| So the first seat let him off just like that, would've been weird if he had beaten him after all. The big reveal in the end, I did not remember that Erina still doesn't know who Souma's father is. There were a few things in this season that I did not like. I did not mind the worse animation all that much. But all that central business and the lack of fanservice made it definitely less enjoyable than the last season. 8/10 |
| I'm going to assume Soma's mother is to "blame" for his father's change. It's rediculous that he has such a big influence over this series though :/ At least Erina finally knows the truth. The reveal was handled nicely with the music |
 |
| It was obvious that Souma would lose against Eishi but it was great. And damn that cliffhanger ! This season was really great, fortunately I can watch the following right now :D |
 |
| Even though Souma was defeated, the plot demands that he should not join the Central. Also, how convenient they never told Erina about Souma's dad and its worse when she realizes for an EXTREMELY convenient scene. The only good thing about the final episode is that I could see Tsukasa sexy abs. What a disappointment this first half of S3, until the second half of ep 5, this season was ok but it went downhill quickly with the generic villain, plot armor, forced plot conveniences and boring conclusions. The worst part is that this does not end. 4/10 for the anime. |

| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Like father, like daughter, I suppose in this case. Certainly wasn't expecting that in all honesty but I feel like this'll irk a bit in the future. I'm guessing the fact that Joichirou-san's wife brought about a certain change in him (positive albeit, from his perspective) has been misunderstood by this gentleman. Just ring him up and he'll clear everything... Anyway, about time for Erina to find out too. I can't wait to see what'll transpire as a result of this, now. Nakiri Azami marrying into the family is definitely a surprise though. But good lord, he just creeps the fudge out of me lol. A good conclusion to the battle the 1st and Soma too. He'd no chance in hell to beating him but it's good to see that he at least managed to put up an impressive fight. Commentating from the three girls were great as well. All in all, it's been a slightly lackluster second half in all honesty. Concept of it isn't too bad but execution of it isn't exactly impressive. But hey, it's a Shounen show and, if it nails that feeling and excitement, I'm totally in xD. First half with the battle with the former 8 was entertaining and I much preferred that in all honesty. But then again, the 2nd half was pretty much buildup for what's to come next so hopefully that'll deliver. Animation Quality seems pretty identical to Season 2's so no issues with that either. Sound Department, on the other hand, is strong as ever. My favorite OST of the lot being Naikiri Erina's theme. I'd been hearing this from like two weeks back and it's still honey to my ears. Going to settle with a solid 8/10 here. Edit: Had the pleasure of rewatching this and I’ve to admit that the second half definitely felt lackluster once again. In particular, Eizan’s matchup with Soma... |

| Ah idk why everyone is so fixated on soumas dad . I don't see anything special about him, not enough info or I just feel like they are just throwing his name around. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| It was kind of a relief that Tsukasa didn't go through with having Souma join Central when he realized that he might be more of a liability to the organization thanks to his unbending will and eccentric creativity as a chef. Now that he's seen as a considerable threat along with the other first-years, it looks like the Great Revolution would be a tougher fight to win than Azami thinks. It's a shame that Mito and Megumi's Shokugekis in addition to Marui's were all glossed over. It would've been nice to see more of it but I can see why they rushed through it. Erina finding out about Joichiro being Souma's dad was an awesome cliffhanger to end this season's first half after all~ I would've liked this season more if it weren't for how ridiculous the whole Central thing is but it's decent. |

| okay that was I was waiting for, the reveal of Souma's father |
| Shinomiya. Soma sees Erina? Chestnuts? A charcoal grill? Soma knew they were there. Erina oppai. Dat dress break. Dat Erina body. Harmony. Tsukasa won. Soma is a wild card. A few days later. Megumi and Nikumi. They won. Ryoko. Azami at the door. Fumio dropping that "Nakamura" on Azami like he ain't shit. Former dorm member? 3rd seat in his 1st year and 1st seat the next. Oh snap! Soma called him Nakamura. Azami looked up to Joichiro? The ED theme playing during the reveal was so perfect. Best ending. Original watch date: 3/2020 |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| Final episode of the season was a good one, with a nice little reveal to Erina, as she finally finds out that the chef she spent months cursing and rejecting, was the son of the chef she idolized, same goes for Azami too. Definitely serves as a good enough cliffhanger for the next cour. Overall, this season's hard to judge, but I'd probably go with a 5/10. I enjoyed the Moon Festival arc a lot and its one of my favorite Shokugeki no Soma arcs out there (that arc would be an 8/10 alone), although the Stagiaire arc and the first season arcs are mainly better. The flow of goodness definitely got interrupted when Azami and Central decided to be a thing and overall, I enjoyed some of the episodes (Soma vs Eishi in particular) and the effort actually put in the storyline but the actual motives of Central still were painfully poor in its writing, and some of what made Shokugeki no Soma special in the first place, felt a bit too much in the background sadly. And also the visuals, a more obvious downgrade compared to how the second season downgraded from the first. Way too many panned shots, drawings generally looked a lot cheaper and budget (which I don't mind, but is disappointing considering the same studio and director were working on all seasons). |
| Not surprising and pridictable that Soma would be the one to lose, but Tsukasa would change his mind about him joining in anyway after knowing his capabilities. The new director is just straight up creepy. |

AhriTheS3xyFox said: Not surprising and pridictable that Soma would be the one to lose, but Tsukasa would change his mind about him joining in anyway after knowing his capabilities. Exactly. It would be stupid and inconsistent with the prior story development if Soma just beat Tsukasa and I just couldn't see the anime continuing with Soma being a member of Central. So this was really the only way it could've gone. |
| shounen dads jus a diff breed |

| And the truth comes out at last... |
