Line 40:
* "Pops" from ''[[Space Dandy]]''. An alien of an unspecified race, he has spent ''thousands'' of years perfecting his recipe for ramen noodles, and he seems to have succeeded, the stuff he sells at his small stand on the other side of a wormhole being ambrosia-like in quality.
* All of the female suitors, and [[Real Men Wear Pink|Ranma Saotome]], on ''[[Ranma ½]]'' other than Akane is one of these, and she wants to be one.
** Ranma's [[Hot Shounen Mom|mother, Nodoka]], is [[Take Our Word for It|supposed to be truly remarkable]]
** Shampoo is somewhat debatable. She once tried to feed Ranma a raw, cold, ''live'' pig she found on the street. Didn't even wash it first. Maybe she should stick to noodles.
*** She made it into "Canton-style Pork with Hibiscus", and given the predominance of [[Slapstick]] and the fact that Ryoga is [[Nigh Invulnerable]], is it really impossible that Ryoga was actually roasted alive, but survived? See the "[[You Fail Biology Forever]]" entry on the [[Ranma ½]] page for lists of other, even more bizarre biological feats.
* Sasami of ''[[Tenchi Muyo!]]'' is an excellent chef. In the manga, she was so good that she even baked her sister a carrot cake that she loves despite the fact that Ayeka hates carrots. Sasami even competes in an ''[[Iron Chef]]''-style [[Cooking Duel]] with several other child chefs.
** Don't forget [[Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have!|Airi]], who in her spare time between running Galaxy Police Academy, politicking, spying and berserking when someone would [[Berserk Button|call her "granma"]], runs a very successful little restaurant. Note that they ''both'' learned to cook from [[Magnificent Bastard|Seto]]. The [[
** But note that this paragon of culinary genius (she also taught Noike and Rhea, apparently) utterly failed with her own
* Unexpectedly enough, [[Badass Longcoat]] [[Anti-Hero]] Hei from ''[[Darker than Black]]'' is a very good cook. This is presumably due to [[Big Eater|a lot of practice]] and the fact that [[Real Men Wear Pink]].
* In ''[[Love Hina]]'', Keitaro, Mutsumi and Shinobu are this, and are the [[Team Chef]]s of the band.
** In his case, it's mostly a matter of his desserts being absurdly delicious, in part due to making his own Valentine's chocolate (to seem like less of a loser in public) and in part due to the Urashima family being [[Lamarck Was Right|a line of confectioners]].
* Cooking is one of the many talents of Usui Takumi in ''[[Kaichou wa Maid-sama]]'', as revealed when he begins helping out in the kitchen of the [[Meido|maid cafe]] where Misaki works.
Line 63:
* Lelouch Lamperouge of ''[[Code Geass]]'' is one out of necessity of having had to take care of Nunnally for years...and because he's such a [[Neat Freak]] that only he is capable of measuring and handling every single ingredient in ''exactly'' the way he needs and wants.
** Milly Ashford, the [[Cool Big Sis]] [[Student Council President]], is also an excellent chef, and she's eager to find any excuse to cook or bake. As a matter of fact, she's the only person with whom Lelouch is willing to cook.
* Makoto Kino AKA Sailor Jupiter of ''[[Sailor Moon]]''. All the other Senshi love her cooking and a few episodes have them turning to her for cooking instructions. Unusually, she is good at ''both'' major cooking specializations, pastries and everything else.
* Tomoka Osakada from ''[[The Prince of Tennis]]'', maker of ''excellent'' bentos. Justified since she's said to frequently help her parents to take care of her two cute little brothers, thus she often ends up as the default cook at home.
** She's also a sort-of subversion, as she's the [[Tomboy]] in a [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]] duo and thus she defies the [[Feminine Women Can Cook]] stereotype. Not that Sakuno isn't a good chef, but Tomoka is mentioned to be the one with better cooking skills.
