The story and chapter is telling me it's gonna be Souma's save, but the true heroes are clearly Alice and Megumi. As always.

http://www.mangamint.com/shokugeki-no-soma-137 (actual link to new chapter) Alice is hilarious in this chapter, but I'm not a huge fan of the obvious whiplash just to get Erina's social circle integrated with the Dorm folk. I really, really hope Soma doesn't end up telling Erina, "I'm here to save you" or something because that would be cringeworthy as gently caress.

No, I just linked it and then made comments about the content, but I was just guessing what that actual content was. He clearly did not reject Senzeamon's request and making Erina say his cooking tastes good has nothing to do with saving her from her father. He's obviously saying he's going to agree to the request to save her; making her say his cooking is good is just his motivation for doing so.

Well it kind of does, since if Erina keeps going the way her father wants her to she probably wouldn't even eat anything he makes again. More to the point, I have enough faith in the writing by now that I assume Souma is going to do something neat instead of completely cliched. Probably spearhead an effort to get Asami to recognize the new generation's food as being acceptable?

Angry Grimace posted:http://www.mangamint.com/shokugeki-no-soma-137 Erina's social circle is much cooler than Erina herself so I am glad they will get to interact with other cool people. Also, this was a good chapter. I now feel better about this arc as a whole, even though I imagine Erina's going to end up captive by bad-dad again soon anyway.

This could have easily been like the Soul Society Arc from Bleach where the "damsel" just sits sadly in a room while everyone else tries to save her. Alice is a blessing.

It's clear the author doesn't want to make it a "Souma saves the day" thing. Sure, Souma will be the one to break her out of her toxic mentality (that's p much the entire point), but the others are in charge of stuff like, say, breaking her out. Which is cool. More shonens need to embrace the power of teamwork. (Ironically enough)

I'm just glad that in this chapter Senzaemon changed his wording to "Soma and his generation will save Erina". Rather than just Soma.

pentyne posted:Do you have context blindness or something? It's pretty obvious he's going to help her. Well, in context, "helping her" just means getting her to throw off her father's brainwashing, which means getting her to accept foods he wouldn't approve of. Which means that literally all he has to do is convince her that his food is good. I mean, yeah, he's gonna save her, but that's almost meaningless to him because that was his goal in the first place. In the framework of the story, saving Erina just means getting her into the group of friends.

I think Erina is correct to want to return to her mansion. Her father does not strike me as a very stable person, and he would probably do something awful in retaliation for this.

The Sandman posted:Also, unseating enough of the Elite Ten to vote Bad Dad out and somebody else in. Maybe Souma's dad, just to twist the knife? I don't think unseating her Dad is actually necessary to this. That would fall under "saving the school" instead. Erina can be saved while keeping Evil-Dad as an antagonistic headmaster. Ideally, she would end up confronting him herself.

If Bad Dad gets ousted then they'll probably just reinstate Nudist Grandpa

Azami versus the combined forces of the Polar Star Dorm and its allies would be a cool arc. Instead of the usual suspects (Souma, the Super Aldini Bros., Hayama, Nikumi, etc.) getting into cooking battles, we might get another chance to see the other Polar Star members shine like in the Autumn Tournament Qualifiers as well as including Fumio and Isshiki in the mix

loving loved that Alice actually watched some running away documentaries before attempting to run away with Erina. Also the art in this series is just amazing. I loved the way Polar Star dorm at the end looked like a beacon of light.

Erina's dad isn't her guardian anymore so he can't really make her do poo poo if she moves into Polar Star.

As director of the academy now he can absolutely go after the people who try and gently caress with him within the school though, including trying to shut down Polar Star. Maybe if they amp up the cartoonish villain vibes they can go full Simpsons and have her dad build an overpass over the dorm. Also any chapter that features Alice is a great chapter, she is the best.

And here I thought he meant Asami would take the form to register Erina, sit down on it, and glare at people so hard they can't get it. To defeat him, Souma has to make a dish that smells so good Asami can't resist going over to look at it.

Prediction: at some point, Souma will cook a dish and Azami will tell Erina to throw it in the trash but instead she will eat it and say it's delicious thus giving Souma the validation he wants and defying her father and people in the manga will be very surprised!!!

Aside from this picture (and again, mental image and all), I don't ever think I've seen an example of young Jouichiro being all hot-blooded. Most of the other flashbacks / photos show a really chill, down-to-earth dude that seemingly only wanted to either hang or make some bitchin' food. Wasn't he supposed to be like a brash trouble-maker? Also, the whole deal with Erina needing to be "saved" strikes me as really dumb. Yeah, Azami returning probably did a number on her and all, but at the end of the day, isn't old-man Senzaemon still her legal guardian? Food-Aizen should just step off on that front. Good thing Alice said "gently caress that noise" and got her cousin out of dodge. Because, while still not the cutest (Satoshi is still the cutest), Alice is the best.
