Actual, well made ramen with non-concentrate stock is indeed far more delicious than instant ramen.

Instant ramen turning out to be the greatest food ever on top of all the Food Porn Bulma had given them is a gag. Here's a good Western (or at least American) equivalent.

Sure, but if you get one off the street in New York it's your funeral.

The next page has Loki complaining that his hot dog has green bits, and Spidey telling him if he doesn't like it he can go to Jersey.

Instant noodles being the greatest food ever is a thing in Final Fantasy XV too. Sure that was because of the rampant product placement but still.

Instant noodles are delicious.

Especially if you doctor it up a bit, like swirling an egg in during the last minute of cooking, or adding a hot pepper.

I tried making them the "Naruto" way with an egg and that weird swirly onion thing, but it came out... less than desirable. I have absolutely no idea how to make "true" ramen or harness it's flavor, nor what "true ramen" even is - are we talking about making the noodles yourself, or buying store-brand and filling it with veggies and other additions suited to taste?

Thus marks the end of my quest for the perfect ramen. A pity.

Well, seeing how much focus food is given in Dragon Ball Super, it was bound to happen.

I'm actually fine with Beerus and Whis being lighthearted (as lighthearted as those two can be), as long as we get some gods that are actually serious. Or, at least more serious than those two.

Surely not all of the gods have an obsession for food.....

I never took this "JRPG Villain" thing as more than an injoke we started. I'm surprised some here think it was a legitimate invocation, to he point of parody even.

Is that so surprising? Fans pretty commonly use something similar to Parody Retcon to deflect criticism of something they enjoy, or enjoy laughing at. The Boo arc has been hit with it, Super Saiyan 3 and 4 and God were hit with it, etc

Like all the people convinced Toriyama disowned GT when he signed off on Super and Online!

And all the people convinced that the Broly films were cancerous, and the Ginyu arc unnecessary!

And those people who insist that the series should have ended with the Cell Saga!

That... doesn't seem like an example of what hardcorefakes said and more like you randomly interjecting complaints about views you disagree with. Which is rather petty.

[up][up]Wait, I thought Parody Retcon refers to when the writer does it?

When fans do it it's just denial.

People can just like something because they inherently like it. Not every praise has to be seen as complicated mental gymnastics of people trying to deny the truth.

That kind of ignores when that is the case as with the whole tangent about Zamasu a few pages ago. Someone said they hated him and then others jump in with what's basically "Well of course you're supposed to hate him silly" which kind of misses the point and deflects the criticism as it is.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.
