If I could give this an 11/10 I would. As I read chapter after chapter of this I only become more infatuated with it. While it takes on more of an episodic approach in its storytelling, by god there is so much to get out of those short story bits. The way this manga tackles incredibly nuanced and difficult topics with ease while also not being curt and in your face about them is like a breathe of fresh air.
The art is also the perfect fit. It feels very rugged which matches the more mature feeling of the manga. Both the character design and
...
attention to detail in the world building is also something I heavily appreciate. Barely any panels from what I can tell use shortcuts in their creation and it feels like every single line was hand placed by the artist.
The world building is also amazing. While the setting is a pretty traditional fantasy fare, they make good use of that to tie it into the cooking aspect. Each dish goes beyond just being "delicious" and becomes more of an appreciation for the ingredients and the methods used to procure them. If I lived in this world I would go to this frontier every day just to hear about how they prepared that day's dish.
I just feel really attached to the writing in this and I hope this review gets more people to read this. It is an absolute gem.
