I’ve been saying this since season 1 and now we’re finally seeing the fruits of our labor...

Erina’s Dere transformation has begun and she’s beginning to accept Soma.

I have high hopes that this amazing series can finally give us a best girl win.

Than you Tosh-Sama for Erina!!!

It will be hard to earn enough positive points to neutralize the negative points she gained over the last seasons though. I really can't see her getting best Souma girl for me at the very least.

You see, that's the point. She used to be a bitch and she starts to slowly realize it. That's kinda the idea of her character. Her bad attitude is the influence of her father,
So for people that hate arrogance, she is the best girl

I haven't even watched season 3 so it would be nice if you could put what you said about season 4 in a spoiler tag. Aside from that I don't understand how Erina could become best girl because she changes from bad to good if we have girls who were just always good.

I haven't even watched season 3 so it would be nice if you could put what you said about season 4 in a spoiler tag. Aside from that I don't understand how Erina could become best girl because she changes from bad to good if we have girls who were just always good.


Fuck, sorry about the spoiler. It's minor anyway, it's one of those things that you know for sure will happen but it is just interesting how they will. But I'm sorry for spoiling that anyway, didn't intend to.

About what you said though, anime girls are not real people, they are characters. That means they represent an idea. So called good girls are just representing an idea of having a trustworthy soulmate by your side which is heartwarming.

Erina though represents quite a few things, mostly the road to acceptance of the fact that:

  1. Art (foodmaking in this case) is not something exquisite to be arrogant about being part of (like people think of reading books), but a thing that is enjoyable to create and consume by all types of people.
  2. Being oneself, following one's own dreams and unique style is superior to following the rules, trying to be someone parents or society wants one to be. Because nothing matters unless it's fun.
  3. She's also the idea of something to conquer, a goal for Souma to achieve (make her say the meal tastes good in this case), which motivates him even better, just as Souma's father said in the very beginning.

This is what makes her character relatable and interesting. There is Megumi, who represents struggle to become independent and Nikumi who is just an empty piece of fanservice (which i'm totally fine with btw). But noone in the show is as deep as Erina - the best girl.

Well, maybe there will be more to development of the other girls in the future, who knows (maybe manga readers do). But for now, Erina is top 1. The latest events in the show totally bring it to a whole new level, giving it multiple things that it lacked. And I believe Erina will play the key role in the current arc.


All of the above is my subjective opinion though.

Well no problem since it is just a minor spoiler :3

I guess our definition of good girl differs then, to me it's the most likable girl in that show. Not necessarily a trustworthy soulmate, I wouldn't trust Kurumi from Date a Live but she was still best girl imo.

I feel like cooking is everyone's passion in this show and not unique to Erina. I have to admit that I don't really get your 2nd point since Erina is quite keen on following the rules imo. Also everyone above Souma is someone for him to conquer, so that's not exclusive to Erina either. You could say the same about Rindou.

And this might be an unpopular opinion, but just because someone is deep doesn't mean I'll like her or him. The character is almost all that matters and Erina fails mostly in that aspect for me anyway.

As you said everything is subjective which means that saying one character that best-in-anything for everyone cannot exist. I like enjoy arguing about this though ^^

It's shounen. So the odds of that are pretty low, and I really can not see why you would drop it based on what COULD happen, and not what actually has. I mean, I still think your hate for tsunderes is irrational, but at least confirm your suspicions instead of bailing out immediately.

About my 2nd point that you didn't understand. She's kinda a shounen character on a positive side of the cast whose life views contradict with MC's, but MC's are obviously correct, so... Talking about a character with someone who is yet to catch up with the series kinda limits me a lot, so I won't say anything further because of spoilers. It's btw very clear what will happen at this point because of my bullshit mYsTerIoUs fucking way of speaking :))
Anyway,

Also I think that "best girl is the most likeable" is the same for everyone. It's what is considered likeable that differs.

As its Shounen there probably will be romance right at the end. Remember Soumas father indicated that cooking for someone you love is the ultimate goal. Erina is the end game pure and simple and you can already see how it will end.

I dont have a dick since I aint a guy. But Im sorry, I disagree. But Erina is not a bitch. Shes cute and nice at her own way. Try watch it fully. Please do not judge if you dont even finished the season 😉

i guess you need to catch up alot. There are many plot twist behind it. The answers are mostly on season 3!!

I just started watched this anime last 3 days. Its addicted so i watched all episodes all at once till the latest season this month. I wonder if i watched earlier 2-3yrs ago, only stop from the 1st series, i probably, still doesn't get the idea shes the best like yours 😝

Whether you like it or not both Megumis are the best girls. Both Tadokoro Megumi and Katou Megumi. Plain, simple, cute and innocent type girls are always the best. Girls like Erina are high maintenance even after they turn dere. You may enjoy spending a year with her. Maybe two years at best. But if it's someone like Megumi, we are talking about for the rest of your lives.

But since they are fictional characters, choose whoever you want. Ultimately you are picking them for Souma and not for yourselves.

I am yet to understand the hype over Rindou. Having only seen the anime, she is not even worthy of being in the radar of consideration.

Anyone that couldnt understand that Erina is the best girl, from the start of season 1 is clearly blinded and needs to go visit a doctor or something.
They seriously need to open their eyes, there sure are quite alot of good female cast on the series, but naming other than Erina as best girl, is a waste.
