I know Hakata is a ward in Fukuoka prefecture, but for the life of me I can't figure out how Tonkotsu Ramen(s) come into play here. Any ideas/speculations?

(I've only watched the first episode and I'm unfamiliar with the source material)

someone else always have what you want, but it usually means nothing to them...

I guess it's Banba-san's fave food? Hahaha. Not sure, really, but I can't wait to know the reason behind the title. :D

I think you may be reading too much into the title. So far it's been mentioned in every episode, it's just a popular food there (as TheDoggoneGirl said, it's Banba's favourite food).

Fun fact: Japanese ramen originated from China.
Ling is Chinese, so maybe there's some sort of connection...nah, probably just Banba favorite food.

Totally agree!

Funny to see a lot of info about this in episode 4. Especially at the end.

Well in the anime's case it's more or less a group name and the latest episode attested to that.

It's the name of Bamba baseball team.

And not only.
The whole "gang" is the team, literally.

There is no other title that would suit this series more, xD
bruh
