Kinou nani tabeta/What Did You Eat Yesterday? masterpost (updated!)
Howdy! Iβve been trying to stay sane during the pandemic by cooking too much of everything and revisiting the domestic lives of Shirou and Kenji. Perhaps someone out there is a similar mood, so Iβm releasing an improved batch of my subs including the special episode for a better rewatching experience! The translation is still the same, Iβve merely changed the font and reconsidered my line breaks.
About: Shirou and Kenji (played by Nishijima Hidetoshi and Uchida Seiyou) are a forty-something gay couple living in Tokyo. Shirou, fondly nicknamed Shiro-san by Kenji, is a frugal lawyer who loves cooking, budgeting and keeping things in order while Kenji is a freespirited hairdresser who prefers to live in the moment.
Despite their differences, they make their relationship work by appreciating the small joys of every-day life and unwinding at the dinner table every single night.
The show is first and foremost a cooking show. Food and cooking are heavily featured in every episode. At the same time, the story chronicles Shirouβs journey towards a more relaxed outlook on life, touching upon themes such as relationships with parents, in-laws and colleagues, coming out, ageing, and finding your community.
Manga: The story is based on an on-going manga by Yoshinaga Fumi which has been licenced in English. There are 17 volumes available in Japanese now. Time passes in the manga as it does in the real world, meaning Shirou and Kenji have aged over ten years in the story. There is no thrilling drama. Much of the changes and plot only become visible in retrospect, much like life itself.
Episodes: All episodes have been translated and subbed by me, and I ask you to please refrain from uploading my subs to other websites. They have been uploaded to some streaming sites in the past, but I havenβt authorised those uploads.
All episodes are 30 minutes long, excluding the new yearβs special which is 76 minutes long. To watch, please make sure that the file names match and that you have saved both the episode and the subtitle file in the same folder on your device. Only saving them onto your google drive will not play the subs.
New Yearβs Special + subs
Other projects: What Did You Eat Yesterday the movie is currently being filmed and set to be released in 2021, Iβll probably sub it once itβs out. Iβve also subbed the film His and related content on my other blog.
Ko-fi: If youβd like to support my various translations, you can now do it here, but itβs by no means a requirement!
