Author needs to do a psa on why smoking is bad. I hate how glorified smoking is in media. It's not cool, it doesn't make you special, all it does is make your, as well as those around you, lives worse. My mother developed asthma due to her mother's smoking habit and I wouldn't wish that disease on even my worst enemy.

Though a case like this is fair since the main character was a heavy smoker before getting reincarnated. While I do agree that many anime and manga glorify smoking way too much, showing none of the risks to boot, it is also fair for an addict to yearn for the source of their addiction. It's the same reason many Isekai protagonists are always looking to get some "good booze," even though alcohol is similarly something that shouldn't be glorified because of what it does to the body.

The most recent video games I can recall where the player character smoked are Dusk, Vanquish, and Turbo Overkill. Even outside of Walmart, I usually don't see or smell that many smokers these days. Smoking is truly horrible, though it thankfully seems far less popular now than when I was a kid.

I feel like the bad translation joke doesn't hit when her thought bubble is translated to just say the exact same thing.
