Honestly this all makes sense.
Baki was raised by an extremely wealthy mother in his early years.
Jack had a far simpler childhood with nothing but training on his mind.
I am hoping this will unlock something in him. Everyone always told him his body needs rest, and just like when Retsu served Baki food for him to replenish in the China tournament, this might rejuvenate Jack.

Though I will say Jack being able to just dunk back a glass of sherry like that without gagging on his very first time is kinda hard to believe.

You think yujiro sits there, watching his son's eat or watch as they tear up being embraced and acknowledged thinking to himself: "man, I really fucked them up didn't I" ? Probably not. This is probably gonna end with someone going through that window, Or maybe a wall.

Thanks for the chapter.

Awesome to see Jack like this lmao. It's funny how people have different fears and shit. Against the World's Strongest and literal lethal weapons: no fear if not excitement. A nice dinner with pops? "OH DEAR GOD OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN- HOW DID FATHER SAMUEL BACK IN CANADA TAUGHT ME IT AGAIN?!?!?"

Jack was way too cute this chapter. This feels like it's just going to be set up for Yujiro to throw him out of the window or something. Just nice to see Jack be happy to eat some good fucking food. I kinda want to eat that now.

Yujiro, the dude who chugged an entire bottle of expensive scotch as if it were a bud lite: "wHo jUSts cHUGgs sHErRy?"

Jackawaii...but also, surprisingly reasonable Yujiro. "Dude, he tried to order tapwater. Don't expect him to be fancy."
Then Jack just fucking eating the lobster like a sandwich.

This could be a cool spinoff manga about Jack traveling around to world for food and fighting. Please 😭 🙏, I wish someone will make that happen.

Thats his isekai when he bites it(pun intended), gets sent to the same world as Retsu and just goes Toriko.

Jack is so big and strong, but his mind is so fragile. He constantly looks for validation from a father he didn't have. Now, he's desperate to be approved by Yujiro and twists words that put him in his mind better than Baki. I'm sorry for him, to be honest. He even modified his body to reach this level of external validation. This is a manga, but in reality, in the end, it's all the parents' fault for not giving enough love to their children.

Man I love seeing the other sides of Jack this chapter really highlights who he is in a lot of ways. I still find it kinda strange at times Yujiro is actually kinda a “good dad” but Jack’s probably gonna get his ass beat within the next 2-3 chapters

"far better than baki!" Something bad is going to happen.
I think we should wait for a conflict in the next chapter.
