It is once every few weeks or so and I think the issue is not so much the sending part but rather the gods endlessly humming and hawing about what to order. Given how much research they have now done it is probably only going to take more time going forward.
The other heroes I kind of forgot about if I am honest, same with the kingdom that summoned them all. |

I had not really considered it before but Online Grocery might actually be pretty darn powerful when it comes to offensive options. Make use of the right items at the right time and Mukoda could be a high ranking adventurer by himself. Depending on the Tenant expansion he could actually become overpowered. I don't think that will happen though and the show is likely better for it. |

Chainsaw, chainsaw, chainsaw....
Okay, maybe not. But, as sort of discussed in regards to that other show about a middle aged online shopper in an isekai world, I guess my question about this online shopping app is whether it's a big supermarket retailer, or something more along the lines of Amazon. Because it it was like Amazon, a body in a low tech world could get up to all kinds of mischief... But let's be honest, we're only talking about it because it's getting harder to write about another episode where Mukhoda meets another guild master, makes another dish, gripes about not wanting to go in another dungeon, and makes another dish...the plot is definitely on rinse and repeat mode. And I don't mind that per se - this isn't an action show, and I like the dynamic - but I will say as of episode 9 that if the show wants me to love it instead of like it a lot, they might toss in just a few new elements. I don't need much. Season 1 had Mukhoda dealing with escaping a kingdom, trying not to shine too brightly, and experimenting with selling cosmetics and working to figure out how to get a hot bath. Instead of having new elements, this season has new faces doing the same old things. Finding someone and some way to process dragon meat is the only thing I can think of that's somewhat new in the development department. |

It is true that the show is rather formulaic but the whole thing is just so charming and relaxing that I will never grow tired of it. This week there was some more monster slaying (Mukoda was rather pro-active) and some tourism with enjoying the pottery of the town. Sui's gigantic form is interesting with it being outside of the norm. Fel and Dora are old age wise while Sui is still very young so it stands to reason that all the otherwordly food plus garbage is making it into a very unique slime (unique evolution too maybe?). |

When I said that I didn't ask for much, I meant it. Doing some shopping for plates and cups, Sui displaying a new ability, Mukhoda showing a bit of spine...I had no complaints and good things to say.

Episode 11 was great and maybe my favorite one of the season. It is a complete mini adventure with cooking, slaying and partying. All of it looked highly detailed as always but there were several lovely looking seaside views this week too. Slaying wise there were a lot of big fishies and I really have to wonder if any adventurer but Mukoda and his familiars could have dealt with the situation. The party at the end was a fun conclusion. |

Yah, it was a well balanced episode.
It seems our boy is growing up a bit. This is the second episode in a row where he interacted with other adventurers as an equal, not being cringey or apologetic. Last episode he faced some orcs with a mithril sword, and this episode, he went out onto the ocean where a kraken was lurking, and he didn't have to be dragged dog paddling and screaming. In addition, Fel might be the senior of the familiars, but Sui and the little red dragon thing both took out S-rank monsters on their own. Hmmmnnn Oh, and the guild master actually said "Shiver me timbers." Somehow I feel compelled to note that. |

Campfire Cooking is a rather basic show premise wise and it is also quite predictable. In most cases that would mean me losing interest after two full seasons yet due to how charming and relaxing the show is I am already clamoring for a third one. Seeing the gang easily wipe out all kinds of monsters (the dungeon was fun), delicious meals being cooked (the catchy music during is addictive), exploring different towns plus just relaxing makes for a very comfy show. We also had some bits of development with Dora joining, more gods becoming spoiled, Sui evolving further and Mukoda getting a bit better at fighting. |

If I have to compare this anime to another (and I do for medical reasons) I can think of 3 other isekai that broadly fit the "Finding an easygoing, comfortable life in another world" genre and are about on the same level as this one: Kuma Kuma Bear, I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years, and By the Grace of the Gods.
And don't get me wrong, i know there are others Drugstore in Another World, Etc) and all of the anime I mentioned have their own distinct identity and slightly different vibes. But all four are enjoyable, fairly laid back offerings about stressed out people living the good life in another.world, and they all had second seasons that did a pretty good job of maintaining their momentum without trying to reinvent the wheel. I'd love to see a season 3 of Killing Slimes for 300 Years and By the Grace of the Gods, and I certainly wouldn't mind seeing a season 3 of Kuma Kuma Bear or this one. |
