When I saw the title of the chapter I thought “wait, you mean Nekotofu got the right to use Guilty Gear in the manga too? We’ll get to see Mahiro play as Bridgerton?”

I’m not disappointed, I just had too high expectations
Yeah I was hoping the same, or a joke about it. It appeared a couple of times in the anime

To explain, the JP title for the chapter is more of
"Mahiro and Heaven and Hell" but that's a grammatical mess in English (You could write it as "Mahiro, Heaven, and Hell" but that would break the chapter naming scheme) so I went with "Heaven OR Hell". I figured it might cause some misconceptions thanks to Guilty Gear, I should have probably made the TL note about THAT instead.

"even the taste is better than when i was a guy!"
and then people wonder why mahiro is read as trans
Because they are wrong, self-inserting, wish fulfilment and head canon, character calls himself a man multiple times oh wait she is trans she identifies as a man despite being a girl.
I had some sashimi for dinner it was awesome what did you guys have

I really don't like this trope of accidental culinary abominations. Those exquisite disasters would take talent and hard work (in all the wrong direction), not just being clueless. Also, apparently Miyo doesn't know you should break eggs before cooking. That's even more incompetent than "cutting cookies with a bowl" from the anime.
We could've had a bonding chapter with Kaede teaching Miyo how to cook slightly less terribly, but alas, all we get is silliness and flanderization.

That grumbling aside, I liked the little details in this chapter. Like how Nayutan kept the mesugaki routine with Mahiro, or how she armed herself with a pot and a ladle before going to rescue Momiji (...did she walk all the way from Mahiro's place like that?). Or how Asahi has PTSD.

I've read that children and adults have different sense of taste - for example, children prefer sweet stuff much more than adults (kinda obvious I guess). This handily explains why Mahiro enjoys sweets more now, although having a brighter outlook is a big factor too.

I'm not sure if in the end Mahiro is praising Mihari's cake so she doesn't feel bad, or if he's traumatized by what just transpired and a proper cake feels like a blessing. What do you think?

Finally, I started Blue Archive recently, and Miyo and Juri definitely have the same spirit animal (probably a tentacle pancake monster).

Nayutan with the pot and ladle was super cute, I almost wish she kept that look for a little longer.

I would also eat Juri's cooking, for the record. I was trying very hard to not reference Pan-Pan on the TL notes page hahah.

Personally, I take Mahiro eating the cake and praising it as making sure Mihari doesn't get the wrong idea and feels rewarded for her efforts since it was a kind gesture. The tears thus being from the pain of having to eat -more- cake in the process.

That weird cake straight up looks like a stickybomb from Team Fortress 2.
I was kind of expecting - and hoping - for it to inexplicably explode into a culinary mess.

Imagine if the bomb cake had pressurized cream inside that exploded when you cut it lol...
