    I’m asian, and yes, some couples tend to wear matching outfits on special occasion. Though i’m not belong to that kinda group, sometimes i matched my husband’s outfit colour with mine. And yup, that kind of behaviour, unconsciously, is somewhat a way to tell the whole world that we’re couple, we’re an item, we’re intimate, we’re really really close.

    and you’re right on that spot that after albert left her, candy only thought about albert. Not terry. at least we didn’t see it in manga. and if one said picture says a thousand words, … it’s more than enough for us to conclude what candy’s felt during albert’s absence. she cried and cried and cried thinking about their time together. she impulsively went to rockstown to find albert, without knowing exact address. in contrary, we didn’t see both candy and terry tried to reach each other after they know each other whereabouts. yes, NY-chicago is far in distance. But still … didn’t they love each other?

    sometimes i wondered is it really love that they possessed? or is it just a wonderful illusion they had?

    you know ms puddle, sometimes i tried to be really really fair, to put aside the fact that i’m more into albert fan. i tried to read and think about the manga in candy’s perspective. Still, it’s very clear for me that mizuki made albert lost his memory temporarily with an ultimate purpose. the same purpose she introduced the prince of the hill very very briefly ( but extremely memorable) on the first chapter of manga and made him disappeared and re-appeared on the last page. the same purpose why she made uncle william’s character to be mysterious. and the same purpose why she made dear anthony die young, at a moment he’s very close to tell candy that he knew who the prince of the hill was. The whole story would be totally different if anthony had a chance to reveal the prince’s identity. i’m sure you know what i’m talking about. 🙂

    cheers

    Interesting! I agree with you that some facts speaks volumes, She misses him during his absence and not Terry, she walked away from Terry and kept looking for Albert and always thinking of him.

    I think if you wear matching outfits is because you want to show the world or at least your couple, your desire to be closer to him, it is like your subconscious is saying that you want to be attached to this person as much as possible.

    Maybe that is why Albert was surprised when she bought matching pijamas and the cups with their initials.

      Yes indeed!! Candy probably wasn’t aware how much Albert meant to her until he was gone… Sniff sniff…

      About matching outfits and the cups, you’re right! It’s almost like Candy was ready to start her new life living together with Albert. His reaction to seeing that she was wearing a matching pajamas was so cute don’t you think? 😛
