"I'll make some food"

"Ah, no thanks"

-stomach growls like a fucking thunder, girl proceeds to blush like a tomatoe-

Is this some kind of japanese gag or smth? Feeding starving people?

 

[Oeconomist]

I have most definitely heard mine and others growl both quietly and loudly.

The concept of a growling stomach exists for a reason, or what, did you think it was a fairy tale just because you happen to have not encountered it?

Stop. I didn't say that no one's stomach growled; I objected to growling of stomachs being treated as if universal.

The trope of a growling stomach is not always a gag, and the trope of someone denying that he or she is hungry only to have his or her stomach growl is not always a gag; but the growling stomachs, with and without the prior denial, have been used eleventy zillion times in manga.

And we have the recurring feature that someone seems to be desperately hungry, and another person who chooses to feed that person first takes the time to cook something, instead of giving the hungering person something immediately to sate his or her hunger. I've never seen that behavior used as a gag, but it is so utterly idiotic that, were I an editor, I'd blow my top.

feels sorta weird that when a translator edits the manga to remove nudity everyone’s in an uproar, but when they edit the manga to add nudity everyone’s fine with it

Probably because it's usually far less jarring. People also complain about clumsy censorship (or censorship in general) when it's in the source. Though the only one recently I recall where the translator added censoring is that isekai village builder that's censored in a way that's on par with old school anime sloppily painted-on bikinis.

medieval food is absolute garbage its not a surprise if she does act like that

Medieval people did not settle for "absolute garbage". Why would they? Humans have loved to eat and loved to eat good food since before we became humans.

...How the heck did she figure out how to use a zipper?! Or rather, figure out that it's meant as a method of buttoning the clothes to begin with, and not just some odd kinf of decoration.

It was zipped from the start, so she might've just put it on like that. It's also much easier to figure out like that, compared to if you have to figure out how to attach it.

And don't forget chain mail and gambeson. Thought the plate cover is terrible enough that with or without those, she still screwed (not pleasantly)

Well, those weren't always used together, but if you had some half-plated gear like this you would complement with those.

For a 29-year-old, this dude is completely clueless about any foreign cultures, huh...?

Whatever these people say the art is gorgeous and I like this cliché.

Thank you for this chapter 🙏

TL-sama really going into detail on those nips

 

[YoraeRasante]

Her being amazed at the bath or the size of the house or whatever makes sense because those are technological advancements. But the food thing is always dumb because it's over the simplest things. It's not like he gave her an elaborate cake or a really fancy dish. It's a rice ball or miso soup and the fantasy people all cream their pants as if it's the height of cuisine. 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.)

Giving some mixed messages here, chief.

Medieval food was not that trash or gruel, from what I know. It was, however, VERY bland.
Spices had to be imported from most areas we consider "medieval" and thus were just for the rich and the noble, after all.

So, while I don't like how most people make them gush about japanese food, it becomes different when it is about seasoned food.

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.

Someone did not watch many cartoons as a kid...

Seriously, so many cartoons had growling stomachs treated as hunger. I remember that some had children (or children-like anthropomorphic characters) terrified of a monster, only to find out it was someone's stomach growling, for example.

Stop. I didn't say that no one's stomach growled; I objected to growling of stomachs being treated as if universal.

This is an universal thing, yes. Maybe not as commonly used as in manga, but still universal.

The trope of a growling stomach is not always a gag, and the trope of someone denying that he or she is hungry only to have his or her stomach growl is not always a gag; but the growling stomachs, with and without the prior denial, have been used eleventy zillion times in manga.

As someone pointed out already, your stomach growling when you are hungry and have the oportunity to get food is an actual thing too, even if not audible.

Well, in the first case it is a translator adding censorship at their own discretion. We dislike having things censored without the creator's input, after all. We even dislike it with the creator's input.

In the second, it is removing censorship - those scenes very likely already had the breasts drawn but would only be revealed later when a volume is released.

Plus, they admitted the edit. Most of the time I know of, the ones that censor try to hide they did so. Would not have done it unless you knew people would complain, would they?

I am more annoyed by the lack of info on the boobs' source.

 

[AV_AmerigoVespuchi]

Yeah but for good reason. It's annoying having these Japanese authors write these characters blow their pants off from eating something like a damn Japanese rice ball. Like calm the fuck down, it just a rice ball.
Just wait until they start making characters being amazed by Japanese water or some shit like that lol.

Don't give them ideas, but I think it's been done before, I can't recall where sadly

 

[MjolnirXX]

That notes tho

 

[havelmom]

the raws suggest a cute manga, no insane government agency labrat situation in sight, I'll tell you that

Look-up “universal”, so that you won't continue to contradict yourself and waste the time of other people.

(I won't pretend to know Portuguese; you should stop pretending to know English.)

What's the sauce for the village builder?

Saber Alter's nipples, huh.

If she cums her cunt out from eating SOPERIOR NIPPON HOMOLETE that's a insta drop from me, fam

This is not an airport, no need to announce your departure.

Now piss off.

Medieval food was delicious except for a couple of regions namely the British Isles.

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.

Because Japan is a magical wonderland where everything is perfect and amazing, I guess.

I think it's how the authors are wired. There's a YouTuber, I forget who, but they were brought onto a Japanese daytime show and were basically told that the more positive their response to something was, the better, even if they didn't actually like it. EVERYTHING had to be the best they've ever had ever.

 

[AnotherDuck]

Debatable. There are a bunch of strong-tasting vegetables, and some basic spices were available for most people. And salt, which is one of the best flavour-enhacing spices there is.

Censorship appears from chapter 16.

 

[Extreme-Tactician]

Why does Sera know how to speak Japanese quite clearly?

I am surprised that Jin's isn't more wary of her. He's just thinking Seraphim's a sheltered foreigner. But, I'm sure that he can get charmed by this foreigner!

Seraphim's so amazed by this new kind of farmer, who has high tech baths and amazing food. I'm sure she won't be missing the battlefields anytime soon.
