To think this would be the last piece of art ever drawn by Sazanami Konami.

In the tweet version of this, they wondered what the next 365 days had in store. I guess they just didn't know it would tragically be cut short, far before it was time.

I can only offer a silent prayer. RIP

    Funnily enough, someone in the Twitter comments pointed out how accurate this is; because of WWII rationing, the U.K. lacked things like spices, cheeses, and butter, and so chefs and cooks had to improvise, resulting in blander food.

    The extremely bland British food actually started a lot earlier than that, primarily in London and other very large cities. Before the invention of the railway, as well as modern preservation techniques, such as canning and later refrigeration, the quality of many foodstuffs could reach, ahem, questionable llevels, before reaching the consumer. Food was also expensive and wages relatively low, so many people could only afford food of extremely poor quality and low nutritional value.

    @luntoer can you provide some for adding this to the two pools?

    I only added this to Current Events a couple years ago. The context is in the translations. At the time, YAMAHA was holding an audition for voice providers for a new voicebank: https://twitter.com/Yamaha_JP_PR/status/1493406999219822594. The results of that audition was ultimately Fuiro.

    @CharleyDodger added this to Hilarious in Hindsight just today because in 2019, Crypton Future Media left the VOCALOID engine to develop their own in-house engine, Piapro Studio. It was big news because it meant that from that point forward, Hatsune Miku was technically no longer a VOCALOID (see Hatsune Miku (NT)). But apparently that project wasn't too successful because just yesterday, August 1st, 2024, they announced that Miku would be returning to the VOCALOID engine with her upcoming new V6 AI voicebank: https://sonicwire.com/news/blog/2024/08/superpack

    Wait, 80? I thought it was 100 each to make a GI plate?

    If you get 12k cooking points before the last gourmet checkpoint (Senior year Dec) you get a special success and the ingredients needed lower to 80

    I interpret this as particularly addressing the instance of you not upgrading garlic past level 2 because it's less incentivized to upgrade it over others to level 5; I constantly use the G1 plate on every URA turn and end up with a deficit in ingredients for in spite of the discount, pretty often too.

    For NNescio, Jnglmpera or any deep horse lore lover. Does this comic have any real life related? Found this on reedit, and the uploader caption said it RL related.

    I immediately use lens scanner to find source upload this here :ReinSmile:

    IRL Dantsu Flame retired with plans to become a stud, but they couldn't find any takers because his bloodline and body/conformation weren't looked at favorably (and Takarazuka Kinen was kinda pooh-poohed back then despite being a G1) so they un-retired him to run in NAR where he had a disappointing career so he was retired a second time only to die shortly after to pneumonia.

    I guess one could view the uma equivalent as retiring to get married only to be divorced shortly after... though not sure if this interpretation is intended by the author.

    Honestly I wish I could reborn as a cute girl with a loving family. Or, at bare minimum, reborn into a family without abuse. The cute girl part is optional but definitely necessary. Don’t continue the cycle of abuse guys
