| Super_Boom said: Ah man...my favorite Shokugeki girl is out already. Damn Souma and his plot armor. I swear, whoever fights the MC in the first round of a tournament arc is always doomed. Predictability aside...this anime is still really enjoyable, and still makes me hungry whenever I watch. I'm hoping the Nakiri familiy gets more focus this season. Seeing Erina raise her voice (hehehe) and Alice boobs made me a happy boomer. Looking forward to Megumi fight. Even if she'll probably lose so edgy dude can fight Souma in the next round. Dang it. |
I feel like the plot armor is why the first episode felt as rushed as it did. The studio probably didn't want to focus on a prolonged series of episodes with an obvious outcome. It would be a pretty anticlimactic start to the second season if the MC lost immediately, or had any risk of losing to begin with.
I do hope future battles have more build up before the resolution though. And more intense foodgasms to match the first season.
