So that explains how Leon was able to pull off a win in the last chapter. I had a feeling Mira wasn't trying 100%. A true copycat chef would have easily detected Leon's trick.
Well it was canceled in the very next volume. It's possible that things had to move very fast at this point because the author was told in advance they were getting the axe.
When a manga is rushed, everything ends up falling apart.
@cosmicwitch: the series just focus on the advancement of the story and character, also it's quite old already, so if it possible please do not judge it with today's logic
@CosmicWitch So you don't believe in love at first sight huh? And don't judge things by your personal feeling. For someone who was abused and never feel any kindness her whole life like Mira, the first person who acts kind to her will leave a powerful impact. The same thing actually happened to abused children and women.
@regalia001 I'm currently going through the raws. The artwork has significantly improved IMO, with more depth and detail overall. Also, Mao is older in the new series, so he looks more like a teen than the callow kid he is here.
