It's no mystery. It's a portable fried pastry covered in sugar. It's delicious and easy.
Yes, but there are a lot of hidden "parameters" aside from the combination of flour, baking soda, water and, specially, the oil. In Spain, churros are relatively thin and sold by the dozen (usually with sugar or a cup of hot cocoa), whereas in Japan and northern Europe I have seen them being sold mostly as a single "chunky" cylinder (making me question why they use the plural form). I understand they are more easy to carry in that form, but the flavor and experience are rather different.

And, then, there are the Hitokuchi Churros that MacDonald's sells in Japan. A great idea... But no longer churros anymore.

That's the kind of churro that's most familiar in the United States, so chances are it's Americanization at work again. Or maybe it was Mexicanized first, and then just spread around the world by the US. But I'd be willing to bet it was the US because we've done it a million other times.

As for the plural form, in the US I've definitely heard and used the singular "churro". It's just one of those food types that we'll often pluralize in the abstract, like "burgers" or, maybe as a more similar point of comparison, "pretzels" or "pastries."

guess that the author will go with pretty girls can't be bad stuff, this is kind of sad i was really enjoying the story until now but this put me down really hard specially considering that she will probably remain in the group for a while seeing as how she knows mc secret, i really hope that at least the trash guy will suffer the consequence. Also Wridra just let mc get killed because of yes? hahahahhaha great friend

If my memory serves, Zarish gets mentally broken after the fight with mc and loses his rings of control, then Eve forgives him because she still loves him and the two leave together.
So Eve that helped him will come out without a scratch? this could be better but at least she leaves, thanks this arc lets me down but at least she won't become a recurring character (i hope)

@Katsora (idk why it didn't quote it) this feels at least somewhat more satisfying an end, i hope they stick to it rather than what some of the other spoilers have said alone

Alright, I'll come out and say this: mastering the language of a country in 3 years is no small feat. I speak 4 languages, and it took me a lot longer than that for each language I speak, and I still struggle with Spanish (mostly because I don't like the language, but I can't understand it just fine).

Chocolate milk elf has all the right to brag about it.
They are probably comparing to the standard of elf, so it’s not impressive to them

You cannot help brainwash women and try to kill innocents and then get called a good person 😩
