@Buyobae Google-sensei can help us, luckily:
Mr. Sugimoto,
Ashirpa is my most important person.
I ask you to please be with her forever.

The food scenes where Sukimoto has to eat freaky shit are always funny...


.... but yeah... um.... having a name for a forked stick for waving outside windows to scare children... is retarded. Genuinely, completely and utterfly fucking retarded.

Yeah. Ainu clothing is awesome. But I'm starting to think between rubbing food on the backs of their necks and having special scaring sticks that a lot of them might have been kinda... brain-damaged.

@SotiCoto , it's tribal tradition my friend.
A lot of tribal traditions that doesn't make sense at the present might've been relevant and useful in the past, but hundreds of years of constant use and modifications might've altered its original form and purpose to the point that it's unrecognizable from its original form.
Just like what Asirpa said in the previous chapter regarding bear cub sacrifice. there's meaning behind every tradition.

[Draymarc]

@SotiCoto while I can't vouch for the accuracy of the manga, that's a pretty ethnocentric way of viewing things, bud.

 

[RandomnessOfTheMathWorld]

@Draymarc What's retarded is retarded.

 

[Golliboy]

@Draymarc sheltered people tend to be rather closed minded about how other cultures developed. Referring to cultural practices by derogatory terms is usually a sign of a under developed world view.
