SO THEY PUT THE REVEALING AS A CLIFFHANGER.
finally, the scene I've been looking for.

still, the delivering in manga are more superior.

can't wait for 2nd cour in april.
I think they're going to the rooftop scene or train scene as an ending for next season since key visual show Souma in the snow.

Woah did not expect the ending. I thought the ED song was more like a transitional to the 2nd half of the season since I expected 24 eps but next thing i know the show ended.

Tsukasa's dish was so vivid in color, Soma's looked good as well.
But that reveal at the end, if only they had spent a bit more on that tbh. Overall I liked this season so an 8/10.

Why did Soma believe he could beat the first seat with a dish that simplistic? I'm sure it was good, but he should have known it wasn't going to be enough.

What a way to end the season.
I was a bit mad when they omit it after Eizen fight but this timing work well with the anime though i wanted to see Erina being tormented by the revelation xD

Yup, I could say about this final episode... It's particularly pretty much the "same" way Souma battle, lose, and the cause against Shinomiya in the previous episode. But different things comes after that.

I hope Hisako confess to Soma already, lol.

And i thought that we would have 24 episodes straight, at least we will have to wait 5 months, which is not bad at all.
It was quite obvious that Souma would lose, but still, it was an entertaining battle xD

You simply can't end a season like this and tell us to wait until April...
So many revelations, but it was probably the best way to end the season.

Erina now knows that Jouichirou is the father of Souma, the face she made when she found out xD Will be interesting to see how she will change after knowing this information. Also a very interesting reaction from Erina's father.

Another great season and can't wait for the next one, because it promises a lot! For me, this is one of those animes that should just keep going until it ends xD Even though that this ending felt kinda unexpected and fast, i still enjoyed it.

Well that was predictable, when Souma served his dish first its obvious he'll lose and it's really too early, if he'd beat him now that would be a plot armor

S1 > S3 > S2

For those complaining about the omitted reaction from Erina, they might be reserving it for the next cour's episode 1, actually. It would lead in well to the third Egg-themed dish scene.

Overall, the season was a disappointing adaptation. The School Festival arc was adapted poorly because of pacing (too fast), just like the Autumn Election Finals arc. Soma vs Kuga was far more intense in the manga, and made Rindou's commentary about the "two sore losers" really memorable. Hayama and Alice's bickering about their stand was also much funnier, but I think the anime-watchers hardly remember it without mention.

The Central arc was definitely lame even in the manga, but I think they adapted the key Shokugekis fairly well, although I personally did not like Soma vs Eizan's match that much because of how they just skimmed through their cooking and focused on Soma's burns and Eizan's reaction to them instead.

Yooooo what on earth was with that JoJo-style ending???!!

I honestly feel as if the decision to split the cour into 2 parts was rushed; this episode and the last was quite strangely paced.

YES! YES! YES! YES! Now they know! God dammit I'm so glad it finally happened. Good episode. Battle vs Tsukasa went pretty much how everyone expected it to. Wish they capitalized on the potential humor for Azami's creepy ass face in the door way. Azami obviously has a crush on his senpai. Can't wait til next cour!

So they did change the sequence of events. Erina finally knows the truth now.

Personally, I thought this was a pretty weak season but I don't think it deserves a lower rating than the previous season.

Finally, kind of expecting that They'll show the Big Revelation in the End of the series... But I'm glad They actually Nailed It! Though I'm kind of disappointed They didn't show the Original Reactions of Erina from the manga, They're priceless lol...

Can't wait for the Promotion Exams Arc in April 2018, and...



As a manga reader, I would say 9/10 Overall for this series... Better than S2, but still not as good as S1.

YESSSSSS You have no idea how good that reveal felt, wait maybe you do ^_^'

I want to scream at the top of my lungs ^_^

Also the shokugeki felt like a bit of a cop out but I suppose it had to play out that way ^_^'

Better get that season 4 soon, I want to see Nakimi's reaction properly >.<.

That plot twist! He's doing all of it for the sake of Souma's father. I enjoyed the whole thing but not as much compared to first and second season. Maybe it's because of the lack of major cook-offs(only 3) and foodgasms. Autumn Election is the best arc for me so maybe it's not fair to compare them. Trailer for 4th season looks hype. I hope the show goes back to its best form. Now we all wait.

So like, in a way, I like that Azami's a catalyst that seems to push forward a relationship development between Souma & Erina, I'm not a big fan of the execution of it all. His,"muh senpai was ruined" reasons leave something to be desired. And when you think about it, if we're going in that direction of Souma x Erina, Erina could've been shown developing more natural feelings of appreciation & respect for him as she'd watch & taste his cooking. While I find this ship spicy, I can't help but say that Megumi's relationship with Souma has been way more natural and would be a good waifu.

That aside, other aspects of this season were lacking compared to previous ones as others have pointed out many times before. The opponents or well, antagonists in this case ain't given much time, like those random folks at central ~ they pop out a bit, most win, some get defeated and that's that. Who the fck are they? More details pls? No? Okay.

Then there's the foodgasms themselves ~ just look at the ones in the 1st season and even the 2nd, and compare em to these. These are just "characters clothes rip around em in tiny pieces", that's it. No more innuendos or hilariously creative "wtf Japan?" moments regarding foodgasms, which I think is pretty important, seeing as a lot of people probably got into this anime & manga using those as their initial attraction, even if they stuck around for other things.

I gave the previous seasons both 9/10, but 7/10 for this and it's probably generous compared to what other fans gave it ~ and their disappointed is legit, altho maybe a bit exaggerated at times. Props to Draconix814 for that "the SAO escalation problem btw ,etc" thread, t'was a great read :D

Read the manga chapters 150 and 151. The reactions are priceless.

Haha truly hilarious indeed, but why didn't they do this earlier because in chapter 151 you can also see that Satoshi Isshiki got fired as an elite 10 seat while this happened episodes ago in the anime.

I honestly didn't feel anything this season unlike last season which made me a bit tary eyed. I used to care last season but it seems like I don't even care anymore even though there's a lot happening in totsuki this season, it feels like the tension isn't there. Overall a downgrade of the past 2 seasons 6/10

After watching all episodes Azami's and Team Central's goal is similar to Team Flare from Pokemon. Both team leaders want to eliminate everything that is considered "ugly" to them. In Azami's case, he wants to eliminate all restaurants that are not worthy. The only thing is that if all of the characters from Team Central were in Pokemon then it will take much longer to beat them. Central has about 8 elite members (Since Erina and Isshiki are not direct Central members), some members having subordinates.
Overall, great season. Food Wars managed to deliver a lot of emotions this season. I can't wait for the next season.

Honestly, this was the worst of the seasons. We keep ramping up to good stuff but the execution is either weak or being in the transition phase is causing this underwhelming feeling.

This series has steadily dropped it's entertainment factor each season. S1 is great, S2 is good, and S3 is very so-so. Maybe it's the 1-cour constraint or, again, maybe it's just the story transition phase.

In any case, I always enjoy watching this each week but it was not stellar. The lack of excitement and tension which drew all of us in season 1 I personally feel was absent this whole season.
