Kitchen Princess (Manga) | comment |
After an accident leaves her orphaned, Najika Kazami is left to her own grief and unanswerable questions. After wandering too far from Lavender House, she trips and falls into a pond. She's rescued from almost drowning by a kind-hearted young boy about her age. Giving her words of encouragement and compassion, he hands over a spoon and a cup of flan. When he disappears thereafter, that flan and spoon are the only clues as to his identity. It isn't until a few years later that Najika learns that the spoon's insignia is Seika Academy's, a prestigious school for students that show incredible talents. Armed with only her amazing taste buds and cooking skills, Najika enters Seika Academy in the hopes of finding her Flan Prince.Kitchen Princess (キッチンのお姫さま, Kicchin no Ohime-sama) is a cooking shōjo manga by Miyuki Kobayashi with art by Natsumi Andō (Arisa). It ran from September 2004 to October 2008 in Nakayoshi and was compiled into ten volumes. Del Rey Manga originally released the series in English.

Doppelgänger Replacement Love Interest: Subverted with Seiya. Seiya isn't introduced until directly after Sora's death. He looks the same, but his personality is completely different: instead of being kind and understanding, Seiya is an arrogant, snobby Jerkass. | |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Akane acts like Najika's friend and is supposedly on her side while other students want her out. However, there are various points in the series where she tries to sabotage Najika's relationship with Daichi and tries to make her leave the school. She also pulls a few Wounded Gazelle Gambits on her classmates to make Najika look like the bitch in disguise. By the end of the first volume, Akane stops acting like a nice person and tells Najika to her face that she actually hates her. | |

Brilliant, but Lazy: Fujita may look and act like a complete slacker, but he is actually a very talented chef. At one point, he helps Najika figure out the secret to the peach pie that Akane's grandmother used to make after Najika made several pies by herself. Daichi can be just as smart and studious as his brother, he mostly chooses not to. | |

Love Dodecahedron: Najika is in love with her Flan Prince, but she doesn't know who he is. Akane has had a crush on Daichi for some time before Najika's transfer to Seika Academy. Sora and Daichi eventually fall for Najika, but Sora's death leaves a shadow over Daichi and Najika's budding feelings. The hole Sora left is filled by Seiya, who also eventually develops a crush on Najika. | |

Lazy Bum: Prior to Najika's arrival, Fujita used to be a great chef and took better care of his restaurant. By the time she gets there, he let his diner go to ruin. One side story has him use this excuse as to why he wouldn't go grocery shopping during a hot day, instead making Najika get them instead. He's even referred to as a lazy bum by the characters. | |

Disproportionate Retribution | |
Kitchen Princess (Manga) / int_50b05d30 | comment |
Disproportionate Retribution: The reason why Akane antagonizes Najika is because she believed that Najika was trying to take Daichi away from her. The bullies that Najika has to deal with torment her just because they think she doesn't deserve to be there, even when she's shown off her culinary skills. They go as far as to attempting to get Fujita Diner closed because one of them saw her with Sora and they thought she was flirting with him. | |

Inconsistent Dub: According to the Kodansha print of the manga, Najika's parents died in a car crash. In the Del Rey translation of the light novel, Najika's parents (and both sets of grandparents) died in a boating accident. While neither is completely accurate, the accident involving a boat is more true to the original text. | |

Heel–Face Turn: Akane resented Najika's closeness to Daichi, leading her to bully Najika out of jealousy. Najika takes the bullying as it is at first, even helping Akane when she was going through a tough time, but she does eventually retaliate. Akane exposes her jealousy during the aftermath, leading the two of them to have a heart to heart. From then on, Akane becomes one of her friends, even standing up for Najika when her former posse continues bullying her. | |

Satellite Love Interest: Deconstructed with Sora. At first he seems to be nothing more than a stereotypical prince-type love interest who swoops in at the last minute when things seem to be going south for Najika. Then it's revealed that he got close to Najika on orders from his father. He did wind up developing a crush on Najika, and tells her that he's her Flan Prince. Then he gets hit by a truck, causing fatal injures. He dies, but not before admitting to Najika that he lied about being the Flan Prince. | |

Orphan's Plot Trinket: The spoon Najika wears was given to her by the same boy who saved her from drowning.

Several years later, she finds out that the insignia on the spoon is the same one as Seika Academy's. Since she has no other leads, Najika enrolls in the illustratious academy in the hopes that her Flan Prince will be there. | |

Gut Punch: The story becomes much more serious after Sora's death. While the series never fully loses its lighthearted or comedic moments, the event casts a definite shadow; Najika has to struggle with her grief, the feelings she had for the boy she lost, the boy's father taking out his grief on her by being petty, and many other hardships. | |

Idiosyncratic Episode Naming | |
Kitchen Princess (Manga) / int_ac4ac8e5 | comment |
Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: All the manga chapters and the light novel's arcs are titled "Recipe #: Najika and [food]." The food named is usually a dish that Najika cooks with no more significance than that, though dishes that are an important part of the chapter aren't uncommon. The manga's bonus chapter changes it up slightly, being named "Akane and Black Sesame Pudding". | |

Interquel: References to Sora's death, Seiya's presence, and the fact that Najika and Daichi aren't dating yet all point to the events of Search for the Angel Cake happening at least around the midpoint of the manga. | |

Kitchen Princess (Manga) / int_e7ecdeb0 | comment |
Weight Woe: Akane's the thinnest girl at her school, but she fears that if she gains even one pound, it'll be the end of her supermodel career. For a few chapters, she resorts to forgoing meals, which causes her friends, family, staff members, and Najika to worry. She even believed that the food she ate in one chapter would turn immediately turn to fat so she forced herself to regurgitate it. | |

Clingy Jealous Girl: Akane developed a crush on Daichi when they were little and those feelings transferred over to their teen years. She was hopeful that she and Daichi would get together, but then Najika shows up at the academy. When she feared that Daichi would get with a girl who wasn't her, she joined forces with a group of bullies who wanted Najika out. She even stole a present that Daichi got for Najika because she suspected a more serious relationship forming. She eventually drops this behavior and accepts that Daichi just isn't interested in her. | |
