Status Updates From Sensei's Mail-Order Food: T...

Yeah I am done for today.

He must be a man (crossdresser) right? Because of him saying: "Finally a real man in charge!". Not a trans-woman?

Such a shame though. I liked that they were so accepting of the fact she married a woman. Now it feels more like that character is the punchline of a really bad joke...

Maybe the playing with gender is more nuanced in Japanese?

🥹 that's lovely.

I adore Nakamura, Asumiko's art but this story is a bit boring. If you like food and take this in small portions, it is perfectly fine (boob fetish aside) but I'm just getting more bitter about the fact I cannot order all the food. 🥺

The kid is a brat.

Sometimes I cannot distinguish between good parenting, survival parenting, and very bad parenting.

"Yes, the image of a man well into his thirties having his heart skip a beat wasn't all that entertaining, but the fact of the matter was that the older a person got, the more sentimental they grew, and the easier their tears could be jerked."

That is a really weird sentence. Especially the last part? Translation error or a saying that makes sense in Japanese?

This chapter reminded me way too much about the time I learned about hucows... that was a weird rabbit hole to fall into.

I want to eat that Yoyo-men so bad 😭

"It was important for a man of Nakata's feminine disposition to maintain a healthy body,"

Hmm I think some different choices could have been made here. 'Slim figure' for example. Still something mostly women say but a bit less.. misogynistic? Sexist? Weirdly framed?

"A heavy-chested doctor did what to me?!"

Now why did I snorted at that? It is not refined comedy. This is on the level with poop jokes. Maybe worse because of the sniff of misogyny...

Oh man I think this part is full of puns! The translation is pretty good? But it just feels like I am missing some boob-related ones...

Sidenote: are puns (woordgrappen) truly where the Dutch shine? DISCUSS!

Huh? Did I missed something? Why was that situation a thing? His family seemed lovely?
