Isn’t this sukiyaki meat? It should be fine here among the other Japanese food...

To flagger: consider if this picture were a smaller part of another which focused on an anime character, would you consider this part of it to be off-topic and only the character on-topic? Consider if instead of focusing on food, this were a picture of a building or mountain, featuring no humans, would you consider that off-topic? The subject matter is of Japanese cuisine, just not focusing on people, that's perfectly allowed.
