Isekai Izakaya Nobu season 3

The 3rd season of the izakaya in an fantasy world feel good story has arrived! I was unaware of a 3rd season because it was never uploaded to dramahd but luckily monchi is subbing the series and I managed to get the raws from avistaz.

If you have not watched Isekai Izakaya Nobu, the best way to describe it is Shinya Shokudo/Midnight Diner set in a fantasy world. Feel good human stories with a decent amount of comedy featuring likeable characters. You have to turn off your brain a bit not not worry about how these European characters in a fantasy land played by Japanese can use chopsticks and have not burn Taisho and Shinobu for being witches with their ice cream.

Season 3 brings a lot of returning characters and some joining as staff. The best thing about season 3 is the main story about the princess played by Taira Yuna who sends spies into Aitheria.

The spy who thinks his cover is blow episode 3 is was one funny episode.

I think the Taira Yuna casting is genius and her story definitely gives season 3 the momentum it needs. Of course the main reason for watching is that it is also entertaining food porn. I really feel like flying to Osaka right now for some kushi katsu. I learned from the show why they have cabbage leaves with kushi katsu! lol

It was fun watching. Really got the Shinya Shokudo vibes from season 3. I've never given the series a must watch before but it is such good feel good storytelling and lots of delicious food to look at. Very watchable. Well done by WOWOW. I think the light novel is still going so we can probably expect more seasons in the future?

    Rena Takeda is always an interesting watch. She just seems to have this knack for partnering...its is a skill not many excel at.

    I find the Otani Ryohei / Rena Takeda dynamic really fascinating. It anchors the show and gives it much of its quiet heart - but almost never dominates the story arcs.

  2. @Anon: Agreed on the dynamic. The customers are the stars but they are the heart of the show.
