Kanata Ep. 25: Ninja Food Review?!

Kanata is trying to experience the world of ninjas firsthand as a ninja girl. Having learned about the fitness regimen of ninjas, the next topic to study is their day-to-day lives! What might that entail?

Player

What is today's training about, Kanata?

Kanata

Today's training involves one of my strong suits!

Kanata

We're going to try and recreate ninja food!

Player

Like what?

Kanata

Well, that's the question. What do ninjas eat?

Player

Hmm… Wild grass or something?

Kanata

Nope!

Kanata

I looked it up. Ninjas used to eat something called hyorogan. It's kinda like the energy bars that we have today.

Player

What?! They had something like that?!

Kanata

It's pretty surprising, right? They're so crafty.

Kanata

When you think about it, being a ninja requires a lot of strength and stamina, since they have to move around a lot or hide in one spot for a long time.

Kanata

So they needed food that could help them do that.

Player

That's fascinating… So what is hyorogan made of, anyway?

Kanata

It's basically made by crushing a bunch of nutrient-rich stuff into powder and then squishing it all together.

Player

Huh. Just like an energy bar.

Kanata

They must have been thinking about how to make it easy to carry around so that they could eat it during missions and stuff too.

Kanata

So that's what we're going to try to make!

[Fade in/out.]

Player

What…is this?

Kanata

It reminds me of that black, round medicine you take when you get a stomachache…

Player

It looks bitter…

Kanata

I used rock candy, so it should be kinda sweet, actually! Wanna try it?

Option 1: “Oh my!”

Player

Mmm… Oh my!

Kanata

This actually tastes pretty good!

Option 2: “What's this spice?”

Player

Hm? It's got some sort of spice in it.

Kanata

Yeah. I put cinnamon in it!

Player

It goes down easier than I expected.

Kanata

Yep. I could get used to this taste…

Kanata

So in addition to hyorogan, there's also kikatsugan and suikatsugan, so we should try making those too.

Player

You're really into this, huh?

Kanata

I'm willing to take on any challenge for ninja girls everywhere!
