If this gets a second season, remember this... 12-16 episodes will be spent on the Autumn Elections. Great ending overall. There were some anime original scenes after the preliminaries.

5/5

Overall 9.1/10

Fantastic episode. I'm glad the fanservice wasn't embellished like the previous episode's.

But I can't believe they didn't show Subaru Mimasaki.

I had a feeling it would end with Souma losing to Akira, but still making it to the tournament.

Really hoping for a second season; either way I'm gonna start reading the manga. I need more!

As expected, I enjoyed the anime as much, if not more, than the manga. I usually try to stay away from ecchi, but SnS uses it mostly in a very fun and entertaining way. There are all type of of odd reactions and really ridiculous images that makes me burst into laughter. Not to mention, you learn a lot about cooking (although I also forget it right away). It truly is a battle shounen, in the form of cooking competitions and trials. There's quite a lot of intensity and excitement. The characters are quite static though, but at least we do see character growth with Souma and Megumi. This was a really fun ride, and I hope to see a second season!

pretty much what was expected for a last episode

all in all it was consistent, but they overdid it at some points, plus a lot of the characters were cheesy/the plot a bit too straightforward

the bgm helped it a lot tho

a decent watch overall, 6.5/10

10/10 Amazing finale. I was expecting Souma to get 94 points too, but he actually got less, damn.
And that Megumi smile at the end. Omg. I'm dead.

I loved this series. It was very enjoyable to watch and extremely addictive. It always made me want to have the food in front of me so I could eat it. There were probably too many characters and not enough development, but they were still fun.

The last episode was bit too predictable I think.

I would think this show is a shoe-in for a second season, but who knows, Japan is weird.

In-fucking-credible. Probably AotY, I don't even care, the hype levels the show induced me was something beyond.

I don't know why I love the show so much, is it because I just love cooking in general or is just a really well made show with a comedy that I dig. Eh, why am I even asking, it's definitely both. Who could have though that cooking battles can have this much tension and excitement?

it was entertaining, but not much else, im thinkin 4/10

mostly cause the last 5 episodes focused on almost all new characters and just knocked em out like that, the pacing wasnt great and the plot armor is strong with the mains... like you knew who was gonna win from the beginning, so theres no real surprise

the story itself wasnt that different from you generic shounen to be honest so nothing special there

art was decent but nothing out of the ordinary and music as well

That Souma and Megumi balcony twisted my heart and threw it out the window. I agree with Yoshino, it was such a nice mood!

Overall this series had perfect adaption (minus Ping-Pong Table Scene) that made me sad as a reader and a Megumi-fan. I wonder how you rate 11/10 on MAL?

Well , I'm kinda disappointed that we didn't get to see Subaru at the last moment. Hope they have good excuses ;) !

Apart from this , I was awe with the adaption of this "end" of the preliminaries. Mainly with the "Impact" of Soma's dish , I couldn't except for more with this action ! And at the end like a th beginning , it was great to see more off-chapters scenes , I really liked it :P

Like mostly everyone here , I hope we can get a 2nd season ;)

I kinda expected foodgasm from one of those critics but at least Erina had it.. sort of.
It was really surprising he ended on the second place (we, not really if we are counting group B too).
Well, he certainly did better meals before. But at least he can grow more now.

The ending with Megumi was great, dat "ore suki da yo" moment :D And he even gave her taste one of his disgusting meals :))

8/10 Definitely the best shounen of the year. Can't wait for the next season.

Thank you Shokugeki for 24 amazing weekends of eating amazing food while watching people cook amazing food. Thank you for bringing joy to my weekends. Thank you for making food seem so epic, I have never thought of it this way.

The best anime I've seen in a long time! I don't know what it was about this show, but I just loved every single bit of it. The plot, characters, culinary education, foodgasms; everything was just so enchanting to me. Gotta catch up on the manga now ASAP, and hopefully there will be a season 2 down the road.

Also, that last added bonus foodgasm from Erina-sama gave me life! <3 10/10

Putting the scores of Hayama, Souma and Kurokiba into perspective:

Hayama:
18 18 20 18 20 = 94
Souma:
19 19 18 19 18 = 93
Kurokiba:
19 18 18 19 19 = 93

Yeah but it's Soma who's super special amazing awesome MC, so he should be extra praised for it.
Or maybe it's because the specific judges who gave Hayama 18 gave Soma 19.
Either way both of them got 3 judges note their dish higher than Hayama.

perhaps because Ryo was the first contestant who got the high score and everyone else followed along the way.

You know how human attention works. We get easily distracted with people stealing the spotlight xDD Since Hayama ans Soma were last to showcase their works, they get more attention in the end xDD

The last episode. It was great anime to watch, I would go ahead and start reading manga if I didn't already read it before the anime started :).

All in all it was good adaptation and my only complain, the voice of Souma stopped bothering me after the while.

I wonder if there will be another season, I would like the rest of the story animated. The amount of manga material... well right now it might not last for another 24 episode serie without doing bad pacing but maybe in the future.

When I first heard of this anime, I wasn't that interested due to the ecchi theme. But after the 3rd episode, I started to really like it. I went on to read the manga and I love it!
This anime is one of the best of this season. I really hoped that they would announce a second season at the end. Oh wells, let's just hope there will be an announcement sometime later. The ending was wonderful and cute xD No hate to Megumi, but I like Erina more.

That may be part of it, but it's mostly for a different reason.

When you compare the scores of Hayama and Souma, you'll see that 3 out of 5 judges rated Soumas curry higher than Hayamas. While Hayama won by points this time, 3/5 judges "voted" for Souma which would give him the victory if this would have been a direct confrontation.
The same goes for Ryo but it didn't have that impact because it was way before.

But what Ryo didn't have was all the arguing of the judges, it's human nature that it has that impact although it wasn't that big a deal in the big picture (comparing it with Ryos score).

Great finale, it left a pleasant taste in my mouth! Lovely cast of characters and I think it's been a very long time since I've liked a male MC as much as Souma. Even though a part of me wanted him to beat Hayama in the rankings, it's way too early for Souma to always win against these culinary 'bosses' in their respective fields. That's for the sequel lol.

Anyway, I thought the first cour was a solid 10/10, pretty much a perfect shounen series which kept me drooling for the next ep. The summer camp was my most enjoyable part of the show. I started to lose interest when Souma returned to his home town because it had a completely different feel. The elections tried to bring it back with more competitive cooking but was much slower and never really reached the height of the first cour.

7/10. Fantastic first half, average second half. I adored the the first OP/ED (the Last Supper reference was perfect) but wasn't too crazy for second ones. It definitely needs another season!
