6 Things I have learned by watching Lost Universe (the anime) - one for each disk that was horribly mangled by ADV:

1) Food is a euphemism. So is cooking.
2) As long as I keep repeating "You're the best cook in the universe" I don't have to actually TRY the chicken flavored icecream.
3) Even non-lost ships, which have to obey rules like gravity and inertia can have normal, porcelain toilets (that work because of GRAVITY).
4) The best way to lay low, while wanted by ALL the galaxy police, is to wear a brightly colored jacket with a high collar and dark sunglasses, muttering to myself - the entire time - about hiding due to the fact that I'm wanted for treason. And then walk up to the first galaxy police officer I see, and identify myself. And then take her out to dinner. Apparently.
5) Even if I am Evil-Psycho-Bitch, if I am female, I am a co-dependant weenie.
6) Much like the Gigaslave, the SwordBreaker's soul-eating, ultimate attack can, at the last minute, be stopped by a ditz who swoons after someone who completely and utterly fails to acknowledge said crush, with no consequences AT ALL.

Tehee. Time to watch the last episode now! :eg:

Last... episode... ;_;

h.h No one's ever asked me why I won't cook for other guys, but here you go.

It all became clear to me in the episode where Millie tells Neena, in reference to her abilities as a chef, that she "knows how to please a man"...

*cough*

At that point I realized that LU is actually a very, very dirty series. It's not so much that food itself is a euphemism, but I think the act of preparing food for someone equates to something else that pleases a man...

So every time Millie says to Kain, "I'm going to cook you the best meal in the universe", what's she actually telling him? When she brings that bizarre gelatin mold that is somehow chicken-flavored ice cream (uch) onto the Swordbreaker's bridge, what's she actually doing?
And when Millie says "I'm the best chef in the universe!", what is she actually talking about?

Also notice that the writer cleverly prevented Canal from eating by making her a hologram with a mass projector, instead of an android or something like that (the dryad of a spaceship would be called what, exactly?...) so she can't eat Millie's food. Damn homophobes.

But still.. it's even worse in the latter parts of the series when Millie waxes philosophical about how you're okay psychologically as long as you keep eating..
