Dagashi KashiFeel / Comedy, Slice of Life / MangaRating: 8/10After a lot of unimpressive shows, Feel finally had something that made me stay! Sweets, sweets and more sweets, who knew? And the history/context behind them - that’s what Dagashi Kashi’s all about. It’s a silly show about how Hotaru convinces Kokonotsu (son of a candy shop owner) to take over their shop while introducing us to Japanese snacks in the process.The plot’s actually simple but all those snacks and toys being featured each episode is what makes the show entertaining. It doesn’t have a whole premise than the one above but people still watch due to the funny antics among the characters (as well as some ecchi on the side). Of course I shouldn’t fail to mention the educational side of the show, with each snack having its own history (many dating back to hundreds of years) - some with very nostalgic or simply mundane contexts.Admit it, the show makes you want to go to Japan and buy all those stuff featured - sad many are only available locally. And it’s great that the show ended without the need to actually end, as newer slice of life shows tend to be like that. I’d definitely recommend the show if you need a lot of laughs in between more mainstream (and darker) programs. -- source link
