Fermat no Ryouri

Really unique concept combining math with cooking. But i think overall execution kinda didn't make sense and confusing, but still kudos for having creativity with the premise. characters are not really interesting, and just flat, only gaku seems interesting. Sad we didn't get much of Kai backstory tho, cus i was curious about him. Overall graphics are standard but i love the food graphics they're all looks delicious. Scoring are decent and well fitted the anime. Opening and ending song are great. Overall it was okay, pretty unique but kinda miss the execution imo. But if u like cooking anime, still give it a try as theyalso giving interesting information about cooking

The story of Fermat no Ryouri has a lot of interesting elements to it, the premise, some of the characters, the subject of cooking, math and especially the relationships between the characters, while the cooking itself is... ridiculous, as is most food related fiction when it comes from Japan, who have made a very tired habit of exaggerating food reactions. It is a manga, a television show and now an anime. And it is possibly the single worst show I've watched, so far. The fatal issue with it is the pacing and the contrived drama. A good story is carried by its implications, while a bad onewill tell you what to think and feel. Fermat no Ryouri does the latter and drowns in tropes, as it overuses ridiculous facial expressions while telling a psychological story of a master and student relationship pushed to an extreme, tackling hurdles that we can all relate to, but also tries to be cute and failing at both. It is absurd without being funny. The all too exaggerated music, effects, reactions and especially the god-awful pacing put you through a torturous roller coaster of hyping you up for the conclusion to the current story and every time it's a cliffhanger, continued in next week's episode, when all that hype is gone. Anime is no stranger to cliffhangers, but this outdated tactic to keep people returning is only necessary if the quality of the show is low and the conclusions are unsatisfying. It also makes the pacing predictable and urges you to skip episodes as soon as you know what the goal is, because everything in-between is just filler. Unlikable and unreasonable characters, unrelatable foods, annoying manipulation, terrible pacing/direction, it's all a mess that I could see work much better, under someone else's direction. As for this garbage, it's a score of '1', for being a miserable experience to endure.

how to make cooking homoerotic 101 wow. imagine someone asking how you met your husband and you have to tell them that the guy was fascinated because you heated cutlery up to 55 degrees and make napolitan and the napolitan became a running thing for like 3 episodes HAHAHAHAHA just browsing for something to watch and this caught my eye because i love cooking animes and i was expecting something like food wars but what i got was… well! it was certainly something! the main character pmo so bad and i honestly think the use of maths here is HILARIOUS LMAOOO none of it makes literally any senseat all and i love that they think everything can be explained perfectly by the most basic quadratic graphs ever. this is literally the equivalent of someone hacking in a movie with a green screen of binary numbers in the background and typing in things like ‘remove security’ and bam! we’re in the mainframe! it is only the first season though so hopefully the next season has a little more character development for the m/c because even if the maths is bad this anime is still incredibly entertaining with how bad it is in some places and honestly the food looks GREAT !!
