i'm thinking of carnal things...like a vibe...bwahahaha
Kokonotsu is really good at torturing Hotaru with temptation of candies! Like the sound, the smell! Hard to resist when it comes to Hotaru doing candy abstain!
Hotaru's really strong when withdrawal symptoms cause her body to move on its own...LOLZ!
This is hopeless for Hotaru...even the medicine she takes is also a FRIGGIN' CANDY!!!
5/5.

My GOD! this director CLEARLY emphasize the kindness of Saya and Retardery of Hotaru!
If they just stick this shit to the manga, now this shit has no chronological narative, and the worst is that the anime as a whole body is an uncoherent storytelling!
Such a CLUSTERFUCK!!

From the eye of someone that didn't read the manga, surely this anime has no substance to speak of...

Commedy? I did not laugh!
Romance? Certainly not!
Slice of Life? What the Fuck!

I'm not saying the non original episodes were masterpieces because they weren't, otherwise I wouldn't have rated this show 4/10

But this episode was definitely the worst of the bunch

Almost completely original. Only from manga was mixture and they still changed it's taste from unspeakably bad to good. Retarded.

Can't believe Tou just casually goes there during the night and buy drinks from a vending machine full of moths.

This wa an alright episode, but honestly I found it kind of annoying as the reason she wasn't eating Dagashi was obvious but Coconuts kept asking the same damn question over and over. But this episode did make me realize how cute Hotaru really is.

For now what's best for Hotaru is she needs to eat vegetables, fruits (except pineapple and cantaloupe and honey dew melon), drink enough water, and get enough sleeps

That episode was weird. I will probably read the manga after watching the anime, it seems funnier.

I find it sad the director is apparently pushing Saya so much in the anime.

Don't get me wrong, I really love Saya (as much as Hotaru), but she was pretty useless in that episode in particular. With only Kokonotsu, we would have had basically the same episode.

And I think the dynamic between Hotaru and Kokonotsu was the main point of Dagashi Kashi, so it's weird Saya got so much screen-time knowing that the true main characters are Hotaru-chan and Kokonotsu.

Oh nevermind, at least we got MELONS.

oh wow, these manga readers here... all throwing a fit over changes in the anime. Guess what, this isn't made for you. The Anime is anime, the manga is manga. If the director likes Saya and gives her more screen time, then what? You're gonna rage on the forums, give it 1/10s and ...? The level of entitlement is mind-boggling.

I enjoy it as it is.

People who like Hotaru and japanese cheap candy can keep reading the manga.
People who like Saya can keep watching the show.
The author gets more money from the increased exposure, sales of the manga have doubled.

It was this episode in particular that I found really weird.

It's thanks to the anime that I will read the manga for my part, so I'm not complaining. But from what I've already seen from the manga, the anime seems weaker and I understand it could bother some manga readers.

And Saya is a great character, that flashback episode with Kokonotsu was the best from the show, at least in my personal opinion. But in the last episode, I think she was pretty useless.

As a manga reader I am HAPPY there are a lot of Saya episodes.

You know why? Because the chapters in which she gains focus are the only chapters in which any degree of plot or character progression occur. There is a Saya ship tease in the manga, it isn't much but it is there and it is more than the Hotaru ship tease.
As much as I love Hotaru she literally does some variation of the exact same thing in every chapter she shows up in. She is a recurring joke.

If the anime just followed the manga chapter for chapter without skipping anything it would be terrible. It would be doing nothing but retreading ground us manga readers have already been over and wouldn't engage anime only viewers due to the complete lack of progression.

No easy day for the trio.

Even in a state like that, Hotaru still manages to cling onto her beloved sweets (as well as illusions). I must admit, that pyjama oh hers was quite lovely, particularly as she entered beast mode...

There is no plot progression in manga anyway so they wasted episodes for boring shit instead adapt most fun chapters.

The anime is always a mean to boost the manga's sale, it has always like that, even for LN ( except for original anime ) . However, as many of you here have said, the anime adaption is not faithful and it IS a problem because in the first place, Hotaru is the reason why this manga got so much attention, even to the point of getting an anime adaption. I understand taste may vary but at least for me and probably for Japanese, this isn't a very sucessful show. Now imma gonna leave and copy paste this somewhere else as well :))))))))))))

When she was refusing the dagashi, I was like,'Shit just got real'. Hilarious how instinct made her run towards the dagashi and the fact that what she thought was medicine was again dagashi, and they both just gave upon her xD
