This has definitely been the weakest season so far imo. Felt extremely rushed and the worst part has to be how they've just cut out practically all the actual COOKING in a cooking shounen show. Heck that's like half of the reason I enjoy the series so much.

Also still scratching my head about how they were making the team shokugeki out to be a match where teamwork plays a big role (wasn't that the point of the Saiba vs Dojima practice match) only for there to be absolutely ZERO teamwork in the actual team shokugeki.

Another downside of this season has definitely been the pacing. Felt ... way too rushed imo. I know that this arc is apparently dragged on too slowly in the manga, but the anime's solution of just blasting through the content is not any better. The biggest victim of this would have to be the actual cooking in the shokugeki's. Only giving us a little (and later on, none at all) of the cooking process and then just jumping into the judging stage doesn't give the victories as much weight. Also didn't like how they skipped a whole section of Yukihira and co. gathering up their team for the final match (though this is apparently how the manga did it).

If it gets any more seasons, it'll have to step up to the level of the previous seasons to have me come back to this show cause this season definitely has soured me to the adaptation as a whole.
