Marriage proposals in Japan used to be very indirect and an example of it would be:

Would you make miso soup for me everyday?

However, it seems such a proposal isn’t as commonly used now as Japanese girls would prefer something more direct.

But it seems like Hikari got the message, Arata! (´ε` )♡

LOOK AT ARATA PROPOSING TO HIKARI!! (or at least attempting to)

Panel 1

Arata: Wow… How impressive

Hikari: And then I stabbed with my kagune.

Panel 2

I’ve bought the ring… As for the proposal I’ve practiced with magazines and books…

Arata: Hikari… Hikari-san! (not sure about the honourifics)

Panel 4

Arata: Please… Please try my miso soup!!!

Hikari: Forget it. It’s not like I can eat it. We’re ghouls.

Proposal Day

On 27/1/1883, the first proposal advertisement was published.

***I’m sorry I keep reblogging it…I had new info to add and then XKit screwed up the original text so I want to make sure it’s right***

I looked up miso soup and proposals and this makes wayyyyy more sense now…

Old-fashion Japanese proposals were very indirect, and modern Japanese girls will probably just laugh if you asked them a traditional proposal like: “Will you make miso soup for me everyday?” [source]

So apparently asking a girl to make you miso soup every day was a way that Japanese men proposed traditionally ^-^.  On the same page page I found the following in the comments that I could imagine being Touka’s reply to this type of proposal =p…

“Will you make miso soup for me everyday?” Modern Japanese women: “GO MAKE IT YOURSELF!”
