haha that start xD expected Megumi or Erina (does she even have to participate?) but that was even better :D And Souma is not giving a shit about her attitude lol

As it turns out Erina in fact does have to participate and Megumi doesn't seem to enjoy it. Well who would enjoy being in that hostile environment between the chef and Erina :D

Nice end. Hisako finally dropping the hostility towards Souma and Megumi even getting deserved praise from Erina!

Even as an anime-only watcher, I could tell this was rushed. But it's okay since the content is great. I'm loving this Stagiare arc a lot! Souma and Hisako working together was awesome. I especially loved the parallel made between Hisako and Erina and Souma and his dad. Also, Erina basically taking over that restaurant was funny. It was also nice seeing her work with Megumi. But I'm really going to need to start the manga when this is over.

Megumi's voice is so irritating.

Liked the odd pairings, hopefully we see where the other students ended up, can't wait for next week at Shinomiya's!

Erina being mad at anyone for being smug and bratty is the most delicious irony. Or rather hypocrisy.
Around and around the cycle goes.

One of my favourite episode so far.
It reminds me a bit of the first season which is a good variety, especially after 10 episodes of "fighting".
Also loved the relationship between Souma x Hisako.

As someone who read the manga I find the pacing of this episode terribly rushed.

They butchered most of Erina & Megumi part. They also skipped the part at the begging when Jun remembers how she barely managed to pass the Stagiaire. Some other nice scenes were also skipped, but I will leave it at that.

Seriously the 2nd season is disappointing and rushed as hell even though S1 was perfect. S2 is not only rushed but I feel like the animation got worse.

That aside, if you are an anime only I don't think you'd have any troubles with the anime overall. But as for me I'm glad I switched to the manga after season 1 ended.

If they are ever going to make a third season I hope it follows the manga closely just like season 1.

Eeeeehhhhh Arato Hisako returns. Working actual restaurants is tough, add a bullet train of people, and it's tough at sonic speed. Like, Yukihira, I realized what it meant by "leave a visible mark" pretty early on. Nice seeing both the paring between those two and Erina with Megumi, quite enjoyable.

I'm still watching this EP and I must say, I was always on the fence about this series artwork (it works for still images but there's stone cold zero fluidity), but this episode looks total crap. I'm getting flashbacks from Ergo Proxy right here... luckily both series have otherwise good content to carry me through.

Easily the best episode of the season. Although Shokugeki no Souma does its food battles well, I've gotta say the characters and their development is where its true strength is. Souma's additional loss leading to the realization that he needs something to define his cooking is great stuff; really looking forward to seeing that explored, although the anime might cut it a bit too short for my liking.

I'm thinking I'll check out the manga after this season ends.

And Erina and Megumi working so well together was kind of cool.

Another Damn good episode!
That was an unexpected pair! Hisako & Souma! and on the other side polar opposite attitude pair Megumi & Erina! hahaha!
LOL! at first that Mitamura glare from those 2 was a bit looking down on them for a bit but it was a troll and he just want autograph signed by the two!
Hisako is always getting down depressed when Souma mentions Erina's name!
wave per wave of customers were hilarious!
Erina being a perfectionist is indeed awesome! but being perfect is not always the solution, I'm sure there are others like Souma, Hayama, Shinomiya & Eizan who doesn't need perfection in order to be a match to Erina.
Every time Erina hears the name Souma, she's instantly infuriated! LOLZ!
LOL even Erina is feeling down because of Hisako.
5/5!

Dang that was a good episode! Nice to see the interactions between Souma and Hisako :O Looks like they've both just been chasing after someone this whole time huh ... cool to see how they "made their mark" :O Seeing Erina and Megumi work together was pretty funny too XD Maybe they could become friends too?! I mean especially after Erina's compliment in the car :P IDK if I just never watched the ED but did they change the animation for that? Or was Hisako always lying in the flowers XD Either way looks like the next intern stop might be the Chef from last season! I forget his name though XD

lol.... all I can say is duhhhhh to Hisako. OBVIOUSLY you can't leave the restaurant as is because it's not as if you and Souma-kun will be carrying their asses the whole time. Something has to change or else they won't be able to function, yo. That's why you were put there.


It was quite nice for her to see the good side of Souma-kun at the end, though. Her and Erina definitely need to open up their damn eyes and recognize him. Same for the rest of the school >.> always talking mad shit D:<

Not sure how Erina completely taking over the restaurant/kitchen is going to help once she leaves again. Seems to me that was she did would actually hurt the restaurant.

Glad to see more of Arato + her character development in part thanks to Souma encouraging her to not give up and walk by Nakiri side instead of walking behind her... this episode is the one that I been waiting to see... in terms of seen Hisako & Erina interact with other people aside from themselves, with that I as a viewers can learn more about them and be a little bit more condescended/understand their attitude towards others classmate and peers like Souma for example...

Great episode. The stagiaire thing is really interesting and a good practice for all the Totsuki students. So Souma and Hisako were a team. I'm glad she got so much screentime this episde. Her first reaction when she saw Souma was priceless :D

I think both of them didn't expect to work the whole for this art of restaurante. I wasn't sure what's going on when all these people ran out. At first Hisako was really cautious towards Souma but after she saw how good Souma can handle the stress of the orders from the customers + cooking at the same time she understood that he's not such a bad guy.

And Souma was right about that the restaurante has to change. It's impossible without enough assistants to manage this inrush of customers every day. We couldn't see the menu but to reduce it is also a good idea.

Erina and Megumi were another team in an it seemed more genteel restaurante. Erina of course had a lot of things to critisize and after a short time it looked like it was her own restaurante xD
Poor chef. Nice that also Megumi saw something which could help the restaurante of getting better even if it's just a small thing.

It's cool to see the developement of different character with each other. Also to hear more about why Hisako left Erina and why she don't want to go back.
Souma cheered her up to look forward. With giving Hisako the mangas Erina wanted he gave her the best possibility to go back to Erina. Her "Arigatou" was so cute :)

And in the limousine you could see that also Erina is missing Hisako so much.

Next episode we will see the magician again. I see were this is going.

I was just wondering why Erina was paired with Megumi in the OP at the start of this episode. And I guess we'll find out next episode why Shinomiya is prominent in the OP also.

I was so excited that Sōma was going to be pairing with Erina, but was disappointed when it was revealed to be Hisako. But I think it actually turned out for the better! I didn't really care too much for her character before this episode, but this was a great episode for her development. And that smile at the end was great 😊

Hisako's rating went up. Her smile in the end was adorable. She looked good with her glasses. One extra member into the harem.

Souma little talk to Hisako was great.

Erina just took over the restaurant.

This was the best episode of the season, as far as I'm concerned. Finally an episode where the characters get to breathe, instead of endlessly rambling expositions throughout the episode. All those tournament episodes get pretty tiring to listen after a while.

Their internship turned out to be a mini-Kitchen Nightmares episode than the traditional way things go and I loved it. The Totsuki students have already proven themselves to be top-tier in what they do so simply doing a good job there wouldn't be as amusing to watch as having them improve the restaurants they interned at for the long term. Souma helped Hisako realize that she has the capacity to do great things on her own if she just stopped forcing herself to stay complacent at second place so she'll really start to become closer and worthier of being alongside her friend and master. It'd be great if they both reveal what's in their minds soon since it would've been a lot easier if they just talked about their issues from the looks of it. That beautiful smile of hers gave her a very powerful entrance in Souma's secret harem, that's for sure.

Megumi managed to help out very nicely and even got praised by Erina of all people! Souma realized more things about himself and he'll definitely face another monumental challenge with Shinomiya being back in town.

I thought the series was going to decline since in another arc, where it was held outside of school (not the Training arc), I got completely bored but this arc promises better things.

Probably, my favourite scene was Erina interaction with Megumi.
