    Oishinbo - Vol. 8 Ch. 70 - Broth and Noodles (Part 3)

    I want to have some hiyashi chūka now. I wonder what it taste like.

    Oishinbo - Vol. 11 Ch. 96 - Hong Kong Flavor Competition (Part 2)

    Oh there's the other newspaper company. Haven't seen them around in a while. Can't wait to see when and why they started up the Supreme Menu project with Kaibara to rival Ultinate Menu

    Boku wa Konyaku Haki Nante Shimasen kara ne - Vol. 1 Ch. 2

    ”I've never seen that kind of story in novels or plays". But she knows "Cinderella" with enough detail to compare it to the game's plot. How does this work? Is "Cinderella" considered different from "novel" because it's a fairytale? Are fairytales told through spoken narratives so it can't be...

    Gyakkou Shita Akuyaku Reijou wa, Naze ka Maryoku wo Ushinattanode Shinsou no Reijou ni Narimasu - Vol. 2 Ch. 7

    I'm so distracted by how the father's moustache disappeared. Even in the flashback the dad is missing it so its not just a single error.

    Oishinbo - Vol. 11 Ch. 94 - Delicacies of the Sea (Part 2)

    When they keep saying it was creamy I had a feeling the right answer for the substitute would be brains.

    Cheating Men Must Die - Vol. 19 Ch. 418 - Rebirth of the Demonic Lord - I Am Jing Chen

    That "Hallo are you there" sticker cracks me up so hard for some reason 😂😂😂 Also, does anyone know what anime/donghua is being referenced there?

    Detective Conan - Ch. 0 - An Embarrassing Couple

    I don't know if you also read the Kid series, but the Kaito and Aoko date scene was something that originally happened in the first volume of the Magic Kaito series. Dunno what prompted Gosho-sensei to make this chapter, but he probably did it to connect the two series. In that Kaito chapter...

    Akuyaku Reijou no Taida na Tameiki - Ch. 4

    Partriarch instead of a Pope? Well... that's new. The religion is Fake Eastern Orthodox instead of Fake Catholic for once.

    Oishinbo - Vol. 8 Ch. 63 - Yum Cha (Part 2)

    If Yamaoka thinks it's gross, I would wager that at the time of original publishing that anko katsu menu isn't a thing yet. Adding unexpected sweet stuff into savoury food seems to be a much more recent trend. Things like "banana pizza with chocolate sprinkles" is something people would...

    Imokusa Reijou desu ga Akuyaku Reisoku wo Tasuketara Kiniiraremashita - Vol. 3 Ch. 11 - Unfashionable Lady, Reunion with the Family

    After seeing the sus merchant from last time and now this, I am convinced that was the first prince. He either had been pretending to be sick to avoid attention or he was recently healed from his illness somehow.

    Kusuriya no Hitorigoto ~Maomao no Koukyuu Nazotoki Techou~ - Vol. 10 Ch. 38 - The Moon Spirit (2)

    I still don't understand how they got Ren Shi to get into the water unseen. The appearing trick makes sense, but how did he disappear? They would've seen him if he jumped. What illusion trick did they use to cover his disappearance? In the other version it's written as "Selene", but maybe they...

    Oishinbo - Vol. 10 Ch. 91 - Fried Chicken

    So did the wife never, ever try frying chicken without the flour coating? I mean, is that kind of fried chicken just not a thing in Japan or the US? Like, what Yamaoka did was basically make fried chicken without the flour, and that's basically a completely different type of food. It's not...

    Oishinbo - Vol. 7 Ch. 59 - Egg Yolks and Egg Whites

    I like runny yolk only when eaten with something else (like in noodles, or with bread or rice) If I just eat the egg alone, I prefer solid cooked yolk. Turnover/over easy, omelette, or scrambled egg.

    Itaranu Bokura ni Cake wo Soete - Vol. 2 Ch. 10 - Tenth Spoon

    It would've been fine for me if they separated really because of difference in goals and each party have to process their feelings as they move on. But that manager being really scummy about it is getting on my nerves.

    Oishinbo - Vol. 7 Ch. 57 - Soybeans and Nigari

    Thanks for the notes as always. I had wondered if there really was a foreign rakugoka that this story was based on because there was a similar plot in another manga with an Italian person.

    Oishinbo - Vol. 10 Ch. 8 - A Gift of Sea Breeze

    It's like Yamaoka said, at the very least it's reputation issue. If someone died while training at the Gourmet Club, even if they did it to themselves, it'll still damage the club. The apprentices like Ryozo and the girl all live there while they train, so the club probably has more...

    Oishinbo - Vol. 10 Ch. 88 - I Hate Milk

    It's good that the kid learns that milk can taste good, but it doesn't fix the problem that the school provided milk taste bad. Unless maybe Tomii tells his wife and calls the school to stop pestering the kid to drink it.

    Detective Conan - Ch. 1133 - The Madder-Coloured Final Day

    Yeeeah, this case is so forced. Mirrors are often used in tricks, but this one is where it feels like it's pushing it. The original Japanese is 茜色 akane-iro. Akane is Rubia Argyi, which is part of the "madder" plant family (or, the Rubia genus). This is the exact shade of red: Aside from...
