Sakaki Anee-san!!!!!

Though we haven't seen a lot from her, I'm hopping on board the Erina ship. The way Soma just gives zero fucks about her more cold side makes for a really amusing relationship. I hope to see more in the upcoming chapters!


This. I'm usually not a fan of the tsundere archetype, but Souma's apathy towards her cold attitude makes for some amusing moments between the two of them.

Although I do think a re-do on this poll might be in order soon... Quite a few of these characters didn't get a chance to shine until very recently.
That's why I like them too. Erina and Soma fight a lot (well it's mostly Erina insulting Soma, and him teasing her), which feels more dynamic than SomaxMegumi (which is basically him encouraging Megumi when she's being timid).

Ryoko is actually my second pick for best girl. She seems to balance Soma's craziness without seeming exasperated by it. When he was discussing the Bentos with her they seemed to have chemistry. It saddens me that shipping that is a true exercise in futility.
Well put. I guess it's kind of sweet that Soma could be that confidence cornerstone for Megumi, but it's not the sort of relationship I feel works for Soma.

I like Sakaki, she's very mature and caring. I guess that does work with Soma's childish recklessness. Why can't she be with Soma u_u lol

And yeah, it doesn't work at all for me.

Alice
She's the only girl who isn't a stereotype she doesn't look down on people just because of her status, she likes to banter, she's quick withed and fore once doesn't immediately falls in love with the main character.

Erina.
I usually don't like tsundere girls nowadays, but something about Erina makes her one of the few exceptions in my book.

In some ways she would be near perfect for him. It all depends on his goals. If he really wants to open his own "special of the day" restaurant, then her skills in ensuring customers have an incredible experience (learned from working at her parents inn, and her desire to know the total meal experience) would be very well suited for him.

However if that were indeed his goal, in many ways Arato would be even better. Her restaurant management skills would be a absolutely great combination, indeed, they would be unbeatable.

But both of them shouldn't end up with Souma, they would be wasting their own overwhelming talent. It is sort of like Inui and Shinomiya, they both obviously love each other, but if Shinomiya let her help him, her own restaurant would suffer. In that capacity the most perfect person is of course Erina. While she can be a master chef, her ultimate talent is eating, so in an ironic way she has the least to give up compared to the others, because in giving up cooking she would gain far more in the tasting.

Wow so love and marriage is based around business eh? lol That's so romantic. In that case Erina is even better. She's highly acknowledged in the food industry, so she could help Soma perfect his cooking and even bring high class people around :D

And where did you even see Iniu and Shinomiya obviously being in love with each other? You have a creative imagination.

I've not seen even a flick of attraction between Inui and Shinomiya. Their interaction is Inui teasing him and him grabbing her face and squeezing it, that's it.

I know most of you adore Megumi and think Erina's a bitch but there are also others out there who think otherwise. It's not the first time intl consensus differed from the Japanese's. And in regards to the poll, they probably did it through mail/postcards/text messages.

--------

For me, best girl would probably be Hinako. She looks like Megumi but she's quirky and has more of an identity. I liked seeing her interactions with Kojiro.

I also really like Alice, Ikumi, Yuki, and Hisako. The others, I really couldn't care less.

Yeah agreed. In these polls, usually the "cold" characters seem to rank higher than the "warm" ones. So it's not a surprise.

There might be, but for now Hinako only tease Kojiro (which IMO is not strong enough to pass as attraction). I was just rectifying the other guy saying they are "obviously in love". They had a similar interaction in Shinomiya's Tokyo as well with Hinako shouting at Kojiro for not letting her help him and him saying she has her own restaurant.

Don't get me wrong, Soma and Megumi have a sweet chemistry with each other. She has trouble with confidence and Soma helped her get that, so they have this friendship that arose from that interaction. But nothing else about them really meshes. You think about their respective drives and personalities and they seem to be discordant to one another. Not every couple has perfect chemistry, but they're just my thoughts.
Soma and Erina actually seem to have those base connections that work rather well. Both set their eyes on the top and are willing to fight with everything they have to get there. And in typical tsundere fashion, Erina has that hidden aspect of her that's fun but competitive, just like Soma. You also have the additional interaction that he swears he'll make her admit his food was good+A woman being needed to truly become a great chef (Soma's dad's advice)+Erina's adoration/admiration for Soma's dad.
Analyzing the girls' respective future plans and skills is not a bad way of looking at it.
Oh, and the Inui x Shinomiya ship never felt too real to me. Felt more akin to the author throwing out a hint of interaction just to stir up the shippers (and it definitely worked). I ship it, but without more genuine interaction between them (beyond silly antics), I wouldn't say their love was obvious.

This poll was worldwide, which means even us, the oversea fans, could vote. It was done online, with your twitter account or another way (I did it with my twitter acc). I think you had multiple choices as well.

Of course, most who voted were Japanese than us, seeing how in this thread none knew we could vote as well.

If anything someone should question the popularity of Hishoko jumping out of nowhere in top 5 than why Erina is second again.

Anyways, for this poll I voted for Erina. She is my favourite girl in the story. I usually dislike tsundere types, but with Erina is working damn well. I like self-confident, helpful and prideful woman who know exactly where they stand and what they want, get their job done and have a line with serious and smug faces.

Second is Alice, because she is pretty great and I like her pouting faces a lot (both nakiris have great faces when you tease them). Hishoko is third favourite because how helpful and cute she can be.

With Megumi, I first thought she would be my favourite but for some reason, I just think of her as "fine" and nothing more. I like her character development although I would like for help to have more self confidence and stand her opinion.

I'd say... Nikumi as the starter, Alice for the main course and then Erina for the dessert.

That aside, since Nakiri Erina has the God’s tongue… If Tsukuda Yuuto doesn’t make her kiss Yukihira, thus savoring the taste of her first kiss/the taste of love, and then become addicted to our MC’s taste…. I’ll be pretty disappointed.

Megumi is nothing like Hinata. Megumi is way better. Her flashback shows that she's willing to learn cutting a monkfish when she's still just a little girl. A little girl. And she can handle herself well enough. Even Kurokiba Ryo had acknowledged her.

That's her character. But you can't ignore the fact that it was her that motivated him to REALLY strive harder. Remember the opening ceremony? Soma swore to make Erina that he'll make her say one day that his food are delicious.

That made me think that the series will end once Erina says,

"It's delicious, Soma." *blushes*smile

Alice is fun

Megumi is waifu cute

Nikumi is a hot cute Tsundere

Rindou does things to my D

Hisako's interactions with Souma and her adorable smile in chp133 won me over. I already liked her but that chp made her my 2nd fav.

With all that said Erina is my #1 Her Tsun is so strong and yeah she may be a stubborn bitch which gets annoying sometimes. BUT!! She's inevitably gonna go dere and when she does she'll be the cutest ever <3

Just imagining her interactions with Souma from then onward make me HHNNNNNGGGG
Esp their interactions in private :3

Even now I personally feel like Erina is the girl Souma likes to tease the most.

PS...Ryouko will always have a special place in my heart. The same as Rindou, she does things to my D
