Yeah, this sign in some form is basically at the entrance of every single convenience store. Pretty sure it's just a policy nation wide at convenience stores. (It's fine to wear masks since they don't cover your entire face.)

Okay, so I can't get over the fact that there was one char named Sendai since it seemed so weird. Then, when looking at their names in the description in the raws, they're literally Sendai and Miyagi as in Sendai City in Miyagi Prefecture? lol
Thanks for the translations! This was indeed quite a long chapter. The anime was pretty enjoyable, although the manga felt a bit more entertaining, but as a result of the anime, I'm now spoiled and have to fight the urge to breeze over the pages and not properly appreciate the details, lol.
I thought Mugi was kinda a weird name for a human since I'd not heard it before, but apparently in 2023, it ranked 213 of 1417 baby names for girls. (The reading, not any specific set of kanji that can be read as that name as there are a number of those.) TBH, I'm not sure how accurate this...
There's sushi chain that's quite big called Kurazushi. This sushi is called Korazushi,which is like, "Hey!" in a disapproving way, thus the bulging vein symbol on the box.
