most of the end of chapter edits aren't great but I love this one on top of this excellent "terrible at cooking" shenanigans chapter

Normally, "haha this girl's a terrible cook" is such a tired anime joke that I hate, but the fact that Iruma is also bad at cooking and they then spend the rest of the chapter learning to cook together really turned this into a sweet chapter.

I was a little confused as well since the harvest festival had him and Lied making stew with no real problems and nothing indicated the taste was off. But again, maybe it's just his ability to forage mixed with the demon world botany that he's recently learned. Cooking by the book is still a different skill. And Amelie having to boost him is just adorable, their children are going to split the difference and be Alice's height.

Also just in general, cooking and baking are different skills. If you're making a stew you can go pretty wild and it's hard to make something genuinely bad, especially if you've got a variety of ingredients, but baking is quite technical and needs a reasonable degree of precision to not ruin what comes out.

And this chapter was totally adorable.

Yeah boiling the poo poo out of things is literally the oldest form of cooking and is basically impossible to gently caress up, whereas baking is precise enough that adding a little too much of a specific ingredient can make the resulting product almost completely inedible.

The whole thing early on about demons not having the concept of friendship seems at odds with the numerous and very natural friendships we've been seeing throughout the series, and not just with Iruma.

Yea, I thought the common relationship in the Demonworld would be rank based lackeyism with your "Friends" being the people who are ranked below you that dont mind getting bossed around by you. Everyone just looks like normal rear end friends tho

Right, but the overarching plot involves demons that believe modern demon culture has lost its way, and they seem to be focusing most of that energy at Babyls. Sullivan has probably been working on normalizing regular healthy friendships over time with the caste system being the main thing in the way, with Iruma teaching people the extra leap of 'real friends don't care what caste you are' in more explicit terms than the demons were really working with even if they were already approaching that result.
