Could anyone recommend a comfy cooking anime?

I've gotten recommened a couple, but most are like Food wars where I immediately got angry when a highschool girl started moaning 2 min in, is there anything that is just good looking food + an honest/modest reaction, repeat for 12 episodes and goodbye thank you for watching?

I don't like that reasoning. It's the same excuse which has brought things to where they are now, not even half as good as they used to be. You're just saying, "Look, it's current year..." I've been sick of that shit since the very first current year. I can't even get a good show with big titties in it because, "Hey, it's current year, we're above all that". As for me, toilet humor lost its shine when I stopped being a teenager.

Brother I am happy it is airing at all and is still spicy as fuck. I don't care if they took the nigger lips out. The rest is good. I was worried about far worse things they were going to do to it, and yet they didn't. I'm fucking happy

Should they make a slice of life or comedy in the style of Gintama anime based on this?

Is anyone actually watching the Nube remake. I tried the first 3 episodes because I got curious when I heard the company that licensed was just going to put it up on their youtube channel for North America and so far I think its good, but I'm gonna assume its like almost every remake and cuts out a lot of shit to fill a 12-24 episode run.

I still haven't gotten around to watching more than clips of it but there was last season's Food for the Soul, a slice of life anime about young women in a college "Food Culture Research" club that's an original anime production (with a manga spin-off) created by Non Non Biyori mangaka Atto.

That show food-wise is peak, it's just good-looking visuals with the occasional combat/world building to break what some people can say is monotony, truly peak, and surprising that it's getting a second season.

Would you say this is popular? Why are we getting their blood type and birthdays in the trailer?

They might be using astrology/blood type as a way for viewers to figure out their personalities quickly, birthdays are also usually a time for fans to spam fanart and merchandise for a character.

Yeah, Japan has been doing this for decades in anime. I saw plenty of shows in the 90's that gave off these stats.

Been watching NANA recently and its really good so far. If you don't know, NANA is about a 1950's trad wife who got isekai'd into the hellhole known as modern day Japan. She's shocked to find that Nip men don't desire a submissive, stay-at-home wife but rather a more independent gal. It's a touching story really, so I'm looking forward to it.

Having seen recent clips of dubs of recent anime series being shared online, and being shilled in some cases by so-called fans, it manages to surprise me, fully aware of how much dubbing has gone down in quality for the past several years, how every year the whole US dubbing "scene" finds ways to sound even worse and worse.

ADR and post-prod work for English dubbing is completely atrocious now, the edits are so jarring. It's like the editors, supposed professionals, aren't even trying. You can literally find amateur/indie animations on YT with better dialogue editing than the average dub of the past several years. A 14 year old boy with a copy of Audacity could do better.
