Soma is a great character! His ability to just pick up from his mistakes and apply advice straight away is what makes him such a good character. He's relentless in his desire to move forward and improve.

1 ep to go, I'm really going to miss this series.

It's pretty impressive that they managed to make what was essentially equivalent to a training arc feel so high stakes and intense regardless.

Lol at Alice joke.

This was a really entertaining episode, watching Souma improve and working with the others.
Shinomiya seems much cooler than before too.

Damn, really looking forward to next episode!

This episode made me fall in love with Yukihira Soma once again. I want to be like him. He doesn't let anything get to him. And what does he do when he was failing? He studied, all night. He can do what everyone would think is impossible. He never let himself or anyone else down. And he also still think of ways to improve himself or the restaurants hes been in. People could really look up to him and his ways of thinking. I really love Yukihira 💓

So I just noticed ... I guess they change the chara in the ED for each episode? :P Since Shinomiya was featured this time XD Anyway, really loved this episode! It was great seeing Souma be out of his element on the first day then really work hard towards becoming a valuable member by the fourth. Not to mention gaining the respect of all the SHINO'S staff too! Dang, that kitchen atmosphere is pretty intense though! We got to see a little bit of everyone else but obviously the main focus is on Souma. I wonder what he's planning for the competition? :O Of course, I'm still expecting him to lose (against Shinomiya again ;P) but maybe he'll reveal his "specialty" to us ... :D

Shinomiya has a blonde fanboy. Let the yaoi secks begin! D: I prefer Shinomiya with his glasses on, he looks like an intelligent asshole as opposed to his sans-glasses asshole look.

I think that "rush cooking" was kind of bullshit. I have waited for long periods of time at restaurants. One time, I had to wait for an hour for my food. I have yet to go to a place (that isn't fast food) that serves food that quickly.

I felt like they rushed through the stagiaire of the other characters, some of them looked really interested but then again this is only a 13 episode anime and they need to focus on the protagonist and I'm not going to read the manga any time soon.

Souma, now experienced the real tension of being in a high class kitchen of the Magician Shinomiya!
LOL @ Shinomiya "of all people you dare challenge me"
Shinomiya really envisions his young self within Souma.
Souma's getting really refined on this kind of experience and it would be a lot of help when getting back to the Tootsuki academy! Just like a sharpened knife, Souma will be sharpened also here.
Souma's specialty "unique", this is what he's trying to achieve and again declares competition against Shinomiya.
Souma never lets himself down even with all those insults because with more challenge it makes him better in his passion of being a chef!
the OST used was also great with a mix of violin to fit the france/Italian theme!
5/5!

If I can admire something about Yukihira is: Maybe he can be pissed off too much, being humiliated, etc. He don't get depresed and can advance with a smile.

This episode gave me a déjà vu feeling... I think this was the perfect thing that could happen to all of the students. There's nothing like hands on experience and Yukihira probably had it the best with that high level in quality restaurant (Shino's Tokyo). Erina taste buds better watch out our MC is growing into a bad m*therf%cker!

So Shinmiyo is opening a new restaurante in Tokyo. Seeing Souma as his stagiaire for this week was definitely something I really wanted to see. In the last season they didn't had a good start especially with the shokugeki challenge of Souma against Shinomiya. It seems Shinomiyo changed a little bit since then , at least his staff was talking about it.

Also all the other Totsuki students had a super stressful week and it seems a lot of them failed.

The pre opening days were pretty hard for Souma. He made a whole new experience about working in an absolute top restaurante. At first I felt sorry for him but I knew he will keep going no matter what will happen. And even when Shinomiya wasn't giving any tips about all the things they do, Souma found it out by himself and improved by so much. He's like a spong who's absorbing every single information about new techniques and cook types. Even the staff was speachless :D

And now he has the chance to bring an own cooked dish on the menu. That will be interesting to see if he will succeed. Go Souma! :)

This arc is so good. Shinomiya has become such a likable character, and his relationship with Sōma is great to watch.

Also, I'm looking forward to seeing how much the other characters develop from their stagiaires in S3.

Great growth for Yukihira, in fact, catching the jolly, while others do not seem to have made a long way in what to do in the world of work. It was a pity, though, not to see the other characters during their internship.

Souma knocks.
Dat Koujirou smile.
The first customer is here.
That lady has nice oppai.
Damn. Souma having trouble.
lol at dude getting fat.
Dat Alice scene. I've seen enough hentai to know where that's going.
Ryouko oppai jiggle.
That woman telling the dude he failed is cute.
Souma wants to submit a dish?

It initially looked like it was going to be a breeze like the first restaurant he interned at but the first night had him barely keep up with the pace because of the culture shock he received from the new quicker-paced, no-nonsense environment that's completely different from the usual noisy diner rush he usually handles and the dozens of foreign culinary terms that stopped him in his tracks. Even though everyone let him knew that they were being burdened by him, he spent all his time familiarizing himself with the unfamiliar until he reached the point where he can prepare which dishes needed cooking before the whole staff can react. He'd come such a long way that I can't help but feel so proud for him ♥

It'd be nice if the others had a longer time on the spotlight but since it's only 13 episodes, I'm fine with seeing them anyway. I really like how they handled how Souma asked Shinomiya to participate in the contest because it gave major deja vu vibes and really showed how much they've advanced since they last met.

Shinomiya improved this season by causing Soumato to have difficulties in a new kitchen field. This is how u portray the realism of a top notch kitchen. 5/5

I know this is the hottest of takes but I'm starting to think Food Wars is a better franchise than BNHA. I actually care about the world, the characters grow and their actions make sense. Plus they actually pull off the comedy. And the main character isn't a massive twat crying everywhere over everything.

This was a good episode, main character had to change himself in real time to get gud. Imposing head chef kept his distance and respect. This show never fails to ask, "But how can you get better?" which is what shounen is supposed to be about--progress. Something BNHA fails at, as well as world building.

I hate series that try to create a world and then fall on their face when they can't define what it is or live up to expectations.

A part of me wishes the Autumn Election went the full season and the Stagiaire started off season 3 just to give more time to everything. But regardless, this was my favorite episode of this season so far. I just love arcs like these where characters develop their skills in the real world of cooking, and witnessing Soma take the next step to his cooking journey through this Shinomiya Stagiaire experience feels so cathartic.

Best chefs across the world trained in many, many different restaurants of many different cuisines and get their asses kicked repeatedly, but still learn from their mistakes and grow and evolve to the point that they've mastered a good amount of the craft.

Soma getting the opportunity to work with a former first seat of Totsuki Academy, and a former Pluspol winner is such an amazing platform for his career to skyrocket, both in reputation and just general skills. He's been great with unorthodox dishes but that's not a real specialty, but now he's actually getting to work in conditions where dishes have to be pure perfection and refined in the best ways possible, all in an intense environment while working with other people in rhythm that isn't his father. Seeing him make a ton of mistakes, and learn and grow is pretty amazing to watch and there's no better place for him to grow like this than in a Shinomiya restaurant.

Souma's brilliance is his ability to be BOTH confident in his cooking AND be willing to learn from anyone on how to improv himself. He has one healthy ego.

I haven't stopped smiling during this training arc episode. He also received the highest honour/compliment having The Head Chef say finish this dish for me🔥🔥❄️❄️. Shinomiya respects Souma more than anyone else in the 92nd Generation. TBF he has earned that respect. Idk how Souma isn't sleep-deprived. I just deeped it he is sleep-deprived he just doesn't care and won't tolerate any excuses from himself. Souma chooses to keep preserving regardless of the circumstances. He is a true man.

Soma still crazy as ever asking to participate in competition with the chefs in Shinomya's restaurant while he himself is an intern still adapting to working environment. Though he's progressing well.
Soma's specialty dish? can't wait.
