Enjoy the magic of Candy and Terry...Italian style! ^__^ Other CandyNews... With more than 7100 votes for Candy's return since May 2002, I would like to extend my deepest gratitude and MAHALO to all your votes that counted toward the international Candy Candy PETITION ! It would not have been a success without your enthusiastic support!! And if you're a particular Candyfan who have a strong desire PRO or CON towards Susanna Marlowe, don't forget to cast your vote at the unique and unimagineable site: Le Site de Susanna Marlowe created by the one and only, infamous SML President Cyberfred, the devoted knight of Susanna Marlowe!

First I'd like to extend my warmest thanks to those dear Candyfans who waited patiently for this long-overdue update! ^__~!! This site was created to share the untold dreams of Candyfans who watched, read and loved this unforgettable orphan "Candy Candy." Illustrated in the FANARTS are new drawings by the talented Aleksandra and Priss as well as fresh and lovely fanarts by Valen, which correspond to her own fanfiction in my site. For those anxiously awaiting new CC fanfictions, I've added three new chapters of Priss's own "In College" as well as two new stories by Aleksandra in my FANFICTIONS page. I hope you'll enjoy all the wonderful contributions of these devoted fans and there's more still to come! ^___^ Now for the latest CANDYNEWS ... On June 7, 2002, the Tokyo District court awarded the latest court case to Kyoko Mizuki, the author of CC and ordered Yumiko Igarashi and 5 other accomplices to pay the sum damage of 30,000,000 yen! Upon winning this trial, Kyoko Mizuki had decided to close the guestbooks (Japanese and English) on her website: http://www.k-nagi.com . But before bidding a final "Sayonara" and "Arigato" to all her fans, she left us a parting gift... a poignant and touching letter that Candy wrote to Terry but never mailed. This letter is an excerpt from the third volume of her CC NOVELS. It's been translated in english and can be read at her site: http://www.k-nagi.com/friends.html . I'm interested to hear the reactions/opinions of Candyfans to this astoundingly moving letter. I hope to publish some of them in my next update! ^__^ For those who were able to vote for the republication of the CC novels in this Japanese website: http://www.fukkan.com/list/comment.php3?no=2762 I'm very happy to report that the votes from the overseas fans have impressed the company enough to begin negotiations and discussions with Kyoko Mizuki and Kodansha to republish the CC novels! ^__^ When will the novels be published? You can read Mizuki's response here: http://sekichiku.freehosting.net/candyr_newcc.htm My warmest MAHALOS to all Candyfans who participated in this important international Candy Candy PETITION to vote for the return of Candy Candy! Within four months, more than 4500 Candyfans have voted and left their heartfelt pleas and for TOEI animation and the makers of Candy to continue this beloved series. TOEI Animation doubts that there are enough Candyfans world-wide who would be interested in seeing this beloved animation again. Unfortunately, the lawsuit with Igarashi and the illegal selling of CC Video bootlegs are preventing them from releasing the videos for broadcasting and purchase. Let's continue to stand and be counted as devoted Candyfans and show TOEI and the world that WE LOVE CANDY CANDY! If you have not yet voted, please participate in the Candy Candy PETITION created by Sophie, the french CC webmistress at Au Pays de CandyCandy. We, along with other CC webmistresses in the net are working together to keep Candy's spirit alive among the overseas fans and to encourage the makers of Candy that Candy is ETERNAL, a TIMELESS CLASSIC.

And finally, for those who haven't yet seen or heard about this remarkably beautiful flash presentation created by the CC webmistress Sophie, I urge all Candyfans (especially CandyTerry lovers) to view this awesome and romantic video of our beloved Candy and Terry! It is a definite "MUST-SEE" for all Terrylovers! ^__^!! You'll fall in love all over again! VOILA! ^__^ http://aupaysdecandy.free.fr/clipflash/accueil.htm MAHALO NUI LOA AND THANKS FOR VISITING CANDY AND TERRY'S ROMANTIC PARADISE!! ^__^!!! Tuesday, May 7, 2002 HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANDY CANDY!! ^__^ Fanfictions, Fanarts, CT Romance, CC Poll and CC Novels and News Updates!!! It's time to CELEBRATE and PARTY, Candyfans! ^__^ Candy's story was first written by Kyoko Mizuki and illustrated as a manga by Yumiko Igarashi in 1975! Since then, this beloved and endearing story has touched the hearts and lives of many fans across the world in many different countries. It brought fans together and created deep friendships among those who shared a common love and bond with this unique story about the hardships, heartbreaks and hopes of a young orphan girl named Candy White. Indeed, she left unforgettable footprints in our hearts. However, the lawsuit between the "two mothers" of Candy has threatened the bright future of Candy. Kyoko Mizuki has left a farewell message to the overseas fans at her english guestbook for overseas fans at: http://www.k-nagi.com You may also read her message to the fans HERE. The last and hopefully final Candy trial between Mizuki and Igarashi is set for the end of May, at which time she will close her guestbook and her site to the fans. If you would like to leave a note of gratitude for the story she created before her guestbook closes, please do so at this time! But don't lose HOPE, Candyfans! We can still see keep the SPIRIT of Candy alive and burning with our VOTES! I want to encourage all Candyfans to VOTE for the republication of Mizuki's CC NOVELS. For the moment, it's only published in Japanese, but there is HOPE that it might be translated to ENGLISH or ANY OTHER LANGUAGE! To commemorate Candy's birthday, I invite and strongly encourage all fans to UNITE and let your voices be heard. PLEASE VOTE for CANDY'S FUTURE HERE at the CC NOVELS and help us to SPREAD the WORD to ALL CANDYFANS! ^___^ And for those Candyfans who dearly want to see the rebroadcasting of CC animation again, it's important that you please participate in this Candy Candy PETITION for international Candyfans! TOEI Animation doubts that there are enough Candyfans world-wide who would be interested in seeing this beloved animation again. Unfortunately, the lawsuit with Igarashi and the illegal selling of CC Video bootlegs are also preventing them from releasing the videos for broadcasting and purchase. Let's stand and be counted as devoted Candyfans and show TOEI and the world that WE LOVE CANDY CANDY! Please participate in the Candy Candy PETITION created by Sophie, the french CC webmistress at Au Pays de CandyCandy.

Please continue to share and discuss with other Candyfans in the old Bravenet Forum and also the New Forum which I might plan to discontinue at a later date or possibly use as a forum for FAQ about Candy Candy. In the new forum, I've posted some answers to the long-standing questions about the Candy videos and mangas that many fans continue to inquire about.

Thursday, October 11, 2001 WEBSITE UPDATE!! For all the Candyfans and guests who continue to visit my site, I would like to extend a great MAHALO and THANKS for your patience in expecting the next update! ^_^ Problems with providers, my computer and the lack of time and resources have prevented me from continuing with frequent updates. However, I anticipate to complete my next update beginning the week of October 22 with new fanarts and fanfictions by new and old Candyfans and other Candygoodies! ^_~ I will create a new mailing list since the old one was unfortunately deleted, so if you have signed up before, I would like to encourage you to please sign up again so that I can inform you of future updates and news in Candyworld! ^__^!! Mahalo! For those who are active fans in the community of CandyCandy, you might be aware of a general cohesiveness and closeness among Candyfans in the French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese and English Candy websites! Many of us know each other through emails, forum posts and even through the fanarts and fanfictions that are shared widely throughout the net in various Candywebsites, forums and clubs. I am interested in creating a special "Candy Newsletter" which will publish news concerning the events in "Candyworld", but I will need the help of interested fans who are willing to share any new information about CandyCandy in the real world! ^_~ Normally, these type of interesting news and informations are posted in public forums, but the forum messages are only temporary and not many fans have the opportunity to read them weeks later. This Candy Newsletter will provide new information (if available) about the trial between the authors, any anime/manga conventions that involve CandyCandy or the creators of CandyCandy, and any special events concerning Candy webmasters and their sites and any interesting news related to CandyCandy that are occuring in the rest of the world. If any Candy webmasters have a new update on their site, this Candy Newsletter can also publish this and hopefully allow other Candyfans to visit and appreciate the new additions to their site. Already, new and original CandyCandy websites in different languages have been created since I've started my own site over two years! It's wonderful to know that the spirit of CandyCandy still lives on among devoted Candyfans throughout the world! The character and her life story will never die in our hearts and the numerous websites dedicated to this memorable anime/manga is a testament to this fact. ^__^ LONG LIVE CANDY CANDY!!! A great warm "Mahalo Nui Loa" for visiting! ^_^!!
