To be honest I always like the third edition tieflings in DND. Rarely uniform in apperence and typicaly evil it quite a deep set way. It wasn't that it's impossable to have a none evil one, but there evil was default and close to hardwired in
While I don't think it going to ruin the show, most anime demonkin typicaly have a human like mind and no issue learning human ethics... I much rather have ones who learning such would be the mental version version of climbing a cliff face! |

This was a pleasant surprise with some solid potential - yessiree, color me interested.
I think I will commit to this one as well! ^^ Must admit that one of the interesting things about the series is the premise of the story ... I could easily see a few ways the characters and material presented could play themselves out, and they all look interesting. XD

Interesting cooking series
From the summaries, it looks like all the food will just be common food we already know in "this world" But for the "other world" the food we have is made from technology and techniques they have yet to learn of (the other world is pretty much standard fantasy world living in medieval age) I think this series is just going to be a sort of story telling where each episode tells about certain people (or groups) from the other world that goes on adventures and ends up coming to this world to eat food, lol. Also, interestingly... why is this Restaurant the only portal to the other world? through the door no less... and the door is apparently everywhere spread out in the other world... wonder if they'll tell us later about it, or remain a sort of mystery... (tho we did get a hint about a contract with one of the six great dragon of the other world... and apparently she makes it out to sound like the Restaurant is part of her "treasure" and belongs to her... lol) |

Episode 1 made me have some questions...
1. How did the chef know how much to charge his customers from another world? 2. Do they all pay in silver and gold coins? 3. When the customers are about to have a fight.. they stopped when the chef told them to stop. Do they respect him because of the food? Or they respect him because they know he is protected by a dragon? Hmmm...

1) Because he is second generation owner of restaurant that runs several decades already, they had time figure things out.
2)Yes 3) No otherworld food is worse than any dragon. Even natural enemies ignore each other when ban is alternative... Quote:

EBI FRY!! heh, I liked that story, it was very ... random.
Also, apparently, this door opens on multiple locations in the same alternate world on a saturday, either inside a mine, on an abandoned ruin, or somewhere in the wilderness where somebody even made a cabin around the door. Or maybe the waitress and the dragon was in the same world, while the wizard, samurai and the knight are in another world? Does the snake person and that lion guy also live in the same world?

The treasure hunter became a regular (I guess all who know about the doors become regulars...) - I wonder what that means for her career? Did she also just give up on adventuring and stayed in the mining town, or did she learn the locations of several doors, like the samurai? I wonder if it's possible to use the doors to travel, or if you always exit at the door you entered from. |

Ep 02
Okay ... that was great. I am so totally sold on this one! Turned out to be better than I expected too. If the entire cour was filled with narratives like episode 2 I would be as happy as a clam. Part of me was just waiting for Ryou and Kirin from Koufuku Graffitti to suddenly walk through the magic door into the restaurant. Incidentally, I agree that the ED is quite a treat to listen to. ^^

Well, she doesn't need money in first place and estate build by her grandpa where Gold family lives is probably her home base. As for treasure hunting, you usually don't wander randomly. You have own channels and connection to get clue, then make preparation before actual travelling. So I don't think she need change anything.

Episode 2
It's nice to see treasure hunter Sarah getting screen time. Seems this show has a lovable cast so far with diverse personalities. The food this episode looked very ordinary tbh but I think the anime captured the texture and details well. The mystery vibe also is nice and I kinda like how the show even gave a glimpse of Sarah's childhood. Second half of this episode really gave more of an adventure feel. It's interesting that travelers, adventurers, and all type of people finding this restaurant .

Understand that the food IS ordinary. The restaurant is known to be affordable fare for local business people. But the point here is to keep the perspective of what a modern society can afford to produce compared to a medieval world.

Shripe? Is this the isekai version of shrimp?
Also, this episode reveals some interesting thing about shrimps and ice, as well as the absence of lemons in the otherworld. Come to think of it, shrimps and ice often show up in opposing climates; shrimps taste best in some tropical regions, while ice can only last long in very cold climates. Without modern technology, ice and fresh seafood cannot co-exist. Damn, I could use some tonkatsu right now. :Q
