I'm more curious as to why (aside from narrative convenience) no other Elite Ten member was invited to the tournament.

Because plot favoritism. Takumi and Megumi have absolutely no reason to be in this tournament when Isshiki and Rindou aren't.

Maybe they didn't care about being in it.

Megumi does despite probably still intending to just inherit the family inn and having her greatest character flaw being a lack of ambition and aggression.

....so, uh, that's it?

Asahi's story and ambitions are pretty meh.

Oh, so they're not even going to show how Megumi and Takumi passed. They've really dropped all pretenses of those two mattering.

*Shokugeki no Soma is a cooking manga

I wonder if that consultant chef left? Even through the Azami arc there was enough detail in the preparation that you got the feeling this food was actually possible to make if you knew what you were doing. Now it's chainsaw wielding cosplayers and food that's just better because I said so, got it?

Is her name still on the tanks? I don't think it's on the chapters like it used to be.

Nope, still there.

Honestly, I've just transitioned to reading this in the same way I did Bleach.

I'm just kinda not even bothering to look at the details anymore.

Hm, I guess Bali is really a popular tourist spot after all.

Same. And since the dishes are now completely unrealistic even by "rich" standards, I just skip the parts where they explain what they did.

Ok, these guys are super stupid they become entertaining.

They're really doubling down on the cooking supervillain angle this much....

Honestly for me this just feels likethe series going off the deep end.

That bridge was passed when Azami took over.

It's just been downhill from there.

I'm still wondering what was the point of even showing the new elite 10 was.

This series became a parody of itself.

I'm sad.

Bleach has found its successor.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Souma have to feed Sarge a beef dish to pass to this round where they're facing each other? So why is she talking like she's never seen him make a dish before?

I get the feeling he just didn't like the challenge so he challenged her to a shoukugeki instead of playing along

Well, time for Eishi to job, I guess.
