This episode we’re talking Anime food, looking at Japanese food culture and its place in anime and manga.
We speak with Associate Professor Rebecca Suter from Sydney University on the importance of food in Japanese culture.
In Manga-Kai we look at 3 food focused mangas, with Dagashi Kashi, Miss Koizuki loves Ramen Noodles and Dungeon Meshi on the menu.
Then it’s delving into one of the foodiest of all the animes – the sometimes-confronting Shokugeki no Soma AKA Food Wars.
In our first ever Live-Action segment we look aat two amazing adaptations from Netflix – Kantaro the Sweet Toothed Salary Man and Samurai Gourment.
And we round out the episode explaining where the phrase “Good Cabbage = Good Anime” came from!
