Well Enzo, there are a lot of people who aren't comfortable with physical humor, especially if the one on the receiving end is a girl AND it involves a fork.
Me? It's a slapstick comedy. This type of abuse is expected, as it's played for laughs.

Good to see I'm not the only one wondering why nosy girl gets so little screen time. I actually didn't know she was one of the OP singers. I take it the other two voices are Kuko and Nyarko? |

Don't be a hypocrite. This is the exact opposite of about 90% of romance harem comedies. There is certainly no shortage of females abusing males in romantic comedies. The difference is that in the former, it was an accident so the violence is completely unreasonable. In this case, she's being a pervert on purpose. If you want to further the comparisons, in romantic comedies where the pervert (no accident) tries to peep or grope, he usually gets beat up and tortured. Don't let your feminist (or is it "chivalry") blind you. |

It is weird that she is clingy because some research on the area says that that kind of mothers is sexually unsatisfied and they sublimate those urges into constant caresing of their offspring, but she supposedly returned from the 17 (?) honeymoon so she supposedly is sexually satisfied. ... ok, too much realism, back to your normal mayhem

I am annoyed at Mahiro. But this has nothing to do with how he forks Nya, or how he refuses her advances.
I am annoyed at his rejection of Space Meat. Look, I understand if he thought Nya actually carve up monsters she killed herself and serve it to him. As far as he knows Nya is not a certified butcher. But the fact is the Space Meat are hygienically butchered and packaged, and are apparently mass produced by reputable companies for consumption by most of the known galaxy. So what if it's space monster meat? He knows it tastes good, and that they are not poisonous. To demand that he should be fed only Earth food is arrogance. It would be like saying you wouldn't eat food that isn't produced in your own farm. Nya even bought Black Goat meat, which is supposedly some legendary delicacy. She is trying to introduce him to food of other cultures, and he is just brushing it off. That's just harsh.

@Vallen Chaos Valiant. i was going to post about it but didn't because I thought I was the only one that noticed. This is an example of an ugly part of the average japanese culture, most of the time they do not trust food made overseas. They are okay with gaijin food done with local ingredients only. I remember several years ago seeing on TV how after a rumour that local rice harvest was lower than expected the goverment released for local consumption some rice reserves and people rushed to buy it, even though perfectly normal korean rice was sold in the same store O_o;

Don't you mean speciecist?
I think there's quite a bit of cognitive dissonance going on with Mahiro. On one hand, he likely thinks that Nyarko is cute and likely doesn't mean him harm (well, not directly anyway). On the other hand he knows that she (and her friends) are aliens whose default form isn't even bipedal or humanoid, and what's more he's grown up on Lovecraft, which adds an altogether different level of issues.
