Raichi_ said: Really? I was looking forward to his performance but was very disappointed. Maybe because I was expecting a mix between Mistsuhide and Ayanami. That may be the case, you should give him another chance,tho,was also slightly disappointed by Rindous Seiyuu at first,but then I got used to her.Could be the same here. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| And with this episode they have caught again my attention 100% |
Pizzagun said: FMmatron said: @Pizzagun Imo it didn't drop in quality at all, it was about time that a real antagonist appears who would make things more dramatic. If anything I'm just not really fond of his radical ideology in regards to food,aside from that he's a good villain. Me, including the majority(Japanese too, just look at the reactions before the current arc, or even the rankings, sales) beg to differ at least, he is a totally shit villain who had no real consequences to the manga(until the end of very last arc but that too is a way out to get him out of the scene as people grew tired of him). Things getting dramatic doesn't make it automatically good, it depends on execution, giving tons of plot armors to mc and pals didn't help either. His ideology also has a lot of flaws and makes absolute zero sense if you think rationally but eh whatever. I love how he has the power to The start the anime where it goes down hill from here. I love how Azami is so intimidating for his first debut |
| So Erina's father is a vampire? lol |
| Of course they would have picked Sho Hayami to voice Erina's dad. That man has the greatest job security in Japan. |

| Really intense episode. It's too bad soma didn't beat the other guy in sales. Tsukasa is first seat for a reason, looks like his cooking his on a completely different level. I wonder if Soma disagrees with his ethic of taking himself out of the dish? Seems like Soma has always been taught to make a dish that's always has the Yukihira twist to it. Did not see that final part coming at all. Can't believe the Council of Ten decided that. I wonder how those who voted against it feel about it? Rindou is also super cute. |
| Did not expect an episode like this.... Erina's dad is one terrifying man already. Totsuki's future is looking bleak right now with this man as the new director. |
  |
| ~Lol that Natsu Dragneel style reaction after the 15th minute though XD *Azami reminds me of Vamdemon hahahahah* Interesting plot twist. I'm looking forward to watching this arc. |
| Omfg so much fucking happen!!!!! Azumi and BASICALLY A coup d’état!!!!!!! Nej$oxjnsjaojcnwnskxjdnwkaka WTTTTFFFF THIS IS SO GOOD OM READYYYY |

| the current totsuki is so mindlessly barbaric that you can get expelled for whatever reason, it's really hard for me to side with senzaemon-souma side lol. i'd definitely side with aizen for tootsuki reform. but azami is also extreme too since- see u next week. this aizen regime arc going to be good to pure shit and then to good again later in hopefully s4 erina is also overly dramatic this whole arc is annoying af |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| FINALLY, THIS ARC BEGINS! All manga readers have been waiting so long for this |
 |
| Thanks to VA for Azami it always remind me of that director in Ansatsu Kyoushitsu and voice is fitting evil role as well. I think it's a good pace so far hopefully they will catch up with manga. |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| CONFLICT!! Getting to the meat of things will hopefully help the pacing from here on out it definitely is showing off the animation better in the second half of the episode. Pretty obvious but seeing the progression of the Elite Ten and everyone's involvement to go back to the status quo will be very satisfying. Along with all the back history of the Nakiri's. Also noting that Tsukasa is quite interesting then I had imagined with him separating himself from his cooking. How odd. Can't wait to see the 6/10 reasoning for siding with the crazy that is Azami. FlamepriesT said: Most of the episode wasn't that interesting to me. That was an interesting turn of events towards the end though. I found Erina's reaction intriguing. A couple of thoughts: * While I like the fact they shook things up, the fact that the top 10 students hold that much power is kind of ridiculous. I'm not particularly bothered by it or think it's a big deal, but the story definitely failed to foreshadow it properly. They had mentioned it a bit in passing in the last 2 seasons but you really didn't understand the weight of those decisions until NOW. |
 |
| Guys, I don't think I can wait a week for more. Can someone let me know where to continue from in the manga? |
| The absolute madness! |
 |
| Just as I forgot how frightening Azami is, the anime covers it, and let me tell you, Erina wasn't the only one shivering. The worst part is, we still didn't get the creepiest Azami :creep: |

 |
| Ah yes, Erina's daddy issues arc begins at last. Gonna be fun seeing how the proud, high and mighty Erina is brought down to being a mindbroken little girl. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| wow, Erina's father is really creepy in a really cool way! this was probably my favorite episode so far of this season, I love his intimidation! |
| I had almost forgotten how idiotic the premise of the next few arcs was. Who in their right mind let's fucking teenagers have any say in the management of a goddamn school? I don't care how gifted in cooking they are, it's fucking insane! |

ReguIus said: It's kinda crazy how the vote of 6 students (yes, part of the elite 10... but still kids ffs) can take down the director without any sort of vote from the rest of the students. Just thinking about that is crazy since the rest of the students are kinda fucked if Azami reforms the school Well it's basically like the US's Congress. They don't need the population's consent. That goes for most "democracies." |

| I have to admit that the twist at the end of 6/10 voting for reform sent a chill down my spine. |

They had mentioned it a bit in passing in the last 2 seasons but you really didn't understand the weight of those decisions until NOW. Everybody knows those 10 students get very special treatment. But the fact they can pull off something like this could have been casually foreshadowed without making it blatant. Erina's grandfather could have talked about the beliefs that make him think students should hold that much power. That would have made the twist a lot more believable. Erina's father is also a topic that never came up until this episode. What I'm trying to say is that it doesn't seem like the author had planned this. He may very well have come up with this on the go. Both topics are very easy to foreshadow. Don't get me wrong, this is nothing outrageous. It's just that he could have done a better job, which is something I always point out when I see. As someone who's interested in writing, I'm very critical of anything I watch. |
FlamepriesTOct 31, 2017 6:05 PM
| that was wild was like who is this overly villainess mofo and it's her father!,didn't expect the reform but what does it mean , pure anarchy ? i can't even say is this the part where SnS gets overly shonen but it's always been that way from the start lol |
 |
| So Aizen appears in SnS, reveals himself as Erina's daddy and shits gets real. Cannot wait to see what path the series will take from this point. The members of the elite 10 having that much powers sounds a bit ridiculous, but, well, this is a shounen after all, so anything to say to that regard. Well, Rindou-senpai is waifu tier, and with how few she has appeared, she looks like best girl material for sure. |

Well they did it make it blatant, It's said that the E10 are given authority and privileges. We just didn't know the extent of their authority. These aren't just some regular high school kids, they are cream of the crop geniuses who made it through Totsuki's harsh system that weeds out the weak, making in Totsuki to that extent already puts them ahead of other adult chefs, they hold more knowledge and experience than other chef because of the privileges being in the Elite ten offers (such as rare ingredients, rare recipes, funds for culinary ventures etc)  |

| The entire premise of a couple of students being able to choose a director is so stupid, and the guy they chose is almost a parody of a villain, but I can't say I didn't enjoy myself. |
 |
| Holy shit. I just come here for my weekly food porn; definitely was not expecting that shit to get so intense that fast; 8 minutes of solid suspense on the edge. |
~my list
| Very tense episode, Erina's father Azami Nakiri makes his appearance. I really liked his antagonistic attitude, it will play a major role for Erina as well. The fact she gets frozen by just looking at him it's a clear sign that this guy has to be very vicious. A reform is coming, a stormy one :O |
THANKS SENPIEX  |
| Fuck, if only I had top tier video editing skills, I would Bleach the fuck out of the final few minutes. Dammit! |

GangsterCat said: the current totsuki is so mindlessly barbaric that you can get expelled for whatever reason, it's really hard for me to side with senzaemon-souma side lol. Exactly. The expulsions for dumb reasons at the start was one of the main reasons I thought this anime would be bullshit. This one dude got expelled for wearing cologne, he didn't even get like a warning to not do it again, just on the spot expulsion. |

Well they did it make it blatant, It's said that the E10 are given authority and privileges. We just didn't know the extent of their authority. That's just a statement, not proper foreshadowing. And when I said "not blatant", I meant they could have made it clear that the elite 10 are basically the ultimate authority there (even above the director) while not making the actual twist obvious. All it takes is a situation where the focus is elsewhere and a brief comment that seems to fit it. For instance, let's go back to the situation where Souma challenged his teacher to save Megumi from getting expelled. The focus is 100% on saving Megumi. If it had been one of the elite 10 rather than a teacher, someone could have easily mentioned it was crazy to mess with that person because of how much power they had and give an example. Then it goes something like this - "Their consensus is as good as a verdict around here. It surpasses literally everyone's authority." Then add a line such as "if you were to get on their bad side, not even the director would be able to save you!" or "even the director himself would have issues if he were to get on their base side". Or maybe give an example of a moment their consensus changed something the director himself had decided. Souma shows surprise (or makes a joke about it), but refuses to back off as usual. There, done. Of course, things wouldn't be exactly like this. But if you know where the story is going, proper foreshadowing is that simple. |

| Holy shit, Totsuki Civil War |
| Hi there |
| This episode was so intense. I haven't read the manga very far in so I don't know what's going to be in the rest of this arc but this episode by far is my favorite so far in this season. I'm wondering why those 6 made that decision. They didn't seem like people that believed in Azami's absolute Totsuki idealism. I wonder if there are going to be a series of shokugeki now. It's the rest of the student body vs. 6 of the elite 10 plus Azami, that's got to be a challenge. |
| I've seen a fuckton of anime with high school setting and an overwhelming majority of them always has a student council with ridiculous power but now 6 out of the 10 voted for the changing of their school director. This is some high level bullshittery right here. And they chose someone that was banned from the school lol might as well pick a school janitor. |
 |
| Holy shit!!! Was already spoiled for what was about to happen but still hit the ceiling... Top 10 anime betrayals material right here O_o Also Rindou was suuuper cute with her short hair (will need to hear their reasons for the betrayal before jumping on that hate train). It's ironic how Azami relies on the power of the elite 10 despite whilst looking down upon Souma, the son of a 2nd seat. 10/10 episode, so much drama in this series compared to s2. |
  ~ |
| So, Erina's father is a complete dick? What a surprise. But, at least it looks like there are going to be some interesting challenges this season. Loved it when Soma wandered in, completely oblivious to the tense atmosphere, just prattling on as always and relying on his charm to get a table. Was nice to see the relief on Erina's face when she saw him. |
 |
| I am not sure that the anime will get into the back story of what happened to Erina's father. if I had to guess Which I will ( have not read the manga so this is speculation). my guess would be that the second seat Soma's father and Erina's father had it out somehow. That is why Soma's father can still hold the title of second seat even though he did not graduate. Erina's grand father rewarded Joichiro for ousting Azami somehow. But that is just a guess. |

 |
| I have to agree that Azami's arrival into the series was probably a gimmick the mangakas spontaneously came up with to drive the story forward. There were definitely better ways they could have pulled off the coup d'etat instead of majority voting by the student council. Given their "cooking is everything here" policy, they probably should have gone with a Shokugeki between Azami and Senzaemon (ala Akainu vs Aokiji style), and plot armoured Azami to victory. But y'know what? This series is so much fun to read, I will suspend all that criticism about its writing and just keep enjoying. Can't wait for Soma's subsequent battles with the Council of Ten. |
