    Oishinbo - Vol. 8 Ch. 5.2 - Soup and Noodles (Part 2)

    This also had an Ala Carte version, I was wondering how Inspector Nakamatsu got engaged but it looks like it's another one of those speedy development, hahah. It was just that one chapter with ice cream, and now they're engaged. I mean, I'm sure more stuff happened between them offscreen, but...

    Oishinbo - Vol. 5 Ch. 41 - The Taste of Beef Hotpot

    I never even had sukiyaki LOL, but the Rosanjin style sounds great. Had shabu shabu plenty of times, though.

    Oishinbo - Vol. 8 Ch. 4 - Hometown Sweetfish

    Aah, that makes sense. "Javanese" and "Japanese" can be easily confused.

    Oishinbo - Vol. 8 Ch. 4 - Hometown Sweetfish

    No, it's actually not. Ayu means sweetfish. So the title of this chapter (and the episode, presumably) simply translates to "Hometown of Sweetfish". I think there are Japanese sayings that compares young ladies to sweetfish, so maybe that's what was messing up the translation or something, but...

    Harapeko Oyako to Motokare Yanushi - Ch. 1

    I know manga often handwaves logic for the sake of making the plot work, but this being set in normal modern day makes the setup uncomfortable. Like, if you really must bullshit the plot to get those two to live in the guy's house, are there no better options for it?

    Oishinbo - Vol. 5 Ch. 37 - The Fragrance of Bamboo

    Honestly I'm not even sure if health concern was really why there's a bunch of videos of bamboo fish that don't use the fat haha. I noticed that there's a lot of videos of fish grilled in bamboo where the person cooking only marinaded the fish/mixed it with the seasonings and just put it in...

    Oishinbo - Vol. 5 Ch. 37 - The Fragrance of Bamboo

    I found a video of the bamboo fish being prepared, and if anyone's interested you can watch it here: https://www.douyin.com/video/6933060159459675392 There are variations of the prep method where the pork fat netting isn't used (an article cites that modern people are wary of cholesterol), but...

    Oishinbo - Vol. 8 Ch. 1.2 - Dim Sum (Part 2)

    Not gonna lie, I kind of want to try that anko tonkatsu. It's actually a legitimate menu in a restaurant, and it's not a prank dish, so apparently you can make it work if you cook it right. It might be gross for people back in the day because it's such a weird combination, but nowadays it's...

    Happiness Meal - Vol. 2 Ch. 16 - Sukiyaki

    I kind of don't really get it this time. If the conflict has been going on for a long time (according to the end note), I guess the dad didn't actually really approve of the son leaving to be a comedian?

    Kusuriya no Hitorigoto ~Maomao no Koukyuu Nazotoki Techou~ - Vol. 8 Ch. 32 - The Caravans

    .............. This manga and the other manga both drew flowering tea and called it "jasmine", so this confirms that it's the original book author who was the one that screwed up the text. While there is "jasmine flowering/blooming tea", it's not actually supposed to be called "jasmine tea"...

    Kusuriya no Hitorigoto - Vol. 14 Ch. 73.1 - Traces (Part 1)

    Ruo Men had his kneecaps removed? I feel like he should've had more difficulty walking even if his other leg is still good. Like, even if it's just on the one leg, I sort of expect missing the kneecap entirely would've rendered the leg unusable, and he would need a crutch to walk, not just a cane.

    Oishinbo - Vol. 4 Ch. 33 - The Qualifications of a Chef

    Would be interesting to see the flat glass noodle strips part of the mulberry dish in reality. Never seen one where someone took the trouble to make it from scratch.

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

    Ooh, for me when I eat just the egg I prefer the yolk cooked solid, but I prefer the runny one if it's eaten with something else (like mixed with rice or placed on bread)

    Enzai de Shokei sareta Koushaku Reijou wa Konse de wa mofu Kamisama to Odayaka ni Sugoshitai - Ch. 13

    Other chapters? Is the translation already ahead in a different place, or do you mean there are bonus chapters not posted here or...?

    Isekai Izakaya "Nobu" - Ch. 90 - Taste of Memories

    ???? Ok, maybe there's a miscommunication somewhere, but this wasn't what you said before. Another user had said "why is it so hard to ask if a black haired person came by" and then you responded that he was probably afraid of the inquisition. That seems so over the top to me, that's why I...

    Isekai Izakaya "Nobu" - Ch. 90 - Taste of Memories

    And? Pretty sure it won't matter since that's probably Yoda coming back, but the son-in-law can just describe the guy he's looking for. Something like "he has black hair like you". If the staff says "don't remember" or starts asking shifty questions, only then it's time to be worried. But this...

    Oishinbo - Vol. 4 Ch. 31 - The Breadth of The Dining Table

    I've only ever had "tonkatsu/chicken katsu with rice", never a proper katsudon with the egg mixed in. It kind of looks heavy, and I can't really eat much.

    Isekai Izakaya "Nobu" - Ch. 90 - Taste of Memories

    I mean he don't have to mention the woo woo magic stuff. Just play the customer card. Saying something like "My acquaintance told me he wanted to visit [Nobu], has he been here yet?" should be fine.

    Isekai Izakaya "Nobu" - Ch. 88 - The Man Who Came From Across a Distant Sea

    Thanks for the update. So Whatsontapp was the official English translation for "toriaezu nama"? The previous translator had left the Japanese name for the beer, this one having a different name kind of surprised me a little.

    Detective Conan - Ch. 1128 - The Trigger For Counterattack

    Yooooooo, I was right!! In the first chapter I guessed that it was the "head in a jar prank" that you can make by printing out a face in a scroll and putting it in a jar. It was exactly that!!!
