@Kaarme This was explained way back in Part 1 that throwing out the broth is the norm there. The author didn't use Isekai setting for nothing, it's there to give the story a bit of illogical stuff so that MC can apply modern knowledge to improve on it.

@APSINTHOS
Thank you for the channel recommendation.

@RonBWL
Maybe we can blame something in this crazy religion's teachings for those things, what was shown til now is almost illogical for a religion in our standards.

 

[RonBWL]

@mickhail My point is, we're reading an Isekai fiction in which anything can go, so trying to apply modern knowledge on it doesn't work and would be really unfair. After all, without those illogical settings, there's nothing for the MC to shine.

@Kaarme @RonBWL It's not really out of sense back then, considering the hygiene standard are extremely low back then, boiling to purge out bad stuff from veggies. Some very old recipes books irl include this step in some of their recipes.

@Kaarme I think its posibble they dont eat the broth if it is considered 'strange' in their society, they dont want to risk their health after all, because it is very expensive to hire a doctor (even if they can that money can be used to buy food too so many people chose no to treat themselves and sometimes it lead to death). Thats why poor people in the past pretty much life a stagnated life and life by the rule they have for generation.

@pbrgh
It's really a shame it does that, so much good stuff gets left out.
The worst I felt it did was with the last episode of season 2

Spoiler

The way it just rushed through the scene with her past memories D:
Was really looking forward to see the priests reaction on how she could use "magic" so effortless to create light in an entire room.
And his reaction to how everyone dressed so inappropriate yet still so rich.
And worst of all that she didn't say goodbye to her mom :'( but that seems more like a creative change, to avoid making the magic tool extremely powerful for getting knowledge.

I love the relationship development between Myne and the orphanage kids

 

[Wildfire]

@APSINTHOS @RonBWL @Kaarme
Another thing to note in this setting is, people inside the town aren't really starving, they are under some form of protection from the lord after all, even if it's done very poorly.
It would make sense to avoid horrible tasting food that might lead to sickness.

Thanks for the upload

@Wildfire @APSINTHOS I suppose I could accept some tradition aspect to it, especially if instead of the vegetables we know, they had some stuff that contains poison removed by boiling and throwing the water away (like at least some fungi works in RL). However, keeping that in mind it's still weird Main can simply make a soup and people reckon even nobles would eat it for the novelty if nothing else. Like, where did all those concrete considerations suddenly disappear? If people throw the broth away, it's for a reason with 100% certainty. We are talking about food and survival here, after all.

I'm not sure how well off the commoners exactly are. Sure, there don't seem to be famines, but the general level of wealth is quite low for most of them, by the looks of it. Even the orphans in the mighty temple are accustomed to hunger if they aren't directly serving under a blue robe.

@RonBWL I'm not greatly bothered by it. There are far worse isekai out there. This is a very minor offender in that sense. Plus is vastly balanced by the absence of glorious Japanese dishes banzai. Main adapting the available materials to make any dishes she knew about from her previous life (like pizza), is something that makes perfect sense, instead of magically finding ingredients for purely Japanese food, which would then be instantly praised to high heavens by the locals.

That cut with Gil and Myne smiling was precious.

 

[Vofuro]

I always thought Delia trying to secure her place by seducing was a joke, that no one would take her up on it because of her age.
Seeing how experienced and confidently she hopped onto the guy though and how she was told this wasn't required... Omg. It wasn't a joke, now was it?

 

[pajangan]

The pure smile of temple girl,never weared those clothes..

 

[Morose]

@Vofuro: Considering that years before it was common for Girl's as young as 6-7 years old (and even in some cases less than even 1 year age) were used to get married away quickly, trying to seduce men from a younger age (especially for a orphan) doesn't really feel that odd, if one is considering there future.

 

[Zanagun]

Did the author just casually reveal that this church do child posititue to gain favor from noble?

and the fact no one even mc bat an eye.

 

[welcome2atlantis]

Eh... was it okay for the guest to whack the host's attendant in the head? <

 

[illusion_moon]

Gil is actually quite brutal. I guess a child’s honesty is something to be feared.

 

[rodizipa]

@Zanagun as if they cared about it in middle ages
