Ngl, my coworker thought 'shonen' was a type of noodle until yesterday.

Honestly, I was chatting with my tree crew about weekend plans and mentioned catching up on some anime. Tbh, one of the guys got super confused and asked if 'shonen' was a new ramen dish he missed. I had to explain it's a genre, not food, and he just stared blankly. Ngl, now I'm curious why so many anime terms sound like they belong on a menu instead of a screen.

Wait, he seriously thought it was ramen?

Man, I've seen that happen before. My cousin once picked up a pack of instant pho and was convinced it was just fancy ramen. He made it wrong and everything, it was a mess, lol. Stuff like that makes you feel for the guy, you know? We all have those moments where we mix up simple things.
