"I know what it is I want to do."

With that declaration, Hans set forth on a new path in life. One that leads him away from the barracks and towards Izakaya Nobu, of all places. He's determined to become a chef, but Chief, Shinobu, and his father Laurenz might have some thoughts about that...

Oden, buridaikon, donabedofu... volume 8 carves a new step forward with a menu full of piping hot dishes for winter.

I think the one of the stories I liked the most in this one was the one between Hildegard and Maximillian as they are so cute :)
But the rest of them are also entertaining and it will be interesting to see if Hans in time gets to be a chief.

Nobu is a Japanese pub that mysteriously opened in the back alley of a fictional, medieval European town. The story almost exclusively takes place within the pub as we get to know its staff, and the new patrons with the guts to visit this peculiar location. Nobu is a pub with exotic food and drink, unlike any the citizens of this medieval European city have experienced....

Otherworldly Izakaya Nobu is a seinen manga based on a light novel series, Isekai Izakaya "Nobu." It's also been adapted into an ONA series (hello, Crunchyroll), and a television drama series.

This manga is hella fluffy, even the conflicts are light at heart and easily resolved. I love the sense of community and camaraderie. There are plenty of great characters, and we get to see them grow and change throughout the series. I like I’ve gained something with the completion of each volume… knowledge, a life lesson, or a sense of warmth.

Otherworldly Izakaya Nobu is informative on both a cultural and cooking front. It boasts Japanese, German, Italian, and French representation; I'm sure I'm forgetting some, and I expect more as the series progresses! The translation notes are a fantastic aid that I always enjoy digging into after finishing a volume.

If you like food based manga, or perhaps enjoy learning about other European and Japanese cultures, you’ll probably enjoy this series!

As for me, this is a series I plan to collect, though I am a bit sad that the more recent printings appear to be pretty different both the covers and the print paper.

เล่มนี้คนเก่าๆ เปลี่ยนชุดเปลี่ยนบทบาทกลับเข้าหลังเวที คนใหม่ๆ สลับบทมาแทน ยังไม่มีดราม่าอะไรเหมือนช่วงสลับฉากผ่อนอารมณ์
