[00:03] Mom
    This castle consists of three
    gates, then the castle keep,
SIGN    Third Gate
[00:06] Mom
    and finally, the castle tower
    where I currently preside.
SIGN    Castle Keep
SIGN    Castle Tower
[00:11] Mom
    The victor of this BLUE shall
    be decided in the castle tower.
[00:17] Rantabi
    We're opening up the second gate!
[00:26] Mom
    I'm going to change the rules
    of engagement at this gate.
[00:32] Mom
    You three Noir members,
[00:33] Mom
    show me your true potential
    right here and now.
[00:50] Chef K
    Uh, what?
[00:52] Chef H
    Why Noir?
[00:53] Chef J
    I thought the BLUE was for normal chefs.
[00:55] Mom
    The goal of the BLUE is to
    have top young chefs compete,
[01:00] Mom
    but I have my own personal reasons
    for holding this particular tournament.
[01:07] Megumi
    Personal reasons?
[01:09] Mom
    To find someone who can create a dish
    this world has yet to even fathom.
[01:15] Mom
    I've tasted everything there is
    to taste throughout the world.
[01:18] Mom
    There's nothing left but a dead end.
[01:20] Mom
    There's no one left on the
    outside who can grant my wish.
[01:24] Takumi
    That's why Noir is here?
[01:26] Mom
    My expectations are only high for
    the underworld chefs in this event.
[01:31] Chef K
    I fight on the front lines of cuisine.
[01:34] Chef K
    What's the underworld got on me?
[01:36] Sarge
    And I cringe at the sight of
    you chefs on the outside.
[01:41] Niku
    Here's the beef tenderloin you ordered.
[01:43] Tran
    Good.
[01:44] Sarge
    So you want me to make a
    gourmet dish with that meat?
[01:47] Sarge
    Very well!
[01:52] Chef
    What's her deal? She's just
    preparing it normally.
[01:55] Chef K
    And she's saying she's better than us?
[01:57] Soma
    Huh...
[01:58] Niku
    But she's being extremely
    precise with the heat.
[02:01] Niku
    She's using the umami of
    the juices to its fullest.
[02:05] Soma
    Nikumi?!
[02:06] Niku
    Shh!
[02:08] Megu
    Mito-san?
[02:09] Taku
    What are you doing here?
[02:10] Niku
    The Mito Group got an order for some meat.
[02:13] Niku
    They don't allow an audience at
    the BLUE until the main event,
[02:16] Niku
    but I figured I'd be able to check
    it out as someone from the industry.
[02:19] Megu
    I see.
[02:21] Niku
    And I have some information on Noir...
[02:25] Niku
    From Eizan-senpai.
[02:26] Taku
    From Eizan-senpai?
SIGN    Totsuki Elite Ten Eighth Seat
    Eizan Etsuya
[02:28] Niku
    Yeah. Apparently he got this
    info from his own network.
[02:32] Soma
    For real?! Holy shit!
[02:34] Soma
    It's like one of those spy movies!
[02:35] All
    Shh!
[02:36] Tsuka
    She's making her move.
[02:37] Sarge
    Now, let's get this party started.
[02:42] K
    She's using that to cook?
[02:44] J
    She's bluffing.
[02:45] H
    There's no way she could use a chainsaw.
[02:48] Sarge
    Don't you dare call this a chainsaw.
[02:50] Sarge
    This is my own personal carving knife.
[02:53] Tsuka
    I'd call that a weapon rather than a knife.
[02:57] Taku
    What does she plan to do with that thing?
[03:02] H
    Why is she damaging the meat
    she cooked to perfection?
[03:06] K
    She's ruining the quality.
[03:09] Meg
    No... She's not harming it. She's...

[04:48] Sarge
    Go on, give it a taste.
[04:50] Sarge
    A dish created by someone
    from the underworld.
[04:53] K
    Very well.
[05:01] K
    What?!
[05:02] K
    It's so unbelievably juicy!
[05:04] K
    It just melts on my tongue, and the
    deliciousness bursts throughout my body!
[05:10] J
    The more I chew, the more I can taste
    the sweet saltiness and flavor!
[05:15] H
    This isn't even meat anymore!
[05:17] H
    To think she was able to make
    it taste this delicious!
[05:19] Megu
    I knew it. There must be some kind
    of secret to that chainsaw knife.
[05:24] Tsuka
    Correct. It actually seasons the meat.
[05:27] Tsuka
    She applied seasoning spices
    to each of the claws on her blade.
[05:32] Tsuka
    As the blades ripped apart the meat,
[05:35] Tsuka
    those spices entered
    the very fibers of the meat.
[05:38] Tsuka
    She managed to create something
    delicious on multiple levels
[05:41] Tsuka
    that couldn't be made with normal methods.
[05:45] Old
    There's no way she can make something so
    delicious by doing something that absurd!
[05:52] Old
    Impossible!
[05:53] Old
    This deliciousness is on a specialty's level!
[05:59] Tran
    This is the real deal.
SIGN    Tranchant
SIGN    Maturite
SIGN    Essor
[06:01] Tran
    Had she missed by even a few millimeters,
[06:03] Tran
    the meat's fibers would have been torn apart,
[06:05] Tran
    destroying the meat's juices and texture.
[06:08] Matur
    The technique she used on this dish
    was violent, yet extremely light scoring.
[06:14] Matur
    I can't fathom how she could've
    delicately applied the cuts like this.
[06:18] Essor
    This is indeed an amazing
    dish that only she could make.
[06:23] Sarge
    Answer me!
[06:24] Sarge
    Could filth like you season something better?
[06:29] K
    This cooking method goes beyond
    the history of gourmet...
[06:33] H
    We don't stand a chance!
[06:36] J
    It's no use... It's too delicious!
[06:38] All
    She's shredding everything
    away as she clobbers us!
[06:41] All
    Our pride, our techniques, and our minds!
[06:48] Niku
    Her name is Sarge.
[06:50] Niku
    She's a master at using her chain carving knife.
[06:53] Niku
    She blows the minds of anyone who
    eats her dishes, and destroys them.

    She's the master of the Armed Dish!

[07:09] Mom
    If you are confident enough, speak now.
[07:11] Mom
    Otherwise, you have no right to
    set foot within the castle keep.
[07:20] Sarge
    Asahi-sama...
[07:21] Clown
    You all look so down!
[07:25] Clown
    We'll need to turn those frowns
    upside down with my dish!
[07:29] Clown
    First, we trim the meat! Chop, chop, chop!
[07:32] Clown
    Speckle, speckle, salt the
    meat, speckle-di-doo!
[07:41] Niku
    Special pots that become a ball
    when you put them together.
[07:44] Niku
    All the spinning creates centrifugal force,
[07:46] Niku
    and there's a heating element
    inside that grills the meat.
[07:49] Niku
    Together, those forces keep the
    meat under a set pressure,
[07:53] Niku
    heating it equally throughout.
[07:55] Niku
    And because of that,
[07:57] Niku
    the meat ends up far more tender than any
    standard pressure cooker could make it.
[08:03] Clown
    Make sure you good boys and
    girls play nice when eating.
[08:07] Megu
    Wow...
[08:08] Soma
    I'm sure it's delicious.

    Now, become even more delicious!
    I'll torment you even more and more and more!

    She's slicing the meat so thin,

    No matter the place, no matter the situation,

    no matter the ingredients,

    they can turn their dish into

[10:14] Asahi
    Think you guys on the outside
    can reach that level?
[10:18] Tsuka
    In other words, we just need
    to make a specialty, right?
[10:24] Tsuka
    In that case...
[10:25] Tsuka
    I'll face my dish with everything I have.

    I'll let you join me.
[15:02] (Flashback) Asahi

    You have three hours.
[15:51] Ran
    Now... Begin cooking!
[15:57] Old
    They're waiting...
[15:58] Guy
    What's going on over there?
[16:00] Sarge
    Behold, Yukihira Soma.
[16:03] Sarge
    I will now show you the true
    meaning of the Armed Dish!
[16:07] Meg
    She couldn't possibly...
[16:08] Niku
    She put egg whites and granulated
    sugar in a bowl and...
[16:10] Both
    ...shoved that into it!
[16:12] Taku
    Amazing... She's somehow able to make
    such a delicate meringue with that thing.
[16:17] Mat
    That blade is slightly different from the
    one she used to prepare the meat dish.
[16:22] Mat
    It appears to have intricate attachments
    that she changes depending on the dish.
[16:27] Ess
    And that's how she was able to create
[16:30] Ess
    such fine foam and beautiful meringue.
[16:32] Tran
    One wrong move, and the bowl could go flying,
[16:37] Tran
    but she has complete control
    as she prepares her dish.
[16:39] Tsuka
    To think she can use her chain carving
    knife when baking a cake, too...
[16:46] Niku
    A sledgehammer?!
[16:52] Megu
    She completely shattered that
    bar of chocolate in an instant!
[16:55] Lady
    What a dangerous dish!
[16:57] Guy
    How exciting!
[16:59] Guy
    Show us more, Sergeant Sarge!
[17:02] Sarge
    Just shut up and watch, audience.
[17:04] Sarge
    Here come the final touches.
[17:07] Old
    That's clearly a bomb detonator.
    Is she going to set something off?
[17:10] Guy
    Look!
[17:12] Guy
    There are some thin sheets resembling
    pastry sheets in the oven.
[17:15] Old
    Is it some kind of oven that's been
    specially modified to bake that cake?
[17:20] Sarge
    If you want to keep your
    eardrums, cover your ears!
[17:31] Niku
    What the hell?!
[17:32] Megu
    But something smells really nice.
[17:34] Taku
    Yes. The sweet aroma of baked
    pastry sheets has filled the arena.
[17:39] Megu
    Wait, Soma-kun's gone.
[17:41] Niku
    Don't tell me he got blown away by the blast!
[17:43] Tsuka
    Yukihira stepped out a moment ago.
[17:46] All
    What?!
[17:47] Tsuka
    Oh, he's back.
[17:48] Megu
    Wait.
[17:50] Niku
    Did he go shopping at the convenience store?
[17:52] Taku
    While he was wasting time doing that,
    his opponent has already...
[17:56] Sarge
    It's done.
[17:59] Guy
    It's impossible to think something so
    beautiful came from something so chaotic.
[18:02] Old
    Such an exquisite cake.
[18:05] Old
    The young maiden within me is so excited.
[18:09] Sarge
    Now, eat!
[18:12] Tran
    It's so colorful. I'm sure
    this will liven any party.
[18:19] Ran
    The judges will now taste the dish.
[18:22] Tran
    The mouthfeel is soft as snow.
[18:25] Tran
    The crunchy pastry sheets baked
    in the special explosion oven
[18:29] Tran
    have been stacked like a mille feuille.
[18:32] Mat
    As soon as you take a bite, the sheets
    melt in your mouth along with the sweet,
[18:37] Mat
    delicate meringue created with the chainsaw.
[18:41] Esso
    What's going on? Suddenly, there's a
    rich sweetness exploding in my mouth.
[18:45] Sarge
    I call them cluster chocolate chips.
[18:48] Sarge
    I mixed chocolate, almond powder,
[18:50] Sarge
    and mint together, then froze
    it to give it extra crunch.
[18:54] Sarge
    Then, after shattering it
    with my sledgehammer,
[18:56] Sarge
    I mixed it with the pastry sheets and exploded
    them at the perfect temperature.
[19:01] Sarge
    Because of that, the pastry sheets
    shielded the chocolate from the blast,
[19:05] Sarge
    turning the consistency and texture into
    baked chocolate rather than melting it.
[19:08] Sarge
    Once you eat it, it causes
    continuous blasts in your mouth,
[19:12] Sarge
    just like a cluster bomb.
[19:15] Sarge
    That is my Cluster Bomb Cake
[19:17] Sarge
    in its entirety!
[19:19] Mat
    The exquisite meringue
    made with the chainsaw...
[19:22] Ess
    The explosively delicious pastry sheets...
[19:25] Tran
    And the cluster chocolate chips
    created with the sledgehammer...
[19:29] All
    This is truly an Armed Dish.
[19:32] Esso
    Give me a present, Santa-san!
[19:36] Sarge
    New Merry Happy.
[19:40] Three
    This party's so perfect,
    it's like New Year's, Christmas,
[19:44] Three
    and our birthdays all rolled into one!
[19:47] Sarge
    Now it's your turn, Yukihira Soma.
[19:51] Sarge
    Just try to make something
    as delicious as this.
[19:55] Soma
    That chainsaw of yours is super cool.
[19:58] Soma
    But you see, I have a chainsaw, too.
[20:03] Niku
    Chainsaw?
[20:04] Megu
    Soma-kun has one, too?
[20:06] Taku
    No way...
[20:07] Soma
    It's right here.
[20:08] Sarge
    What... the hell?
[20:11] Niku
    That's a chainsaw?
[20:13] Tsuka
    I'm pretty sure that's a wooden ice cream spoon.
[20:17] Sarge
    You dare mock me?!
[20:20] Sarge
    You dare face my Armed Dish with that?!
[20:24] Soma
    Nah, I'm not mocking you or anything.
[20:27] Soma
    It's not just this wooden spoon. All this
    stuff I bought at the convenience store
[20:31] Soma
    should act as the deciding
    factor in my dish.
[20:34] Soma
    I hope the party guests don't
    mind waiting just a little longer.
[20:37] Soma
    I'll make you a kick-ass cake
    that's perfect for summer.
[20:41] Sarge
    He's clearly fooling around.
    What is he thinking?
[20:45] Soma
    First, I need some cream that can
    go up against that meringue.
SIGN    Soy Milk
SIGN    Silken Tofu
[20:49] Soma
    And I'm gonna make it with this!
[20:51] Niku
    Tofu and soy milk...
[20:52] Niku
    He's mixing them together with
    bananas and cocoa powder.
[20:57] Taku
    He'll definitely be able to make
    a unique cream with that.
[20:59] Soma
    And as for the batter, I'll be using this!
[21:02] Niku
    Japanese yam?!
[21:05] Sarge
    He's mixing grated yam into the cake batter?
[21:12] Old
    I smell a sizzling, robust scent.
[21:15] Guy
    It's charcoal! He's baking the
    cake batter with charcoal!
[21:19] Mat
    It's true that the far infrared
    rays from the charcoal
[21:22] Mat
    should bake a nice and fluffy cake.
[21:25] Ess
    I'm not sure how Japanese cooking
    methods will work with cake-making...
[21:29] Tsuka
    Not bad, Yukihira.
[21:31] Tsuka
    He's perfecting his dish one step at a time.
[21:34] Niku
    I've seen him work so many times...
[21:36] Megu
    It's such a difficult task,
    but he looks so happy and lively.
[21:39] Taku
    That's our Yukihira!
[21:44] Soma
    It's done.
[21:49] Asahi
    Oh?
[21:51] Tsuka
    Wow...
[21:54] All
    Firework shells?!
[21:57] Soma
    This is the Yukihira-Style
    Midsummer Christmas Cake!
SIGN    Food Wars
SIGN    The Fifth Plate
SIGN    Crossed Knives
[23:35] Asahi
    Cross! Cross! Cross!
[23:37] Tsuka
    Black vinegar (kurosu)?
[23:38] Ran
    No!
