Goddamnit, Innkeeper girl is coming in strong. So strong that I give her a zero percent chance! We know too little about her, and she hasn't shown any romantic interest in our MC. My instinct is that she'll continue to give him some lessons on growing up, yell at him a few more times, maybe fool around a little, then send him back to Tokyo with his head screwed on straight.

let's see how he will father this kid before he gets attached to something else and leaves.

Srsly though why didn’t she introduce the kid earlier though?
She would instantly lose appeal to some (maybe most?) people if we the audience knew she had a kid before the playful flirting happened.
She would. But that explanation is a doylist one. What's her in-universe reason to not introduce the kid earlier? Is she perhaps embarrassed to have that kid?

Sasuga sensei really knows how to tell a story. Even if it's nonsense, they know how to keep it interesting. So I liked that the innkeeper kind of just tore into him. She was all of us. But I am also glad that he didn't magically get better. He took the advice, but is struggling with his insecurities.

Now, where did this phantom baby come from?!

A proprietress and a chef would have made a good pair, but I can't see that happening when she has a kid (not like that was likely even before this)

and it turns out it really was the ghost of a baby she was going to have but lost because of some tragedy (in her mind but in reality is just a eldritch being)

Sounds like she’s speaking from experience. I’m guessing she’s divorced.

Likely that it's none of his business and the kid hadn't been around where he could be seen by the MC before then. They may be former schoolmates but they're really barely only friends by the thinnest of circumstances.
