It stopped being about food and development and making good dishes to just be "look at my dish you can buy in at a gas station, that tastes 100x better than any food you can make cause i put my feelings into it" and "look at me, my food tastes better cause i can use 2 knifes at the same time". they sortof lost their meaning in the latter part of the manga. and in the latter part they have a maniac with a chainsaw, a machine that literally spews out gas and "odor" (and gasoline has quite a sticky and persistent smell) cutting up meat, not even affecting the taste. They started it all out by expelling a student cause of his faint citrusy perfume, cause it would (could) ruin the senses/taste of a dish. but it took quite a steep fall once they started introducing all the new god tongue things into it. It was interesting, explained the food in a way that made it interesting and made a decent story out of it. I really like the earlier part of this manga. As someone that likes to cook as well, it honestly makes me want to start cooking as well. However it's a story that grips me and keeps me wanting more. I first thought if this as a time filler while my other mangas got updated. Shokugeki no Soma is an extremely enetertaining story. It took me a long while and a bit of research to fully know all the characters and their personalities. My one real problem is that there's too much that just pushed right into your face right away. Each ones have their moments to shine and do something great. I've been coming across those a lot lately and I can't help but love them.Īll are somewhat stereotypical but they're just really endearing. And one other thing that I found completely awesome was the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure reference. It's a manga based on food so it better provide well detailed dishes and it delivered. One thing that is drawn really well is the food. As I said early, it explores the erotic vibe food can sometimes give and shows in great detail how that goes. However there's many hilarious visuals it often provides. There's nothing special or new about the artwork. It's new and refreshing for me and it's something I want to keep reading.Īt first it's exactly what you expect in a shounen. It explores the erotic side of food and describes the situation in hilarious detail.

It reminds me of those cooking competitions seen on television but given the anime remix. It's really common but has a great twist using food as the key plot point.


Hero tries to find ways to win seemingly impossible tasks The story follows the basic manga hero arc. All this is in preparation to one day run his family's restaurant and surpassing his father. There he brings his own unique style to completely shock everyone and try to become the best chef. Yukihira Souma is a talented chef that is told by his father to hone his skills at a world-renowned cooking academy, Tootsuki Cooking Academy. However, I couldn't wait until next spring and just read the manga anyways.
