How do you fail at using a knife and fork? Unlike chopsticks there isn't really any mechanical finesse to it, the only learning curve is so that you don't hurt yourself on the blade if you're using a sharp knife. Kids chopsticks exist because chopsticks are hard to use, kids knives and forks exist just so they won't hurt themselves.

Sesbian Lex?
Some foods can be hard to eat with a knife and fork but easy with chopsticks. For example, trying to eat a peanut with a knife and fork vs chopsticks.

That new hire just saying 'sup and everyone else standing there, dumbfounded :meguu:

That manga they talked about looks kinda spicy :meguupog:

I hope Houjou elaborates on her offer and explains her intentions after this chapter's cliffhanger.
Because, as it stands, saying how much gratitude you have for her father and how hard it is for women in leadership positions in the industry, while simultaneously proposing to scrap that position of Reina, is not a good look.

Thanks for the chapter!

Honestly, we'll have to wait to get the true intent of this other boss.
The whole discussion could have been a tool to get to the proposition part.
IRL, it would have been very rude/predatory

I also want to read Galactic Chronicles Jarionn, and I'm willing to bet Zurikishi already has sketches/story notes for it stashed away like one of the his other dozen unfinished series waiting for serialization.

The last panels made me think of that ancient "the time of Rukia's execution... has been changed" meme gif

Dang, she went for the jugular as soon as the opportunity presented itself.
More like the jugs-ular.

So, there are Japanese in my family, and surprisingly, it's actually kind of an issue.

When you're so used to eating in a specific way, the use of more occidental cuttelry can actually be a learning curve, because you basically have to unlearn what you did, and use a completly different set of motor skills.

My grandma, for exemple, is unable to keep a fork and knife combo in the same hands for all meal long and pretty often has to swap their position to do one thing or another. Using a fork and a knife can be surpsringly hard if you're not used to it at all!
