Plot

The plot revolves around Hanayu Ashitaba, a chef in training. Hanayu is the daughter of the celebrated pastry chef, Patisserie Ashitaba, but all she wants to do is become a sushi chef. Hayato Hyuga is the son of the prestigious Sushi Hyuga, but he wants to be a pastry chef. They go to Oiwaka High School together. Hanayu knows she will break her parents heart is she does not continue the bakery and become a sushi chef, But, she thinks if she marries Hayato, they will understand her decision. Throughout the series she tries to win over Hayato with her cooking skills. But when Hanayu said something about girls making sushi, Hayato was shock and asked Hanayu if she's just using him and Hayato confessed to her that he's just using her too, as Because Hayato doesn't want to be a sushi chef, but a pastry chef.

Main characters

  • Hanayu Ashitaba is a fictional character in the manga Mixed Vegetables. She is a 15 year old pastry chef going to school at Oiwaka High, training to be a sushi chef. (She stated once, in a side note, "I almost got sent to a pastry school instead!") Although her family owns one of the most prestigious patisseries in Japan (the Patisserie Ashitaba), she wants to become a sushi chef. This lifetime want goes back to the first time she went to a sushi restaurant (which happened to be Sushidokoro Hyuga, the family of Hayato Hyuga, her classmate). She has a best friend named Ichii and a little brother named Natsume. He takes after his father in the fact that he doesn't want any boys to come near her (which he stated, "Who are you? Don't go near sis!"). She doesn't think that her parents would let her be a sushi chef because they want her to take over the shop (Natsume's dream is to be a baseball player, so she doesn't want to put the burden of being the owner of the shop on him), so she tries to get Hayato to fall in love with her by displaying her cooking skills.
  • Hayato Hyuga is a fictional character in Mixed Vegetables. He is in the same class as Hanayu Ashitaba and Ichii in Oiwaka High, and even though his father owns the prestigious Sushidokoro Hyuga, his dream is to become a pastry chef. He appears to be very kind and very skilled with making sushi. He usually helps out at his family shop. When he was younger, he made cakes for his grandfather,but he died at an old age. It's stated that he doesn't have anyone else to taste his cakes anymore. Right now Hanayu Ashitaba is very important to him, since Hayato only told Hanayu about his dreams, reasons why he wanted to be a pastry chef, and about his grandfather. Hayato said he will give up his dream of being a pastry chef and take over Sushidokoro Hyugo. On Volume 5, he starts dating Hanayu.
