Main Story

Nevras

"Based on literature, when the evil spirit, Ottovia was sealed in the Eight Peaks, the saints saw the tears of sorrow and unwillingness shed. Over time it gradually converged into a lake at the end of the eight peaks."

The basis of awakening Food Souls is the magic crystals formed around Eight Peaks due to the extreme temperatures there.

The Academy is controlled by Gloriville but due to Palata's neutrality, they can provide financial support. There is contention about this buy the Royal Family has not spoken about it.

Elves used to live in the Polar Snowfield, there are ancient buildings left but it's too dangerous for adventurers to explore.

Looking at the locations illustrations, Nevras really is quite pretty. Too bad it's hard to enjoy it while freezing your ass off;;

Determination: Since the guild and academy are controlled by the Royal Family, MC wants to get permission to enter the latter.

A New Companion: Olivia obtained a distribution license, Olivia transferred to MC's branch to be nearby to help easier.

Winterland: Aw, Rice bringing a pot of tea, so thoughtful. :') They encounter what might a be student and help her against Fallens chasing her.

Break Through to the Academy: The first person they run into at the academy is an arrogant rude guy, even Olivia gets mad, The minister of the Chef's guild, Lockheed, shows up. He orders them away though. A student named Mithra has escaped (are students locked in??) and MC-tachi are ordered to bring her back.

Find Her: They encounter a geological surveyor waiting for their own food order who saw the girl heading to Blue Stone Town with a bunch of strange stones.

Take Back Control: They go to Blue Stone Town and help get the facility running after it broke down.

A Dangerous Time: They find Mithra on the beach.

Reasonable: She made a deal with the Fallen Angel Queen Conch to find out more about them. I guess her end is feeding her blue crystals, but the group destroyed them trying to help Mithra.

From the Academy: Mithra knows about the syringes and spills everything! A team formed 15 years ago to study Fallen Angels, they made a lot of breakthroughs, Using the crystals, they were able to transform and mutate other species, including humans, into Fallen Angels?! That can't be ethical...... The royal family approved it wtf but one of the team was murdered and their research was wiped. Sounds like Sakurajima still has something to do with it.

Cross the Sea: Sakurajima has been cut off for 300 years. There only choice it seems is to taking a fishing boat from Blue Stone Town.

The Town Leader's Assistance: They get permission to use the boat and provide food for the villagers since they won't be able to fish (why do they only have one fishing boat??).

The Evil God's Tears: Why don't they maintain the boat that provides fish for them?? Especially since it sounds like they don't have other boats. 'They all got destroyed'. They say they can fix the messed up hull but for some reason ordinary wood won't work, they need to get water from the lake and dip the wood in it. And for some reason they can't just gather some water in a pot and dip the wood at their leisure, they have to go out on the ship and awkwardly dip it into the water. And of course there's Fallen Angels! Mithra took some of the water, I wonder what she wants to combine it with?

Fall: Mithra delayed their leaving because she wanted mud...

New Archaeological Find: I...they fall into a hole?? Their whole boat or what? It's the 'Catacombs' underneath. The Academy dug an entrance but this is a different one and there are ancient engravings on the walls.

The Hidden One: Mithra reads an engraving about Light and Dark spirits that says they come from the same ancestors. At one point the world was almost destroyed and civilization was divided in two. Rice can read the engravings. There is 'another world' on the other side of the mountains but no one has lived to tell about it. I can honestly understand Mithra's reluctance to leave, a treasure trove of knowledge is right there...

Relentless Pursuit: The Spectra Fallen Angel followed them out so Olivia and Ichi save them. Why is he so hot?

Set Sail: I'd have thought Mithra would've wanted to get back to the academy to do her research but she's going with them. A red fog surrounds them and knocks everyone out. 😵 Is that Sakurajima's way of taking care of visitors?

I think I might have stopped around Palata in my first read-through? I'm excited to read events stuff agh.

Used my anime TBR boardgame.

I finished 5/6 for my last challenge, DNF'ing one. I enjoyed them all except that one! I wasn't able to watch more than one episode of them all but I look forward to watching more!
