Isshiki's special ingredient is youth. Bright, shiny, sweaty, youth.

His dish looks and sounds super tasty and way more interesting than the soba dishes, I wanna eat it.

the mangastream's out and a lot of its translations are way better and more clear, but [ISSHIKI WAS WATCHING--!] will always beat [ISSHIKI WITNESSES SOMETHING]

Just read the mangastream version. I feel like I'd switch around some translations, there's some word choice I prefer from the first link.

Isshiki is like the biggest loving bro ever. Dude loving loves that dorm and everyone vaguely associated with it. Like, Nikumi doesn't even sort of live there.

I wish I could get a blown-up version of Orochi Isshiki, without the text.

Also, when are Nikumi and the Aldinis and Mimisaka and freaking everybody going to just move into Polar Star already?

Don't sully his love with imagined reasons.
Aldinis have an apartment i think, Nikumi's been shown being driven around in a limo so her folks probably live in the same city, Mimisaka's family is loaded so he probably has an apartment. I'd guess most of them have something like that.

Tootsuki is full of rich kids that have set-ups like that, living in the dorms is actually pretty unusual.

Soma is just going to name his cooking specialty as "Shokugeki" and then just run a diner where he challenges the guest chefs he invites.

Most of them have posh apartments. Some of them have actual mansions, like Erina and Hishoko because their families' primary business concern is running Totsuki.

Interesting that a place where everyone has to eat their own food to taste is has no fat people and everyone has six pack abs even though we've seen like one person working out ever.

tbh most Actual Chefs that I've encountered are really healthy, fit people. Everyone being toned and ripped is a stretch, but there not being too many big eater boys isn't as much of a stretch as it seems like it should be

i dunno about culinary students, but chefs burn a lot of calories working. add in teenage metabolisms and it isn't terribly strange compared to every other detail of the setting.

Not everyone is a super fit person anyway, most of them seem to be fairly normal healthy weight teens. A couple seem pretty fit, like Naked Apron, but most don't. There's even fat people who are named characters.

In the chef thread in GWS one of the jokes is that the only reason a professional chef would be overweight/fat is because of all the booze they consume to stay functionally sane.

A city that was to live by night after the wilderness had passed. A city that was to forge out of steel and blood-red neon its own peculiar wilderness.
Kuga, Megishima and Mimasaka

Lmao all of these dudes besides maybe Mimasaka are gonna get chumped.

Off the top of my head:
  • There's 10 Polar Star Dorm people
  • The elite 10
  • There's at least 10 recurring students neither polar star nor elite 10
  • All the alumni, senpais and teachers
  • Sponsors, connoisseurs and what-have-you
Yeah, I think we're fine.

I dunno if Megishima will get in on the second round, but I definitely expect to see Kuga and Mimasaka go up to bat against Tsukasa and two others. Maybe Rindou against Mimasaka and idk about the last one.

I also expect a full rout against the Rebels.

it seems very obvious that the elite ten will sweep the next round. at most, they might lose once if erina participates.
