No Soma thread? We have a new episode coming soon, one of the best MCs is finally BACK
Soon
What were they doing again? Some kind of tournament? I think I already know who wins but oh well, my secondary ass is just waiting for more Alice.
anime only here, when is souma gonna get some actual character developement? he's stayed pretty much the same since episode 1 and the only thing we saw was when he lost in the shokugeki
>>143564804
>one of the best MCs
Is this ironic?
>>143567147
He's alfa and doesn't lose his spaghetti and he's skilled without being overly powered so yeah
>>143567324
>alfa
Fuck off spic.
New episode tomorrow morning?
Post yfw nano.ripe ED
>>143569644
Wait fuck why is this pic in my hard drive?
Fucking christ.
Guess I'll just report myself.
>>143569683
Not fair, I didn't get to see it.
>>143569886
It was some random Regular Show picture that I must have saved from fucking years ago.
Thanks for the solid mods.
Also I really hope this season is split core, I want this scene animated so badly.
>>143564804
>one of the best MC
>>143570053
Hisako a cutest.
>hishoko will never chop your dick
>>143570838
That would be extremely painful anon
>>143564804
I'm actually anticipating Matsuoka's kitchen more than Souma's return
>>143566906
It ended at the end of the first round of that tournament thing where they all made curry. At least, I'm decently sure that's where it ended. It's been a while so the manga and anime are mixed up in my head.
Anyway, we get more of Alice's sidekick, so we'll get to see flashbacks of her when they do his backstory.
>>143567324
>being alpha makes him a great character automatically
I should expect crossboarders in shounenshit threads, I guess, but still, kill yourself.
>only 13 episodes
They literally showed stagiaire in the PV just to fucking tease us.
>22:00 on MX
Fuck seriously? I can't watch it live.
>>143572762
>13 episodes
What the fuck, why?
>>143572842
I wish I knew. Hopefully they're just splitting it and there's another 13 episodes in Winter.
>>143572842
>>143572762
JC is doing 4 shows this summer.
How big will the shitposting be when Central arc starts?
This show made me feel many things
mainly hunger and arousal
>>143572971
I don't think we will ever see it animated.
>>143572971
inevitable rindouposting
>>143571945
Didn't they get all the VAs together to do a cooking competition last season?
>>143571945
>Matsuouka putting the cooked meat back in the plate that held the meat when it was still raw
Still never forgot that.
>>143572912
The rest look like shit.
New restaurant popped up.
>>143573263
And he doesn't even get to eat.
>>143573263
>>143573299
This guy is so fucking akward bring on the ikemens like Nobuhiko or Hanae.
>>143571945
uchidamaaya gave me bitch impression ( with sakura) on ganganga.
but then she came and turned into sempai admirer
>what kind of sorcery is this
also qt taneda/takamina and kayano tenshii
>>143573055
I'm no food expert, but I'm pretty sure that a chef's jacket doesn't accentuate the breasts that like that.
>>143573378
>wanting ikemen
get out normie
the character matsuoka yoshitsugu's selling point is literally a harem king / big hit / autist(lel) seiyuu
>>143564804
>>143566966
Unfortunately, we're right about to enter the peak of the series and then it's mostly downhill from there. This is also about the point where people start to really dislike Souma.
They better animate the Hishoko restaurant part. Literally the best part in the whole manga.
>>143573670
Speak for yourself faggot. The recent chapters have been GOAT.
>>143573670
We just need more side cast in general and less Souma.
>>143573840
I agree that the recent chapters have been better actually, and I like Azami, but after his introduction we had this huge stretch of mostly exposition and pointless matches where threads slowed down like crazy and everyone was complaining. The latest chapter is my favorite since the tournament.
>Megloomy fags tears
Is there any other cooking mangas which also include recipes? I'm just started reading Addicted to Curry.
>>143574240
Why does it look like Soma just used instant transmission?
>>143574524
>Heh, nothing personnel kid
I like reading this but two things come to mind
1) I have a really shitty palate. Or at least one that I feel isn't quite experienced enough. So I end up feeling like I have to take the manga's word that "This is Good" when I don't know enough about individual flavors.
2) The Premise feels really simple and rather plain. Despite that I feel like the author makes it work.
>that feel when you don't ship characters you just love Megumi
>tfw Azami will never leave
>>143573055
Alice looked like a whore as always.
>>143573549
Yes, that's just nasty. Or maybe the jacket have breast pocket, which is still hillarious.
>>143572631
fuck off newfag
>>143574880
>tfw we went from fura fura to ear.rape
Is Meat Girl going to make Dons forever?
I mean it's fine but it feels like she has two gimmicks. Meat AND Don.
Did the hisako and souma ship sunk?
They fit each other well
>>143575563
Hisako is a fag hag now.
>>143575355
That's the danger I think a lot of the characters' specialties fall into. Just specializing in meat isn't quite as varied as specializing in food to suit the eater, or state of the art cooking techniques, or low quality ingredients.
>>143572986
>get motivated by the first season to cook something fancy for once
>fail miserably
They make it look so easy.
>>143575822
Every character in SnS has been cooking for most of their lives. Just keep trying!
This character has had this dreading looming feeling and I have no idea if he's going to actually do anything or if it's just going to be one big joke
I'm about to find out.
He scored higher than meat girl.
I'm dead
>>143575563
It was never a thing.
I hope if nothing else, they animate my OTP. I don't care if she doesn't win, the arc with her and Soma is just too cute.
>>143573263
>>143573299
Do you happen to know the name of this? I want to watch it but can't seem to find it
How you praised your queen and goddess Erina today?
>>143573963
I guess the "pointless matches" are supposed to set the powerlevels straight, so we know who's going to be the star of future, actually important matches
>ending a show IN THE MIDDLE OF A TOURNAMENT
I won't ever forget.
But yeah. I'm 100% ready for more impossibly tasty dishes.
>>143573055
Anime sucks. Who would have thought?
>>143575822
Start with the basics anon. Soma's Chaliapin were simple and tasty, and the pork roast is literally just mashed potatoes wrapped in bacon then baked.
So will Erina be irrelevant this season?
Will we ever get dere Erina animated?
Will tsundere-chan's assistant get any meaningful screen time? She was my favorite.
>>143577950
Probably not this season. Come back in one year.
>>143578066
Well shit. Probably gonna pick up the manga soon anyways, she can wait for me.
>>143577950
She gets some meaningful development and focus in a arc where she's also together with Souma. Preview shows that they might reach it in the anime.
Is CR going to stream S2 like they did with S1?
>>143578190
Yeah I did see an announcement that it was added to their lineup
This series went to shit when Aizen was introduced.
Is this manga about cooking?
http://www.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=825835&showfiles=1
Why are there multiple OPs and EDs for this release?
>>143578557
It's a manga about delinquents and criminals being rehabilitated through cooking.
>>143578619
That actually sounds much more interesting.
Why is Megumi such a shit?
>>143578832
It's just that she's too pure and perfect for this world.
>>143577937
Erina isn't super prominent during the election, but we'll get some good stuff like shoujo manga.
>>143578832
Ruined for marriage.
>>143564804
I thought Souma was the flattest, dullest and most boring character of the show. Everyone else had a thing going for them. Souma was just skillboy. No identity. No he's just best because.
>>143579380
well he's built up in the beginning by the locals in his hometown because he's been working at his pop's restaurant for years, but when he gets to the school, pretty much everyone has been cooking their whole lives as well. That's why his dad wanted him to go to that school, so he would improve and not act like he's #2, #1 being his dad.
This is an anime only person's perspective on the matter though so disregard.
>>143579380
Souma will get his character development arc soon after Azami leaves. Then we will find out about his mom.
>>143579380
>No he's just best because
But he isn't the best. That's constantly reinforced. He just has potential to become the best and to inspire his friends to become better.
>>143578832
She's literally useless without Soma's dick there to suck.
>>143579721
She defeated one of Central's Chosen without needing Soma's help. Megumi's strong enough to stand on her own now.
>>143578832
That pose, man.
Can't wait for this crap arc to end so these Erinafags will stop shitposting and fuck off.
>>143580792
Here's your reply.
>>143580792
>implying next arc wouldn't be all about romancing Erina
>>143580969
Soma and the gang get far thanks to Erina's studies, and Azami gets pissed and expels Erina instead. Are you ready?
>>143581081
Azami has already stated that he needs Erina for his plans. If he expelled her, she and grandpa could just take a flight anywhere and he'd never get her.
>>143579760
>Does nothing but panic in the last chapter
No one gives a shit about the fodder Megumi beats
>>143581224
What does he need her for again? Just for the reputation of the God Tongue/Nakiri bloodline and taste testing? If it's just judgment, then he could use Hayama since taste and smell are interconnected. It's not out of the equation especially with his methods.
It'd be interesting if she became exiled just like Azami did and also ends up like Joichirou with traveling the world and following his philosophy of cooking.
What would your reaction be to the police showing up in the middle the final battle against Azami and arresting him? They just explain that child abuse is against the law and chastise the cast for not having reported him sooner.
>>143581818
rate the manga a 10/10 and buy the volumes
Hate to be that guy, but how long until the episode airs? I just read somewhere that it comes out in 3 hours, but I remember last season aired much later.
>>143581818
>the police
>arresting a man who plans on shutting down every fast food chain in the country
I don't think they have the power.
>>143581850
Anon, how does Azami even have that power?
>>143581849
12pm est
>>143582184
This is the guy who took control of an entire academy because 6 teenagers voted for him. If 12 teenagers support him, even the prime minister has no chance against Azami.
>>143582271
Well 2bh whoever implemented the retarded "12-teens-in-charge-of-everything" system should be blamed here, azami just used it to his advantage
>>143582271
He took control of an academy because 6 of the 10 Elite Council who run the school voted for him. There's nothing that's going to allow Azami to overcome the fact that there is always going to be a high demand for cheap, fast, low-quality food.
I dropped this in the curry tournament, it was just too damn repetitive, does it get better?
>>143578832
She's trying!
Do you think we'll see the best character today?
>>143582670
Seems likely. Season One didn't bother to explain how Marui and Smokey got knocked out of the tournament so that'll need to be addressed.
>>143564804
>13 eps WITH stagiaire
We're doomed.

>>143582955
>a fancy restaurant
What country? Fancy restaurants in Murrica aren't worth shit
>>143582981
Hungary.
>>143583104
How many stars does it have?
>>143583104
I may be wrong but Hungary isn't exactly known for good food is it? At least not high cuisine
>>143583226
The hotel was 4 stars, I don't know if the restaurant was the same, never asked.
>>143583256
Don't know about that.
>>143581532
We don't know exactly. We just know that she's "the key" to his plan, so he can't lose her. Of course, he thinks that no matter what she'll cave no matter how much she rebels atm. This will ultimately be his undoing of course.
The new ED better be on par or better than the previous ones or so help me
>>143578585
Because the OP/ED changes slightly every episode.
>>143583655
>He doesn't know
Lower your expectations now
So is that the new system? All these WSJ shows are getting 13 ep seasons twice a year instead of 24 a year. Are the japs trying to make it so the hype does not die?
>>143583898

It's 13 episodes and they're gonna reach the stagiaire arc.
They'll probably finish it this episode.
>SERVING ALREADY
>Six minutes in
Holy shit JC
>>143585377
I know, but after S1, it feels weird.
Subs when roughly? Just less than 3 hours time or something, right?
this is so rushed
>>143585432
Rushed as fuck, but still, I don't think they're skipping anything.
>>143585465
They skipped Souma/Ryouko's flashback.
>>143585445
So <3 hours from now heck yes.
Smoke a shit. I hope he fails.
>>143585487
I'm glad they all live in a world where no-one has yet discovered the existence of monosodium glutamate.
>>143573670
If you are talking about the new season, no, it's not the downhill and people started to dislike Souma when the Azamicalypse happened.
If you are talking about the recent chapters, fuck you, they have been great and people are starting to like Souma again.
I hope they change the OP/ED each episode like last season.
They only changed a small segment of the ED though
>no eyecatch
Shit.

Literally read merely the ~dozen posts above yours.
>>143579107
If by that you mean she's an annoying cardboard "MC's main squeeze" character, then yes.
If by that you aim to deflect the question by saying "Cuz muh Waifu is le perfect!11!", then go fuck yourself.
and for the record, Yuki Yoshino is awesome because she's everything Megumi is not. Lighthearted, fun, and has no problem with getting naked.
That's the kind of girl any MC should go for, not this sort of puritan garbage like Megumi.
Shota Souma a cute.
>tfw this will only lead me to re-read the manga from this point again
watching ongoing is suffering
I prefer the slower pace of S1, but given that they only have 13 episodes, it's not too bad.
>>143585691
I can read rice and soup, but what's akazu?
>>143585766
>>143585771
It's okazu as in snack
>>143585661
Too bad she is pregnant with my child fuccboi.
>>143585726
Cardboard? Megumi's had the most complete character arc of anyone in the manga. And she's not "MC's main squeeze," she's Souma's closest and most dependable friend. Souma is destined for Erina.
>>143581532
His plans is all about top tier Elite food being mass produced by students, and all dishes approved by him and Central E10.
But without induviduality and creativity, you can't create new dishes and at some point it will stagnate.
There's where the God Tongue's enters in the plan.
>>143585842
I've only watched the anime so far. At this point in the anime she's nothing but a walking panic attack.
The foodgasm looked different.
OP
>>143582942
Maybe it's split and it ends by the start of stagiaire.
Let's hope.
Even in the OP, Megu be doing the boxing pose.
That lewd Erina in the OP
>>143585933
Nah, we're getting everything with this pace.
>>143585933
Shinomiya people were in teh OP
>>143585892
Megumi is a worrier, but over the course of the series she gets better and better and handling it and gains enough confidence to take on seriously intimidating chefs.
>>143585967
MUH DICKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

>Episode 5-6 Souma vs Giganigga (prep + match)
>Episode 7 Kurokiba vs Hayama
>Episode 8-10 Finals (prep, match, end of tournament)
>Episode 11-13 Stagiare
Eh.
>>143586014
Is this season only 13 episodes????
>>143586135
Have you even read this thread at all?
>>143586076
can probably fit in the final in 2
i'm ok with this pace, it's roughly the same as the pace of last episodes from season 1
>>143586076
Hayama vs Hishoko is very short, so they can do it in 5 minutes so they can start Aldini match in episode 3 and leave episode 4 for the end of it and prep of Souma vs Giganigga maych.
I'm not at home, so guys, how fast are they going?
Fast? Too rushed? Ludicrous speed?
Or is it fine and at least the first episode was ok?
>>143586176
It's fast, but it's not bad.
>>143586176
They adapted 5 chapters this episode.
>>143586221
>>143586230
Wait... the first episode of season 2 is out??
>>143586176
if it were any slower the entire season would've been the tournament. I guess they don't want that.

Anon stop necro'ing a post you didn't even read properly.
>>143585988
where
You should be happy they are going this fast an entire tournament with the pacing of last season would get boring as all fuck. Next arc is the best one anyway.
Damm I was expecting an episode to ease back into things, but they went straight into the tournament.
I imagine there's going to be an episode on each match, with 2-3 for the final, and maybe an extra to introduce gigganigga and his whole shtick, which leaves about 3 where they could fit the Stagliare arc.
I just wonder what the hell is happening with Hayama in manga right now
>>143588571
There's at least one beach episode.

Also Soma's bento matched the theme better anyway. Gastronomy loses it's value fast in a competition to cook what is essentially a lunchbox meal.
Did Alice have such a generous chest in the manga too?
From Shokugeki's twitter.
>>143590101
>>143590068
I don't know, but i prefer Yuki's chest size.
Not sure if it's good or bad, but the second season might cover 55 chapters (61 - 116).
I thought it was great episode overall.
>no Gigga with them.
Ah, come on.
>>143590068
>>143590197
I fucking knew it, she didn't. Why did they have to make everyone a titty monster in the adaptation? Glad I didn't pick it up.
