Buying this key prop of Stellvia gave me a weaboo thrill. Strange, never thought myself one.

My old teeth are unable to handle it. Another dream ruined.

UPDATE: Badger, Owen, and The Big N have Stellvia on their respective to-watch lists, and haven't seen it yet. That's a minor annoyance: I hate Ayaka so much, but I have nobody to discuss it with.

Also, they said it was called "konpeitou". Why do they know it without seeing the anime?

UPDATE: Now everyone is telling me that I am supposed to suck konpeitou instead of gnawing it. It's a sugar from hell, as hard as diamond. But in Stellvia, everyone was cracking it! Are you telling me the anime is a lie? My world is ending.

Also:

<Avatar|LS> I actually learned about Stellvia from konpeito, not konpeito from Stellvia ;p
<Avatar|LS> Pocky had a jar of it, I tucked in, asked him what it was... turned out he was busy translating Stellvia ;p

Heh. The "LS" in the nick seems to indicate that he's busy timing and mastering Lucky Star. Work harder, Andy! Work smarter! I need my Miyuki fix!

UPDATE: It turned out that they sell it in Nijiya in SF, and it looks like this:

It's not anywhere as hard as its counterpart above. Odd.
