Hello! ๐Ÿ˜€

As someone born after 2000โ€™s, I feel sad that I hadnโ€™t discovered this fandom sooner. I stumbled upon my motherโ€™s old Candy Candy manga collection (she was a huge fan but hated the ending) and binged the comics as a child, and to be honest, I didnโ€™t understand most of the story. I was less than ten years old, I could barely read!

But recently, Iโ€™ve been rereading the series and I definitely understand much more of all the conflicts and emotions involved in this long journey of a story. I LOVE IT! This story made me feel like Iโ€™ve lived another life as Candy. I felt for her, cried, laughed, fell in love, swooned, mourned, reflected... all because of this fictional world and these fictional characters. This story has almost allโ€”if not allโ€”the clichรฉโ€™s in history: the poor and the rich, love triangles, the bad boy and the good girl, amnesia, lessons about life... no other story can compare. Iโ€™m so very attached to Candy Candy!

Then I thought: Ah, how nice it would be if there were more active fans now, especially on social media like Twitter, so I can fangirl with them. Not knowing how to deal with the post-Candy Candy hangover, I turned to the vast Internet and stumbled upon this site. Iโ€™ve yet to read everything here, Iโ€™ve decided to take my time and savour these pieces.

I would like to thank you for creating and putting so much effort into this site! Thank you for making me feel less alone about my love for Candy Candy. Also, thank you for giving me more reasons to ship Candy and Terry. Truth be told, this is my favourite ship out of all three. Iโ€™m glad I found you!

Love,
Just Another Fan <3

Hi there! Thanks for the message. โค๏ธ We're so happy to hear there's a CT fan from a younger generation. The Candy Candy story has some tropes that are outdated for your generation, but when we were growing up (probably the same as your mother's time), it was a very forward story and Candy's independence and resilience inspired a whole generation of girls around the world who watched her. And we love Terry! You cannot imagine the agony we lived through with the original ending, and we didn't have the internet for a long time so we had to live with that agonizing heartache for years until we grew up and the internet came along for us to gather online and share our memories. Thankfully, Keiko Nagita released CCFS in 2010, and finally helped us to find the closure we need.

We're glad you found us. We hope you'll enjoy the rest of our site. We have more English translations coming, and more essays and theories on Anohito for Terry fans to enjoy.

All the best from the Terry's Angels
