Food Wars - It's In the Trash

! D'aww, that hug~
-
! There are some good panels there. I like the one with the three finalists sharing a good moment, eating and chatting.
-
! Maybe we finally going to get more Erina character and plot progression.
! Can't discern anything from this chapter so I'm looking forward to a summary and the translation. -
I got excited thinking that was the next raw and then I realised we haven't even had a scanlation yet.
-
! So In page 4, Jun was surprised becase she discovered in Hayama's body a new growing… feeling he had for her? :ninja:
-
That's kind of.. creepy, isn't she like 35 and his mother figure?
-
Yeah but she's a Loli
-
Why creepy? Neither of them is a kid.
-
We're goin' to cougar town

Kinda confused. Why was Dojima worried about Hayama, and was the worry for nothing in the end since he seemed to think that Soma/Kurokiba as rivals will prevent the worry?
Also, I get Subaru helped Soma grow, I guess, since it helped push himself beyond his normal limits, and his match with Alice didn't really do that, but I wish Alice was considered one of the rivals for Soma in the page filled with Soma's rivals. Guess that's what Erina's issue is going to be in the future. Her cooking will be stagnant until rivals rise up to her level and challenge her. Hopefully it'll be soon, or at least we see her compete with the other Top 10 chefs to see her level when compared to the rest of the class.
Now about the big cliffhanger. Will Kurokiba apologize to Alice? I hope that's an actual story line. The story can always use more Alice.
-
Maybe a great cook is versatile and doesn't depend only on an special talent, like the sense of smell. Being Hayama not completely confident he pushed himself using what could be his last shoot. And if in the future he depends to much on it, his special talent can become his weak point. …
And maybe Doujima sees the same thing than Jouichiro: being a part of a great generation of cooks, helps each of them to pulish their weak points. Eru's version can make it clearer.
Anyway between a great sense of taste, a great sense of smell and a great imagination, what would you choose to be a great cook?
-
Chapter turned out to be better than I thought. Was nice to see Soma reaffirm his desire to grow and recognise his rivals.
Sadly though, seems the next arc will focus on Erina's stagnation.
-
Yeah but she's a Loli
Oppai loli! Did you not see the marshmallow mountains she's carrying with her? :P

'bout damn time I say. That we get to hear/see more of Erina given that she is supposed to be the "main heroine" yet she hardly had much screentime or any arc about her after 100 chapters.

She's accumulated more panels than any other female in the manga. She's about equal with Aldini
-
Erina's cooking have to be really something. I'm curious.

Really? I'm pretty sure Megumi still dwarfs her when it comes to panel time

Megumi is a mascot akin to Kon from Bleach.

Well, character development is always nice.
-
Megumi is a mascot akin to Kon from Bleach.
As much as I like Erina, I humbly disagree with this statement.
-
Megumi is a mascot akin to Kon from Bleach.
If Megumi is a mascot then what does that make Nikumi? A pandaman?
-
It's a shame that the page with Soma's rivals doesn't include a woman.
-
@Galaxy:
Is there a reason why it's always Soma that gets the color chapter treatment?
When this whole jump plus initiative started, i thought that all the established titles would have their chance once or 2. One Piece got a few, then Naruto's end was announced and it was understandable that it would get the spotlight up to its end. But since then, only Soma. It's kinda sucks for the others. :sad: -

Maybe they're promoting the anime though?

Nikumi is at least helping with the procurement of ingredients.

TBF, it was only upon reading the scanlation that I realised Aldini wasn't Nikumi.
-

That's an intensely degrading remark about one of the best characters, and I resent it strongly.
-
The outcome is pleasing enough for me, although I would've preferred if Hayama and Ryou, or just one of them seem monstrous and not have this feeling of close competition between them. Maybe the author had something like this in mind, but the execution sucked.

She is the only female character in the manga. The rest are just types for now. Best girl by a landslide.

That's insulting to the likes of Alice and Nikumi who have both worked hard. Alice has even had a big part of her backstory told.

I feel like you're forgetting some of Kon's achievements.
-
Let's just put this to bed before it gets hostile, Alice is best girl, the others are alright but they're not Alice so who cares.
-
Great chapter to finish a great arc. Can't wait to see what's next.

I vote for a food field trip arc. Travel around japan cooking for various people and in cool places.
Or a secluded mountain training arc about "finding oneself"
-
Why are you guys taliking as if the chapter was released?
-
-

He kicked something that one time to save some ants and was a creepy pervert…am I missing anything?
-
Yeah…even after one chapter,the result still feel forced as hell to me..but I'm still curious about where the story will go from here
-
-
It's not so much the underage part, specialy as he's the one with the crush, but the part that she's been rasing him for 4-6 years.
-
i thought the amount of affection(not romanticly) was overwhelming because i dont think he ever showed her that emotional side.
-
Jun met Hayama when she was 26 and she's now 34-35. So, is actually 8 years assuming she adopted him then.
I think Hayama just really cares and loves her as a family since he probably would have wound up dead on the street if weren't for her.
I doubt the author going to make them romantically involve. Because that's just weird.
Though the author may play it for laugh since Yoshino thinks Hayama has a crush on her.–------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I got the impression from the first pages that when Hayama hugged Jun, he was expecting a different reaction from her; like if he expected that she also hugged him like he did to her. Then he felt embarrassed by that non requited emotion. That and the panel about Yoshino clearly hints the author is going by the way of romance with them.
-

It's why I hope to get to see Erina in a cooking battle against Hayama and such, so that we get some female competition for Souma which he doesn't beat instantly. I mean, even Hayama who WON this competition put himself below Erina without any thought when he told Ryou and Souma about the pecking order of the first years. Yet the boys at, lower or above Souma's level are seen as his rivals, but Erina isn't. Well, maybe that will change once they have a match but I won't see that coming for a long time. :/
-

He saved Ichigo, pretended to be Ichigo and a bunch of other stuff. Anyway, I digress, point is that Megumi is closer to being a cheerleader than a rival at this point. To be fair to her though, Aldini is only a rival in name. I hope some of the old guard get brought back to the fore in the arc after Erina's.
-
Soma and Ryo bullying Akira into making carpaccio for them and then all three finalists just casually hanging out there in the middle of the arena before the huge crowd of spectators sure is nice.
Megumi is a mascot akin to Kon from Bleach.
I guess this dumb meme from last year wasn't as dead as it seemed.
-
105 spoilers
! The 1st years are being sent to real restaurants as trainees in groups of 2. Soma gets paired up with… Hisako.
! The restaurant they are sent to has a very low status, with customers angrily leaving without even finishing their meals.Ohohoho, dis gun be gud.

! Why oh why oh why? They've already had enough panel time together.
-
Don't EVER ask about memes, if you forgot it, then it wasn't that good and asking just revives a bad meme.
-
! Why oh why oh why? They've already had enough panel time together.
! You confusing Hisako with someone? They've had 0 panel time together.
! Despite this chance likely being a chance to add to Soma's harem counter, I do hope we learn more about why Hisako decided to be devoted to Erina, and maybe learn more about Erina in the process. -

Oh you're right, Why would I confuse Erina's secretary with Kurokiba?! I totally never done that. YOU done that. Oh well, this will be interesting. It's a stepping stone towards Erina. Let's see what Soma can learn from her.
