it's kinda strange that a guy who only sees other people as tools would go into the service industry

High level uberchefs like Tsukasa aren't really in the service industry. They're regarded more like artists and people eat their food just so they can say they did half the time (that sounds more dismissive of the whole idea than I intend, you don't get to that position unless you are legit in the first place)

I think the overall idea is that Tsukasa is supposed to be a darker mirror to Soma, in that they both learn from others, but while Soma is like "lemme see some of dat! :dance:" and would totally dig on your vamping, Tsukasa just wants stuff that's useful to him. The funny thing is that Soma is supposed to be kind of rude, but is much more personable on his rudeness.

Also, that chapter cover is amazing. Rindou reaffirms her position as best girl while Eizan and Saitou are both :stare:

Shocked I tell you
Litterly everything that needs to be said about him is show in the flashback were he takes that girls paint without asking to make his picture better, and sees nothing wrong with having upset her.

ACTUALLY IT IS VERY GOOD THAT THE SHOW IS BAD AND ANYONE WHO DOESN'T REALIZE WHY THAT'S GOOD IS AN IDIOT. JUST ENJOY THE BAD SHOW INSTEAD OF THINKING.
So are they ever going to go into Soma’s mom or does the series just end after Erina beats Rindo and Tsukasa?

Gonna laugh when she turns out to have been some super important chef because obviously everyone is one.

Not just here. but on other forums, too. There will still be more mountains for Soma to cook after Tsukasa loses!

I dunno. This arc feels pretty final, to be honest. Then again, I said the same thing after Zenkichi won the Student Council President seat, and Medaka Box ended up lasting a whole year after that, so take my predictions with copious amounts of salt.

Yeah and Claymore apparently had the secret organization spend years making half human half demon hybrids as a weapon to fight the war on the mainland against the dragon people which we saw for about one two-page spread.

Knowing Isshiki, he stripped down for the hell of it. He's been wearin clothes for way too long already.

This seems correct, given that his clothing appears to be neatly folded to the right of him on page 18.

How Isshiki's chef title didn't end up being The Naked Chef we'll never know.

He's not allowed to cook in just and apron and fundoshi in big matches unfortunately so the name never took hold. Once free of the restraints of his family, he shall truly be the Naked Chef

Rindou's definitely gonna turn. She's not the type to forfeit, but I'd gather she'd possibly switch sides or do something to get a more fair match.

Rindou's gonna fail because her heart has never been with Azami's team and she was just following her friend Tsukasa, and then Tsukasa is going to be all troubled by that as he fights all three at once.

It's definitely gonna turn into a 3v1 against Tsukasa, but I'd wager (more like I prefer) it's Rindou playing the third wheel against him rather than Takumi.

it was always going to end with even numbers because having some extra who didn't compete would mean they would need yet another round afterward. i suppose it's still possible that either erina or souma could lose on the next round, leaving the other one to have a final battle but that doesn't seem like it would flow well.

edit: oh. actually read the chapter, so i guess not.

They really should have had this whole thing be like Megumi's big shokugeki from hotel: one person takes point and the other 2 help prepare the dish with them
Instead of mostly separated matches where there was like 3 instances of team work total. Eshiki & Takumi didn't even talk, did they?

My guess is this ends with Rindou trying to help Tsukasa who tells her to piss off, she quits/leaves, Soma and Erina actually work together and beat him.
