Completed
Summary:
Yukino and Kanade Sakurai live together as high school students enjoying their daily life; until one day Sakuya Kamiyama confess her love for Kanade to Yukino, asking for her support. This makes Yukino to release her true feelings for her sister.
Overall, since it was a Slice-of-Life kind of anime, the "love" story is actually very anti-climatic.
It's still somewhat worth the watch though; it has witty dialogue and concepts to some extent.

However, this is (again) Slice of Life, meaning it carries no essential climax. This may cause it to seem a little boring at times.
I would recommend Candy Boy for someone who's looking for a short, feel-good (read more)
