Candy Boy

Only 8 episodes long including the original ONA Candy Boy has to be one of the better yuri anime's that I've seen even though it's missing the generic yuri fanservice and has the strangest title for a Yuri show. The first time I even heard about it I thought it was some thing else entirely with that title but after giving the ONA a short because it was getting discussed a lot on /u/ it was after that that it was hard not to get interested in the story since it was pretty short and took forever for each episode to come out.

Now if you're like me you're rather confused by the whole twin sister yuri thing especially since neither one looks like the other one nor do they really share any real twin traits but then it is an anime so who the hell knows. But this is definitely a love story from the get go between the two main characters Kanade and Yukino with the Kanade loving Sakuya popping in ever now and then. Even the sister's younger non yuri sister shows up ever now and then. Either case the story is pretty much about the "sister's" life in school as they try to find their way through school and with each other and their future. It's very touching and a refreshing change to the ecchiness that you usually get with a yuri anime. I liked it and wouldn't mind renting it if it ever did make it to the states or got an official release on YouTube. It was officially released on NicoNico but since I'm not in Japan couldn't see it that way and had to wait for subbs. A simple search on YouTube will give you all that you need though. However to give you a little taste I've included the original ONA for you to check out. Hopefully this stays up long enough.
