This might be a petty request, but would someone be able to replace the current image with a more appetizing specimen? I don't know about you, but I'll take bakery-fresh over the convenience store variety any day... --Julian Grybowski (talk) 16:51, 23 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Clannad Reference

Latest comment: 17 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I'm pretty sure Nagisa's favorite food is not anpan. When asked early on about it, she said "Not particularly. Though, that said, I don't really dislike it either." or something to that effect (the actual line is probably different, just going off memory here) She eats it because it tends to be the last type of bread left, when all the other ones are sold out at lunch. When she brings it up during the first scene she's seen in, she does so because it's a habit of her's, thinking about what she will eat later, to make her less nervous about something. 24.23.33.195 (talk) 12:11, 3 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

I concur. So change it to something else, or remove it. But it was kind of interesting to see a reference to Clannad, as it was the reason I searched for Anpan in the first place. :) 83.252.110.206 (talk) 21:27, 30 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Red bean bread exists in many Asian cultures, not just Japan 104.1.194.225 (talk) 08:22, 3 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

Small comments

There is too much anpan In the article. you should replace them with words like this dessert or this dish. So it doesn't sound boring.

Images are relevent and are licensed which is good!

For the history section, You should put both citation 4 and 5 at the end of the sentence reflecting it. I noticed citation 4 being put in an awkward position.
