Dotombori No Daidako (Shueisha Bunkota 59-8 Nabe Bugyo Hanka Cho)

[Machine Translation] A giant octopus appeared in Dotonbori. While the staff of the Osaka Nishimachi Magistrate's Office were busy dealing with the situation, Kyuemon Ohabe, a famous magistrate with a gluttonous appetite, ordered his servant Kiuchi Sasaki to take care of it ("Tako-shibai"). Hisaemon is on the verge of an explosion when his menu consists entirely of tofu, day after day, night after night. It seems that his financial difficulties are not the only reason for this - ("Tofu in Hell" ). This is a collection of four stories, including one newly written story, that are sure to make you drool. This is the second in a series of historical novels set in Osaka, featuring mystery, love, and gourmet food.
