**Last Edited: 04/2018** Welcome to the Food Manga Thread, where you can talk about your favorite series that center around creating, or eating food and drinking booze (usually of the Japanese variety although other cuisines have a chance to shine). The art of people, fictional or not, going crazy over eating and drinking has been around for a while can be found in the form of dramas, movies, and celebrity shows from places such as Korea (who gave us muk-bang, where you watch the host eat a ton of food), Taiwan (ex. Eat Drink Man Woman), the good ol' USA (ex. Ratatouille and Chef), and of course, Japan. Japan, in particular, has quite the number of anime/manga series formed around the concept of creating, consuming and enjoying meals. Some food stories may have a plot, some of them are simple and straightforward. Some series will show off cooking and provide recipes, some are just about characters sharing and contemplating their dishes and the human connections they form. This thread is for helping your fellow ADTRW goons to discover new delicious food manga to take a bite into. Haha! What Do I Post?? Basically, talk about any anime/manga series that is about making and/or eating/drinking and maybe link people to newly updated chapters of said series. You can post food pic panels and anime gifs of food. If the food pic doesn't come from a series about cooking, what the heck, just post the picture and we'll drool like animals with you. Food pics of actual food you have created is not required, but is always welcome and even encouraged! You may talk about food and booze in general, but try not to derail too much. If these 2D creations start inspiring you to try and turn on that dusty stove instead of ordering takeout, check out the Something Offal (the cooking subforum) to see what you can pick up and learn on your own time! Go forth and feast your eyes and/or sit back and have a drink with food mangas. (Gifs from Shokugeki no Souma, Wakako-zake, and Silver Spoon. For more 2D food gifs you can go here: https://animefoodie.tumblr.com/) Compendium Food Manga Favs posted:Maiko-san Chi no Makanai-san (a very cute and relaxing manga about a young girl cooking for her friend and other maikos) There are other titles I've read of course, but those are the ones I personally recommend. Here are some Goon food series recommendations below. Other Food Series Recommendations posted:Misoshiru de Kanpai! (how many variations are there of miso soup good god - a boy's childhood friend cooks for him and educates us philistines on various miso soups) Compendium fucked around with this message at 02:30 on Apr 10, 2018 |

Food mangas tend to have a heavy focus on Japanese cuisine because duh. That said, here is a post quoted from hallo spacedog who has a full post and a topic on Japanese food if you're interested in exploring it or if you just need some clarification and context.hallo spacedog posted:

Thanks everyone! I'll make sure to add people's recommendations and correct the OP post accordingly. I'll add some more posting options too (like letting people post food pic panels and gifs from their favorite show or whatever).

I'm catching up with Sweetness and Lightning right now, gosh I feel happy and fuzzy inside The food art isn't the most impressive, but I still get the sense of deliciousness coming off the page since it's normal people making and struggling with cooking, not professional schmoes. pictured here, real fear towards a hot frying pan yum

I read all of Dungeon Meshi properly, I really love it. It's wonderfully creative with the fantasy/RPG setting and the dungeon crawling elements are done in such a way that it really makes me invested when it could easily be overdone and just the author sperging about the world building. The characters are lovable and I would like to eat kelpie meat now. I also read What Did You Eat Yesterday; Fumi Yoshinaga is a great writer of characters and character drama so those parts I enjoyed as well as the depiction of the gay couple just living their everyday lives and having to deal with social stigmas and challenges in their workplace. Ironically, I'm more invested in those parts than I was in the food preparation and eating which to me was sometimes hit or miss (the breakfast crepes were super good though) but it was pretty fun seeing Kakei budget his way through the market. So yes, it's good. Compendium fucked around with this message at 04:07 on May 27, 2016 |

Yeah, Toriko's fun, but it basically has no restraint which makes for a lot of huge explanations that are then overturned by some other world building/power leveling thing. That said, when those guys eat, they loving eat

Nondevor posted:Thanks thread for finally getting me to read Nobunaga no Chef. It's insanely good and I needed to see the results of Natsu's and Ken's reunion by yesterday. The whole volume scans were also awesome earlier on. Nobunaga no Chef is really great. I love Ken as a main character, he's so down to earth and I love how everyone thinks he's a huge weirdo who's so focused on food, but in the end, they can't deny he makes tasty stuff. That reminds me that I ever got to finish Muramasa, I loving loved the food scenes. Yes_Cantaloupe posted:I made vegan gyoza! Those look delicious! I do make a bunch of gyoza/dumplings from time to time, I haven't made a vegan version yet, but I want to because tofu as a filling, hell yeah.

Let's see if there's any new food manga or food manga chapters. > sees Bambino Secondo updated > scrolls past Actually, I lied, I checked out the chapter, it was bad when will they go back to the pastas instead of this troubled restaurant bs Spigs posted:Oishinbo is one of the first manga I ever read (still relatively new). I have always loved food and cooking so decided to check it out and loved it. Viz did collections grouped around specific types of food but ignoring overall story for the most part. Oishinbo's really good from what I was able to read. It's probably one of the most lovingly rendered depictions of Japanese foods and drinks and it's really thorough about it too.

Enhydra lutris posted:I am attempting to read Otoyomegatari; I enjoy the Artistic Detail and Intense Rendering; however I am not able to feel Companionable toward the Human Characters due to their distorted Faces; and over large Eyes; their Appearance is insectile and fundamentally alienating. Further more I am distracted by the presence of Japanese Honorifics [-chan; -san; -sama; etcetera) in the Script; the Setting is clearly Antique Caucasian or Middle Eastern and the Character Names indicate that a predominantly Turkic tongue should be found there in; in fact it is un feasible that these Characters would have any knowledge of Japan (then known as Nippon) or the Japanese People; much less that they should have sufficient familiarity with the Japanese Language to adopt Loan Words in the form of Honorifics; and the implicit Societal Order. This is a Grave Error; I can not abide it. I'd say you should post this over at the Historical Manga Thread, see how well that goes over for you That being said, there's not much to do if you can't get into the art (Kaoru Mori is one of the best manga artists and she puts a ton of research into her setting to accurately depict the fashion of the time, but if you can't deal with manga eyes, whatever) and as for the translation, blame translators, they're translating Japanese text that was written for a Japanese audience (maybe so the JP audience wasn't alienated and they could relate and understand the culture Mori is depicting). Otoyomegatari is sold in English by Yen Press (here's an Amazon link) so you can check out their translation to see if it jives with you more.

Xelkelvos posted:Surprised to not see Addicted To Curry not on the list. It is but the translators have also translated most if not all of the recipes in the collected versions which are simplified versions of the dishes in the series. I'll read it from time to time and the extensive number of curries in the series is really cool and tasty, but yeah it's the (and not even in the fun way like Food Wars, it's always girls getting the short end of the stick) which is why I wouldn't rec it personally.
