I think we reached the point at which isekai writing has gone too far, and this is it.
Isekai protagonist scolds dumb natives and invents motherfucking SOUP

So this is the power of otherworlder advanced modern KNOWLEDGE...I fucking KNEEL

Japanese cuisine isn't even that great. Their best selling food is a weird """Indian""" curry. Just like the Brits dumped their stuff for the much better Chicken Tikka the Japs went after foreign food.
And why? Because Jap food is honestly not very varied or special. They obsess over ingredients sometimes to an autistic degree, but unless you pay an ungodly amount the food is basic, tasteless and without spices. You often pay for the name, not the taste.
Their main condiment is onions sauce ffs. I heard of Japs crying when they went to places like India, Thailand or Turkey simply because the food was on another level.
>"But Kobe beef and fresh fish sushi!"
Obviously great. Just costing 50 bucks for an outing as well.
>"But I enjoyed Kaizen sushi in Osaka and it was great and somewhat affordable!"
Great as well and you're right. But just exactly what I said. How often can you eat raw fish and rice till you get bored?
I like me autistic Japs but the only people obsessing over it, that I have seen, are whites.
Imagine some Thais being isekaid and opening a restaurant serving just basic Thai street food and fucking people with their Thai songs. Now we're talking. Now we're in business.

Thanks for that one, Zig Forums.

We need the isekai protagonist that invents the methodology known as breathing. The natives are just too brain dead.
Joshua Taylor
Kobe beef is pretty overrated, it's something slavered over just by virtue of the reputation it got for being as exotic as it was expensive when it was a rare import. It's what I like to call a "gold leaf" ingredient: Worth nothing except to waste your money over prestige.
As for Sushi, I also agree. I do like sushi but at some point being uncooked fish makes those dishes plateau. The difference between crappy sushi and decent sushi is HUGE, the difference between decent sushi and good sushi is moderate, and the difference between good sushi and world class sushi is nonexistent except for how much money you're wasting and how old the faggot is who sliced it for you.

But she didn't.

Us small island peeps are always stealing other cultures shit. After all, we are just inbred fish people. Praise Dagon!
Kevin Anderson
You're right, more specifically she invented vegetable broth. That's so much better, right?
Juan Torres
Never watched the show, but I can't see how the none of the poorfag natives even try the broth left behind.
Cameron Ortiz
Their vegetables are more alive than ours, frankly I'd trust their food prep over mine until I can test it safely
Wyatt Rogers
Isekai already reached peak stupidity with Fishugi Yugi and Escaflowne. Before Isekai was even a genre term.
Gavin Garcia
Chinese food is better than Jap shit
Jackson Jackson
Especially the street food! youtu.be

Every time

Pretty sure their best selling food is sushi.
Joseph Gutierrez
Civilized modern Japanese always looked down on primitive medieval Europeans in this genre.

>best selling food is a weird """Indian""" curry.
The hell are you even talking about? I find it hard to believe that Japanese would even like Indian curry. If they did, why would the Japan have their own milder version that is so utterly different compared to Indian. Source or I’m calling bullshit
> Because Jap food is honestly not very varied or special.
Neither is American food. Or any food if you’re natively used to it,
They obsess over ingredients sometimes to an autistic degree, but unless you pay an ungodly amount the food is basic, tasteless and without spices.
They have those around the world (excluding Africa). They’re called “foodies” and you’re really over generalizing it.
Colton Rodriguez
it really shows you how little the average person's modern knowledge™ really amounts to
Jonathan Russell
It's not an Indian curry, it's actually a British interpretation of one that was transported as easy to use cubes by sailors and soldiers. It's a genuine left over from the Camp coffee colonial era, unlike modern British curries that are the inventions of second and third gen residents who wanted to bring home cooking into their restaurants and started a trend that ready meal chefs copied for upmarket exotic ranges, before takeaways became common place. Neither are Indian, more like the twice removed cousin of Bangladeshi food.

They literally put Indian in multiple quotation marks. It's as Indian as American pizza is Italian, which is to say not very much. Curry has been a thing in Japan since the 1800's. Literally 1 minute of googling lead me to sources of how Japan got introduced to curry.
Thomas Thompson
I think it was actually Zig Forums that caused that filter to happen
Joseph James
You don't understand. Soup is one of the most basic things humans have been making all over the fucking world for thousands of years. Even tribals made fucking soup.
Joshua Thompson
Its baffling how people who do nothing and know nothing tend to assume that they would suddenly be relevant in medieval setting. They just assume that locals are dumber than they are which, given how ignorant they are made to be, is not a good look for author.
Owen Ross
>Its baffling how people who do nothing and know nothing tend to assume that they would suddenly be relevant in medieval setting.
probably true for dumb shit Zig Forums neets, but there are a ton of people with an education in some technical field who'd be able to revolutionise the isekai world's thinking in their relevant fields, if given the chance
even with a basic engineering degree you'll probably know way more about maths, physics and material sciences than the natives
John Edwards
American food is objectively great as evidenced by how fat we are.
Levi Jenkins
We reached that point years ago. We’re well into “keep going and see what happens” territory.
Liam Brooks
I don't watch Isekai shit but I hear it all the time, is 'mediocre average person uses basic knowledge to revolutionise the world' actually a thing that happens? Wanna hear the most ridiculous examples

Nathan Ross
The issue is lack of tools and materials we take for granted.
Industrial revolution was possible because of advances in metallurgy and precision machining, a lot of the principles were known before there was just no practical way of making a high pressure system for example.
Modern engineer without electricity or powertools probably wouldn't realistically be able to contribute that much more than locals in practical terms. Not to mention you aren't going to make a transistor by yourself in a shed. We rely on giant supply chain and infrastructure we take for granted that was built through a process of incremental improvement across many branches and cannot really be replicated in place by one person.
Though admittedly there are some "easy" inventions you could bring.

>getting cripplingly addicted to fossil fuels and humans-as-capital
Kevin Morales
Why not? If we start earlier we'll have vastly more solid fuels to exploit, and we won't have gone through the societal changes that made literal slavery illegal. That way, plunging people into WAGE slavery will be a welcome breath of fresh air for them!
