So it's over :/ I was expecting to see in the end a "new season confirmed"...
It was an another great season.
I don't have much to say since i said everything in the past episodes but i am glad that Souma managed to create something new and unique that could be in Shinomiya's restaurant.
Can't believe it's over... Hope i won't need to wait long for a new season xD
Until then i think the best i can do is starting reading the manga.
10/10, one of the best animes i've seen.

It ended well. Admittedly I felt the season was too quick and they didn't capture Soma's change in apperance after the staigaire well, but it was fine.

Not as good as the first season, but was damn good.

It was an enjoyable season, but compared to the first one, this one came across as lackluster in the end. At this point in the manga its hard to determine where they would and could end it following the Autumn tournament without overextending the series, but at the same time the final episode left me asking "is that it?" Whereas the first season had me satisfied, despite leaving a cliffhanger. So enjoyable, but altogether too short.

I'm disappointed that they didn't properly show Soma's growth. And I wait a long time for it too....

Overall, it was an okay season. Not as good as the first season since some parts were really rushed and they left out a lot of details in between.

Can't wait for a season three, although it felt kind of fast it makes sense as its only thirteen episodes. Compared to the manga they didn't show the random fodder failing the stagiaire so it made it kinda seem less difficult even though its a given that the main characters would make it through.

The picked the perfect timing (Chapter 117) on which to end the season. This feels way more conclusive and is great for anime watchers. I hope we get another season but in any case, thie Stagiaire Arc was a big step-up from the Autumn Elections one and was thoroughly enjoyable. Overall, a solid 8.5/10. Well done!

Ending was slightly underwhelming as was most of the season maybe im just biased because i loved the first season. Anyhow the season was an 8/10 for me.

Did anyone else think it looked like soma was going into the Avatar state when he said he was overcoming his old self lol

Wonderful episode. Nice to see Hinako, Mizuhara & the rest from the Training Camp Arc.
Shinomiya's like a different person when his Mom is around.
Souma's transformation was cool to see. The New Yukihira is here.

Nice Unlimited Cutlery Works.
Congrats Souma for getting his dish on the menu & Shinomiya providing help to make it even better.
LOL Mizuhara knocking out Hinako to shut her up from revealing that unannounced Shokugeki.

Now to aim for the First Seat of the Elite 10. Shinomiya is expected great things from Souma.
Congrats to everyone on passing the Stagiaire.
Takumi at a Maid Cafe with Urara. He seems really into it.

Souma ready to Shokugeki with anyone. The challenges are endless.
Wonderful end card.

Overall another enjoyable season. Not as amazing as Season 01, but still a lot of fun to watch & see Souma as well as the other characters develop & grow their cooking style.

Thanks J.C Staff & everyone involved for all the hard work.

Sad to see it go, but hopefully they announce a Season 03 as I would love to see a “certain group” of people make their appearance.

This gets a 9/10.

That amazing relaxing vibe while watching credits go..
Enjoyed the structure of the season that they left Stagiaire for the final episodes after all the immense Election cooking battles.

In the ending cutscene during Soma's shokugeki why didn't I see any Orange , purple , blue haired characters besides that girl Hojo we've seen in previous season :) ?

Just another 3 months passed fast and Thank you everyone who contributed to the making of the series.

For some reason, I actually enjoyed this season a bit more than the first season somehow. Season 3 when?

9/10.

It certainly felt rushed in some parts, but i'm glad it wasn't stretched to 24 episodes. Would be boring as hell. I give 5/10 to the kinda boring and mostly predictable elections arc, and 8/10 to the short and sweet stagiaire arc, i'm glad Shokugeki no Souma is back on the right track.

I mean normally they would give that when its the end of that anime .


but they gave 'glad you liked' at the end of season 1 as well, so i think its not related to the end of the anime.

I liked it more than the 1st season. I think people dont consider it was half the length of it.
Was Soumas evolution sequence some kind of reference?

Great finale to the Stagiare Arc. It was awesome seeing Souma persevere and make such a yummy looking dish. Though I'm really sad this show's over. Season 1 definitely had better pacing, but this season was just fine. Off to the manga!

All in all, I'm very glad I decided to give Shokugeki no Souma a try back in June. It was so worth it to marathon the first season and watch this season as it aired. Honestly, I can say that Shokugeki no Souma has probably become one of my favorite shounens. This right here is a shounen done right!

Should've made it a 2-cour. Felt rushed, but eh...

It was entertaining, though I hate how overly-shounen it felt, just like the first season. Above average nonetheless.

Shinomiya and his little student Yukihira were cute.

6.5/10

This. Overly-shounen as hell, could have lived without its ecchi as well. Characters are extremely pathetic and annoying as well imo, dragging down the series even more. There are exceptions like, for example Yukihira though.. Other than that - great.

Thank god this show is over and put out of it's misery. No story, no character development. It was a series of cooking duels followed by a couple episodes of "restaurant rescue" only it had as much to do with actual cooking as dodging bullets, jumping 50 feet in the air and shooting lasers out of your eyes has to do with a karate tournament.

Check out the second season of Chef's Table. In one episode you'll get more story and character than this entire series, you'll see real Michelin star kitchens and food that is best in the world. But no one's cloths will explode off of them, and no huge breasted high school girls. Which is probably really why you watched this garbage.

I enjoyed this season, although I preferred the first season, during the tournament arc it focused a lot more on the battles so the Stageire or whatever arc was a nice change of pace. But it was still enjoyable to see the battles and Souma growing :D Hoping for a third season!

This season felt way too rushed and had a lot of pacing issues. I haven't read the source and I am not the sharpest tool in the shed, but even I could tell where things were likely cut or compressed. Still it felt like SnS, so I am not all that disappointed. I feel like the main points got across, even if they were poorly executed or paced at times.

I'll be looking forward to the next season.

No more sns after. Been watching sns since this year's Raya. and today , watched the finale.
It has been a very entertaining show. Reminds of knb , some says that the mangaka accumulating
10 years worth knowledge of basketball to create such masterpiece ,I think the same goes to
sns author too , to create this amazing story , the author must have had accumulated huge amount
of knowledge in cooking and dishes.

Really like the main character Souma and his interaction with other characters. Its like , this is
my first time watching non-stupid idiot weak-like main character starring a show. I can see he's
harnessing/practising/studying a LOT to become a professional chef. Must be really good I can do the
same thing in engineering to become a professional engineer. I just don't have the spirit. haha
I will develop it though.

anyway , 10/10. I personally fond of this anime.
Next season goin to be next or next next year , idk. i can always read the manga , haha.

Inferior to S1 as it's been said a dozen times over. Doesn't mean it wasn't good and doesn't necessarily detract from the series as a whole. But, the one cour outline and the resulting rapid fire pace really took away from what made S1 so charming and captivating at times. As result, season 1 was a 8-9 and this was an easy 7. Look forward to more and hope they don't chisel away at it the next time.

Souma's dish was delicious but I agree with Shinomiya that it was too low quality, especially the poached egg on the side, it made the dish look meh.

Apart from the apparent pacing issues of this rush job, I guess they did as good of a job as they could. The way they ended things seriously gave the vibe that they were indifferent to whether they came out with a season 3 though.

They did what they could given that their might be some budget so far within JC staff as to why they weren't able to replicate the first season 24-episode margin.

It was rushed, yes, but it covered the entire Autumn Election arc only missing a few scenes from the manga itself. In the Stagiaire Arc however, the reason why some characters were given fillers (Hayama, Nakiri Alice) was to give flavor as to the manga didn't reveal where they were sent. Some were limited to just peeks as to covering an entire arc within 3 - 24-minute episodes is a monumental task to do, thereby limiting the Stagiaire Arc to focus more on Soma's own cooking style evolution.

I have to give this season 2 a 9/10. Superb nonetheless. Once again, anime moms are best moms (Kojiro's soft side for mom) and Inui Hinako stealing the spotlight.

P.S. I hope they would animate L'Etoile to see more of Hinako X Shinomiya moments.

Soma has to come up with a french dish completely on his own. He has perfectly copied a few dishes before, but here he has to come up with a brand new recipe. And as expected, he makes one which combines french and japanese cooking. It ends up being not good enough, but Shinomiya teaches Soma a thing or two about how to further improve the dish. And in the end, the dish finds its way to the menu. The purpose of the stagiare has been told to be a test to see which students get something out of the pros. The students have to learn something from the pros and then leave a mark of their own in a professional setup. Soma is now using different cooking styles and combining them into his own cooking. He's learning stuff from everyone and is incorporating them into his own dishes.
Lol Takumi in a maid café was awesome.

This season was quite good. It was a bit fast paced, but I didn't really mind it much. The autumn elections were quite intense and this stagiare was cool too. We got some further development for Soma, some Hisako time, some back story on the relationship between Ryo and Alice, and some good cooking battles. Pretty solid season just like its prequel.
