It’s not perfect, as this little match I feel conflates a couple things, but otherwise does a solid job of showcasing how crafty and creative Soma can be and how that adds an edge to his cooking. The character work on the other hand is generally pretty solid, and acts as a microcosm argument for the grander battle at work here: Creativity/Ingenuity vs Formula/Adherence. You know, girl, it would be easier to just jot down the quotes you liked on index cards. There’s so very little here that’s unique to this particular arc and I think that speaks to the big problem Soma has with varying up its formula. He sets into motion the complete dismantlement of all the Academy’s clubs, all in an effort to bring about a perfect, uniform cooking where only the best chefs create new dishes and the masses have but to learn them. Can Soma and his friends return the institute to what it once was or will they too eventually be crushed beneath Azami’s far-reaching ideals? Review: Chapter 213:Ī big problem I have with these latest chapters is how you really could transpose these Shokugeki to any other part of the manga, change very little, and it wouldn’t feel any different. He sets about turning the elite council of ten against the Academy’s head, Erina’s grandfather, Senzaemon Nakiri and electing Azami as his successor.īut Azami’s plans don’t stop there. But the Totsuki institute faces a major upheaval as Erina’s father, Azami, returns from banishment. He’s overcome the student body thinning training camp, competed in the school wide tournament, survived the Stagiaire event, and more. Since that time Soma has faced countless challenges at the Totsuki Culinary Academy. Joichiro issues Soma a challenge, that if he can survive the most elite culinary school in Japan, where only the top 10% manage to graduate, then Joichiro will acknowledge him as worthy of taking over the restaurant.
