IF you want to build a ship, don't herd people together to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.

yakitate japan

August 26, 2007

i just realized how long it's been since i last posted anything remotely related to anime, so this time i'm revisiting a goofy series that has made me smirk and smile despite the utter silliness of its premise.

Yakitate Japan (should have been more aptly called "ja-pun" if you ask me) is surprisingly entertaining and funny. seriously, i didn't expect that a lengthy series about bread and bakers would be that interesting, but you'd be amazed at how much sugary fluff they can pour into a single bun.

the play on words (you have to read fast to appreciate the humor in some of the gags the writers came up with) and the characters — particularly the judges — who are cast into transports of joy and blissful trance in reaction to the taste of baked goodies are simply out-of-this-world.

talk about absurd!

it looks like the series (3 story arcs, so far) isn't winding down anytime soon. which leaves me wondering what the scriptwriters will do next to complement what they'd already done…

more importantly, could those over-the-top gastronomic reactions ever be surpassed? or is there anything more unlikely than a sunglass-wearing, black-shirted muscle-bound baker with an afro hairdo?

Share and Enjoy:

haha! daming ganyan, cooking show/adventure themed anime! weird nga eh, sobrang drama?! nag-a-ambisyon na maging dragon ball pero tungkol sa unagi, udon, etc., - pero walang tatalo sa Iron Chef (ung real-life chefs na naglalaban!)

i’d seen some anime features about cooking but i think this one takes the cake basta reaction ang pag-uusapan… the first time i saw it, my jaw dropped, then i doubled over in laughter. it was just too absurd for words. and you should the closing clip where this afro-haired baker goes disco dancing

maganda ba yung Iron Chef? (welcome back btw t2rad)

loved this anime too. and I agree, that dancing afro guy was hilarious. couldn’t finish it though despite the unbelievable reactions. got tired of seeing the many variations of bread the kid could come up with. Cooking Master Boy is still tops I think, with this one coming in at a close second.
