I Failed At Anime 2022


Being produced by Feel, Dagashi Kashi is the story of Kokonotsu Shikada, who has dreamt to be a manga artist ever since he was a child. Problem is, his father, Yo, wants him to inherit the family sweets shop, Shikada Dagashi, and he is in line to be the 9th head. Kokonotsu has a talent for making any sweet better without putting any effort into it which makes his inheritance all the more apropos, but he declines his father's offer every time. One day, Hotaru Shidare, a girl from the city and the daughter of a world famous sweets company, shows up and wishes to convince Kokonotsu's father to join her company. Yo agrees, but under the condition that she convinces Kokonotsu to take over the family shop.

This is a fun comedy series about candy that has some decent talent behind the anime, it seems. It's being streamed in English by Funimation, but they have delayed the first episode for some ridiculous reason so you'll have to wait a bit for the first episode, but it's gonna be a good time. Here's some manga panels and a PV

I decided to stick with one role, because if I didn't then Keiji Fujiwara's would become two paragraphs.
