[01:32] Towner A
    Myra!
[01:34] Towner A
    Three each of the knight's
    stew and brown bread.
[01:36] Myra
    Sure. Coming right up!
[01:39] Towner
    Two of those over here, too. With extra meat.
[01:42] Myra
    You got it!
[01:48] Myra
    Dad, five more knight's stews.
[01:51] Myra
    Extra meat in two of them.
[01:53] Laury
    Got it.
[01:58] Laury
    Here are the extra meat ones first.
[01:59] Myra
    Thanks.
[02:02] Myra
    Thank you for waiting.
    Here's your knight's stew.
[02:05] Myra
    Enjoy.
[02:07] Towner B
    I've been looking forward to eating this!
[02:10] Myra
    Thank you very much!
[02:13] Towner E
    Great meal.
[02:15] Myra
    That's exact change. Please come again!
[02:19] Laury
    It's finally calmed down a bit.
[02:21] Myra
    I'm exhausted.
[02:25] Laury
    I'll handle the rest.
[02:27] Laury
    You can take a break until the evening shift.
[02:32] Myra
    I'm so tired.
[02:37] Myra
    After Dad learned how to make knight's stew,
[02:41] Myra
    our lifestyle turned around.
[02:44] (Flashback) Myra
    What? Knight's stew?
[02:46] (Flashback) Laury
    Yeah.
[02:47] (Flashback) Laury
    I just offered them 100 silver,
[02:50] (Flashback) Laury
    and they happily taught me how to make it.
[02:52] (Flashback) Myra
    What did you just say?
[02:55] (Flashback) Laury
    I offered them 100 silver—
[02:56] (Flashback) Myra
    A hundred silvers?!
    That's half a month's earnings!
[02:59] (Flashback) Myra
    You know we can't afford that, don't you?!
[03:04] (Flashback) Laury
    I'm sorry I didn't talk
    to you about it first.
[03:08] (Flashback) Laury
    But...
[03:09] (Flashback) Laury
    It'll be fine! Don't worry!
[03:12] (Flashback) Laury
    We can make 100 silver coins back in no time!
[03:15] (Flashback) Laury
    Did you see how those people
    reacted after eating it?
[03:17] (Flashback) Laury
    It's gonna become our signature dish!
[03:23] Myra
    A hundred silvers...
[03:26] Myra
    In the end, Dad's judgment
    proved to be right.
[03:31] Myra
    Knight's stew became so popular, it earned
    us 100 silver coins in five days.
[03:40] Myra
    Being so busy is a good thing, but still...
[03:43] Myra
    Maybe I'll sleep for a bit.
[03:46] Myra
    Just a little nap, like I used
    to when we had spare time...
[03:56] Johan
    Hey, Myra!
[03:58] Myra
    Darn it... Just when I was
    about to fall asleep.
[04:06] Johan
    Hi!
[04:07] Myra
    Johan... What is it?
[04:09] Johan
    Huh? Wait, are you angry?
[04:11] Johan
    Did I do something wrong?
[04:14] Myra
    Not at all.
[04:15] Johan
    Okay, good!
[04:17] Johan
    I found this incredible restaurant.
    Want to go there with me?
[04:21] Myra
    An incredible restaurant? Is there
    a place like that in our town?
[04:26] Johan
    I found it a while back.
    It's kind of... different.
[04:30] Johan
    The food is unbelievably good!
[04:31] Myra
    Unbelievably?
[04:33] Myra
    Well, I can go if we'll be back by evening.
[04:37] Johan
    Yeah, that's the spirit! C'mon, let's hurry!
[04:41] Myra
    Okay, I guess that's settled. Let's go!
[04:56] Myra
    Hey, Johan...
[04:57] Myra
    Are you pulling some kind of trick on me?
[05:01] Myra
    Why did you invite me out to eat,
[05:03] Myra
    and then lead me into the forest?
[05:06] Myra
    I heard wolves are seen in
    this forest sometimes, too.
[05:11] Johan
    I'm not tricking you!
[05:12] Johan
    This is the way to the incredible restaurant.
[05:15] Johan
    And if any wolves show up, I'll protect you.
[05:20] Myra
    Well, that worries me.
[05:22] Johan
    What does that mean? I am part
    of the town watch, you know!
[05:27] Myra
    I know.
[05:28] Myra
    So how did you find out that
    there was a restaurant out here?
[05:32] Johan
    Oh, well, remember when that married
    halfling chef couple passed through?
[05:37] Myra
    With the knight's stew?
[05:39] Johan
    Exactly.
[05:40] Johan
    Apparently, they went off into this forest,
[05:42] Johan
    singing some weird song.
[05:46] Johan
    I figured there must be
    something in this forest,
[05:50] Johan
    so I came to look a few times.
[05:52] Myra
    Uh-huh.
[05:56] Johan
    And I found that.
SIGN    Western Restaurant Nekoya
[06:05] Myra
    What's a door doing in
    the middle of the forest?
[06:08] Johan
    That's where we're headed.
[06:10] Johan
    It's Nekoya.
[06:15] Aletta
    Welcome!
[06:21] Myra
    H-Horns?!
[06:23] Aletta
    Oh, um... I'm actually a demon.
[06:26] Myra
    Wow... I've never met a demon before.
[06:30] Myra
    I thought they looked kind of,
     well... intimidating,
[06:32] Myra
    but I guess some of them are cute, too!
[06:35] Aletta
    C-Cu—
[06:36] Aletta
    W-Well, thank you!
[06:38] Aletta
    Help yourselves to any open seats.
[06:41] Johan
    We appreciate it.
[06:43] Aletta
    Here are your complimentary glasses
    of water and wet hand towels.
[06:46] Aletta
    Let me know when you're ready to order.
[06:59] Myra
    What an unusual shop.
[07:01] Myra
    The outfit that worker girl
    is wearing seems so... short.
[07:05] Johan
    Apparently, that's normal in the other world.
[07:08] Myra
    Huh...
[07:09] Myra
    Wait, did you just say "other world"?
[07:12] Myra
    This is another world?!
[07:14] Johan
    Oh, I didn't tell you?
[07:17] Myra
    No, you did not!
[07:18] Johan
    Sorry about that.
[07:22] Johan
    But there's no doubt that the food is good!
[07:24] Johan
    Let's decide what to eat.
[07:29] Myra
    Wow, they have a lot to choose from.
[07:32] Myra
    The prices are just a bit higher than ours.
[07:36] Johan
    That's true, but when you order food here,
[07:39] Johan
    it comes with all the bread
    and soup you can eat!
[07:43] Myra
    What?!
[07:43] Johan
    And the bread is such a fine white bread
    that you could get a whole gold coin for it!
[07:48] Myra
    And you get all you can eat?!
[07:50] Johan
    And I recommend...
[07:52] Johan
    Let's see...
[07:53] Johan
    This one.
[07:54] Myra
    Macaroni gratin?
[07:56] Johan
    Yeah. It's just like
    knight's stew, but even better!
[08:00] Myra
    It's made with knight's sauce,
    topped with cheese, and baked...
[08:05] Myra
    Okay, let's get this.
[08:06] Johan
    All right, great!
[08:07] Johan
    We're ready!
[08:09] Aletta
    Coming!
[08:10] Johan
    Macaroni gratin with bread, two orders.
[08:13] Aletta
    Coming right up. Please wait just a bit.
SIGN    Macaroni Gratin
[08:19] Kuro
    Thank you for waiting.
    Here is your macaroni gratin.
[08:22] Kuro
    It is quite hot, so please
    eat it with caution.
[08:25] John
    Yes! I've been waiting for this!
[08:27] Kuro
    Please enjoy.
[08:31] Myra
    So this is macaroni gratin?
[08:36] Myra
    The knight's sauce and
    cheese both smell so good.
[08:43] Johan
    This is the stuff!
[08:48] Johan
    Hot, hot, hot!
[08:53] Kuro
    There you go.
[09:01] Johan
    It's hot, but it's so good!
[09:03] Johan
    Go on, Myra, eat yours before it gets cold.
[09:07] Johan
    It's really good!
[09:09] Myra
    R-Right.
[09:11] Myra
    It does look hot, so I'll
    start with the bread.
[09:22] Myra
    It's delicious!
[09:23] Myra
    The outside is crispy,
    but the inside is soft and moist.
[09:28] Myra
    And this delicious bread is all-you-can-eat?
[09:35] Johan
    This other world's pretty amazing, huh?
[09:37] Myra
    It really is!
[09:43] Johan
    The bread's good, too, but you
    gotta try the macaroni gratin now!
[09:47] Myra
    All right.
[09:52] Myra
    Hot!
[10:01] Myra
    The charred cheese fills my
    mouth with its savory aroma.
[10:05] Myra
    It's giving me even more of an appetite!
[10:08] Myra
    Inside it is... oranie,
    chicken, mushrooms, and...
[10:14] Myra
    Noodles?
[10:17] Myra
    What a strange shape.
    There's a hole through it.
[10:23] Myra
    When I bite into it, the sauce
    packed into the hole bursts out!
[10:27] Myra
    The rich flavor of milk in the knight's sauce
[10:30] Myra
    and the sourness of the
    cheese enhance one another!
[10:34] Myra
    Delicious!
[10:39] Myra
    If...
[10:41] Myra
    If you could eat this at our shop,
     what would you think?
[10:45] Johan
    If I could eat this at your place,
     I'd go there every day!
[10:49] Myra
    Really?
[10:52] Myra
    Well, if you say so,
    maybe I should try to make it!
[10:55] Johan
    Great!
[10:56] Johan
    If you need a taste-tester,
    I'll be there anytime!
[10:59] Myra
    I will charge you, of course.
[11:00] Johan
    Aw, c'mon!
[11:06] Myra
    Quick, before it gets cold.

[11:18] Fardania
    I haven't seen the sea in so long.
[11:20] Fardania
    It's still so big.
[11:23] Alice
    You've been here before, Far?
[11:25] Fardania
    Yes, about 50 years ago.
[11:31] Fardania
    We finally made it to the sea.
[11:37] Fardania
    I've been traveling with
    Alice ever since then.
[11:46] Fardania
    We've been through a lot, but now...
[11:49] Fardania
    Okay, Alice, let's look for some sea
    grasses we can use as seasoning.
[11:54] Fardania
    Huh? Are you kidding me?!
[11:56] Fardania
    Where did you go, Alice?!
[11:58] Fardania
    Alice!
[12:03] Merchant A
    Come one, come all!
[12:05] Merchant A
    I've got rare kaffa brought in
    from all the way across the sea!
[12:05] Fardania
    Where are you, Alice?
[12:09] Merchant A
    Rumor has it the emperor himself
    over in the empire loves it!
[12:14] Merchant A
    How 'bout it? Wanna sample a taste?
[12:16] Customer A
    Do you have white sugar?
[12:19] Customer A
    I've been getting a lot of orders
    from the Shrine of Light lately,
[12:22] Customer A
    so I'd like to stock up.
[12:24] Customer B
    What's the deal with these prices?
[12:26] Customer B
    I could get five of the finest bottles
    of the Land of Sea's plum wine
[12:29] Customer B
    for the cost of one bottle here!
[12:30] Merchant B
    Don't you know?
[12:32] Merchant B
    This is the newest dwarven firewater!
[12:35] Merchant C
    You there, young lady!
[12:37] Merchant C
    Care for a croquette fresh out of the fryer?
[12:40] Fardania
    Last time I came here,
    it was practically deserted.
[12:44] Fardania
    Can human towns change this
    much in just 50 years?
[12:49] Fardania
    I've lived in quiet forests all my life.
[12:51] Fardania
    I don't do well in noisy places like this.
[12:57] Fardania
    There she is!
[13:02] Fardania
    Alice!
[13:04] Fardania
    Don't I always tell you not
    to wander around on your own?
[13:07] Alice
    I'm sorry.
[13:10] Fardania
    Honestly... Be more careful, all right?
[13:12] Fardania
    Anyway, what were you looking at?
[13:14] Alice
    This.
[13:19] Fardania
    It looks like slime. Is this food?
[13:23] Fruit Jelly Seller
    Well, yes. It's a dessert called fruit jelly.
[13:27] Fardania
    Fruit jelly...
[13:29] Fruit Jelly Seller
    Feel free to try some.
[13:31] Fruit Jelly Seller
    I served some to another
    elf like you a while back,
[13:34] Fruit Jelly Seller
    and she said it was delicious.
[13:38] Fardania
    Okay. We'll take two, then.
[13:41] Alice
    Yeah!
[13:42] Fruit Jelly Seller
    Thanks for your business!
[13:44] Fruit Jelly Seller
    Here you go.
[13:46] Fardania
    Thank you.
[13:50] Fardania
    Wow, this is pretty good.
[13:52] Fardania
    This slippery texture is fascinating.
[13:55] Alice
    Yeah! This is really good!
[14:00] Fardania
    I guess there are people in this
    world who make things like this, too.
[14:05] Fardania
    Is this made by boiling fruit in sugar and
    water, and letting the juice solidify?
[14:11] Fardania
    But how do they make the
    juice solidify like this?
[14:17] Fardania
    Excuse me.
[14:18] Fardania
    How do you make this?
[14:21] Fruit Jelly Seller
    I don't know, actually.
[14:23] Fruit Jelly Seller
    If you want to know how it's made,
[14:25] Fruit Jelly Seller
    you should visit the witch
    who lives on the cape.
[14:29] Fardania
    Thank you.
[14:30] Fardania
    Will this cover the cost?
[14:34] Fardania
    Come on, Alice, let's go.
[14:51] Camilla
    Lord of Blue, who reigns over the water,
[14:54] Camilla
    grant me your blessing.
[14:55] Camilla
    Grant me legs to walk upon the land.
[15:12] Camilla
    I gathered quite a few.
[15:21] Camilla
    Now, what shall I make with these today?
[15:26] Camilla
    A visitor? How unusual.
[15:33] Camilla
    Um... Who might you be?
[15:36] Fardania
    I am Fardania, and this is Alice.
[15:40] Fardania
    We heard about you from
    a merchant in the market.
[15:44] Fardania
    I was told that you make the fruit
    jelly they sell in the market.
[15:48] Fardania
    Is that true?
[15:49] Camilla
    Yes, that's right.
[15:51] Fardania
    Would you teach me how
    to make your fruit jelly?
[15:55] Fardania
    It was incredibly delicious.
[16:00] Camilla
    I'm sorry. I meant no harm.
[16:03] Camilla
    Please, come in.
    I'll teach you how to make it.
[16:12] Fardania
    Did you gather these plants from the sea?
[16:16] Camilla
    Yes, I did.
[16:18] Fardania
    Do you use them to season
    your cooking, by any chance?
[16:22] Camilla
    I do indeed.
[16:27] Camilla
    Would you like to have some of them?
[16:29] Fardania
    Can I?! Yes, I'd love some!
[16:31] Camilla
    Then I'll send them with you when you leave.
[16:34] Fardania
    Thank you!
[16:36] Camilla
    Please, have a drink.
[16:38] Alice
    Thank you!
[16:41] Alice
    Ah, hot!
[16:41] Fardania
    Are you okay?
[16:43] Alice
    Yeah...
[16:44] Camilla
    Now, you wanted to know how
    to make fruit jelly, yes?
[16:48] Fardania
    Yes.
[16:54] Camilla
    I must tell you one thing first.
[16:56] Camilla
    The fruit jelly I make is
    not the finished product.
[17:00] Camilla
    Is that all right with you?
[17:01] Fardania
    That's not even finished?
[17:04] Camilla
    No, the real product is even softer.
[17:08] Fardania
    I don't mind if it's unfinished.
[17:10] Camilla
    That's good to hear.
[17:13] Fardania
    Um, may I ask you a question?
[17:15] Camilla
    Of course.
[17:17] Fardania
    What gave you the idea to solidify
    it into such a slime-like state?
[17:20] Fardania
    No other meals or sweets would
    have given me that idea.
[17:25] Camilla
    Oh, that wasn't my idea.
[17:29] Both
    Huh?
[17:30] Camilla
    I didn't come up with the
    idea for fruit jelly.
[17:34] Camilla
    It was served at a certain shop,
[17:36] Camilla
    and I tried reproducing it
    based on what I had seen.
[17:39] Fardania
    A certain... shop?
[17:44] (Flashback) Camilla
    What will I find today?
SIGN    Western Restaurant Nekoya
[17:53] (Flashback) Camilla
    What could this be?
[17:59] (Flashback) Camilla
    It's been 55 years since
    I started living here,
[18:02] (Flashback) Camilla
    and I've never seen
    anything like this before.
[18:07] (Flashback) Camilla
    I sense mana.
[18:09] (Flashback) Camilla
    It's a form of teleportation magic.
[18:12] (Flashback) Camilla
    I wonder where it leads.
[18:24] (Flashback) Master
    Welcome.
[18:25] (Flashback) Camilla
    Um, what is...
[18:28] (Flashback) Master
    Oh, is this your first time here?
[18:31] (Flashback) Master
    This is a restaurant called
    Nekoya in another world.
[18:35] (Flashback) Camilla
    Another world? Restaurant?
[18:38] (Flashback) Master
    Well, yes.
[18:39] (Flashback) Master
    Would you care to eat
    something before you go?
[18:42] (Flashback) Camilla
    All right, since you offered...
[18:44] (Flashback) Master
    You can take any open seat.
[18:50] (Flashback) Master
    Can you read the Eastern
    Continent's language?
[18:53] (Flashback) Camilla
    Yes.
[18:54] (Flashback) Master
    This is our menu.
[18:57] (Flashback) Master
    And here's your complimentary
    glass of water and wet hand towel.
[19:00] (Flashback) Camilla
    Complimentary?
[19:02] (Flashback) Master
    Yes. That means they're free of charge.
[19:05] (Flashback) Master
    You can get refills, too, so ask
     any time if you need more.
[19:11] Camilla
    They have so many different foods.
[19:14] Camilla
    But I just ate a meal,
[19:16] Camilla
    so I should have something light.
[19:18] (Flashback) Camilla
    "Fruit jelly"?
[19:20] (Flashback) Camilla
    "Fruits boiled with sugar and
    enveloped in a transparent slime."
[19:25] (Flashback) Camilla
    They eat slime in this other world?
[19:27] (Flashback) Camilla
    How curious.
[19:29] (Flashback) Camilla
    I'd like to order.
[19:31] (Flashback) Master
    Sure.
[19:32] (Flashback) Camilla
    I'll have this thing you
    call "fruit jelly," please.
[19:36] (Flashback) Master
    Fruit jelly? Please wait just a moment.
SIGN    Fruit Jelly
[19:41] (Flashback) Master
    Thank you for waiting.
    Here's your fruit jelly.
[19:44] (Flashback) Master
    Please enjoy.
[19:46] Camilla
    How pretty.
[19:48] Camilla
    It's like I'm looking up at the
    water's surface from beneath it.
[19:52] Camilla
    The menu called it "slime,"
[19:54] Camilla
    but I guess it was just metaphorical.
[20:03] Camilla
    It feels so smooth on my tongue,
[20:06] Camilla
    and then it melts right away.
[20:08] Camilla
    A refreshing hint of sourness,
    and a light, clear sweetness...
[20:12] (Flashback) Camilla
    It tastes lovely!
[20:16] Camilla
    Is this mikele?
[20:20] Camilla
    It's so sweet!
[20:21] Camilla
    Compared to the mikeles I usually eat,
[20:23] Camilla
    its sourness is milder and more palatable.
[20:26] Camilla
    Ripe, sweet margos,
[20:28] Camilla
    moskets that shine like jewels,
[20:31] Camilla
    tao fruits cut into crescents,
[20:34] Camilla
    and this yellow fruit that shreds
    lengthwise in my mouth...
[20:37] Camilla
    What a luxurious dish!
[20:40] Camilla
    Each of the fruits is sweeter and more
    delicious than any I've ever eaten.

    Is this what happens when
    they're boiled in sugar water?
[20:49] Camilla
    I could eat this every day!
[20:52] Camilla
    Come to think of it,
[20:53] Camilla
    there is a kind of seaweed that
    can turn liquids into solids.
[20:57] Camilla
    Maybe I could make this fruit jelly.
[21:02] Camilla
    I'll try it when I get home.
[21:06] Camilla
    I started making it after that.
[21:10] Camilla
    But I haven't been able to replicate the
    softness of the jelly at Nekoya yet.
[21:15] Camilla
    The jelly I make always
    seems to harden too much.
[21:20] Camilla
    What is it?
[21:21] Fardania
    Nekoya...
[21:24] Alice
    Hey, Far! Isn't Nekoya the place
    where we had the rice burgers?
[21:28] Fardania
    Yes, it is.
[21:30] Camilla
    You know of it?
[21:31] Alice
    Nekoya is the reason Far started her journey.
[21:36] Camilla
    Oh, is that right?
[21:38] Fardania
    They got me again.
[21:40] Fardania
    I can't bear to keep
    losing to them like this!
[21:44] Fardania
    Miss Camilla!
[21:45] Camilla
    Yes?
[21:46] Fardania
    Let's make something even better
    than Nekoya's fruit jelly!
[21:51] Camilla
    Good idea.
[21:52] Camilla
    If I can borrow the knowledge
    you've gained in your travels,
[21:55] Camilla
    perhaps we can surpass it.
[22:00] Camilla
    Shall we get started making
    something right away?
[22:03] Fardania
    Yes!
