Title: Gourmet 350 The 'Wait' Ingredient!!
Author: Shimabukuro Mitsutoshi
SFX: SHUBABA
Yuda: Mm...?
The number of food spirits has gone down?
Damala: H-Hey!
Yuda: Hm?
Uoh!
Chef Komatsu?!
He's up against all those by himself?!!

SFX: SHUBABA
Komatsu: ----------!!
SFX: LICK
Koma: The taste is weak...!!
No... There's almost none at all...
The taste of the ingredient is weak, but it felt like there was no "taste" I could sense with my tongue in the first place.
It was like eating clay...
No matter how many ingredients get sent in here through Whale King Moon's stomach,
if they have no taste, the Food Spirits won't be satisfied.
I need to make the tastes bloom.
Another is a unique ingredient that comes to this world with the same savory taste.
In other words, it's a bridge between this world and that one.
Another...!! That's what I need to cook first...!!

Page 5:
Don: Whuh?!!
SFX: AAAAA
Don: Ooo!!
Could that be...?
Another "adults"?!! [quote bold]
Komatsu: Huh?!
Asa: It couldn't be...

Page 6:
Asa: When an Another passes the speed of light
the fantastic speed makes its skin shed over and over.
Those thousands of shed skins will maintain their taste and continue to swim.
And among them, one is said to become the next Another.
What we have captured and cooked is one of those young Anothers.
Such large Anothers
must be "adults" that fled into the 'Soul World'!! I've never seen one before...
But why have so many adult fish suddenly shown up here...?
Kaka: They were drawn here...
Ingredients choose
the chefs themselves.

Page 7:
Komatsu: Kaka-san!!
Kaka: Komatsu-san... You almost forgot about me just then, didn't you?
Komatsu: Ah, I'm sorry! That was a close one...
You were a huge help to us in 'Area 7'.
The one that taught us how to capture 'Pair' was... [This is the small bubble in the background. Skip the rest as they're like 90% obscured.]
Um...
What about that injury that monster gave you, are you okay...?
Joa: Food Spirits...
talk too much.
Kaka: I was originally killed by the Blue Nitro in 'Area 7'...
I was already dead.
In this world, no matter how many times you're killed, it makes no difference.
Now then,
let's get cooking.
That is the 'Kitchen of the Food Spirits'. [quote white]

Page 8:
SFX: OOOOOO

Page 9:
Komatsu: U... UWAa!
That's amazing!
Damala: Ooo!
Komatsu: It really is...
a kitchen in the 'Soul World'...

Page 10:
Kaka: In the 'Soul World' where tastes are meager...
this is the place where one is able to cook Soul Food to have some at least some good taste.
It is also where we will cook Another.
SFX: GOPO GOPO GUH GUH
Saru: ........
But...
This is unbelievable...
The fish that travels faster than the speed of light, Another...
has really come to a standstill... and entrusted itself to us...?
SFX: AAA
Don: AHM!!!
Komatsu: !!
SFX: GACHI (CHOMP) PYU
Don: WAhhahha! Not gonna make it that easy, are ya?!!
Asa: Don Slime!!
SFX: YURA...

Page 11:
Don: I'm going for a quick look for some humans (souls).
I'll have clones of me around making sure the Food Spirits don't make a ruckus.
So you all can relax and focus on cooking.
SFX: ZUZU...
Asa: Honestly...
Yuda: Let's hurry and get cooking.
We may have an unlimited amount of time...
but we had best hurry
as we do not know how long our spirits will hold out.
Asa: Normally, the process for cooking Anoter
begins after it's fled at the speed of light
and has gotten 'exhausted'. [quote bold]
First, that will require 10,000 years.
Yuda: T-Ten thousand years?!
Asa: The project we have going on in our country
was mainly just doing the beginning of the process of cooking Another.
Though this time, that work is unnecessary.
We will begin from 'removing the scales'.
Removing the scales takes approximately 50,000 years...
After that is removing the internal organs and washing the dark-red flesh, which takes 100,000 years.
Guys: All that for preparation...?
Komatsu: Um...

Page 12:
Komatsu: It won't...
take all that long...
I'm sure...
I can cook it
much faster
and make it really tasty.
Chiru: I've been waiting for you
to say that
Komatsu-san.

SFX: KOTO KOTO KOTO KOTO (BLUB BLUB)
Kaka: Normally, the primary boiling takes about 300,000 years,
but like this, it should be done in around 15 years.
Yuda: So it's still going to take 15 years, is it...?
Asa: Waiting is part of the job.
The job of a chef.
Komatsu: That's true.

Page 14:
Komatsu: Asarudy-san, why do all of you...
always wear those masks?
Asa: Hm?
Well, it's true that our eyes have adjusted to Blue Grill long ago...
But these are not our original bodies... [original in italics]
Every time we are resurrected, we are born again in new bodies.
So of course, our "faces" are different each time...
By using masks, we can at least have that as a constant...
Still, we forgot what our original faces looked like
long ago...
We only maintain our Gourmet Cells' "food memories" when we are reborn.
Everything beyond that...
is completely forgotten...
AAaaA!
UAAaA!
---dy
Asarudy!

Page 15:
Komatsu: If Another...
makes new tastes bloom...
then does that mean that there were "tastes"
that even ancient Gourmet Cells didn't originally know...?
Or did they just forget them?
Maybe what Another does
is it makes Gourmet Cells
remember 'tastes they forgot'.
So maybe when we eat Another,
we'll remember something along with the new tastes!!
Asa: .........
Komatsu: And then
those food spirits with those somewhat gloomy faces
will remember the smiles they forgot!!

Page 16:
Asa: ........
I have a feeling I know...
the reason Another
chose Chef Komatsu...
I think I know the reason it wants him to cook it...
Bring back memories... huh?
It would be nice
for there to be such a miracle...
Komatsu: Asarudy-san! I'm sure the reason Another...
told us how to cook it was because of that!!
It really wants everyone to know how it tastes!!
So let's give cooking it all we've got!!
Then we'll get to taste it all we want!!
Asa: Yeah!
That sounds good!

Page 17:
Narr: The cooking of Another that was supposed to take 600,000 years
was cooked by Komatsu at an overwhelming speed.
Guys: So that's Komatsu at work...?
This chef...
Yuda: You could say that simplifying cooking and reducing the time needed to cook it
is Chef Komatsu's specialty.
Narr: But...
Compared to other special preparation ingredients he'd cooked in the past,
with much of the preparation of cooking Another being comprised of 'waiting',
there were only so many opportunities for Komatsu to make use of his skill.
Even in this 'Soul World' where they theoretically would not age,
perhaps because of the overwhelmingly long time it felt to them...
the toll all that time took on everyone was plainly visible...
And when their spirits...
had finally reached their peak...

Page 18:
Narr: What everyone saw before their eyes
was Komatsu focusing all his attention on finishing up Another...
and one more person----- [Italics]
Chiyo: That person...
Narr: From when they entered the 'Soul World'
the amount of time they had felt...
was in fact 65 years----

Page 19:
Komatsu: Everyone...
it's done...
Side: What will the taste and its effect be...?!
Komatsu: The cooking of Another
is complete!!!!
SFX: WAH
