Apparently it's a thing more specific to kaki, the Japanese persimmon. Based solely on their outward appearance, I always figured persimmons to be similar to tomatoes, so I was thinking that peeling one would be kind of disastrous. But I was wrong, and the flesh is far more solid.
The ones I've had, not sure if they're the Japanese kind or not, but they're a little softer than the walls of tomatoes. But they're about as not necessary to peel, since the skin is about the same.

Very tasty, either way, if you like sweet fruits. I'd recommend trying some if you can get your hands on them.

So I suppose oni's soon?
Will be interesting to learn their side of the story.

Plenty of good reasons, for example having a cat pfp vs a dog pfp. A splendid reason to shed the lubricating blood of the war machine.
Unless the part where oni steal human women to rape and breed them is all human propaganda the author will have a hard time to get the readers to sympathize with them

i dont know about Japanese persimmons, but in Cambodia, the persimmons we eat are firm, crunchy almost (not sure if we just eat them before theyre “ripe”), and peeled/skinned

He's going back to the country from the start of the story already? I thought his goal was to rejuvenate the sword style in this country and/or try to find a resolution to the war
Going on the decades-long journey back now seems premature, unless I read it wrong

Fighting isn't how people move forward. Preparing to fight, maybe, but most of all, just living and being curious about the world.
To be fair, that was the Titan talking, Aesir made clear the Titan is beyond conventional morality, so he probably don't even really understand how regular people think and sees the world, he don't  really understand why fighting happens.
Sometimes this manga gives me a sense of melancholy
Pretty sure that's intended reaction lol.

Also, am I the only one disappointed that the place was called Hakurei and we see no Reimu? Almost make me drop the manga! sneers in disgust

It depends on the species of persimmon, but yes, many of them are crisp like an apple.
However, if you let them ripen on the tree for long enough, the skin will turn red and the flesh will soften to a jelly or grape-like consistency, and at that point it's like eating honey.

A fully ripe persimmon is so delicious, but they spoil quickly so you can't buy one like that at the grocery store.
