So Azuma made naan even though he'd never heard of it before... He reinvented it, basically. XD And it went with curry... Huh, pretty amazing. I can't believe he doesn't know what croissants are ;_; They're so delicious...

As a South Asian girl who loves her Naan and curry, I was thoroughly amused with this episode. xD

I also wonder if people are going to have over dramatic scenarios of what their taste-buds are going through every time they take a bite out of Azuma's bread. Well, I don't mind. It's ridiculously hilarious~

well, he was raised on a rice in the back country, and I didn't see any sign of a computer in his home, so its not impossible. I'm betting he invented it on his own though. which makes me curious as to how he'll justify it being Japan #?? ; )

if that guy would just focus on his own bread he'd actually stand a chance of beating the hero, though he'd still lose to the other two.

still wondering why there are so many characters. unless they suddenly decide to hire more than 1 person, they'll fade into the background in a couple of episodes. its even more confusing that they seem to be setting the girl up to be an eventual love interest (of the "nothing will ever actually happen" variety).

I wonder if he's ever written a cookbook? with 56 recipes he should be able to make a pretty good one, though he'd have to get someone else to adjust the timing since most people won't have magic hands to speed things up.

Funny episode, but I have one concern for this.. they should not show the Solar Hand on as early as episode 2.. it's ruining the anime for me..

Quite awesome episode, a great combination between actual development and humour! Really nice and of course those 4 would be chosen but this sure makes it interesting, I'm especially curious what role that girl will have in the story! Either way let's see how he'll make a croissant!

Came across the title in a list of "weird anime" and decided I would try it just for lolz. After ep1 I almost dropped it because it was boring, but then the beginning of the contest sounded promising, so I went on to ep2. This episode was so great I may actually watch the whole thing. So much pun.

Those 4 had the most interesting character designs so that automatically means they'll be important, and that instructor is really "eccentric".

Lol that was great! Lovin' Azuma Kazuma as the protagonist. Lovin' the reactions from the people too, after they eat his bread. Those never fail to make me laugh.

That guy using a sword to slice pan was hilarious, I bet he's the best baker of them all. That girl is a mystery too.

Whoa DIO calm down

That "nan" joke is hilarious xD

Kurowa-san xD

I heard if you don't have any inspiration whatsoever, your creative will run more wildly
In this case imagine if Azuma don't know about croissant
He can make something really creative, because he never know what it looked like

Oh man, this is really entertaining as heck. Especially the characters are hilarious.

Problem is, now I'm craving bread.

Alright, I found the weakest point of this anime: Kyousuke. I hate him already, what a jerk.
