The Reason Why Kurimanju's Eyes Sparkled in the Anime "Chiikawa" Was Surprisingly Due to "Meat Polishing"!

In episode 103 of the anime "Chiikawa," the scene begins with Chiikawa (voiced by Haruka Aoki) and Hachiware (voiced by Makoto Tanaka) noticing Kurimanju (voiced by Takayuki Asai) looking at something on the internet.

What Kurimanju is watching is a process called "meat polishing," which involves removing excess fat and sinew from meat. For Chiikawa and Hachiware, it seemed like a puzzling video, and they were bewildered, saying things like, "Eh, eh, what does this mean!?" and "So, it's about removing the fat from the meat?"

Ignoring the two's confusion, Kuri-manju was watching the meat polishing video with rapt attention, his eyes sparkling. Viewers responded to this scene with comments such as "I love Kuri-manju in the meat polishing episode so much that I keep replaying it" and "Kuri-manju-senpai watching the meat being cut with sparkling eyes is so cute."

Additionally, comments were also directed towards Hachiware, with many expressing, "I always think Hachiware's knowledge is incredible" and "Where does he learn so many things?" in reference to the knowledge displayed while watching the meat polishing.
