Bittersweet Candy Bowl

hmmm, this isn’t going to be a cheerful chapter is it?

Cool. I never complain to an early update. Can’t wait to see where this goes, Taeshi.

Being screamed at is not how I would want to be waken up MOM.

Even models get bored.

: 3 I am intruiged and must continue to read. Or my brain and heart will implode from lack of bittersweet candy, which happens to be contained in a bowl.

A package? Its clearly a bomb.

Poor Micheal, never knew what hit him.

Though it seems like she was actually delivering it for her mom given the thanks she got.

i bet that box is for mike

Yoiks, Sandy’s mom seems to be a little bit on the fierce side, eh? I think I can see where this is going…

Also, perfectly logical explanation for mailbox/hand phatasming: There is an indentation in the mail-slot specifically designed for one’s hand to fit through! Y’know, so it doesn’t get stuck! Totally what’s happening right there!

Everything looks great to me!^^

8feet what the fuck.

Wtf is wrong with you 8feet

Mookie smells a break-up letter…

8feet. That was the most awesome post ever.
With the exception of __________’s post, which had to be removed….

Ah, Sandy doesn’t have her ear cuff anymore! (she wore one in the pic Mike had at the end of the Lucy Angst arc)

Who were on Sandy’s flashback? Sandy and Mike?


—- Edit: OMG i just get it it wasn’t a flashback Sandy just looked over the window and saw 2 kids

Damn, she looks sexy in the last panel…

Aw, I bet she’s missing Maishul. HANDS OFF. HE’S LUCY’S!

Wow, Sandy looks real tired and spacey. And yeah her mom seems like the whip-cracking perfectionist type that pushes their children to do the things “they” deem important. But that’s just what I’m getting so far, it’s not definitive yet to me. Love you as always Taeshi! <3

Sandy reminds me of Persia from Better Days. Except that Persia didn’t have a love interest.

ah sandy misses mike

(Sweet Dreams) Oh poor Molly. Say bye bye to mommy. Your call has expired Lolz!

P.S. YAY!!! I have been discovered! I’m famous now!!! I think I’m on TV!
Hi MOM!!!

NO FRIENDS FOR YOU. >D

…*twitch* damn sleeping Sandy looks so cute its near criminal! D:
Mike certainly got a catch with this chick!! XD *thumbs up to Mike*

Oh 8feet … *shakes small plastic container* PILLS HERE! *hint hint* lawls.

The “letter” has gotten me confused: the idea that it COULD be a letter to Mike (as suggested previously) seems plausible since she is holding the letter and such … but why did Sally’s mother say “Thanks sweetie” from the car as though doing her a favor by mailing the letter? Was the letter from her mom?

OH NOES! Could it be a letter to Mike… FROM SANDY’S MOM!? *GASP!* D:

The plot thickens like 8feet’s infinite supply of ketchup…

@SkylineFaux, ….. well, they do seem alike, but their moms are exactly the same!

Ah lack of sleep, i know it well. Sandy is so adorable >< poor thing.

if you look at the last panel you will see that someone is shouting at Sandy, and I bet a million bucks (sarcastic about a million bucks) that it’s either (<—-did I spell that right?) Sandy’s mom or that she is dreaming about one (probably Michael), some, or all of her old friends!

p.s. I’m bored!

her moms a bit of a bitch
leave the poor girl alone!

@Zan Sorry Zan I’m not into pillz Lolz;D! I’m into VODKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
also Ya! I do have infinite amount of Ketchup! especially lots of body bags!

The title of this chapter is “To The Top” But it seemed that Sandy is down(Her mood I meant)

omg i love the 6th panel <3 i really like it how you can see her eye in the reflexion!

Why exactly is her mom saying thanks in the 2nd panel? O.o

Poor Sandy, I know what being awoken by yelling is like

I support Mike~x~Corner, no, not Corner as in a name, as in a corner of a room He’s obsessed with his model girlfriend, and I think he should let her go, mainly because their personalities have changed. xD Lucy and him just… Don’t seem to fit. Lucy~x~Carter, I guess?

Really interesting, seeing the comic from Sandy’s view.

Woken up ‘cause they have arrived at destination?

How is Sandy’s mom being a bitch by asking her to mail a package?

I see ads. Lots of them. I liked it better when it was clean! Did Facebook force these ads on you?

So at last….. we see Sandy’s true nature….. that appears to be “sleepy”

Kind of interesting, yet surprising.

I know this is kind of weird, but I love this comic so much that I just got up, literally, just to check the page. I totally feel Sandy’s tiredness.

“Click”? I thought mailboxes slammed shut whether you wanted them to or not.

Is she narcoleptic?

Phantom passing through the mailbox?……………….. well I notice now

Thank you planeswalker! Now I understand why Bittersweetcandybowl has started taking 15 MINUTES to load. All these ads…

Anywho, this particular ‘page’ makes sandy look really midget. She seemed tall in the last one.

When i saw the second panel i though she was going to date another boy besides Mike. ._.?

iI’v got do idea what she’s doing. x3 The suspence!

Sandy looks like a midget.

i cant wait to see whats going to happen next

I hate it when I’m woken up right when I fall asleep.

Aww, Sandy’s lonely.

Sandy sooooo wants mike!

And i have a question, why do you draw sandy’s eyes different than the others?

what otp?

I shall love this chapter much methinks

how could politics ever put some one to sleep?politics!?!?!? D:

Interesting… VeeeEEEeery interesting….

I think I see what’s wrong in third-to-last. Her face looks vaguely more like Jess’ in that panel, though I can’t really point out why. I think it’s the mouth. Think being the keyword.


Wait, what I see here? Scandal? HOLD IT! There’s no need to fear, Pheonix wright is one the case!

Hmm… not much to go on at the moment, besides Sandy’s tiredness, Sandy missing Maishul and her mother whip-cracking her into perfection. I wonder what’s going on with the letter and the first impression?

By the way, Sandy is beautiful. I do wonder, though, if her hair is actually a wig, considering we didn’t see it on the first page. Lol.

P.S. I actually think Sandy looks adorable when she’s mailing the letter. One thing to point out, though, is that the envelope seems to be unsealed… unless it’s a box. Hard to tell, but it’s a box, right?

I wish everyone would quit complaining about the ads. If you don’t like them, block em. Get Mozilla firefox, that’s what I have and I don’t see one ad. Geez, it’s not that big of a deal people.

She’s pretty much like Rayman. Floating hands 8D

She doesn’t wear a wig!?

Because she lives in Nazi Germany. o~o She’s being taken to a concentration camp.

Hitler is her mother.

Mika- You…are amazing.

Sandy’s mom kind of reminds me of my own mother.
NAGS NAGS NAGS NAGS NAAAAAAAAAGS constantly.

well, i have mozzilla and i see adds
i just use it to block pop up adds
i mean, without adds, i would never had found this comic

Sandy’s mom reminds me of my drill sergeants from basic. NAG NAG BITCH lol. Anyways this chapter surely has me curious.

What kind of kid wears a business suit?

@Sigma: the business kind

Her mom makes me think of those mothers from Toddlers & Tiaras..

why does sandy were cloths??

‘Cause she’s a model and needs to look good? ans presumably is going to something related to said modeling job?

@Mira to show that she is not one of the main characters. Because none of the main characters ever wear clothes. Which is, now that I think about it, kind of weird…

Anyone else notice that those two boys Sandy sees through the window kinda look like Paulo and David?

DID SANDY COME TO VISIT MIKE OMG

Haha. XD Oops. Looks like my comment tipped Taeshi-san over the edge.

I know she was being vague on purpose… I just found it odd afterwards that her hair was so incredibly flat on the wake-up panel of page one that she looked EXACTLY like Lucy. I know it was intentional, just… ugh. XD

Sandy’s hair obviously doesn’t tangle when she wakes up, like mine does. Instead, it sticks to her body. XD

Love the pace, slow enough to really let the reader think

Woo! Go Sandy! Sandy FTW

I’ve got a baaad feeling ‘bout the way Sandy looks so upset and depressed… Mike better watch out for any incoming post.

Do I hear a flashback page coming soon?

What is happening with her.
And what are they listening to?

She seems so sad =(

Darn you for making me feel bad for her!

Regarding the incentive comic: I adore the imagery of the past few pages, and now want to listen to the song that Lucy is singing. What is it called?

I must say… This is just ridiculous… I mean, I’ve been in a situation like this, but at least we had cyanide pills in case we were captured by the bloody crazies we could end the pain… Poor Sandy… v.v

SANDY! WAKE UP! IT’S TIME FOR YOUR QUARTER-HOURLY BEATING. I:<

OH come on i do that all the time

hey, i finally made it to the most recent page! I have been reading for like three days straight now XD
ah…I cannot wait for the next page, one day now! //w<
yay
now that I have had my little yay moment:
finally time for what sue mentioned to take form?

I… Oh my Gourd, I’m… FINALLY CAUGHT UP, SNAP!
I have been reading this for three or four days now, I’m finally caught up! TwT

I’m glad to be able to get to know Sandy more personally. I haven’t been able to have any real opinion on who she is now. I mean, there’s a little about her earlier on. We know how she met Mike and everything but I’ve bee interested in knowing how she’s grown up since then.

i don’t get wat is she doing?

You realize of course you’re making impossible for me to say “Mike- go back for Lucy- She’s just as cute, and she’s actually there.” The cuteness factor on Sandy went up exponential in panels 1, 3, 5, and 9.

This wait is nearly KILLING ME! Seriously.

I discovered this comic at about… mm lessay 11 last night…
It’s now noon and I’ve read through all of the pages so far…
…Good work.

Haha, I’m not seeing any of these “flaws” in the comic you’re pointing out, Taeshi.

As they say, you’re your own biggest critic. When I draw or play an instrument, all the flaws are just so painfully obvious in my head, it tears me up inside. But other people just don’t seem to notice them! I really doubt people would see even half the mistakes you see without looking through your eyes if you don’t point them out. :3

Edit: Oh yeah, since I hardly ever comment, I thought I’d mention how fun that survey you had up a little while ago was. I love surveys!

Yeah…I could say that Sandy kinda looks funny in a few scenes…but who am I to critisize? I draw www.pobrepucho.thecomicseries.com and I can only have the right once I’m critisized…so until then i keep my mouth shut on critisism
