This show is ridiculous. I love it.
It's one of those shows I think anyone will enjoy, but they need to not take it seriously at all. It's a fun watch.

Welcome Grey-Zone from the UBW forums, I would not consider Erina to be either a villain nor antagonist!~


If they want to develop Erina that way (i.e. "melting the ice queen", or doing a plot twist that her personality is actually much different from what we were shown until now) they better do it good. I do not think that it's impossible (I am not like Fai/CookingPriest from ubw subforum who shittalks every single thing about things he hates), but it's not something trivial either. If they pull it off it would probably become a masterpiece, same if they decide to continue with her as a villain until the end. But what I don't want to see is her being forced onto the reader just because of popularity polls or something like that.

tl;dr I am fine with her AFTER a PROPER deveopment for her (in case such a thing happens), but until then I can only consider her as an antagonist.

Is there really meaning behind a constant focus on boobs jiggling and defying gravity? It's distracting and makes it seem like people who like the series are nothing but perverts.[/quote]

Were food perverts and enjoy the showmanship of foodgasms. The moment where we are exposed to a foodgasm; it makes your mouth water a bit more, your stomach growls just a little harder than before, and you want that dish of food in your body so much so that your body doesn't just want it, it needs that food to go on.

@towhoeverthisisquotedfrom Have you read the manga? No? This is actually one of the instances where ecchi is NOT senseless. In other words, it's not mindless and is acceptable.

If you've watched Nisekoi, Erina is this anime's version of Chitoge. See the comparison? So no, she's not an antagonist. Leading lady? (Probably) Yes.

Reactions were not as off-putting as in last episode so maybe it will be fine to watch. Still, it's a bit too heavy on cliches for my taste... eh.

Oh yeah, and she's 15, suuuure...

Well, the reactions are illustrations of taste.
Disgusting things tend to be illustrated, well, not that positively.

I loved that fanservice of Erina. A seriously exotic way of being caressed by angels. She just couldn't admit that even commoners make the best food out of simple ingredients. That old guy at the end should just save Souma from being not accepted.

Great episode again. The art, animation and OST like the first episode was fantastic once more. =D

Hopefully, Souma can teach Erina that you should never judge a book by it's cover. Talented cooks can come from any background and dismissing some as commoners will always come back to screw you up in the future.

Still, Erina was acting really cute when she struggled to accept the brilliance of Souma's dish. =3

Her grandfather, though, looks ripped alright. I wouldn't mess with him at all. O_O

I enjoyed this episode more than the last one. Glad we saw Souma's hot dad a bit more at the beginning. He seems to have traveled quite a lot in this short time.
The ending was surprising. I didn't expect Erina to make Souma fail, that felt really bitchy from her part. But it looks like he will still be able to enter the academy next episode thanks to Erina's grandfather.

Uhm, no... I have not watched/read Nisekoi. And Erina would be a "typical" tsundere if she said something like "it' DISGUSTING! but it's barely enough for a student of this academy to pass" and I would be OK with her like that at that point, but she just had to go full bi*ch mode and fail him because of prejudice originating from her ideology. But because she has "good looks" people don't want to admit that she is unsympathetic, or even hateable

Now this is when the series starts getting great. I have absolutely no complaints. It's a very faithful adaption, and I'm glad they finished including the bits of chapter 1 in this episode, because they're funny, and also set up the romance aspect.

Also, love how her grandpa has already started his stripping running gag!

The ED for this series is great, the OP is okay. But both the song and the accompaning animation for the ED is fantastic. I love art reinterpretations with anime characters, not unlike what they did with Death Note!

Next week the Tadokoro arrives!

I laughed a bit too much at the flashback scene of Erina as a 3 month old.
I'm glad this ep was less orgasm heavy than the previous one. Erina's such a bitch though ;-; A kawaii bitch, so I'm conflicted.

Oh I like Erina, she's haughty yet cute.

Souma's confident is really something tho. A bit too confident for my taste.

So that's what they meant when they called Erina the villian of the show. I thought she would pass him after saying that the food was disgusting, but I guess room for more drama. Poseidon liked the food so he passed I guess.

If he's already this skilled, the chefs who served Erina were nothing compared to Souma as none of them able to satisfy her. But well let's just see how it's gonna turned out next.

It means that basically every single student who is still in the school is probably better than any of the transfer applicants, unless Erina's first-impression ability-judgement failing is not only restricted to Souma-like people.

At the very least none of them would even reach mid-tier in the school.

I always forget that Soma is the one person that Erina has serious issues dealing with. She couldn't accept his lowly upbringing and his meager daily shop. Well... that perception will change soon enough.

Have to agree that this show is seriously faithful to the original material. I just love how they managed to animate Erina's "frustrated" moments. Pure Gold!

Grandpa stripped (albeit only halfway)!!!!
Manga readers all know what that means XD

Megumi and Erina are quite default setting characters. I still prefer Nikumi and Alice over both of them. Megumi's development doesn't occur until way late into the series (like "Near most latest chapters" late), but Nikumi and Alice were already hella good from the get-go.

Still, the Aldini brothers are going to be fun to watch. Hope we'll get to see Isami's transformation before the season ends.

As expected, the academy's a bunch of rich spoiled kids ... too bad Erina scared them all away! Making rice with seasoning - something simple but delicious like I thought. More foodgasms and TINY SOUMA ANGELS FLYING TOWARDS HER LOL XD Too bad she ended up failing him anyway ... his reaction was hilarious :P IT'S OKAY SOUMA YOU CAN COME COOK FOR ME INSTEAD OKAY??? XD
His dad's off cooking at a bunch of different places ... I'm a little jealous :( Seems like he's pretty well known too. Ah well, it seems like grandfather's here to save the day! :P This show has so many funny moments - like at the end, Erina's random metaphors (which don't make any sense), Souma's facial expressions ... ah well, seems like Souma will get accepted anyway of course, and then classes begin? :O Darn, can't wait for the next episode D:

UnHoly cow! That was another crazy epic episode!
lol at Souma, being kicked by high-class citizen and treated like a low-class commoner but Souma isn't bothered by it, in fact the one that was being bullied is the one that kicked him in the first place.
OMG Goddess Erina ojou-sama as the examiner!
Erina's first words are "Not enough depth of flavor." is a win win hilariousness!
I bet Hisako is one of Erina's dog/step-slave/underling.
Souma touched Erina ojou-sama!!!
A magnificent knife is more of an attention grabber for Souma rather than hearing who Erina really is.
That picture of Souma on his student application from really cracks me up!
After preparing his dish ... Souma like a boss! Not even intimidated to Erina.
The evil laugh of Souma (@20:11) is really priceless! The angels are full of souma-chibi-angels!
Erina is in total denial that she couldn't accept it and also in total annoyance decided that it was disgusting! But her grandfather was secretly monitoring the test and gave a taste so there would be no problem for Souma.

Yes, I read the manga. I'm caught up to the latest chapter (113) and have been reading it for some time. I was excited for the anime. Everything about the anime so far is great except for the fanservice being taken up to a higher level than the manga. I'm just worried it's going to keep doing this.


I absolutely disagree with you. The manga actually seems more sexual to me. The scene in the anime was in my opinion just stupid fun, and I don't see anything wrong with it. In the manga, it almost looks like something straight out of Fakku.


I utterly and completely disagree with you. The manga is indeed sexual with the foodgasms, but it's nowhere near as bad as the anime. The anime is just way too over the top with the foodgasms. It actually made me facepalm and go "Really?". And before you ask, yeah I've read the manga and I'm caught up. The anime is still worse with the foodgasms than the manga. So far at least. As for your last sentence; and the anime doesn't? If you think the manga is like something straight out of Fakku but the anime isn't then you're either high or just being silly.

With all that said, it's a matter of opinions. Not everyone will see things the same way. Just because I think they're over the top doesn't mean you or anyone else will.

On topic. Erina frustrates me just as much as she does in the manga. At least the next episode will have best grill.
