10 Second Anime - Koufuku Graffiti - Episode 6

Koufuku Graffiti - Episode 6



Our gourmet girls try to beat the heat by eating the right food and doing other... things. Some dishes work better for Summer than others.

Heh.

Somehow the older generations survived the Tokyo Summer heat without air conditioning. These girls don't realize that you had to sit still, use a hand fan, and let a wind chime distract you from how miserable you felt. Another cute girls do cute things anime called BS on this whole Japanese tradition.
 

Obviously, you have to eat the right things to keep yourself cool. Obviously.
 

I guess that idea only works when the air conditioning is also working. Panic time!
 

Why would roasted eel with Japanese pepper cool you down? Hey, Ryou wanted to eat it, so just roll with it.

 



Yeah, looking at Ryou eat is NOT cooling me down.



Not helping...
 

And Kirin was all gung ho about the spicy roasted eel too.
 



Well. The food was good, but the air conditioner was broken. What to do? How about soaking in a hot bath? I really don't get these girls... They did admit later that the heat affected their judgment. If they say so.
 

The important thing here for the audience is we got to see two cute girls eat popsicles in the bath. With all that implies...
 


 

We even got Ryou saying she was a bad girl for opening the freezer just to feel the cold air on her bare skin. Yeah, that's a baaaad girl.
 

Also important - the girls spent a lot of time walking around the apartment in nothing bath towels. But with all the curtains open, anybody could have a good time peeping on them. It was time for Pettanko Peeping Protection!
 



Of course, pettanko protection doesn't protect you from the jealous pettanko.
 


 

I understand where Kirin is coming from.
 



Okay, she lost me... but she is a character in a SHAFT production, so she's giving us the usual stuff.

 

After the ice cream in the bath, Kirin still wasn't satisfied. It was still hot, but she still wanted to eat? That's not normal. Not only that, she wanted sweet red bean soup with mocchi (zenzai). Zenzai is supposed to be a hot sweet soup you eat during Winter. If Kirin's purpose was to make her belly think it was Winter, which would then cool the rest of her off, I guess that's no stranger than thinking a wind chime would do the same thing.

 

An electric fan will definitely cool you off, though.

 



Again, Kirin's stomach is not like the other girls'. Ryou even knew she shouldn't eat that soup, but it looked too good while Kirin was eating it. So then Ryou felt sick from eating too much. Finally. These girls eat so much during this show, I was shocked they actually showed the consequences of eating too much.

 

Then we had collateral damage with Shiina coming to visit. Aw, it's always nice to see friendship grow in a healing slice of life anime. Shiina just had to try that zenzai too. A hot Winter dish during the Summer should only be attempted by pro stomach users like Kirin. Shiina was not happy to hear other people planning to eat a lot of food.
 



Hmm.

Another great episode of cute girls doing cute things. All we had were the characters and they got stuck in a certain situation. It was hot, they needed to cool down, they like to eat as a solution to everything, boom! There's your plot. Bonus points for maneuvering the girls into a hot bath and lounging in bath towels. Also, we learned not to eat Winter foods during Summer, unless you borrow Kirin's stomach.
