“` Take a bite of the rice ball in my left hand and the pickled cucumber in my right hand. I munch … It’s another one that goes perfectly with the chilled rice ball! Wow, is a whole pickled cucumber this delicious when bitten into! Munch crunch crunch munch “`
It’s convenient because pickling with rice bran is easy to do.
Is it delicious but hopeless?
>>2It’s not a positive way of eating…
It’s frustrating… but I can’t help but feel it!
>>6It is indeed despairing to think that it is being made possible by Yozan…
Poison, huh!
Desperately!?
Have more hope.
Look! My hands got dirty!
>>7Even dirty hands are delicious!!
It means that it’s so delicious that there’s nothing you can do about it, right?
Is that expression really that concerning?
>>8Because it’s not the correct way to use Japanese, nor is it a correct expression, right?
A combination that cuts off hope.
I feel like I’ve been in the protagonist of Battlestar.
>>10After eating
“Thank you for the meal, it was delicious.”
Are you going to shake hands with the person who made it?
It’s nice that the use of “despair” is positive, like the protagonist of Gyrozetter.
Uncut pickled vegetables and cold rice are probably a hopeless combination…
Words like “amazing” or “incredible” are now being used for positive things, so it should be fine to use “despairing” positively too.
I am in despair!
Joy like that of Enoshima
It’s frustrating… but maybe it’s okay to interpret it as feeling that way!
I think it’s reasonable to consider it a higher variation of “incredibly delicious” or “to die for delicious.”
It’s hard to tell whether you’re joking or if you seriously think it’s a funny comeback.
It’s like a fucking whatever.
Cold rice balls are delicious, aren’t they?
This can be understood if you know the premise of a middle-aged man who lost confidence due to complexes while living in the West and returned to Japan.
Why do I feel that this is delicious? → My roots are in Japan, and I was able to recognize that! I will go again!
“That’s the story.”
I see.
Nukazuke left whole, the rice still cold.
Even though there’s no manners at all, it’s still this delicious!
Aren’t you expressing that as hopeless?
I don’t really care, but isn’t the usual order pickles → rice balls?
I want to hold the rice ball in my right hand.
Desperately, you are beautiful.
I like the part where Mr. Kinjo happily says, “Why is something so simple like this leaf-wrapped miso so delicious?!”
I’m starting to crave rice balls…
Before this, I had a high-end French meal that Yamaoka presented, and after reacting that it was normally delicious, I had this.
>>29Once again, have you forgotten the essence, Shirou?
>>29If I can eat such delicious French cuisine in Japan, then I don’t need to go back to France! Yeah!
Is it really that easy to get caught up in just a simple emphatic expression?
>>31When considering the developments before and after, it can be understood, but combining the negative word “desperately” with the positive expression “delicious” usually raises some eyebrows.
I’m using it precisely because it gets caught.
>>33Super delicious!
>>31Today’s Japanese people are filled with self-centered mistake-finding.
I think it’s because I’m driven by some very dark passion.
>>36Dark passion!
>>31It’s not just a mere expression of emphasis.
Expressions of mere emphasis include things like “really” or “super.”
I remember reading a manga a long time ago where someone said, “The food here is incredibly delicious,” and another person replied, “Please stop using the word ‘crap’ to describe food.” It made me laugh so hard.
Reading the explanations so far, it raises considerable doubt that it’s simply interpreted as a strong emphasis…
At this time, it’s definitely effective to show a simple way to enjoy white rice deliciously.
I haven’t eaten rice lately, so it works even more.
I want to eat silver rice.
I think it might be questionable to dismiss “despair” as merely an emphasis expression both in terms of its literal meaning and its connotation.
What does it mean to be so delicious that hopes are dashed?
I don’t care, but it’s silent and calm except for the last panel.
Suddenly shouting “Uhoho!” is really emotionally unstable, isn’t it?
>>44I haven’t seen someone make a comment on food manga in a long time.
Let’s take a look.
>>45Is this how the opening of Oishinbo is like?
It’s hopeful, but it’s also a self-serving and convenient kind of hopeful observation…
So delicious it’s to die for!
Shirou, this is despair.
Turn end
It seems like you’re complaining about how much I helped you.
People who don’t realize they’re strange often assert what is normal.
>>53I understood that it got stuck.
>>56What was stuck was something I accidentally messed up myself.
I hate using “crap” for emphasis in a compliment in the first place!! BAM!!
>>54You’re so serious.
It’s a self-centered way of thinking that the left tends to fall into.
Plain white rice and pickles, which don’t try to be anything special, are the best!
I was only eating omelets and sausages, but pickles are good too.
The official channel of Oishinbo is posting way too much of the main content.
>ID:JfZFw88oThis is terrible!
>>59Idiot
You’re leaking shit.
This is Vietnam.
It really looks delicious; should I buy some nukazuke at the supermarket tomorrow?
I understand that pickled cucumbers and rice balls stimulate the hearts of Japanese people immensely.
When I do hard physical labor, white rice and pickles taste incredibly delicious…
It was a story that stops a successful designer in France, who is feeling homesick and wants to throw everything away and return to Japan.
It’s coming in and out…
The pickles eaten between bites of rice balls are seriously delicious.
Does “desperately fitting” mean that it doesn’t fit at all?
>>70Ah, that’s fine.
Two cucumbers for 96 yen at the nearby supermarket… Should I make pickles?
In English, it doesn’t sound that out of place, even when using “desperately” in a positive way.
English seems to be useful for anything since it has the word “fuck.”
Such a thing is delicious despair…!!
The ultimate vs. the supreme in Oishinbo is a layering of contrarian views.
It was becoming completely stripped of any cover.
Taste can be flipped in many ways just by changing your perspective, so it can’t be helped.
The upcoming season makes me sweat a lot, so nukazuke is delicious.
It feels like an intense desire that can’t be helped, doesn’t it? This hopelessness.
Fucking delicious!
Let me know when you have made a nuka bed that doesn’t smell and preserves the taste of the pickled vegetables.
I don’t care, but shouldn’t we eat the pickled vegetables first before the rice balls?
I wonder if it really is that much, but since this is the only story I know about this page, I’ll keep quiet.
Those who have poop on them definitely say things differently.
Is it that poop-covered ones are a type of nuka pickles…?
>>85I can’t eat that…
At first, I was just cursing Sanji.
It must have had a bad reputation.
Enoshima Junko was treated to a meal by Naegi.
Well, this is probably just plain delicious, or rather, there are no bad elements to it.
Poop?
It feels like there was a brief period when the phrase “despairingly” was in fashion.
The old man highly evaluated only Yōzan, but what’s also nice is that he sincerely appreciates that Yamaoka treated him to various dishes for his sake.
Because Yamaoka’s sense of defeat will intensify.
It was no good.
I have a stomach ache.
I couldn’t stand it.
Because it’s used in the sense of laughing at… here…
>>96It’s normal to have a stomach ache when you laugh… Have you never laughed?
You are a hopelessly beautiful person.
Well, having a stomachache still has a nuance of humor to it, so it’s fine.
Eating salted rice balls occasionally makes me go mmm!
Coming back from abroad might be the best!
>>99No, it’s nothing…
