Candy Candy 小甜甜

Candy Candy is Sweet, Romantic, Kind, Tough, and Adventurous girl. She is my mother’s favourite cartoon character during her teenage days. I happened to came to know this wonderful ger during my childhood days from my ma and aunt.

Yupz, I am a fan of this popular 70's series. Of course, I was not born in that period. The first time I saw the anime and read the manga was when I was about 15 years old (Heehee…I grabbed it from my aunt as she bought the whole 14 Candy Candy comic series during her childhooddays, and the manga were all yellowish when it was passed down to me.)

I remember the first time I actually read the manga and it was so inspiring, I just couldn't put it down! I recommend the story to everyone! I guarantee you that when you get to know this pretty, blonde, freckled face girl, and her life, you'll be aching to find out more! Well, it mostly apply to girls.

The Story ...

This story is about a girl called Candy who is an orphan. She is a nice and optimistic girl and she has warm heart. Because of that, everyone like (love) her very much. When she was small, she had lived in orphanage, Bonny's Home, before she met Antony. She had a good friend who is Ann. called And she met the "handsome boy on the hill" who is a important person in her life, on the hill behind the orphanage.

She was adopted by the Loka's family. What's awaiting her are the bad-hearted Leo and his sister, Eliza. One day, in the rose garden, she met a boy, who is identical to the "handsome boy on the hill" who had met in her childhood. He is Antony. Thereafter, a fantastic story that she has never expected begins......

The Final was "Candy finally finds that the "handsome boy on the hill” when she was small, is Uncle William. At hill" whom she saw as she the final scene, Uncle William appeared in the Scott's unitwhich was wore by Antony.
