It reminds me of the technique “frenching”. You use a boning knife and scrap along the bone, and scrap all the tendons and connective tissue towards the muscle mass, and when all is disconnected the muscle and tissue sorta balls up. Usually it is done on one side of the bone only, but you can do both sides and get the picture. The bone is too symmetrical on both sides in the anime, that’s why it looks off always. Generally there is a larger end to the bone, like a chicken leg, or a lamb shank. If it’s done to ribs there is a curve, and usually some meat left on one end, like the cap. This picture the bone is too straight and consistent thickness.
Beef shank of a veal cattle possibly? It could be that. Or it represents some sort of bone in ham. Possibly it is some prep where ground meat is formed back around a bone?
You can do this with a chicken drum stick if you wanted to. I have seen people do it part way with a chicken wing flap. You just scrap it up once you removed one of the bones to make a chicken meat lollipop. If you did it to both sides towards the center you can get a similar result I believe.
I can’t find the exact video but i swear r/bingingwithbabish has a video of recreating this. what show is this from?

Yeah as others have said pork shank or Thors hammer (beef shank), or even osso bucco done whole (veal shank) kind of fit the role but…
It’s almost surely portraying a ham.

I just got my kid a Studio Ghibli-themed cookbook, there are lots of these not-quite-normal recipes in it.
If I were to try to make this I’d do a ballotine chicken then stuff its femurs right back into its neck and butt. The only other hard part is sourcing the elephant garlic off to the side.

Castlevania wall chicken!

It can be, the piece portrays a whole thigh or calf of a mammal. You cut the whole thing at the joints trim it on both ends, when cooked meat will shrink and create that look. Realistically no one does this cause its just a counterintuitive way of cooking meat since these are often depicted as a fire roast, that thick of a cut cannot be cooked evenly on fire.

I mean you can have Thor’s hammer or a shank with bone in.
Maybe a bone in ham
You could probably do some funky stuff with a lamb shank to get that look.
That’s dinosaur meat.
Is that a giant prawn or a really tiny burger?
[This ](https://sweetsavant.com/whole-roasted-beef-shank-recipe/) is the closest I can think of right now.

Lamb or beef shank or a pork knuckle.

Ox tail comes to mind.
Look up “pig wings” they are pretty similar.
