At the end of the day that is what making it is all about no? Appeal!

Yep, I meant older not old. Sorry.

Don't worry, I see you're male so you're not. Women over 25 that aren't married/taken are leftover christmas cakes.

It was an expression that to call women over the age of 25 "Christmas cake," meaning that they are out of season, as the cake is after December 25th. Now the age is raised to 31, linked to toshikoshi-soba, a noodle dish eaten on December 31st.

Never heard that about the 31st, but now Ayu even passed that age.
