Fandom Wiki

Nobita raves about the curry Shizuka made in home economics class, but when Shizuka asks why it is so delicious, Nobita can't give a specific answer. Suneo, who is also there, tastes it and, besides praising it like a food critic, mentiones he's tasted many different kinds of curry. Gian, knowing this, decides to "borrow Suneo's sense of taste" to give some advice to Jaiko, who is interested in making curry. Of course, Nobita and Shizuka, who are also present, are invited. The group takes this opportunity for a picnic, "which should have been a very happy occasion," but after seeing how Jaiko and Gian make their curry, everyone looks worried. Doraemon first offered Jaiko the "Home-Ec Apron", but Jaiko has already put on an apron embroiders with her image and refuses to change. Then Doraemon takes out the "Eating Happily Powder" to sprinkle on the curry to make it taste better. After finally managing to add the seasoning, Gian is about to let Nobita and Suneo taste it when Doraemon discovers the powder has expired, rendering the trick a failure. Nobita and the others decide to face the challenge head-on. However, after the curry is finished, Suneo suddenly (pretending) to have a stomachache, so he doesn't have to eat it. This responsibility falls on Nobita, Shizuka, and Doraemon. Although Shizuka has actively helped with making the curry, she, likes Doraemon and Nobita, show a panicked expression when it is time to eat. For the sake of Shizuka and Gian, the three decide to eat it anyway. Unexpectedly, the completely black curry is incredibly delicious! The three eat one bite after another, plate after plate, making Gian and Shizuka very happy. This scene attracts the attention of Suneo, who is taking a break nearby. Later, curry critic and authority, Indo Jin (whose name sounds like "Indian" in Japanese), arrives drawn by the aroma. Besides praising Jaiko's curry as "the finest curry, Curry, the black hole," he also describes the completely black Jaiko's curry as "a national treasure." Suneo decides to try it. Gian decides to let Jaiko seize the opportunity of the master's arrival to learn from him, and he will help prepare Suneo's portion. However, Gian, in his cleverness, adds a large amount of spices, cicada shells, jam, and other "ingredients" to the curry, turning it into "Gian's Curry." Doraemon and Nobita, knowing the situation, are nervous for Suneo, who is about to eat "Gian's Curry." However, with Indo JIn nearby, Suneo still finishes the entire plate of curry, praising it and commenting, "It's like there's a black hole in front of me," in response to Indo Jin's "Curry, the black hole."
