Let's see

one piece - I agree

Shokugeki - I did not see that coming.  This is some star wars shit going on here.  The loveable guy goes dark side. So the guy desperate to be the loveable guy - will also go dark side.  But then something happens and the loveable guy will go good again, and needs this competition to get the other guy to go good again.

Leaving the question - will Soma go dark side?

I think Souma's situation is different enough from Saiba that he isn't necessarily going to follow that same path. Saiba had everything, but felt his talents were being marganilized for being a 'genius', or dismissing all the hard work he put into his passion. With Souma, he's heralded as the underdog that challenges geniuses like his father. I think that parallel will be what ties this story to the present, since Saiba seems Souma as unique compared to the chefs who fled from challenging him.  

Of course...it would be interesting to see a plot like that. Or maybe that Dark Megumi theory will happen instead.

I knew it! I never trusted her, she always seemed too nice for me, but it does hurt that she was revealed evil just when Sanji committed to their marriage. This certainly was a great year for Sanji fans but not for the character himself :P. I'm also curious to see how this will affect Sanji, maybe this will change his perception on girls and end the pervert side of his character. Also I hope Reiju is the one who kicks Pudding's ass.

It would be great if Sanji dropped his chilvalrous side, at least somewhat, but I feel this will be something he refuses to sacrifice. I think Reiju or Nami will end up fighting Pudding, which will still please me greatly.

This has been getting more and more obvious I guess, but with this twist, and learning Big Mom's intentions, I think it's clear that this won't be a hit-and-run mission anymore. I really hope to see Luffy gain Yonko status after this arc...though we'll see.

And yes...to be Sanji is suffering. :P
