Has anyone actually followed one of the recipes in the manga and tryd to make the curry

Actually, yeah. I made the leek curry. It was really good, but ironically you could barely tell there were leeks. If you make it, consider using like three times as much leeks as it says. And for the half of the leeks you fry, be careful not to do it long enough for them to cook down small--they'll shrivel down to nothing if you aren't careful.
Still, it was really really good. There was grated apple in it, which I found weird but it worked really well--gave the gravy extra body and added a hint of sweetness to the curry. Yum.

Don´t talk like that
The first recipe in manga is Keema and my first try of making one was after pretty fierce class of aikido. I think, that Makito-san is right. The curry isn´t complicated dish and at least try to make one is always fun. Even with pain in shoulders, knees and back.

Just try it when you feel like it. Everything is possible when you really want. (except of flying - for my own safety never tried it)

Aikido, huh? What's aikido like? When I used to take jiu jitsu, sometimes when we did a joint lock kind of thing sensei would say it was "Aikido-ish". He seemed to respect aikido and I got the impression he'd done some.

That´s pretty hard to answer for me. I´m not skilled aikidoka, nor wise or talented and especially not long aikido-practicing. I´m just doing what I like, so I´ve never tried to find some difference.
But.. I think, that it´s the same like curry (just small touch to topic, so it won´t be pure OT). If you wanna now about aikido, try it. At least, it´s gonna be better than some half-baked explanation of mine.

I tried both the Keema (Beef curry) from the first chapter and the vegetable curry from one of the later chapters, following the recipes, though I used less ketchup/tomato sauce than the recipe called for, substituting a can of chopped tomatoes. I usually make European-style curry to my own recipe, but have tried using the helper ingredients table and other cooking tips mentioned during the story.

One thing I had never thought to try was the addition of bayleaves to the oil while heating, which works well in either indian or european style curries.

Many of the other curries feature either seafood or coconut milk, which I cannot eat, and others which looked interesting did not get translated at the end of the chapters.

I have a few more I want to try though.

Cool.
Were they any good? Would it be worth making them?

Ive noticed that Indian curries are spicier than the other ones... also uses a lot of oil and salt.... all to my liking.... but the best thing about curries is that you can mix and match after some experience makin curries.... using coconut milk works good with indian spices..... bayleaves too.... the oil works with turmeric and chilli powder as it mixes well... some add burnt sugar to boiling curry for additional colour n thickness...

i always wanna try making one but seems like i lack some ingrediants,
btw, has anyone ever try that packed curry(forgot the name but i think its in volume one) where makito just threw coffee, chocolate and anything they like?
will it taste good?
i wonder
