Synopsis Life story of Candice White since her 'birthday' till when she found her purpose in life. Candice White: orphan, tomboy, pretty lady and nurse. Set in Michigan and England circa World War I era. (TC)
Review A classic shoujo anime, set in the USA, following the story of Candy White, a tomboy-waif from Michigan. Visually, it is somewhat reminiscent of "Lady Georgie", another period romantic drama. In a later episode, Candy works as a nurse at a railroad construction project. I've only seen two episodes, and detail on the series can be hard to come by, but check out the "Anime Encyclopedia" or the Shoujo ML Archive. Highly rated by some shoujo fans.

A classic in shoujo history. Anime exaggerates and stretches the manga a bit, which caused a slightly lower quality than the manga. (TC) Rating ****
