The Soba that Leapt Through Time XD
I think that might be my favorite foodgasm.
Drooling Rindou and Momo.
Okay, so they just cleared three plates of soba each, right? And then they'll probably eat all of Souma's yakisoba too, plus everything the other four cooks put out at least. How do they manage to eat all this food and maintain those physiques? Are they bulimic? Are they about to go stick a finger down their throat? That's bad for your teeth!

Pssh! It's anime. It doesn't need to follow your puny logic!
...even though you bring up some rather good points...

Maybe they just work out a lot.

Well, this is the genre where you can do anything via Training from Hell.

Shouldn't they have more muscular physiques then?

Rindou and Momo could be used as reaction faces.
Soba that Leapt through Time. Reference game on point. I wondered how they were gonna showcase the Soba deliciousness, and I have to say, having it disappear without trace was a nice way to do it.
It really bugs me how cocky Souma is and how hard they are telegraphing that's he's going o win. Just because he's the main character is no excuse to not try make his matches tense.
Also, I can't believe they are falling back on the old "Souma helped in the kitchen since he was little" thing again. Because, yeah of course that totally trumps hundreds of years of Soba development. Sheesh.
Erina mastered laundry. Erina's waifu level has risen once again!

Soma is always a bit cocky though in his matches

Are you implying that ten years of general cooking training is not superior to ten years of specialized cooking when focusing solely on that specialty ??
CHADhan Player.
Hmmm, it does actually make you wonder what Souma is going to make. He's getting it pretty hard rn though lol.

You know, I just realized. I thought these matches were supposed to feature teamwork, but they're doing the exact same thing they always do.
Teamwork only matters for those losers who can't hack it on their own. Three guesses on who qualifies for that on the main characters side.
To be fair, I think Souma and Erina are going to end up working together in the last match, but still.

Yea, there's not much teamwork going on despite prancing on about it.

Chapters out. If you're familiar with the series, you can probably guess how it went.

The suspense is killing me. /s
Hitokiri in the streets, daishouri in the sheets.
They're going to spend half the next chapter explaining why Soma won even though they basically did that this chapter, aren't they?
CHADhan Player.
Naw see, this was just explaining his dish. Now we gotta hear why it's better than Nene's and her This Cannot Be! reaction.

I actually yawned at the end.
Untrustworthy
Unlike most of you, I'm not 100% convinced Souma's gonna win this- he doesn't have the greatest track record when it comes to matches where it's narratively possible for him to lose- but I still found the last page eyeroll worthy. Just gotta drag things out for one more week, eh?

That's basically this series' MO; it wouldn't be so annoying if it didn't follow the same exact setup as literally all of Soma's matches.
Now granted, he's lost before but unless he's still relevant for the remainder of the arc, I can't exactly see any justification for him to lose here.
He should lose, but everything points to him winning.

I mean, just going off of their reactions I feel like Nene's is still more impressive, but I don't think we're supposed to think that.

So, the latest volume came out and had rankings for the current "strongest chefs" and oh man lol. The rankings are as followed...
1. Tsukasa
2. Megishima
3. Isshiki
4. Mono
5. Erina
6. Soma/Takumi/Megumi
9.Nene
Now excuse me while I laugh hysterically.

I feel like Nene is gonna lose because she's too focused on Isshiki.
And the weird foodgasms are back.
And Erina has mastered Laundry, beware dirty clothes.
