[00:03] Erina
    The WGO has officially gotten
    word about the BLUE.
[00:09] Erina
    According to the announcement, three
    representatives from Totsuki Academy may enter.
[00:14] Erina
    What we need to figure out is who
    those three are going to be.
[00:17] Soma
    All right! I'm gonna do it!
[00:19] Soma
    It's the competition that my dad was
    supposed to be in, and I'm the first seat!
[00:22] Erina
    Hush your mouth!
[00:24] Erina
    Since the three who'll fill the spots
    were not appointed by the WGO,
[00:27] Erina
    we will let the whole school
    compete for them, as we should.
[00:30] Alice
    Oh? Are you planning on
    competing in the BLUE?
[00:33] Erina
    I've been invited outside of those three spots.
[00:36] [SONG] Sign
    Decided
[00:37] Erina
    I'm already competing.
[00:39] Both
    What? No fair!
[00:41] Erina
    I can't blame you for finding that unfair.
[00:44] Erina
    But I must compete in the BLUE no matter what.
[00:50] Soma
    So if I compete in the BLUE, I'll be able
    to compete against you too, Nakiri.
SIGN    Elite Ten Meeting Room
[00:54] Kuro
    I'm the one who's gonna compete in the BLUE!
[00:56] Akira
    It doesn't look like they'll be picking
    from the top-ranking Elite Ten.
[01:00] Kuga
    Well, if it was determined by dirty money,
    Eizan'd have no competition.
[01:05] Eizan
    And if we were going by the shrimpiest,
    you'd reign supreme, Kuga.
[01:13] Isshiki
    I guess we'll have to figure out
    a way we're all satisfied with.
[01:17] Nene
    We have to prepare for the Autumn Elections,
     too, so we don't have much time.
[01:21] Taku
    So who are we going to pick, and how?
[01:23] Soma
    Yeah.
[01:25] Hisa
    Of course, Erina-sama has
    already figured this out.
[01:28] Hisa
    I will be participating, as well.
[01:30] Erina
    All will be settled the day

    Huh? What? Huh? Huh?
[14:44] Taku
    Congratulations, Tadokoro-san.
[14:46] Megu
    U-Um, but... all of the judges'
    reactions to my dish were...
[14:50] Megu
    less than favorable...
[14:52] Hina
    That was before we got to
    taste it, Tadokoro Megumi-san.
[14:56] Girl
    Seafood meatballs.
[14:58] Girl
    To think that in each and every one of those
[14:59] Girl
    was miso soup created with
    multiple kinds of miso.
[15:03] Hina
    Each one was like opening a jack-in-the-box!
[15:06] Hina
    It felt like we were traveling across Japan
[15:08] Hina
    as kusudama were popping open with flavor!
[15:11] Some
    Hokkaido!
[15:12] Some
    Aizu!
[15:12] Some
    Nagasaki!
[15:13] Some
    Echigo!
[15:13] Some
    Satsuma!
[15:14] Some
    Tokai!
[15:14] Some
    Sendai!
[15:15] Some
    Setouchi!
[15:16] Some
    Kaga!
[15:16] Some
    Tsugaru!
[15:17] Some
    Kyoto!
[15:17] Some
    Edo!
[15:18] Girl
    And each miso soup had other
    local ingredients mixed in.
[15:23] Girl
    Everyone would feel some nostalgia
    from at least one of these flavors.
[15:27] Girl
    You definitely didn't play fair.
[15:28] Gin
    It was indeed a trip around Japan,
[15:30] Gin
    enjoying the local varieties of miso soup!
[15:31] Guy
    What a fun travelogue.
[15:34] Erina
    It was an unrivaled dish,
    fit to represent Totsuki.
[15:38] Megu
    Thank you very much...
[15:40] Megu
    I got some inspiration from the dish
    Isshiki-senpai made at the Team Shokugeki.
[15:46] Megu
    So it's a physical representation of
    all of the fun memories I've shared
[15:49] Megu
    with everyone here.
[15:56] Isshiki
    You came from such a little garden,
[15:58] Isshiki
    but now, you're flying off to new heights.
[16:01] Isshiki
    You did a great job, Tadokoro-kun.

    Why are you trying to cheer me up, Miss Alice?

    It just doesn't seem real yet.

    We've only got a week left,

    Man, they're definitely waiting for your answer.
[17:28] Asahi
    Go on, have some more cheese cod strips.
[17:30] Soma
    Oh, it's Suzuki-sensei.
[17:32] Megu
    This is a first-year class?
[17:33] Asahi
    Well, look at that. It's the
    Elite Ten's first and tenth seats.
[17:38] Soma
    Uh, what're you doing?
    It's spring break, Suzuki-sensei.
[17:38] Guy
    What? The Elite Ten?
[17:39] Girl
    I've never seen them so close before.
[17:42] Asahi
    Well, I end up going overseas all the time,

[18:31] Asahi
    Hey, thanks for that.
[18:33] Asahi
    You really livened things up.
[18:35] Soma
    You think so?
[18:36] Asahi
    Especially when you went,
[18:37] Asahi
    "So basically, this is a
    Shokugeki between you and me."
[18:40] Asahi
    Not many people are dense enough
    to actually say something like that.
[18:44] Soma
    Aw, quit flattering me. You're making me blush.
[18:47] Megu
    I don't think that was a compliment...
[18:49] Asahi
    So, since we're all here...
[18:51] Asahi
    You mind doing a Shokugeki with me,
[18:56] Asahi
    Yukihira-kun?
[18:59] Megu
    Huh? A Shokugeki?
[19:01] Megu
    But for that, we need permission from
    the administration and an observer.
[19:06] Megu
    We can't do it right away.
[19:07] Asahi
    Oh, I see. Well, then, let's just
    have a friendly little competition.
[19:12] Asahi
    We'll call it a continuation
    of the BLUE Preliminaries.
[19:15] Asahi
    I need a victory against the
    first seat of the Elite Ten...
[19:18] Asahi
    for the woman I need to
    devote all of my cooking to.
[19:24] Asahi
    The one who possesses the God Tongue...
[19:26] Asahi
    The heir to the Nakiri family
    that rules over Totsuki Academy.
[19:30] Girl
    How wonderful.
[19:31] Girl
    She's always so beautiful.

    Good day. Make sure to
    keep up with your studies.

    Director Nakiri Erina.
[19:40] Asahi
    I want to make her mine.

[19:44] Asahi
    the best man at her side,
    or it won't work out, will it?
[19:48] Megu
    Uh... make Nakiri-san yours?
[19:51] Megu
    What do you...
[19:53] Asahi
    I'm going to make Nakiri Erina
[19:55] Asahi
    my bride.
[19:56] Megu
    What?!
[19:58] Asahi
    Though I haven't made my move just yet.
[20:02] Asahi
    But I knew from the moment I met her...
[20:05] Asahi
    that she and I had something special.
[20:10] Megu
    Omigosh!
[20:12] Megu
    Gettin' engaged? But she ain't outta school yet!
[20:14] Megu
    It's like a dang shojo manga!
[20:16] Asahi
    Director Erina is the perfect woman for me.
[20:20] Asahi
    And the ultimate chef who
    can satisfy her tongue...
[20:24] Asahi
    is me, and none other than me!
[20:27] Soma
    Now, hang on a damn second.
[20:29] Soma
    Who died and made you king?
[20:31] Soma
    I have some business with
    Erina's tongue, too.
[20:35] Soma
    Her tongue's pretty damn useful.
[20:38] Erina
    Yukihira-kun?
[20:40] Asahi
    Well, you're free to think whatever you want,
[20:43] Asahi
    but this is crystal clear...

    Nakiri Erina's mine.
[20:50] Both
    I won't let anyone else have her!
[20:58] Soma
    Fine. Let's do this, Suzuki-sensei.

    If you're so sure you can make
    a dish that'll defeat me,
[21:06] Soma
    let's see it. Right here, right now.
[21:08] Asahi
    Well, now that that's settled...
[21:10] Asahi
    Let's say the theme will be anything
    using the ingredients available here.
[21:14] Asahi
    That means you're gonna be
    the judge, Tadokoro-san. Thanks.

     Who would be better?

    Hey, Sensei.

    Can I just say one thing before we start?
[21:28] Soma
    You're no ordinary teacher, are you?
[21:32] Asahi
    Well, I don't know about that.
[21:34] Asahi
    But you know... everyone has a secret.

    Huh... So you are hiding something.
