Y-san from Chiba Prefecture still racking up those votes, I see.

I feel like giving them a full month to prep seems like an unusually long extension of their school trip. Then again, Totsuki apparently owns the entirety of Sapporo, so I guess its fine. And if building a stadium were as easy as in this series, we'd still have the Chargers. :sigh:

There's only like 2 ways this ends.

A) The rebel scum win the shokugeki, get onto the Elite 10 and the series ends without any particular conclusion;

B) The rebel scum win the shokugeki but don't simply assign themselves the Elite 10 positions because it's "unfair" to do it that way, which results in some kind of competition where the original E10 gets their places back but agree to expel Azami from the school. They continue on as if nothing happened and have to earn shots at the same E10 members from before. For comedy purposes, Joichirou then explains this kind of hostile takeover happens a lot.

Distant third possibility:

C) The rebels lose, but the remaining members reverse their votes and choose to leave them in the school and expel Azami instead. This happens for Rindou Reasons™.

I don't think its very likely the series would keep going if Soma and his friends were allowed to simply install themselves and their friends in the Elite 10 and just continue on like its not a big deal they're the top poo poo in the school.

C) the rebel scum wins, we're off to BLUE, now Souma gets to surpass his dad and also beat Shinomiya in an incredible display of power creep

D) have an arc in second year where an upstart 1st year tries to take over the school with healthy cooking/steal the guys' platonic girlfriends (in a plot twist it's the camera kid for both)

And the first one's actually been seeded so it's probably happening at some point

I don't think they're planning to just replace the "FIRST SEAT IS THE BEST!" thing with an outside competition.

The Central 6 are stupid as gently caress for letting Azami stay on as Dean anyways. He just bet their futures and places on the Ten as part of a petty scheme to woo his high school husbando.

I think the key thing there is it being a wager would imply they could lose.

If there's one thing we've seen about the E10 it's that they're all super confident that it won't happen, so to them this might actually come off as having no downside whatsoever.

I mean, part of the problem with the E10 is that outside of Rindou, we know almost nothing about any of them and their motives for either supporting Azami or personal motives are completely unknown. They're basically just mooks with practically no real ability to do anything they aren't instructed to do by Azami, despite us being told that the mooks are actually in charge.

Even with Rindou we know virtually nothing about. My guess is that the only reason we know anything about Rindou at all is because the character is really popular.

I'm thinking the rebels lose but the elite 10 is just so impressed by their tenacity and creativity that they decide to stop agreeing with Azami.

Aside from Isshiki (Naked Apron-senpai :swoon:), who seems to be a chill guy, the original Elite 10 are...
  • Erina- Haughty and holier-than-thou until recently, when she just went full tsundere. Get Jouichirou-senpai to notice her.
  • Eizan- Hilarious douchebag. Best :gonk: faces. Money and getting back at Soma, that meddling kid!
  • Kuga- Was originally just a hilarious douchebag + spoiled brat. Wants to get revenge / acknowledgment from Tsukasa.
  • Nene- Boring Rei Ayanami / Yuki Nagato looking girl. Might change given the fact that she does seem to have a sense of humor. Other than that, nada.
  • Soumei- Boring arrogant Martial Arts type dude. Other than that, nada.
  • Momo- Insufferable brat. Sweet tooth and the skills to back it up. Can be legally considered socially retarded.
  • Tosuke- We literally know nothing about this guy other than he looks like a FoTNS kind-of-guy and that he's behind Rindou and Tsukasa in ranking.
  • Rindou- Best girl. A rollicking, fun kind of gal. Wants to have fun.
  • Eishi- Elitist dipshit, almost on par with Food Hitler. Occasionally hilarious in his inability to handle Rindou-related shenanigans and something of a pain in the butt.
e:Okay, Ytlaya has a point.

And now we have to deal with 3 new members, who've only been seen in silhouette. There's gonna need to be some good introductions for them to help the personality levels of the E10.

1 was Hayama before his loss to Souma, so unless they somehow found another member there are only 8 dudes to beat.
