The Makanai: Cooking for the Maiko House 1.03

Taboo

Yoshino, a former maiko returns to the house. Yoshino's outgoing and rule breaking nature disrupts the household's gentle balance.

Thoughts

Kiyo doesn't play as big a role in this episode as she did in the first two. There doesn't seem to be any more question as to her role in the house. A fair amount of this episode seems to revolve around Yoshino and her antics.

Once again I had to pause the the show a few times to look up words.

I kept waiting for someone to put Yoshino in her place but the maiko were all too polite to say anything.
