The Meal with Hokusai

Yamada Bun, a creative university student, lives alone with her doll, Hokusai. When Bun creates mayonnaise on the spot to enrich her otherwise meager sandwich, Arikawa Jun calls her a magician and exchanges her bread heels with Bun.

After nodding off during class, Bun is tasked with sketching pumpkins, which she decides to cook instead. While simultaneously preparing the pumpkins and some honey roasted peanuts for Jun, Bun makes a mistake and decides to change the menu.

After being told that she might have to repeat a year, Bun searches the neighborhood for inspiration but returns home without success. At home, Bun discovers an earthenware pot in a package that her mother sent and decides to cook miso udon.
