He also invented miso soup and soy sauce at this time . Soybean, which is a material of miso and soy sauce, began to be produced on a large scale along with rice which is a type of grain . Originally, due to climate problems, the amount cultivated was small, but with Haruto Asuma’s abnormal passion, the production was multiplied, and eventually succeeded at the end . Simultaneously, his daughter Rea Asuma proposed the improvement of major cereals such as wheat, started large-scale production and made a great success . As a result, they established the Asuma Shokai Grain Division .

Liliane Asuma

She is a direct descendant of Haruto Asuma . For more details, refer to the item listed as Liliane Asuma .

Place of Birth

Haruto Asuma is assumed to be from the East and told that soap is a product from his hometown . But soap was invented by Haruto Asuma for the first time in the world . In other areas, there are objects close to soap, but the soap itself doesn’t exist . Therefore, there are multiple theories about his hometown .

Eastern Origin Theory

East refers to the central part of the continent right now . The reason for this East origin theory is from his remark that he came from the east . But the features of Haruto Asuma doesn’t agree with the characteristics of the ethnic groups living in the central part of the continent . Apart from soap, there is also rice, miso, and soy sauce which did not exist before so the theory has been denied .

Kirishia (West) Origin Theory

In other words, him being from the East is a lie . He is fluent in Kirishian language, desert people’s language, Gallian, Romag, Germanis, Equestrian tribe’s native language, and even able to speak the language of the hunting tribes . If he is from Kirishia, knowing the language from the west such as Romag, apart from the language of the desert people, it’s unfounded how he would know the language of the minor ethnic groups . However, his physical appearance and the characteristics of Kirishians does not match, so it has been denied .

However, his physical appearance and the characteristics of Kirishians does not match, so it has been denied .

Far East Origin Theory

It’s the current prevailing opinion . One of the evidence is that the features of those from the Far East match Haruto Asuma’s description . The second is that rice is a staple food from the Far East . Soybeans are also commonly eaten, and there are also things close to miso and soy sauce . However, it is being questioned since there is no such thing as soap .

Another World Origin Theory

There is also this ridiculous theory . However, it is often advocated . This is because it is written in his diary . (Considering his age when he started writing his diary, even if he has a brain disorder like dementia, it’s hard to say that it’s credible as a source) However, there is also the argument that all the things he did are possible if he’s from a different world .
