Ryuu doesn't let anything intimidate him. He's such a role model at the bar, including to Kyouko. I think she can learn a lot from him.

Regardless, it feels like this episode got deeper into what Ryuu is capable of beyond just making drinks and seving customers. Impressive for a guy carrying this show.

This show is making me realize just how intricate cocktails are.

Very good episode with an even nicer last few minutes as a whole focusing on everyone's different interpretations of martinis and in general, their own cocktails and how personalities can be made and shown with those drinks based on the slightest changes from selection of drinks used, to stirring and cooling techniques that can create different aroma and faces, etc. There is more of a overarching story to this version but its nicely paced and still good like the original, explores the drinks and cocktails well. Even the French cuisine chef who wanted the best of the best ingredients from France to live up to his 'promise' as a french chef based on previous experiences with feeling underestimated and looked down upon doing a Western cuisine despite being Japanese in France, got to learn not to underestimate ingredients and origins when he found mirin to be used for his drink compared to a European liqueor which he expected.

This anime is so enjoyable and cool. I love each episode.
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

This episode makes me want to go out to different bars and compare their martinis.

@Groman They must be walking around with a bit of a buzz, regardless of how seasoned drinkers they are. A Martini is not a light drink

Just wait a minute... How does having good sitting posture indicate that they work at a hotel? No other jobs require good posture...? I don't think the manager even deals with hotel guests, he's usually at his desk trying to meet the unreasonable demands of the owner...

Every time I try to get into it, little things like this pop up and take me out. Why would he say something strange like that?

I can only think that might be a specific cultural thing in Japan.

Bartenders do need to be able to know the profile and body language of a person in order to know what to serve them a lot of the time so that’s probably why it’s included.

It's the terrible writing in this show. It throws ridiculous absolutes that gullible people will eat it like candy without a second thought. The author tries so hard to make Sasakura some sort of smart and knowledegabe guy in his 20s but it fails miserably with cheap profiling. Sasakura's "gotcha" moments and everyone in the cast buying his BS remind me of this

Hopefully, this girl manages to make a drink that everyone likes. I liked how she didn't give up and kept working. Hang in there, Kawakami.

Well, I think everyone has experienced that strange and fascinating phenomenon where the same recipe, even using the same ingredients and preparation, made by different people tastes different. Whether it's food, cocktails, or coffee, it's the same. Despite being in the industry for so many years, I'm always amazed at how something can taste so different, for better or for worse, depending on who prepares it.

I don't drink cocktails either, but I think it's entirely possible to add a unique touch, just only for the experienced cocktail connoisseurs with a sharpened sense of taste. I really doubt that any random customer at a bar in Ginza would be that discerning, though.

After all, wine tasters and sommeliers are a real thing and can actually differentiate and identify different wine. I don't think it'd be that different from cooking/baking either, just a lot trickier and highly specialized.

As for "making your own martini"... yeah, I'm not sure I buy that, unless you're world-class and specifically competing to make creative cocktails (like the new lady bartender said she was). I think most bars would not ask their bartenders to make "a drink with a face"; just make a martini, man, no one's asking you to add miso or something.

Honestly I'd be okay with the show pushing it a little bit, if the writer actually put in the work to make it believable. They could emphasize that the bartender girl was working at a world-class establishment, or a special bar that has a reputation for serving one-of-a-kind drinks. Or they could have had a normie taste her martini and notice that it was simply not very good. But they didn't do anything like that, and now I'm again left unconvinced.

While I do uinderstand not sugar coating teaching, this is the second time he is just being an asshole to her. Like I say before, it seems there is a rule with bartenders to be assholes to each other while teaching.

This episode really highlights the "learn by watching" vibe of Japanese restaurants. I feel bad for the female bartender.

Saying certain foods must be made with specific ingredients from certain regions is silly. Let's not limit ourselves. Beef is good, but hey, we're in Japan. Let's go for the Roku!

I'm still enjoying this show for the vibes (and Miwa), but I'm having the same issues as @Kimurah and @perseii. These characters just say the dumbest things. I am completely unconvinced by all the weak proselytizing and hand-waved miracle-making. The occasional off-model character shots don't help, either.

I do not think Ryuu is being mean to Kyouko.
I think he is trying to get her a little hot under the collar to ignite a passion to fight back, to learn and to get better as a bartender.
He can probably sense this is the kind of push she needs.

It kinda related to me back when I was learning to drive.
My driving instructor was very nice but he knew when he needed to push me out of my comfort zone.
At the time it felt "mean" but in reality it wasn't. He was just helping me move to the next stage of learning.

Yuri seems like she has her head on straight and has a good drive as a bartender.
I'm sure she and Kyouko could be friends.
Get excited, I suppose.

Martini, the king of cocktail. They like to gave hard task to Ryou, to change the heart of other through his drink, the french chef was meticulous yet relatable to him. The female bartender come again to ask on advise on Martini and comparing with other bar as well.

  • cocktail: Moscow mule, martini = gin + Vermouth
    I didn't know the peculiar flavor of gin is coming from a berry thing.
  • legs of wine
    Actually, the man didn't see the legs of wine. He checked the density of alcohol through the viscosity of the drink by looking at the surface tension of the liquid.
  • Using a stubborn person to get a stubborn person? It's like a backfire. At least, the bartender is getting controllable for them.

also as someone currently learning Japanese this show is great with its slow talking pace which allows me to pick up on a bunch of words I know

To what extent is bartending a masculine profession? From what I see, all the female bartenders on the show are pretty tomboy-ish.

@Kimurah Are you one of those people who say that they doubt the Earth is spherical because they have never been in space and therefore could not look for themselves? No one is obligated to literally explain every observation or scientific fact to you in detail. Not to mention that your "smart edgy conclusion" is rather based on the scarecrow formed just from the fact that the MC decided that the guest had the bearing of a hotel servant. You yourself declared this to be the main generalization conclusion and you yourself criticized it.

Another one of Taizo's friends, which just so happens to be the secretary ladies' boss Kamishima, asking Ryu for a favour to help them curry favour with a well-renowned French chef, Yamanouchi, he ends up winding to help them once again. Even when things looked bad, Ryu stepped in to allay fears of the chef enough to win him over to their business.

The same lady bartender Kyoko coming back to Ryu's bar for the King of Cocktails, Martini, it's not as simple as pure Beefeater gin and vermouth, but a lot of technique goes into it, along with the accompanying taste that will tell of one's character. And with Ryu bringing both her and Yukari to Hell's Arms, his master Uehara's old confidante to try out a different variation of Martini that's unseen, one of his coworkers, Ginjo Yuri, did the mixing instead to experiment with Gin Martini, thereby teaching her how to mix Martini, the one with a "face", the character of the bartender whom the one is making for.

There's a lot of character that goes into alcohol mixing, and it's a great learning lesson.

@Kimurah So, all you could come up with in response to my request for real arguments was a continuation of ad hominen and a repetition of your original argument? And after that you have the audacity to accuse me of hypocrisy? Dude, you're just pathetic. You are not even smart enough to understand that the MC was most likely talking about some specific bearing, especially judging by the words “you have the bearing of a hotel worker.” It's not that difficult, but you seem special if you have to separately explain simple things in detail. Just don't waste my time with these clumsy attempts at "intellectual" debate.

P.S. Before you talk about the Barnum effect, at least try not to abuse it yourself to make offensive conclusions about my life just based on a large number of comments.

Also, if the writers wanted to imply that there's something more going on, why didn't they just write the line that way? They could've just added "for one thing..." in front of that line, and it would've been fine.

It would've been fine even if they didn't explain how he knew, since we already know he's good at reading people; just give a faint smile and leave it at that.

It's not a big deal, but this kind of odd annoyances happened several times already, and it makes it difficult to get on the show's wavelength of exquisite drinks and thoughtful remarks.

Alright, lets get to the meat of the subject.

The whole series so far has been a semblance of a smart bartender that can properly profile his customers and he knows what they want, thus he can serve them "the god glass". In reality Sasaki is nothing but a snake oil salesman throwing barnum effect like a monkey throwing shit at a wall and see what it sticks. The thing is that the author made all the support characters a recollection of "yes men" so all the wild and bogus takes that Sasaki throws at them will be true no matter how ample and nonsensical they will be. If at least someone in the cast would call him out and say "oh no, you're wrong on your guess", it would at least state that he's just making an ample generalization based on his very ignorant conception about what aptitudes and regular bearings an individual of certain profession, such as hotel manager, lawyer or any other would be.

The problem here is that the author is making him an undoubtable genius with nothing to support this gift.

Except, he's been pretty verbal and detailed about on previous occasions like the lawyer (even if they are still gross generalizations). Again the show tries to sell a kind of "smart cop" that can profile his clients. A valid explanation towards the audience is expected behind all his bullshit

@perseii It seems to me that you are digging too deep, while the author most likely just wanted to avoid excessive and complex explanations by simply implying things. But thank you for actually trying to think about this, instead of using false intellectual arguments from buzzwords and open attacks when this "unexpectedly" does not work, like some here.

The say "Don't Let Your Mouth Write a Check" should be applied here. If the author doesn't want to make more thorough explanations, maybe they shouldn't have opened a complex can of worms in the first place.

Another successful week of not drinking alcohol just because a nice anime glamorizes it.
This episode we further see how nice of a guy MC is even giving boss-kun the credit.
MC in youth looked really depressed, but dead set on "Glass of God". That places owner did not get to see present him who is apparently quite different. He has not achieved that goal, but has achieved the reasoning for it generally speaking. Such a wholesome character other than having a career in poisoning people.
I like the diversity of bartenders, I think we have seen all of the youthful 4 in opening now? Sounds like they are going to have a Shokugeki (well, Arukōrugeki) soon. Looking forward to it.
5/5 favorite was seeing emo MC LOL

Agreed, it does come off as being mean, but with good intent. He is very kind otherwise which is helpful, looking forward to praise in future maybe. Firing her up to try harder rather than staying in depression lane giving up.

This anime has continued to impress me. The chill nature and how calm and relaxed Sasukura is just impressive especially for his age. We got a small little flashback in his apprentice days where he was talking to the owner of hells bar and he had a fire in his eyes and looked a little darker and now it looks as he’s done a complete 180.

I think nothing will change with this anime.. all about making drinks like wannabe Shokugeki no souma, but a way worse.. the anime and idea itself are ok, but the story and characters are boring, the scenery is too static, they could at least show good animation of walking around Tokio between bars..

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

It's always a pleasure to listen to new stories about beverages even if they aren't actual stories that happened IRL. THey give so much insight into what others might consider just drinks to mull things over. On another note, we got a glimpse at young Ryu being an apprentice and training for the Glass of God. I expect his story to be fully developed by the end (or mostly at least).

Martini was the main focus this time & a lot of bartender works were explained in detail.

Gin? Vermouth? Are these Detective Conan references??!?!!?!😱🤯

Jk jk but fr tho this was another chill episode I swear this show is just so smooth and relaxing to watch ong, I was wondering when the other dude that the ladies work for was gonna meet Sasakura but fianlly he did and I’m hoping bro is understanding if the girls don’t manage to make Sasakura work for the hotel bc Sasakura ain’t moving a muscle from his spot😭

Bro Sasakura in that flash back at the Hells Bar during when he was still an apprentice was looking like he was full of aspirations bro has hit of LIT with ambition ong happy bro mellowed out now💀💀💀😭
