“Scientists have calculated that the chances of something so patently absurd actually existing are millions to one. But magicians have calculated that million-to-one chances crop up nine times out of ten.”
Going to try translating this. I'm currently still learning japanese and I'm not that confident in my translation skills so if someone with more knowledge of japanese then me can look this over that would be helpful.
Would someone double check my translations so far? I'm not very confident in the current translations and I have been using a combination of Jisho.com and other soruces for this.
This series looks like they're 1890's magazine-type strong-faced women, or Greek, or chaps.
Or all of the above.
Very skilful and charming though.
If you think it belongs in a pool like Handsome Ladies feel free to add it. (It feels wrong for me as the uploader to make that somewhat subjective judgment rather than leave it up to the community.)
If that blue glow is from the pot, it's likely that it may be Cherenkov radiation. To quote Wikipedia
Cherenkov radiation, also known as Vavilov–Cherenkov radiation,[a] is electromagnetic radiation emitted when a charged particle (such as an electron) passes through a dielectric medium at a speed greater than the phase velocity of light in that medium. The characteristic blue glow of an underwater nuclear reactor is due to Cherenkov radiation.
This seems to indicate that the pan and the stove are highly radioactive themselves, possibly by enough to be very lethal to humans.
Was going to pool it to 'Handsome ladies', though decided not to. While yes, they are looking good/hot/cool. It isn't exactly giving that "attractive" or "gallant" vibe to me. Well, of course this is highly subjective.
Any thoughts?

I (personally) think it's fine. I think it gives the "attractive" in a way that would make it fit in the 'Hansome ladies' pool
“He had heard about talking to plants in the early seventies, on Radio Four, and thought it was an excellent idea. Although talking is perhaps the wrong word for what Crowley did. What he did was put the fear of God into them. More precisely, the fear of Crowley. In addition to which, every couple of months Crowley would pick out a plant that was growing too slowly, or succumbing to leaf-wilt or browning, or just didn't look quite as good as the others, and he would carry it around to all the other plants. "Say goodbye to your friend," he'd say to them. "He just couldn't cut it. . . " Then he would leave the flat with the offending plant, and return an hour or so later with a large, empty flower pot, which he would leave somewhere conspicuously around the flat. The plants were the most luxurious, verdant, and beautiful in London. Also the most terrified.” -Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's "Good Omens"
I can't help imagine Yuuka doing the same thing as Crowley (Note: Crowley is a demon).
