Her armour is crap, and she should be wearing an arming doublet underneath. Though that's on par for manga.
The funny part is that they often have a lot of Japanese mannerisms and values, but specifically not the things they're supposed to be impressed by. Medieval people weren't particularly concerned about nudity (in the right contexts, and bathing was one of them).
And she's never heard birds or insects before. Unless she's extremely familiar with them and can separate all species to the point she's confused to hear other sounds. And never had comfortable clothing.She already had a minor gushing moment over the crisp, fresh Japanese air at one point. Like... you came from a magical pre-industrial society, there's no way your air is somehow grossly inferior to a modern industrial power's countryside.

Peasants didn't eat that poorly either. If you had enough freedom to choose and cook your own meals, you ate decently enough. If there's one thing humans excel at, it's making inedible things edible, and edible things tasty.Even though medieval-level food wasn't all trash or inedible gruel especially as long as you were anything above a peasant (like, say, a royal knight.)
I mean, my stomach sometimes makes sounds, but it doesn't have anything to do with being hungry.Bad enough that manga impute growling stomachs universally to the Japanese; idiotic that they impute them universally to mankind. My stomach has never growled, even when I have gone for days without food. I have never heard the stomach of anyone else growl.
