Thank you so much for your hard translation work- and especially, as always, for the extensive contextual notes.
That's very reassuring to hear. I've always worried that my Storytime Gourmet Notes sometimes get a bit too long-winded, but it's just so interesting whenever the manga touches on Japanese literary history or folk stories.

The Storytime Gourmet notes are always great, and deeply appreciated! They really add to the reading of a chapter, and the cultural context of the larger story, thanks for taking the time to share them!✌️

(Also, "We'll stab him with cuisine." is an amazing line, masterful translation, and reminds me why I'll always come back to this series lol-- Yamaoka's goated and you're goated, thanks for the tl as always!)

No it ads a ton! This manga touches on a lot of cultural details that I really enjoy learning about along with the food. I think that kind of passion for the subject goes a long way, and makes the translated/localized work even more polished.
