I’ll admit it: one of the potential names for this adventure was “Magical Food Gentleman.” Yes, it’s full of yaoi references and yes, it’s risque and conjures up the wrong kind of images depicting a man and his, well, sausage sandwich fixation.
If you’re wondering, it’s a play on Jeph Jacques’ Questionable Content comic arc involving manga, a “compelling and nuanced story,” and two standard deviations to the right (or left) obsessions. QC is not entirely safe for work, but it’s how I get my first laugh of the day, every week day. I read QC before coffee, and sometimes again once I’ve had the first caffeine shot. Through Jeph’s guest strips I found Yuko Ota, who did the logo and made me look 20 pounds lighter and 10 years younger. Kind of.
After some discussion around the dinner table (where all serious life decisions should be made), I was advised that “Magical Food Gentleman” was both too obscure and inviting of more jokes than would befit a mild PG rating for this site. I have enough issues such that I don’t need to be involved in the first recorded food-moe manga reference.
But for the curious, yes, magicalfoodgentleman.com exists. You’d think I’d let this bit of intense obscurity escape?
