I was sitting down on my rocking chair whilst sipping a bowl of Ramen, Until suddenly out of the blue this disgusting show aired on TV. It made me feel sick, no quite literally it gave me an upset stomach for 3 days. In all honesty, If you want to produce a cook show, This quite frankly won't cut it. Never In my 30 years of experience as a well respected chef known across all the lands I've seen such horrid Concepts, This made me puke my guts out. The food cooked on this show remind me of my dogs feces, Such horrid site. My only advice to the young viewers and the next generation who would be bombarded with such ugly, distasteful creations is to Advert your eyes and never switch on the tv again, as this is clearly a violation of human rights I saw a piece of leg within the soup, I mean what kinda of chef uses feet as their ingredients, I should send my solicitor and my barrister and my lawyer to take legal action as this contraption was clearly an abomination. However as a faithful Anime fan I managed to get through 1 video and what was stated above was my thoughts based on my impression. I most certainly do not recommend watching this. Have a spiff day good sirs and madams. read more

I really don't know where to begin with this anime. To begin with there are several quite noticeable problems arising within the first few minutes of watching this anime. I will try and keep calm and give my review of this anime to spare anyone of wasting they're precious time that they could spend watching paint dry. First of all no one likes food critics to begin with and somehow the producers actually had the courage to produce this? I applaud them for they're bravery if nothing else. Second of all the food looked like something an inexperienced cook at taco bell made, and that's saying something. There are several food based animes which did really well but unfortunately this doesn't even come close. The plot line was weak as i often found myself drifting off half way through an episode, the characters did not admit any kind of likable aura or give off a persona of someone that is even slightly interesting. It found itself left wanting in several departments. Nevertheless it could of slightly redeemed itself with decent artwork but no, to no ones surprise that was quite frankly poor as well. So if you're gonna take anything away from this then please listen now, DO NOT WATCH THIS! save yourselves the pain, its too late for me so go on without me!!
