@Zaperex tutturu~

 

[Liquidxlax]

paper thin bandit sounds delicious

 

[firosahoge]

I skimmed it. I only liked the goddess scenes. I guess i'm just a waifuholic

bouncing head

"It's good no one was hurt". Heh, not that I have sympathy for bandits, but they are still people, and I think a few of them got 'hurt'. I'd guess that was more "It's good none of you were hurt."

 

[Glomoro]

@Moridin69 Nobody's including enemies in their assessments for stuff like that. Human or not, fuck 'em. They're lucky they didn't all get killed, that's the kind of life you live as a bandit. If you don't succeed, you probably die.

 

[Winchan]

Spoiler

I somehow feel bad for these bandits.

Ahhhh~~ Karaage :<

@firosahoge

Seems so.. but I do miss the goddess too :<

 

[Manga-Titan]

Chicken karage!!!

 

[The5thSeraph]

Motherfuckin karaage again.
Is it all of Japan or just him? How can fried chicken even be so popular? It is literally the most disgusting thing I can think of. I'd rather lick a used tampon than even touch fried chicken.

 

[YeeTheKIWI]

@The5thSeraph I don't know why you are so upset that people have different taste prefrences.

 

[The5thSeraph]

@YeeTheKIWI
I don't know if you genuinely want to know or if that is just an indirect (read: dishonest) way of asking me to shut the fuck up.
So I'll just act like it was the former and tell you, and if you don't want to read it you can just not.

I can't abide fried chicken of any sort. I can't abide most other forms of cooked chicken either.
I'm not talking about taste. The smell makes me sick. Actually sick. I can't be anywhere near it. If people try to eat it near me, I have to leave the room, or else force them to leave the room.
Unfortunately it is also prolific. REALLY prolific.
London is absolutely infected with disgusting, cheap-arse fried chicken takeaway places, and every single one stinks. The smell permeates the streets to the point where I hate even going outside. I can't simply leave the room when most of the outdoors IS the room. They bring it on public transport, they leave the packaging lying about, and the stink gets everywhere. It is even worse than smoking, and I hate that too.

I've tried asking people not to. They laughed it off and continued. The idiots actually think I'm joking? I've insisted. They acted like I was in the wrong. I did get in a fight once because some guy insisted on eating chicken right next to me to the point where I was sick, so I was sick ON him.


So, simply put, it isn't just a matter of different taste preferences. Eating chicken is chemical assault at least as heinous as (if not more than) taking a drag from a cigarette and puffing the smoke out in someone else's face. Even in fiction seeing someone making or eating fried chicken of any sort makes me absolutely hate them. It is completely unforgivable.

 

[Chusep]

Lmao

 

[YeeTheKIWI]

@The5thSeraph Alright, so if chicken makes you sick to point that even seeing it in a manga can make you ill, why the fuck are you reading a cooking manga? Why put yourself through it if it's that bad?

 

[The5thSeraph]

@YeeTheKIWI
Don't bother trying to extrapolate random things on your own if you're this bad at it.
I told you the smell of chicken makes me sick. Discussing it just annoys me, unless I end up thinking about it enough that I remember the smell, at which point sickness. But generally all manga like this manage with endless chicken references is to make me hate the characters.
Anyway, I wasn't here because this was a "cooking manga". I was here because it is an isekai manga, and I mostly read isekai manga.
I really must stress though that even if a manga is a "cooking manga", it isn't a foregone conclusion that it is going to be an absolute fried chicken festival. For the record I've read Shokugeki no Souma and that didn't bother me much, mostly because there were far fewer references to fried chicken. This one just happens to be utterly cluttered to hell with karaage and pseudo-chicken, which given the full span of Japanese dishes out there, is highly unusual.
Assuming that any and all cooking manga are going to trigger me is just folly on your part.

 

[blipblopyourdead]

@The5thSeraph a random question and sorry for my trash puncuations, how does chicken smell like in ur perspective? i wanna know BADLY

 

[The5thSeraph]

@blipblopyourdead
... Like itself.
There is no non-tautological answer to that question.

 

[Pinbat]

@The5thSeraph

not all the karaage in this chapter was even poultry man. and in shokugeki there was like... an entire filler arc devoted to chicken karaage lmao, not to mention that apparently in the shokugeki wiki there's 22 chicken dishes

 

[The5thSeraph]

@Pinbat
Making karaage out of things that are not technically chicken but implied to be very much like chicken is NOT helpful from a personal perspective. Literally being chicken isn't really the issue. Being LIKE chicken is the issue. And obviously chicken is the most chicken-like thing there is.
