[00:04] Soma
    This day sure got here pretty fast.
[00:07] Megumi
    Y-Yeah...
[00:08] Takumi
    The BLUE... I guess this is
    where we're going to battle.
[00:11] Soma
    But man, to think it'd be held
    at a castle. That's awesome.
[00:15] Takumi
    Apparently they used to hold
    this event at huge arenas,
[00:18] Takumi
    but it seems the contest is
    completely different this time.
[00:22] Megu
    Hey, look over there!
[00:24] Megu
    He runs a two-star restaurant in Milan!
[00:27] Soma
    Huh...
[00:27] Takumi
    And over there is
[00:29] Takumi
    a chef who scored sweeping victories at
    various gourmet competitions in Shanghai.
[00:32] Takumi
    And people from New York,
    Lyon, and San Sebastián...
[00:35] Megumi
    It's amazing that we're going to be
    participating alongside these people.
[00:41] Taku
    Despite that, you seem
    quite calm, Tadokoro-san.
[00:45] Soma
    You're on another level today, Tadokoro.
[00:48] Megumi
    I'm real dang nervous.
[00:51] Megumi
    I drunk up the kanji for "person" from
    m'hand so many times since last week,
[00:54] Megumi
    I can't drink no more!
[00:55] Taku
    I'm not sure you should say that
    so gleefully, but all right.
[00:59] Anne
    I thank you all for gathering here today.
[01:02] Soma
    Hey, it's Anne-san.
[01:04] Anne
    From the bottom of my heart,
    I congratulate you on making it to the BLUE.
[01:07] Megumi
    Oh, yeah. Where's Nakiri-san?
[01:09] Taku
    Yeah, I haven't seen her.
[01:11] Anne
    The ones who began the BLUE
    and ran it until today are
[01:15] Anne
    the World Gourmet Organization, or WGO.
[01:20] Anne
    This BLUE, however, will be
    run a little differently.

SIGN    2nd Class Adjudicator
SIGN    1st Class Adjudicator
[01:24] Anne
    And today, our boss,
    who supervises all of us bookmen,
SIGN    Prime Adjudicator
[01:28] Anne
    will explain the contest herself.
[01:32] Mana
    What a delightful evening.
    I am the WGO Bookmaster.
[01:37] Soma
    Whoa...
SIGN    First Gate
SIGN    Second Gate
[01:39] Mana
    This castle consists of three
    gates, then the castle keep,
SIGN    Third Gate
[01:42] Mana
    and finally, the castle tower
    where I currently preside.
SIGN    Castle Keep
SIGN    Castle Tower
[01:48] Mana
    The victor of this BLUE shall
    be decided in the castle tower.
[01:54] Mana
    In order to get to the castle tower,
[01:57] Mana
    you must overcome the culinary
    trial that awaits at each gate.
[02:02] Mana
    Struggle and make your way here, young chefs.
[02:06] Mana
    It appears that all of the
    actors are in their places.
[02:28] Taku
    So they're Noir...
[02:29] Megu
    Suzuki-sensei...
[02:31] Soma

[04:14] Soma
    Well, hello there. If it isn't Saiba-san!
[04:18] Soma
    Glad to see ya again.
[04:20] Soma
    Looks like a great day for revenge.
[04:23] Asahi
    Is it? Well, I wish you luck.
[04:26] Soma
    Hey! Where the hell are you going?
[04:29] Soma
    The trials are just beginning!
[04:32] Asahi
    Sorry, but I get to start
    a bit ahead of you guys.
[04:38] Asahi
    Didn't they tell you?
[04:40] Asahi
    The WGO have seeded some of us
    depending on our accomplishments.
[04:45] Megu
    Seeded?
[04:46] Asahi
    I get a free ride all the
    way to the third gate.
[04:49] Asahi
    Those guys get to go to the second gate.
[04:51] Asahi
    Meaning the ones who get to stay
    here are the weakest of the bunch.
[04:56] Asahi
    If you want revenge against me,
[04:58] Asahi
    you're gonna have to make
    it to the castle tower.
[05:00] Asahi
    You have to at least make it
    through the first gate with ease,
[05:04] Asahi
    or you might make me so sad, I'll actually cry.
[05:07] Asahi
    Well, see ya... Yukihira Soma.
[05:10] Soma
    Just you wait! I'll kick your ass!
[05:14] Erina
    No, I'm going to be the one who defeats him.
[05:18] Soma
    Oh, hey, Nakiri. Where have you been?
[05:21] Megu
    Thank goodness. I hadn't seen you,
    so I was getting a little worried.
[05:25] Taku
    Yes. I'm glad we got to see you
    before the competition began.
[05:29] Anne
    And now, the BLUE shall commence.
[05:31] Anne
    I will now tell you the details
    of the trial at the first gate.

SIGN    Tadokoro Megumi
SIGN    Takumi Aldini
[05:35] Anne
    Please take a look at this.
SIGN    Yukihira Soma
[05:37] Anne
    We will be randomly splitting the
    participants into three groups.
SIGN    Lou Rubes
SIGN    H. Hayworth
[05:41] Taku
    Looks like we're all in different groups.
[05:43] Megu
    Wait. Where's Nakiri-san?
[05:45] Anne
    The current director of Totsuki
    Academy, Miss Nakiri,
[05:48] Anne
    will be facing a trial on her own,
    separate from these three groups.
[05:53] Megu
    Huh?
[05:53] Erina
    Yes. It's just as I figured.
[05:55] Soma
    What? You get special treatment, too?
     No fair, man.
[05:59] Taku
    No. If that were the case,
    they would've seeded her.
[06:03] Taku
    But why would you have to face
    a trial separately from us?
[06:08] Erina
    You three don't need to worry about me.
[06:11] Erina
    Just concentrate on getting
    through to the end.
[06:14] Erina
    Understand?
[06:17] Megu
    Do your best, Nakiri-san!
[06:22] Megu
    I wonder if Nakiri-san will be okay.
[06:24] Taku
    Yes, something about her seemed off.
[06:27] Soma
    Well, whatever.
[06:29] Soma
    Whatever's going on,
    Nakiri won't go down that easily.
[06:33] Megu
    You're right.
[06:34] Taku
    Yes.
[06:34] Anne
    Now, please head to the locations
    designated to your groups.
[06:38] Megu
    Soma-kun, Takumi-kun, do your best out there.
[06:41] Soma
    Yeah. Let's all get through
    this trial and meet again.
[06:44] Taku
    Yukihira, make sure you reach
    the finals. I'll crush you yet again.
[06:49] Soma
    Yeah, I know. I ain't gonna lose.
[07:01] Soma
    So, who're we gonna face for the first trial?
[07:05] Rantabi
    Come on, out of my way.
[07:07] Rantabi
    Ugh, it finally got a little cooler
    when the sun went down.
[07:11] Rantabi
    Tokyo's so unnecessarily hot.
[07:14] Soma
    Looks like some loud lady showed up.
[07:16] Rantabi
    I'm a second-class adjudicator
    with the WGO, Rantabi.
SIGN    WGO Second-Class Adjudicator
        Rantabi
[07:20] Rantabi
    I guess I'll go ahead and explain
    the first trial to you people.
[07:23] Rantabi
    You'd better listen carefully,
    because I'm only saying it once.
[07:26] Rantabi
    The judging here will be extremely simple.
[07:29] Rantabi
    Serve the judge a dish that
    satisfies him, and you pass.
[07:33] Rantabi
    And this group's judge is going to be...
[07:36] Rantabi
    him.
[07:37] Rantabi
    That gentleman is Tokiyama Heigoro.
[07:40] Rantabi
    We had him come all the way from
    the hospital he's staying at.
[07:43] Rantabi
    He's a former Noir member
    who mainly worked in Japan.
[07:47] Soma
    A former Noir member?
[07:49] Soma
    So that guy was an underworld chef.
[07:52] Rantabi
    He started his career with Noir in the
     black markets that sprang up after the war.
SIGN    Udon
[07:57] Rantabi
    He prepared many meals for underworld figures.
[08:01] Rantabi
    He was a thug who took care of
    enemies both in the kitchen and out.
[08:08] Rantabi
    This group's theme is to create
    a last supper that will satisfy him.
[08:15] Heigoro
    I thought all that awaited me was death.
SIGN    Ex-Noir
    Tokiyama Heigoro
[08:19] Hei
    To think I'd have the honor
    of being a judge in the BLUE.
[08:24] Hei
    I'm eternally grateful.
[08:26] Hei
    Many thanks, great Bookmaster.
[08:29] Rantabi
    Hey! That's a stone lantern!
[08:30] Soma
    Uh...
[08:31] Rantabi
    So, wait... Where did I leave off?
[08:34] Rantabi
    Oh, right. You'll only have one
    chance to present your dish.
[08:37] Rantabi
    One you're done cooking,
    enter his camp and serve him.
[08:41] Rantabi
    You can get your ingredients and seasonings
    from that refrigerated truck over there.
[08:45] Rantabi
    You're not allowed to use any
    ingredients you brought with you.
[08:48] Rantabi
    You have two hours.
[08:50] Cook A
    Hang on a second.
[08:51] Cook C
    A last supper? What kind of theme is that?
[08:54] Cook B
    So it's not just a matter of
    who presents the best dish.
[08:57] Rantabi
    I told you that I'd only explain this once.
[08:59] Rantabi
    If he's satisfied, you pass. That's it.
[09:02] Cook A
    The theme is too broad.
[09:04] Cook C
    Everyone would want different
    things for their final meal.
[09:07] Cook B
    And we only get one chance.
[09:09] Rantabi
    By the way, you get five minutes
    to interview him, starting now.
[09:14] Rantabi
    Ask him whatever you'd like.
[09:19] Cook B
    May I ask you a question?
    What's your favorite dish?
[09:22] Cook C
    I'm sure you prefer Japanese cuisine.
[09:24] Cook D
    Please tell me your favorite food.
[09:25] Cook A
    Where are you from?
[09:27] Toki
    Right... That was the time we
    ambushed those greedy bastards
[09:32] Toki
    trying to do business in our black market.
[09:34] Cook B
    No, we're asking you where you were born.
     Do you understand, old man?
[09:38] Toki
    I sure was a healthy babe.
    I would never stop crying.
[09:41] Bunny
    Looks like they're trying hard.
[09:44] Guy
    They're totally desperate! I mean,
    this is the BLUE, after all.
[09:47] Tommy
    Oh?
[09:48] Tommy
    You're not going to ask any questions?
[09:50] Tommy
    You might be able to find
    out his favorite food.
[09:53] Tommy
    Of course, nothing beats the taste of
    home right before you're about to die.
[09:59] Tommy
    I'm missing my mom's homemade scones, myself.
[10:03] Soma
    Yeah, I get that, but there's
    something I don't like about this.
[10:07] Soma
    Like how this whole trial is set up.
[10:10] Cook A
    Again, where were you born?
[10:14] Toki
    Ah, I was born in a farming
    village up in the Tokai region.
[10:19] Toki
    I'm starting to remember the
    miso udon stew and the gohei mochi
[10:24] Toki
    I used to eat with my family and friends.
[10:26] Cook A
    So this trial is all about making
    what the customer asks for.
[10:30] Cook c
    This trial is testing our ability to make
    whatever they want perfectly, on the spot.
[10:35] Cook B
    Nothing is more suitable for his last supper
    than a taste of where he was born.
[10:41] Cook A
    Very well. Please wait a little while.
[10:47] Rantabi
    Okay, Grandpa. Let's get you to your camp.
[10:54] Cook A
    I'm finished! Please, have a taste!
[10:57] Cook A
    My special miso udon stew!
[11:00] Cook A
    I brought out all the flavors
    of everything that's in season!
[11:06] Cook A
    I made sure to cook the noodles a bit longer.
[11:08] Cook A
    I even cut the other ingredients
    smaller than I usually would.
[11:11] Cook A
    That should make it easy for the old man to eat.
SIGN    Fail
[11:17] Toki
    You fail!
SIGN    Fail
[11:19] Toki
    You fail!
SIGN    Fail
[11:21] Toki
    You fail!
[11:23] Cook B
    Impossible! He failed me before
    even having a bite of mine!
[11:26] Cook A
    What's the deal with this trial?
[11:28] Toki
    You pass! You also pass!
SIGN    Pass
[11:33] Guy
    Easy peasy!
SIGN    Pass
[11:36] Bunny
    See you.
[11:38] Cook B
    Noir!
[11:39] Cook A
    They keep passing left and right!
[11:40] Tommy
    Bask in the flames of hell, my six grills...
[11:48] Asahi
    You worried about Yukihira Soma?
[11:51] Erina
    I'm merely waiting for my trial to begin.
[11:54] Erina
    What are you doing here?
[11:55] Asahi
    I was and wandering around
    bored out of my mind,
[11:58] Asahi
    and I happened to run into you, princess.
[12:00] Asahi
    I guess we are fated to be together.
[12:04] Asahi
    This trial is basically a
    free pass for Noir members.
[12:08] Erina
    What?
[12:09] Asahi
    Oh, look. Another one's done.
[12:12] Tommy
    Well, enjoy to your heart's content.
[12:14] Tommy
    My Six-Shot Roast Beef Revolver.
[12:17] Tommy
    Six types of beef, all thick and fatty.
[12:21] Tommy
    I stewed them with salt-pickled cabbage,
     like sauerkraut.
[12:27] Tommy
    Meaty juices and fat, topped
    with some tantalizing tang!
[12:31] Tommy
    Your tongue's gonna go outta control.
[12:34] Erina
    What an outrageous and overdone dish.
[12:37] Erina
    That's no meal to present to an
    old man who's been hospitalized.
[12:40] Asahi
    Ordinarily... yeah.
[12:58] Toki
    You pass!
SIGN    Pass
[13:00] Tommy
    Man, that freaked me out for a sec.
[13:02] Tommy
    Talk about a harsh setup.
[13:04] Tommy
    I almost pissed my pants.
[13:08] Bunny
    Dishes like this are an
    everyday thing in the underworld.
[13:13] Bunny
    Getting asked to make the last supper
    for some guy in an organization
[13:16] Bunny
    who messed up and ended
    up on the chopping block...
[13:18] Guy
    Or making them meals during
    visits to their jail.
[13:22] Asahi
    Presenting something from their
    homeland is perfectly fine.
[13:25] Asahi
    But it's wrong to try to create a half-assed
    dish they think their customer might like.
[13:30] Asahi
    That man's a former Noir member
    who risked his life cooking,
[13:34] Asahi
    so there's only one correct answer:
[13:36] Asahi
    a dish made with everything
    at stake that'll make him feel
[13:38] Asahi
    like he can die after that meal.
[13:40] Asahi
    Those on the outside lack the resolve that
    everyone in the underworld has.
[13:45] Asahi
    That's why those of us in Noir are powerful.
[13:47] Asahi
    Stronger than anyone on the outside, anyway.
[13:52] Tommy
    Too bad for that kid.
[13:54] Tommy
    No one on the outside could
    possibly figure out this request.
[13:58] Soma
    Yeah, I don't like this.
[14:01] Soma
    The last supper? I don't like this one bit!
[14:05] Tommy
    Oh?
[14:08] Soma
    Just you wait, old man.
    The dish I'm about to make
[14:11] Soma
    is gonna slap you across the face!
[14:16] Toki
    You fail, and you fail!
[14:18] Toki
    All of you fail!
[14:19] Toki
    Looks like chefs on the outside
    just don't have what it takes.
[14:24] Toki
    But I've only ever wanted
    food from the underworld.
[14:28] Toki
    It's not like these spoiled brats
    are ever going to satisfy me.
[14:34] Toki
    It doesn't matter how many
    more of them are left.
[14:38] Rantabi
    The next challenger may come in.
[14:41] Toki
    Bet it's just another chef from the outside.
[14:44] Soma
    Wanna say that a little louder, old man?
[14:47] Soma
    I'll show you that it's too early to
    underestimate chefs from the outside!
[14:52] Tommy
    What the...
[14:57] Rantabi
    What?
[14:57] Rantabi
    Monaka?
[14:59] Rantabi
    He seemed like he was about to present
    a dish that was grand and impactful.
[15:03] Rantabi
    I can't figure out if I'm surprised
    or if he's just an idiot.
[15:05] Toki
    Boy, I hope you're not saying
    that all an old man like me needs
[15:09] Toki
    are some Japanese confections
    that'd pair well with some tea.
[15:14] Toki
    I may be old, but I still have enough
    strength to strangle the life outta you.
[15:19] Toki
    I hope you're prepared for the consequences
    if you're just trying to mock me.
[15:24] Soma
    Yeah... If you're that lively,
    you'll have no problem eating my dish.
[15:31] Soma
    Dig in.
[15:39] Toki
    Wh-What in the world?
[15:41] Toki
    All of my cells... my blood and muscles
    are pulsating with a rush of energy!
[15:48] Tommy
    That frail old man is suddenly
    brimming with vitality.
[15:51] Rantabi
    What in the world is this dish?
[15:53] Toki
    It's incredibly rich, and the tartness
    and spiciness pack a punch.
[15:57] Toki
    This is not a confection.
[16:00] Toki
    It's ankimo! Monkfish liver!
[16:03] Soma
    Yup. This is my special dish...
[16:06] Soma
    And I call it the Ankimonaka Guts Sandwich!
SIGN    Ankimo
SIGN    monaka
[16:09] Rantabi
    But there shouldn't have been any monaka
    shells in the refrigerated truck!
[16:13] Soma
    All I needed was a little corn starch
    and some shiratama rice flour.
[16:16] Soma
    Then I used some molds
    to sandwich the batter,
[16:18] Soma
    and I could bake up some
    crunchy wafers in no time.
[16:21] Soma
    Though it wasn't that easy.
[16:23] Soma
    First, I trimmed and
[16:24] Soma
    deveined the monkfish liver,
    then I salted it to remove the fishiness.
[16:29] Soma
    Next, I simmered the liver
[16:31] Soma
    in some broth made from bonito stock,
     sake, soy sauce, and sugar.
[16:35] Soma
    After I strained it to make it nice and soft,
[16:36] Soma
    I mixed in some homemade
    shichimi red pepper blend,
[16:39] Soma
    and then sandwiched that
    between the monaka wafers.
[16:42] Toki
    It's delicious... the light monaka with
    the sticky, thick, monkfish liver.
[16:47] Toki
    Those, along with the mountain yam he
    mixed in, bring out an excellent texture.
[16:52] Toki
    I keep feeling shock waves as the
    flavors spread inside my mouth.
[16:57] Toki
    The umami of the dashi and the saltiness
[16:59] Toki
    of the soy sauce are in perfect harmony,
SIGN    Soy Sauce
[17:01] Toki
    which then brings out the
    tartness and spiciness of
[17:03] Toki
    the homemade shichimi even more.
[17:05] Toki
    But that's not all!
[17:06] Toki
    My appetite just keeps growing!
[17:10] Toki
    What in the world is this dish?!
[17:13] Soma
    This dish is secret menu
    item #44 at Yukihira Diner.
[17:18] Soma
    It's an otoshi appetizer
    made just for our regulars.
[17:21] Tommy
    An otoshi is the first dish
    served at Japanese izakayas.
[17:26] Rantabi
    Just like an appetizer in a course meal,
    it's meant to boost the diner's appetite.
[17:32] Soma
    So what's with this last supper?
[17:34] Soma
    What the hell do you mean, "last"?
[17:36] Soma
    It doesn't matter if you're from
    the outside or the underworld.
[17:38] Soma
    Cooking should be an endless
    horizon for any chef.
[17:44] Soma
    You can keep exploring forever.
[17:47] Soma
    Even if you don't have enough energy
    to cook for yourself anymore...
[17:51] Soma
    Look at those pearly whites!
[17:54] Soma
    You still have plenty of opportunities to
    keep enjoying all the food you want!
[17:58] Soma
    Yet here you are, acting like
    you're gonna die tomorrow.
[18:03] Soma
    I mean, I know everybody dies someday.
[18:06] Soma
    So when you think you've finally
    reached your final moments,
[18:10] Soma
    come on over to my diner.
[18:12] Soma
    And the dish I'll serve you there
[18:16] Soma
    will be your one true last supper.
[18:19] Soma
    This is the first dish that'll
    eventually lead to that.
[18:24] (Flashback) Boss
    I see... So you won't be able to 
    be in the kitchen any longer.
[18:28] (Flashback) Boss
    You've been working hard for our
    organization since the last boss's era.
[18:32] (Flashback) Boss
    I'll make sure you're well taken care of.
[18:35] (Flashback) Boss
    Forget about work and live a long life.
[18:38] Toki
    But you see... All I had in life was cooking.
[18:43] Toki
    If I can't stand in the kitchen
    any longer, I've got nothing left.
[18:48] Toki
    So this wasn't my last supper,
    but my first appetizer.
[18:53] Toki
    Very well. When I feel my time is about to come,
[18:57] Toki
    I'll go to your diner and
    ask for my last supper.
[19:01] Toki
    You may pass through
[19:02] Toki
    the first gate!
[19:05] Rantabi
    Yeah, good work.

[19:09] Soma
    Glad you liked it...
[19:13] Asahi
    I guess he managed to pass that, at least.
[19:15] Asahi
    But he probably didn't notice the
    other pistol the old man had.
[19:22] Toki
    I thought I had no reason to live
    anymore if I couldn't cook.
[19:27] Toki
    That's why I thought after I had the
    opportunity to appear in the BLUE,
[19:32] Toki
    I'd take my own life.
[19:35] Toki
    But I guess I won't have to use this pistol
    loaded with a live round for a while now.
[19:41] Toki
    Yeah...
[19:42] Toki
    I guess I'll wander through the
    endless horizon a bit longer.
[19:54] Soma
    Whew... He just whipped a pistol outta nowhere.
    I actually panicked for a sec.
[20:00] Guy
    Nakiri Erina-dono, we need you to stand by.
[20:03] Erina
    All right.
[20:05] Erina
    It's true that Noir might be something
    greater than we can even fathom,
[20:10] Erina
    but still, it'd be in your best
    interest not to underestimate
[20:14] Erina
    chefs on the outside, like Yukihira-kun.
[20:20] Soma
    All right! I got through the first gate.
[20:23] Soma
    But man, that sure was a weird theme.
[20:26] Soma
    Was it just my group that got a weird one?
[20:28] Taku
    Yukihira!
[20:29] Soma
    Oh, hey, Takumi.
[20:32] Soma
    Uh... The hell?
[20:34] Taku
    I had to make a baby's first solid food.
[20:37] Taku
    I couldn't use any ingredients
    that could trigger any allergies,
[20:40] Taku
    and I still managed to pass,
[20:42] Taku
    but it was difficult to
    make it somehow delicious.
[20:46] Megu
    Soma-kun, Takumi-kun, great job.
[20:49] Soma
    You passed, too, Tadokoro?
[20:50] Megu
    Y-Yeah... My theme was a meal that
    pets and pet owners could both enjoy.
[20:55] Soma
    For real? Yeah, yours was plenty weird, too.
[20:58] Taku
    Even the themes for this BLUE are eccentric.
[21:02] Taku
    Previously, it was just a standard
    gourmet cooking competition.
[21:05] Soma
    Right? It's so weird, it's actually hilarious.
[21:08] Taku
    There's nothing hilarious about this!
[21:10] Megu
    Nakiri-san's not here yet?
[21:12] Soma
    Now that you mention it, I haven't seen her.
[21:22] Erina
    I see... So this is my trial?
[21:26] Erina
    Very well! I'll take on anyone who faces me!
[21:33] Anne
    To all those who have passed,
    the first gate has been opened.
[21:37] Anne
    Please proceed.
[21:40] Anne
    Next up is the second trial.
[21:42] Anne
    Those who were exempted from the
    first trial will join the competition here.
[21:52] Soma
    Huh...
[21:56] Takumi
    That's—
[21:58] Soma
    Ts-Tsukasa-senpai!
