Matsutake Dobinmushi and Osechi organised a sumo competition to raise funds to rebuild the shrine that was left in disrepair after the coup.

Matsutake Dobinmushi is not a permanent resident of the kingdom.

Hishi Mochi was the food soul of the younger princess of the royal family.

Happy New Years

Osechi: Osechi has been a traditional Japanese new year food since the Heian period and is very strongly tied to that holiday. It is recognizable by its special box which is similar to a bento box in storage and functionality. Originally the Japanese New Year was celebrated according to the solar/lunar calendar known as the Tenpō calendar, and some of the traditional festivities are still celebrated according to that system, although officially the Gregorian calendar is used as of 1873.

The name Osechi comes from o-sechi, meaning a season/important time, New Year's day was one of the five seasonal events of the Kyoto imperial court. During the first three days of the new year, people weren’t supposed to cook most meals so osechi was made at the close of the old year to be eaten during that period. Although it was originally quite simple, osechi has become more varied over the centuries and now the many dishes that can be found in it can also reflect well wishes for the new year such as kuro-mame and ebi. Traditionally osechi is made at home, although in modern times it can be found in many stores.

Toso: Toso is a spiced rice wine considered medicinal that is a staple part of the new year's osechi cuisine in Japan. The recipe is said to have originally been a prescription by the famous Chinese physician Hua Tuo during the third century, it began appearing in Japan around the 9th century. The ingredients have changed over time but now it typically contains Japanese pepper, cinnamon, ginger, rhubarb, amongst others. there are also multiple regional drinking ceremonies associated with its consumption.

Toso is drunk to wash away the previous year's toxins and maladies, not just for the drinker but for those around them, it is also thought to promote longer life. The kanji toso is written with even reflect this, 蘇 representing evil spirits and 屠 meaning to defeat. Toso first became associated with the New Year during the Edo period, when pharmacies started giving out tososan to their patients as a year-end gift. At home, the patients could soak the tososan in some sake, and then drink the sake, hoping that it would give them good health in the New Year. The custom is now mainly limited to Kansai and west Japan; as people in other regions more often drink sake at new years without the herbal mixture.

Champagne: Champagne is a French sparkling wine, and although many people use the term Champagne as a term for any sparkling wine, in many countries it is illegal to label any product Champagne unless it is produced under the rules of the appellation. It is produced from specific types of grapes grown in the Champagne region following rules that demand, among other things, specific vineyard practices, sourcing of grapes exclusively from designated places within the region, specific grape-pressing methods and secondary fermentation of the wine in the bottle to cause carbonation. The genuine product is a drink help to a high standard even to this day as it often still can not be mass-produced efficiently.

The lavishness of champagne dates back to the 16th century. European aristocrats would pop the bottles at their royal parties, making the drink an “elite” item to have and to drink. After the French Revolution, it became a part of the secular rituals that replaced formerly religious rituals. The drink came to be opened at weddings, baptisms and other religious events. As the price declined in the 1800s the developing middle classes could begin to afford it, not as a table drink but still for celebrations, one of them being new years. Some suggest the drink became so tied to the holiday has a form of symbolically christening the new year, but many also argue that this drink is just very enjoyable and the tradition was born of celebrating that on the holiday.

Tteokguk: Tteokguk is a traditional Korean dish eaten during the celebration of the Korean New Year. The dish consists of the broth/soup with thinly sliced rice cakes. The broth is generally made by simmering the main protein in a ganjang-seasoned stock, the stock is then strained to make it more clear and long cylinder-shaped garaetteok are thinly sliced diagonally and boiled in the clear broth. Garnish is added before serving, but will often vary by region and personal taste. Although tteokguk is traditionally a seasonal dish, it is now eaten at all times of the year.

It is tradition to eat tteokguk on New Year's Day because it is believed to grant the consumer good luck for the year. The New Year custom of eating tteokguk is speculated as being originated from ancient times, The white tteok signifying purity and cleanliness would be eaten as a ritual to start off the New Year for good fortune. In Korea, on New Year's Day, a family performs ancestral rites by serving tteokguk to their ancestors during a joint meal as well. The Korean New Year is different from the Gregorian New Year, being about a month later as it is determined with a lunar calendar, culturally it is also very different as you are thought to become a year older on this day rather than the anniversary of your birth.

Honorable Mentions -

Bibimbap: Bibimbap is a Korean rice dish, the term "bibim" means mixing various ingredients, while the "bap" noun refers to rice. It has existed in Korea for centuries and even is still often enjoyed today. Its creation came to be from early rural Koreans taking leftover vegetables, sometimes having meat, with rice and mixing them in a bowl. People ate bibimbap on the eve of the Lunar New Year as the people at that time felt that they had to get rid of all of the leftover side dishes before the New Year, but the dish has a very large history independent of that fact.

Fondant Cake: Some people have a tradition of placing three candles on a new year's cake as a way to wish for health, wealth, and happiness in the oncoming year. I had thought this was a thing many people did but I could not find it’s source or replication during my research.

Soba: Toshikoshi Soba, or year-crossing noodle, is a Japanese traditional noodle bowl dish eaten on New Year's Eve. It symbolizes letting go of the hardship of the year because soba noodles are easily cut while eating. Long noodles are thought to be a sign of long life, and soba, in general, are often associated with strength and health. This is an honorable mention because it is a specific type of cooking soba while the in-game soba seems to be the noodles in general.

Sakura mochi, Kashiwa mochi, Hishi mochi: Mochi are often eaten at new years although all of our in-game examples are already designated to different celebrations. Sakura mochi is to celebrate spring, specifically when cherry trees bloom. Kashiwa mochi is to celebrate Children's Day and Hishi mochi is for the Hinamatsuri Festival (otherwise known as Girl’s Day), two celebrations also during the spring.

--

I would like to note that yes Korean New Year is still a bit away but I felt it would be best to do now since otherwise Tteokguk and BBB might be alone or stuck with all of the Chinese Lunar New Year food souls awkwardly. With that said, Happy New Year everyone and good luck to you all in the oncoming year.

4-3. Similar radiance

Osechi: Consider yourself fortunate! For you have entered my line of sight!!

Black Pudding: Eh? What is this Food Soul talking about... Is she a little weird in the head?

Having suddenly getting called out like that, Black Pudding looked at Osechi suspiciously.

Osechi: What? You’re not happy that I, the great miko, had acknowledged your existence? You can act happier if you want, you know!!

Black Pudding: ... You know, you have similar shine as Stargazy Pie―― But, too bad, that shine will bring you misfortunes...

Osechi: Huh? Why would I experience misfortunes? D, don’t speak nonsense!!

Because Osechi’s voice was too loud, the goldfishes all scattered away. Seeing that made Black Pudding chuckle.

Black Pudding: Look, the fishes have all run away. Don’t you think that it’s a sign of misfortune?

This girl is dangerous―― Osechi’s intuition told her so, and thus she decided escape by leaving the premise.

Black Pudding: Hehe, did I accidentally scare her away? Oh well. I don’t want anyone to interrupt my time with Stargazy Pie anyway...

Stargazy Pie: Black Pudding! I finally found you! Eh... uwah!? The goldfishes are gathering in one spot! Did you do something to them!?

Stargazy Pie was so surprised when she looked at the goldfishes, but Black Pudding simply smiled as she watched her.
