----------------------------------------
Oh hell yes, the foodgasm is back in full force. It was just a matter of time. Souma's dishes never ceases to amaze me.

This episode got me into the mood with the entertaining dialogues and the characters. I really love the humor of this show. Also, Elite 10's Rindou finally got some lines! About time.

Haha, Nao in a nutshell..

everything is a little bit different between anime and manga, example : I can see Isshiki's group activity in day 1. then soma is giving her home key to ** in school, but in manga he give it to him in PSD etc.
okay, this episode's main show is ....of course, naoxsoma xD

rate : 9/10

I wonder who the person was that Soma gave that key too =o Either way, things went pretty much how I expected for him but it looks like the comeback might be on now (Same for Hayama's team as well) so I'm looking forward to see what happens next

But that post credits scene tho =/

Great episode as always.

Expected Soma to face a lot of loss but it's always great seeing him bounce back with his own improvised solutions like the noodle dish.

Wonder who that guy Soma was talking to is.

I love Alice's pouts.

That ending. xD

As a reader of the manga i can't tell anything except awesome ep

it's a bit different form the manga though in some scenes but still great

loved the new ending .. i love the singer and all her songs (hope to know her name :D)

i think this arc will continue for two more episodes and then the real anime/story will begin and no one will blink his eyes :D :D

Great episode. Lmao'd at some of the Nao and Souma moments as they discuss their creations. Was nice to see everyone's hard work at the Moon Festival and Kuga is clearly someone to not be taken lightly. Souma knows this and decides he needs to improvise more if he doesn't want to end up losing money.

Very excited for next weeks episode.

That would be awsome but i dont think we will go that far, not in s3 at least, i think the final of this season will be the bear meat battle.(Idk how to make those spoiler thingis) if the show is 24+ Episodes like some roumurs have said.

Nao is getting a surprising amount of customers to her stall, despite the fact that her dishes kick up a big smell. She and Soma now have an understanding for each other when it comes to grotesque cooking. XD

The pacing was pretty solid for this episode, going through the first two days of the festival, with Yukihira's stall now starting to get back into the profit margin. Alice's group, on the other hand, is in an amusing mess, but it does look like they'll get their act together. Also, Alice's pouting faces are super cute. =3

They ended the episode on a cliffhanger, so we'll find out who has opened up the Yukihira Diner next time. I'm sure certain users know who the person is, but to those who don't know yet, I'm sure you'll be amused when they show the person's identity. =)

Overall, this was a great episode. =)

Souma struggled as expected, but it was good to see him bounce back on the 2nd day with the help of that new menu item. He seems to have another trick up his sleeve so it should be cool to see what it is.

Also I'm interested in seeing the mystery person that Souma was talking to. I have a guess for who it might have been but who knows if it's even correct.

Souma moving around to the customers at night after the festival is done is pretty crafty.

Sadatsuka is on the same wavelength as Souma, that's fun to watch XDD

I wonder what Souma is trying to do, the reactions at the end make me think that he's trying to do something with Sadatsuka together (the violet light).

Pretty fun episode.
The rapport between Hayama, Alice and Ryo is especially funny.

However, I have a little bit of a concern with the way this series is proceeding and that's because it seems like the plot is becoming formulaic... It's like the same thing happens, always. Souma faces insurmountable challenge, Souma takes it head on and gets beaten up for a while, Souma comes up with a plan, souma somehow wins. They need to up the stakes and make it feel more personal, like in the first season, it was all about Souma trying to prove that he belonged among all the elites of the food world. They need something like that.

Souma is one of those characters who is always stomped badly at the beginning but over time he ends surprising his opponent xD He clearly has a plan to overcome the situation, which might be useful or not, but I'm kind of worried for Megumi :C

And now that I saw this pic from above, this scene felt really ironic xD

Character interaction was so ace.

Soma and Nao being disgusting along with the trio of Alice, Ryo, and Hayama. Just a good time with everyone even the real minor characters.

Pacing is much better this time, not as fast but probably because it was tackling one problem throughout the entirety of this one.

But Soma is proactive in his story. The reason it works is because he dives into this challenge all on his own and he isn't along for the ride. And I wouldn't say he just wins just because. The people that help him and the inspiration he finds varies every time these type of problems come up. It'll have more stake once he has something to lose but he doesn't at the moment and doesn't need to prove himself at this point in the story.

yeah im enjoying this seaosn way more than the past one cause of this, the 2nd season felt like it was gunning for the end as quick as possible causing everything to kind of lose the easy watch i found the first season to be. I just feel relaxed watching episodes from this season.

Yeah, the Staggiere arc in particular felt incredibly rushed and it kind of carried over to the first two episodes this season but if the rest of the show is like this episode then it'll all be great.

Pretty good episode, honestly better than the other two episodes imo (I elaborate more in my vid)

Lots of set up as a discovery/set-up episode, some good comedy (and comic relief), a strong conflict to overcome, Soma learning things (as per literally always), etc. I liked it :D

My review episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osErxNLFUqI

PS: Nao made the night scene so good lol; honestly the comedy of this episode was pretty well done and tasteful - also, Rindou is closing in!!!

Yeah i know, they won't adapt these many chapters in this season. But on the other hand it's good that they are going at a good pace cz i don't want anime to rush things. And for BBCode (spoiler tags and all) help you can go here.

Just realized that there are huge references to Bleach in this series. OPs/EDs style, Yukihara & Ichigo who share a lot of similarities, and also their face off against the Elite 10 & Shinigami captains.

Lol @ Subaru, we see you buddy. The pacing towards the 2nd half of the episode was kind of weird, I felt like it dragged on for a little too long and didn't really add to the suspense of what Souma is planning on doing.

1st half on the other hand was hilarious - especially with the still-scene with all the "Main Tournament Finalist - Lost Moneys'" lmao. Also really enjoyed Souma + Nao's interaction which plays back on the squid meme.
