PLEASE GIVE THIS A GO

This sounds like it could be a rivals-turned-lovers trope, involving 2 reporters who used to compete with each other for scoops. A healthy dose of competitive tension makes for great chemistry. And mmMmmMM yes, it does work perfectly – but Candy Color Paradox goes beyond just that.

The series has many wonderful layers to peel away – the first layer being the romance between Kaburagi and Onoe, the second being the cases they pursue and the interview profiles they meet, and finally, what these cases reveal about their character.

For starters, the story is littered with compelling characters who aren’t what they seem at first glance. 

Even though it only had 8 episodes, I was very satisfied with the pacing of Candy Color Paradox and how the story ended. In chasing these stories and perhaps each other, the show gently explores what it means to be a partner both on the field and in their personal lives.
