Preliminary (23/325 chp)
Shokugeki no Souma is a story about a mainstream boy who is trying to get through the toughest and most famous cooking school in Japan. Yukihira Souma has a dream of becoming a professional chef and surpass his father at cooking.

Story -10: Right now, the story is amazing. I've literally fell in love with this. It's no doubt one of the most unique and groundbreaking mangas I've read before. It mixes in lots of comedy, adventure, drama, school life, and even a little romance just do finish the cake! The story really reminds me of Prince of Tennis, Naruto, and Iron Chef all in one. It's really a great story.

Art - 9: Artwork looks great. Very nice and clean look to it. Serious and playful at the same time. Great mixture!!

Characters - 10: These characters are magnificent. They're loving and challenging. Souma is relaxed, but serious when need be. He's strong, faithful to his friends, and loves everyone. Best of all, he never backs down from a challenge. These characters are excellent.

Enjoyment - 10: The novel is just great from the start. I'm thoroughly enjoying it so far and the new chapters are no exception to that. Outstanding performance so far!

Overall - 9: Even though I gave a lot of the previous criterion 10s, the story is still very new and doesn't have a lot of chapters yet. It is updating at a pretty good rate though. However for the time being, I'll keep it at a 9 since it's still young. If the manga continues just as it is now and sticks to the story line, the will easily be a 10. I strongly recommend this to anyone who's looking for something to read. I know some people this is ecchi but so far, I haven't really seen a huge ecchi theme. Sometimes the characters get all flustered up eating the food and it is portrayed like sex, but really I think thats just humorous. Don't read this if you're just looking for a good ecchi theme book. It's not :|
