Like others have said, as a person who once tried Koi, it's horrible. The fishy smell is hard to disguise even with spices, and the bones are numerous. The meat tasted a bit sweet but you can get that with other Catfish variants, especially the big ones from Southeast Asia.

If you still insist on trying Koi, use pressure cooker to break down the small bones, but be careful not to destroy the fish. Let it cool off first inside the pressure cooker before taking it out, and don't cook it for too long. And season them with herbs to drive away the fishy smell and taste.

I'm like the mc with jokes in irl lol.
Thx for the translation
Like sure, they've become friends, but they don't know each other that much to know when the other jokes about something, or even has a sense of humor at all.

And frankly, if you're working your way up from being friends to romantic partners one day, I'd advise not making jokes, at least not often. They'll never know whether you're serious about your feelings when the time is right, and some people (like myself), really don't want to play games with subjects like these.

The real fun and joking around comes when you tie the knot, or at the very least when you start dating, imo.

The point is that they're not actually as fancy as you seem to think they are. And in the first place, koi themself are sometimes seen as a symbol of Japanese culture, so it's not too strange to think a well-off Japanese school would have a koi pond. It's not normal, but it's not odd, either. It's just another thing they can have.

Like how a highschool school in the US might have a football field directly attached to it. It's not exactly what you'd expect to see, (instead, a separate field a ways away would be more common) but if you saw it you wouldn't be like "woah they just casually have a football field here," you know?
Wait hold up, nah you'd 100% expect a school here in the US to have a football field attached to it, that's not a good comparison bud, that highly depends what kind of sports team that school got, same how you'd see a gym with a whole basketball court there too, that is a very common thing for American schools, I said from my knowledge you rarely would see a school with a koi pond, but you'd see those often in old fashioned Japanese homes or at establishments like inns or corporate buildings


Plus you said it yourself, how it's not normal, but not odd which btw.....contradicts itself

Where do you live that it's abnormal for a highschool to not have a football field directly attached?? In the area I grew up, there were two school that had it attached, the rest were placed some distance away. I think you might either be misremembering or have never gone to any high schools besides your own, which had the stadium attached. I was in the marching band, so I went to most of the fields in my district in my four years of high school and only two of them were directly attached to a school.

Also, "not normal, not odd" is not a contradiction unless you think of "normal" and "odd" as a black and white dichotomy, which they aren't. It's not "normal" for a person's house to have green wallpaper, but it's also not "odd." It's just one of the possible things that that house can have. Neither normal nor odd.

And you're saying that "from your knowledge" a high school with a koi pond is real, but do you even live in Japan or have any connection to it? I kind of feel like your basing this on your knowledge that an American high school wouldn't have a koi pond, which, like, of course it wouldn't. So I don't think you can have specific "knowledge" regarding this unless you've actually been to some Japanese high schools and seen whether or not they have koi ponds.

The first sentence alone you somehow completely misunderstood what I said, I said you'd expect to see something like that depending what kind of sports team that school has, or did you just ignore me also mentioning a basketball court inside of a gymnasium


There's schools with baseball fields, schools with swimming pools if they have a swimming team


My point is having those additions to a school in the US is very common


Btw I'm not reading the rest of that cause you're just gonna keep twisting my words to your benefit

Excuse me? How did I misunderstand you saying, and I quote, "you'd 100% expect a school here in the US to have a football field attached to it?" And comparing a big-ass football field to a basketball court in a gymnasium is a ridiculous comparison. But also, I didn't ignore you mentioning the point about "what kind of sports team that school has," or did you think my marching band was just going to football fields just because? We were playing at the football games between our school and the opposing school. For away games, this means we were at the opposing schools football field, which wasn't attached to their school.

(Also, this is completely unrelated to the fact of koi ponds at Japanese schools, which wouldn't be strange to have because they're not especially expensive or fancy and are pretty strongly tied to the Japanese national identity.)

Anyways, I think you did read my comment, and actually just don't have anything to say to it. And, like, if you don't want to admit that you were wrong, that fine! But it's kind of dumb to explicitly state that your ignoring the other person's argument. Just don't say anything next time, and it'll look a lot more natural.
