Shokugeki no Somo

If you would have told me 10 years ago that I would love anime about cooking I probably would've laughed and called you gay. How the fuck did they do it?

In the end you were the one who was gay.

Interesting characters

>How the fuck did they do it?
I'm not sure why you think a story revolving around cooking would be more difficult to make interesting than a story revolving around something else.

I'm not sure either. I guess I'm trying to imagine myself watching something cooking related and all I can think about is food network. This anime just completely took me by surprise with how great it is.

I think they just managed to make it believable. They didn't make the protag some elite badass but still managed to make him cool and good enough to keep you interested, and like someone else said. There are plenty of interesting characters.

Came for the girls,stayed for the boys

The girls.

Overrated trash.

Shokugeki is as much about food as kuroko is about basketball: it's not.

>10 years ago
Yakitate Japan

>Shokugeki is as much about food as kuroko is about basketball: it's not.
What? They're cooking all the time, The reciples are legit things, They work irl and you have like 3 chapters of judges saying why x dish is better.

>boys
This, they're the best

>This anime just completely took me by surprise with how great it is.
Hopefully S3 is not as rushed as S2 was

>jinxing it

Who is that again

It goes to complete shit

Well there were some rather, let's call them underwhelming series before this.

>tfw no one talks about genuinely best cooking anime

Not really

>THIS UMAMI EXPLOSION
>THE UMAMI IS OVERFLOWING
>THE UMAMI KEEPS GOING
>THE UMAMI FROM THE FISH AND THE MEAT
>UMAMI
>UMAMI
>UMAMI
It's starting to sound like a broken record

...

What went wrong

>Pic Related

It's just a variation of a sports story.

>dude enters a competitive environment
>trains
>learns
>experiences big wins and big loses
>meets friends and rivals
>finds love
>grows

So you didn't read Yakitate Japan? Fucking newfag.

Because the entire system is bullshit. How that one girl won with ANCIENT CHINESE MEDICINAL COOKING is beyond me

>How that one girl won with ANCIENT CHINESE MEDICINAL COOKING is beyond me
What?

The secretary's "cooking style" is ANCIENT CHINESE MEDICINAL COOKING

Let me tell you that real chinese medicinal food is fucking horrible. Fucking jellied tortoises are rank

I guess you're talking about Yakitate Japan?

Bak kut teh is good

Let them revel in their contribution to the culinary dictionary, user

It really is just another sports manga.

Except one where the girls could reasonably be rivals and it's such a waste that they're either all a little worse at cooking or perpetually sidelined because they are just that much better

It a sport manga where you don't need to know/explain complicated rules

Cute girls.

The dishes are the best part

>The secretary's "cooking style" is ANCIENT CHINESE MEDICINAL COOKING
Holy fucking shit are you retarded in the brain user? Her cooking style is just "Medicinal Cooking". She just adapted Chinese into her "Medicinal Cooking" that one round. And even if you claim chinese medicinal food to be horrible, why do you imply Hisakos dish to taste horrible? Obviously she wouldn't serve something that isn't tasty to the judges in the first place so fuck off with your retardness and research more

Hishoko best girl

Did you forget about the anime about bread and SOLAR HANDS?

Indeed

Go back to facebook.

No. They're only good looking

FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

>What is Iron Wok Jan

no

It's pretty standard shonen but entertaining. I like how it actully feels like they're in an elite academy with how competitive and egotistical the students are compared to BnHA where it seems like the students are retarded shitters.

also S O L A R A N U S

>Yukihira's special ingredients are an old boot, a rubber tire, a bent tin can and a used condom!
>N-Nani!? How can something like this taste so good? I literally cannot stop eating!
>DUDE YUKIHIRA WINS LMAO

fpbp. but seriously OP you sound like a pretty lame guy

Read it to find out

you won't rick me Azami.

>DUDE HYPERBOLE LMAO
Just stop reading if you hate it so much.

wtf is medicinal cooking anyway? can medicine taste good?

GOOGLE IT

This

Is the anime better than the manga?

Maybe.

Should I read or wait for the anime?

>Iron Wok Jan
>Using maggots to increase the fat in ostrich meat
Shit was fucked

12/10 girls

anime is glorious watch it and if you get hooked just continue reading it, is still good but not as good as the anime

Name one anime that is better than its source manga

Gintama, Sailormoon, K-On!.

Boku no Hero

Okay thanks for the advice

She lied to you.

...

hunter x hunter

Not really.

When the bar is set so low it's pretty hard not to exceed it.

Fuck off Soma

Chunni is sexy

>sexist

>BnHA where it seems like the students are autistic spergs
fixed

Not really

I read for Megumi.

Are we getting spoilers earlier?

Yep we always get early spoilers before a Holiday

So are spoilers later or tomorrow?

I dunno if it's just me filtering out the word but I noticed they've said it a lot less in the recent couple of chapters.

Especially Erina. Good looking is the only thing she has.

>ademy with how competitive and eg
Yu Yu Hakusho

Megumi is the reason why I am still here

...

No, best boy did nothing wrong.

>Souma
>best

He is average.

He's beautiful

>He's beautiful
I call him daddy

Is she the most useless and irrelevant top first year? Why does she exist.

Nah that's Meat.

Meat is PSD tier, I was talking about the Top 9.

This, Megumi is so cute.

Literally me.

>literally who some weeks ago.
>now sexiest shokugeki boy.

Is it normal or weird that Erina and Megumi's popularity are divided. Erina was always popular in the East while Megumi is more popular in the West

I like both, I don't give a fuck.

It's not really divided. Yes Erina was more popular in the East but Megumi was still loved quite a bit their while in the West, Megumi is the most beloved and Erina is very hated but because of her development it's now more mixed in the West since Erina is beloved wholefully now but besides all that, WHO THE FUCK CARES!
