Makabe’s whole journey with Yamabushi and Fried Rice Boy was pretty hilarious. Bro repelling off the cliff side for that one stalk of green onion, furiously prepping the rice, aaaand making the most mid fried rice ever lol. Totally killed his mojo too. Poor guy!

Watching Niikura eating instant ramen like that felt so…intimate. Love how she finished that pack and then went to inhale gyoza like a demon lol.

The barber is a real G. Bro’s just fixing the whole city using payment received for his free cuts. Look at big man drinking from his chalice haha.

The quiz game was a great little post credit bit. Nagumo just keeps getting those damn pillbugs back doesn’t she? lol

LOL at the guy snorting the instant noodle condiment packet like he's snorting cocaine.

Do you have a video source for that gif clip?

Someone posted that to reddit a very long time ago. I've occasionally tried to source it but haven't found an answer.

Oh! I'm old, I know the answer to this one.

Once upon a time, there was this meme (before they were even called memes, as I recall) that just went:

  1. Boil water
  2. Eat block of noodles
  3. Drink boiled water
  4. Snort flavored powder
  5. Fuck Bitches

That was enough to pass for humor. Anyway, more than a decade ago, Boss Ramen made a commercial based on it.

It's very common in Japan a ramen set comes with a small bowl of fried rice.If you add the gonza is commonly exceed 1500yen. Also 1000yen is considered a line between affordable and too expensive so nowadays many ramen store are closed because they can't raise the price to more than 1000yen and the ingredients cost are rising fast.

That was the most lovingly crafted eating scene I've seen since D4DJ.

My man straight up dropped Terminators "I'll be back" line and jumped off a cliff!! Fried rice ended up being mid though.
