b4 Trans: It seems their waiter is enjoying Hitoshi's pain.

I'm starting to feel sorry for him again. Just no luck whatsoever at times.

Ask for butter or olive oil, then (or whatever other culinary fats are part of Japanese cuisine)? If the thing about milk is that capsaicin is fat-soluble, then those should work as well.

Edit: Now that I think about it, I wonder if the sensation would have been worse if Nijimura Okuyasu had taken the "augmented" takoyaki...

Feels like rapattu's Lily..

ya, but with Cirno's IQ

This is exactly how food service works.

What sort of backwards establishment is this if they offer super spicy meals but no "wuss out" option?

I HAVE NO SON inc.

So they serve milk cocktail, but not milk... Kinda of reminds me of Leisure Suit Larry 7when you have to get lime juice to make the Venezuelan Beaver Cheese.

Milk eases spiciness? I have learned something new. I usually eat cookies to cool it down.

Is Sanae being kind to Kogasa for once...?

Sanaewife is the only one allowed to ruin Kogasa's day.

Why do I get the feeling the third panel's sound effects are something akin to the "lost connection" sound on a phone? Or a 56k dial-up sound?

For some reason I just imagined the "You've got mail!" AOL sound clip.

{has a feeling he's going to get laughed at for his attempts at interpreting hand-written katakana}

Edit: Okay, I *think* that's a su katakana I'm looking at...Not that I have any idea what the sound effects signify, although the first two do seem to bear out the idea of a phone or other device shutting down.

Edit2: Now fixed to be represent the fi sound...but what sort of object makes that sort of sound when crashing?

I took it to be the sounds of a dial-up modem...

Well, running the Pixiv commentary through BabelFish, Hitoshi did mention that the miko-waitress seemed to be frozen when facing a situation that hadn't been explicitly covered in the manual. I guess this is the restaurant equivalent of an illegal value error (a modem receiving an unintelligible call signal type?)...

So, kinda like this.

Yes, milk works because it undoes the connections that spicey things do to your tonguew nerv cells - so to say. Another way to get some ease is bread, simply bread.

On another note, do NOT use water. Water will only make it worse because the spicey substances are spread further around. Beer and other water based liquids dont work either.

any carbonated drink will only make things worst. Beer, coke, soda, etc., you're better off continuing eating something non spicy or bread if you can

Vaguely heartwarming.

It's a reboot sound of old NEC PC.

I sure don't miss those speeds, but man, sometimes I do miss those sounds.

Ah. Never had one of those.

NEC PC is now so miserable that it's majority owned by Lenovo.

It might be worth noting that it was those PCs in which you played Touhou 1-6.

Fixed.And yeah,that's the famous PC-98.

...One wonders if this would have gone better if Sanae had ever seen "Five Easy Pieces"...

Goddamnit, I hate restaurants who can't serve anything not on the menu, even if it's the slightest modification.

Yeah, 5, sorry. Finger hit 6 instead.

Not where I work. If we have the ingredient, we'd let you get it, even if it wasn't specifically on the menu

I fixed it for you~!

The waitress' computing sound remind me of an old pentum computer with win95 on it.

Those eyes, they are of osa-yukkuri!

My cafe doesn't serve off-menu ingredients because it would dig into our daily inventory check. We don't have a say in this.
