Candy Candy was my childhood... I feel a bit old now

 

[mimicking]

I love villainess trope and I want to be oh ho ho'd at. if an Ojousama stepped on me, I'd say thank you and again please.

@Shdill The drill hair trope started as visual shorthand for showing off a girl character of high social standing/wealth, esp. those from Westernized new rich backgrounds/Western fantasy (as opposed to the straight black locks of rich traditional Japanese).

Those early shoujo manga had these drill hairs as the "rich b*tch" villainess love rival, which cemented the hairstyle as the villainess trope of today.

Damn, those 70's character designs. I have read/watched none of the mentioned series. Glass Mask is a name I knew, for whatever reason, but the rest I didn't even know as titles.

 

[Serenata]

You know, you gotta recognize how incredible is the fact that the Ojou sama archetype has survived pretty much unchanged for decades and is still pretty cool, we're now adding some twists of course.

Best Ojousamas imo Karin Kanzuki from Street Fighters

The true villainess of candy candy was not eliza but anne, she was the true devil who fooled candy till the end, she used her as a ladder and i will always think that candy in the really inside was in love with her ‘cause another person wouldn’t stand for that

 

[ArisatoMinato]

@Kaarme: I insist you at least read Glass Mask. It is a shoujo manga that is as shounen as over the top shounen manga like Dragon Ball Z or Saint Seiya. Complete with a time skip, training arc, discovery hidden move, ancient master and power up flashback.

 

[sarshi]

is it bad that i know them all? lol

 

[Kaarme]

@ArisatoMinato It'd be quite a lot of reading. But it's not impossible.

 

[Whooooooo]

boomer isekai boomer isekai

 

[Ravezta]

if only gossiping neighbor aunties are OHOHO ojousama with drills

 

[UglyDuck]

This chaoter was short right?

 

[gigabarto]

what a boomerish chapter

 

[FYAYFD]

To be fair, everybody should read or watch Candy Candy.

 

[frzned]

This chapter discussion in a nutshell:

"Boomers"

Seriously though. All good series in their own rights. Fun fact: Glass Mask is still continuing despite the last volume was released.... 6 years ago. A new volume was supposed to drop on 2016, but the author didnt like it and recalled and decided to redraw the whole thing.

 

[Mojo]

I remember reading Glass Mask, but never the other two. I wonder if it's translated?

 

[degenerateafro]

I'm just glad I'm not the only person who has read all three of these series. 🤣
