[00:13] Taku
    Grazie!

    Yes!
[00:18] Saito
    I'd say you just proved the saying,
[00:20] Saito
    "Know your enemy, know thyself,
    and you shall not fear a hundred battles,"
[00:23] Saito
    Takumi Aldini.
[00:25] Saito
    You may be my enemy,
    but I applaud your tenacity.
[00:29] Isami
    Bro.
[00:32] Glasses
    That win was definitely worth it!

[02:22] Some
    Yukihira!
[02:24] Guy
    We're counting on you!
[02:25] Buns
    The theme for this match is butter, right?
[02:28] Buns
    I wonder what kind of dish
[02:30] Buns
    uses butter to bring out its full potential.
[02:32] Guy
    Now that you mention it,
    what even is a butter dish?
[02:36] Some
    It's not something you use
    as a main ingredient.
[02:38] Guy
    Maybe they'll sauté white fish
     or scallops with butter?
[02:41] Some
    But would that make butter
    the main ingredient?
[02:44] Buns
    They maybe baked potatoes with butter?
[02:45] Ryoko
    That's too simple.
[02:47] Sec
    I'm sure Yukihira will think of something.
[02:50] Sec
    Butter was one of the items used in
    Erina-sama's Hokkaido seminar, after all.
[02:54] Alice
    Oh, it was?
[02:56] Alice
    What was your lecture like, Erina?
[02:58] Erina
    Well, we covered the full
    Western history of butter,
[03:01] Erina
    as well as its chemical components.
[03:04] Erina
    Yukihira-kun is basically
    a butter professor now.
[03:09] Guy
    I don't have the heart to tell her
    Yukihira slept through most of it.
[03:11] Glasses
    Let's have faith that he
    got something out of it.
[03:15] Haya
    There are actually only a few dishes
    that don't use butter in French cuisine.
[03:19] Kuro
    Butter is used often in northern Europe, too.
[03:21] Kuro
    There are plenty of ways to use it.
[03:23] Alice
    Yes. I wonder what Saito-senpai's
    got up his sleeve.
[03:31] Both
    Huh?
[03:32] Ryoko
    Oranges?!
[03:33] Niku
    He's started juicing a ton of oranges!
[03:42] Erina
    I see. It appears that Saito-san's goal is...
[03:46] Ura
    This makes me even more curious
    to see what he'll come up with!
[03:48] Ura
    Now, let's see what kind of
    preparations Yukihira Soma is doing.
[03:53] Ura
    Is that... mochi?
SIGN    Kirimochi Pack
SIGN    Kirimochi Pack
[03:58] Soma
    Yup! Kirimochi!
[04:00] Soma
    Man, you guys really do have
    all kinds of ingredients.
[04:04] Soma
    I threw some chopped-up kirimochi
    into a pot of heated soy milk,
[04:09] Soma
    stirred it up, and once it all melted,
    I added some pepper and salt
[04:13] Soma
    to make my imitation white sauce.
[04:16] Soma
    It's a great way to use any leftover
    mochi you might have at home.
[04:20] Blonde
    Usually, white sauce is made by
    heating butter and flour into a roux,
[04:25] Blonde
    then diluting it into a thick sauce with milk.
[04:27] Shades
    Wouldn't you usually try to use
    butter in it, since it's the theme?
[04:30] Shades
    Why use mochi?
[04:32] Anne
    We'll find out as soon as we try his dish.
[04:35] Anne
    I believe that's what he's implying.
[04:39] Ura
    Both contestants are now throwing
    their theme ingredient,
[04:42] Ura
    butter, into their frying pans.
[04:45] Guy
    This is torture!
[04:46] Guy
    This butter aroma is going to melt my brain!
[04:49] Buns
    It's spreading all at once!
[04:55] Anne
    Mr. Yukihira is sautéing chicken,
    onions, shrimp, and rice.
[05:01] Shades
    Meanwhile, Saito Somei is letting the
    garlic's aroma settle in for a moment,
[05:05] Shades
    then throwing in some soy sauce,
    squid, and squid liver.
[05:09] Blonde
    He's heightening the
    wonderful aroma of the sea
[05:12] Blonde
    coming from the seafood with
    the rich scent of butter.
[05:15] Ryoko
    This is when the real preparations begin.
[05:17] Sec
    We won't even have a chance
    to look away from this.
[05:24] Saito
    No...
[05:25] Saito
    He's still simmering something
    in that covered pot.
[05:29] Saito
    Since I'm facing him, I can tell.
[05:31] Saito
    This man has not actually
    drawn his blade yet.
[05:35] Saito
    How interesting.
[05:37] Saito
    Let's see how well you can entertain
    me when you finally strike.
[05:41] Saito
    Before I slice you in two, that is.
[05:49] Kuga
    What're you up to?
[05:51] Nene
    I thought I'd get some coffee from
    the café. What are you doing?
[05:55] Kuga
    Well, nothing beats a
    morning bath and massage.
[06:01] Kuga
    Where are Tsukasa-senpai
    and Rindo-senpai?
[06:04] Nene
    They're resting in their rooms.
[06:06] Kuga
    They're still hibernating, huh?
[06:08] Nene
    You're not going to the arena?
[06:11] Kuga
    Well, I did everything I could.
[06:14] Kuga
    Why are you still at the hotel?
[06:17] Kuga
    Oh, I know. You're embarrassed to show
    your face at the arena since you lost?
[06:20] Kuga
    You are so mentally weak.
[06:22] Nene
    I'm fine.
[06:24] Nene
    I feel worse for the person who went
    two-on-one and still lost royally.
[06:30] Kuga
    Well, you probably regret going
    up against Yukihira-chin.
[06:34] Kuga
    He's a first-year I acknowledged, after all.
[06:36] Nene
    I thought he was all talk on that day.
[06:40] Kuga
    Huh?
SIGN    Totsuki Teahouse Culinary Academy
    High School Division
     Opening Ceremony
[06:41] Nene
    The day he transferred in, during the opening
     ceremonies for the high school division.
[06:45] Nene
    I was watching because I was helping with it.
[06:48] (Flashback) Soma
    Uh, I'm Yukihira Soma.
[06:51] (Flashback) Soma
    To be honest,
[06:54] (Flashback) Soma
    this academy's just a stepping stone for me!
[06:56] (Flashback) Soma
    I wasn't expecting to transfer here,
[06:59] (Flashback) Soma
    but I don't plan on losing to folks
    who've never actually served customers.
[07:03] (Flashback) Soma
    Anyway, what I'm getting at is...
[07:05] (Flashback) Soma
    Basically, now that I'm here,
[07:08] (Flashback) Soma
    I'm gonna take the number one spot!
[07:09] Kuga
    That's the most Yukihira-chin
    thing I've ever heard.
[07:11] Kuga
    And he might actually climb to the
    top with this Team Shokugeki.
[07:15] Nene
    You can't be serious. You know
    how strong Saito-senpai is.
[07:22] Saito
    The time has come.
[07:27] Saito
    But he's still not drawing first.
[07:31] Saito
    In that case, I shall go.
[07:36] Saito
    Now, let's see if you'll
    be able to take my strike.
[07:42] Kuro
    Salmon meunière, piping hot and
    steaming with the rich aroma of butter.
[07:47] Haya
    Sautéed squid liver, boldly fragrant
    with the scents of garlic and soy sauce.
[07:51] Alice
    And a gleaming mound of glittery
    salmon roe marinated in soy sauce.
[07:55] Glasses
    It's a gathering of the
    ultimate gourmet ingredients!
[07:58] Ura
    Saito Somei-senpai has created an
    amazing buttered seafood rice bowl!
[08:03] Ryoko
    Uh, Yuki, you're drooling.
[08:05] Buns
    Well, I can't help it!
[08:07] Saito
    Let our blades clash again, Yukihira Soma.
[08:23] Anne
    Even more steam came out as soon
    as I dug in with my chopsticks.
[08:26] Anne
    The anticipation is warming up my body.
[08:33] Anne
    It's coming! The wave is coming!
[08:36] Shades
    This gleaming seafood
[08:38] Shades
    is riding upon a wave of butter...
[08:40] blonde
    ...that's about to come
    crashing down on my tongue!
[08:42] All
    I just can't stop eating it!
[08:45] Shades
    The salmon is perfectly cooked.
[08:47] Shades
    The trace amount of sugar in the
    flour combines with the butter
[08:51] Shades
    in a chemical reaction, creating a
    wonderfully fragrant and perfect meunière!
[08:54] Anne
    The butter is gently
    wrapping the saltiness and
[08:57] Anne
    pleasant bitterness of the squid liver.
[09:00] Blonde
    He added pomegranate seeds and tonburi
    to the roe he marinated in soy sauce.
[09:04] Blonde
    The three separate flavors are brought
    together perfectly by the butter.
[09:07] Erina
    He used mounds of butter, and yet
    the flavor doesn't seem heavy due to
[09:11] Erina
    an important secret in the sushi rice.
[09:13] Erina
    It's special sushi rice made
    with orange and lemon juice
[09:16] Erina
    rather than vinegar.
[09:18] Guy
    Sushi rice with orange and lemon?!
[09:20] Guy
    So that's why he had all those oranges!
[09:22] Glasses
    Of course, if you add a clump of grease,
[09:24] Glasses
    such as butter, to seafood
    that's already greasy,
[09:27] Glasses
    the flavor will be too rich.
[09:28] Shun
    To lighten the greasiness into a
    more pleasing and palatable flavor,
[09:32] Shun
    he chose to use the refreshing
    tang of the oranges.
[09:35] Sec
    Many staple French sauces traditionally
     use butter and oranges together.
[09:40] Sec
    He even paid attention to the rice,
    all to bring out the most in the butter.
[09:44] Haya
    And because of that, he was able to
    bring out the best of the butter's aroma.
[09:47] Kuro
    He really brought it to another level!
[09:50] Isshiki
    It's as though his dish is a samurai who put
[09:53] Isshiki
    his entire spirit into his blade and
    is poised to strike at any moment.
[10:05] Anne
    It's so amazing! It's too amazing!
[10:08] Blonde
    We still have to deliberate!
[10:10] Shades
    But I'd be satisfied if
    I filled up on just this plate!
[10:12] Niku
    As much as I hate to say it,
[10:14] Niku
    I'm sure that seafood rice
    bowl is satisfying as hell.
[10:17] Niku
    It's definitely a complete
    dish in a single bowl.
[10:20] Buns
    I thought this theme would give
    Yukihira the advantage, but...
[10:24] Ryoko
    No one expected he'd be able to bring
    butter to that level with a seafood bowl.
[10:28] Isami
    That ingredient usually has
    nothing to do with sushi!
[10:31] Saito
    My duty lies in sushi.
[10:33] Saito
    That's why I was able to
    use butter at this level.
[10:38] Saito
    People believe that the fish
    makes or breaks the sushi,
[10:42] Saito
    but that's not the only important factor.
[10:45] Saito
    The true stars of the dish are the
    supporting actors in the shadows,
[10:48] Saito
    the vinegar and salt. Only when
    they are in perfect balance
[10:51] Saito
    can the fish, the main ingredient,
    show its true power.
[10:53] Saito
    It's not just with sushi.
[10:55] Saito
    With any dish, the chef must
    know the best base ingredients
[10:58] Saito
    and the best way to use them to make
    the blade known as "fish" gleam.
[11:02] Saito
    Which means that all base
    ingredients are within my field...
[11:05] Saito
    No, they all lie within reach of me.
[11:09] Kuro
    He's not just talking out his ass, either.
[11:11] Kuro
    No matter how delicious
    the fish itself might be,
[11:14] Kuro
    depending on how you use the base ingredients,
     the whole dish could be ruined.
[11:18] Hayama
    Where the hell does his
    obsession with fish come from?
[11:22] Isshiki
    Saito-senpai's family ran
    a small shop, but it thrived,
SIGN    Saito Sushi
[11:27] Isshiki
    loved by its regulars.
[11:29] (Flashback) Saito
    Mom! I made the deliveries!
[11:31] (Flashback) Mom
    Thanks. I'm sorry to make you
    do this all the time, Somei.
[11:35] Samurai

[11:35] (Flashback) Guy
    Can I get a kohada?
[11:36] (Flashback) mom
    Sure thing!
[11:37] (Flashback) Isshiki
    His mother was his pride.
[11:41] (Flashback) Isshiki
    She ran the restaurant and
    raised her son on her own,
[11:44] (Flashback) Isshiki
    and even managed to get him into Totsuki.
[11:47] Saito
    I'm gonna be an amazing sushi
    chef like my mom one day.
[11:51] Saito
    Then we're gonna run this shop together.
[11:54] (Flashback) Mom
    Listen to this, Somei!
SIGN    Saito Sushi
[11:56] (Flashback) Mom
    Your mom's going to train at Shigarami Sushi!
[12:00] (Flashback) Saito
    Huh? That's a famous restaurant!
[12:02] (Flashback) Saito
    That's awesome, Mom!
[12:03] (Flashback) Mom
    I'm going to have to close
    up this shop for a while,
[12:06] (Flashback) Mom
    but I'll be able to make even
    better sushi when I come back!
[12:11] Isshiki
    But what awaited his mother at her
    training were harsh traditions and customs.
SIGN    Shigarami Sushi
[12:18] Isshiki
    The old-fashioned way of thinking where women
[12:20] Isshiki
    were not allowed to set foot in the kitchen...
[12:22] Isshiki
    She wasn't even allowed to touch the rice,
[12:24] Isshiki
    let alone the fish, and was
    forced to do chores.
[12:26] Isshiki
    She continued to work from morning to night,
[12:29] Isshiki
    but eventually, she reached her limit.
[12:33] (Flashback) Mom
    I'm so sorry, Somei.
[12:35] Tv
    Mother, it won't be much longer.
[12:38] Tv
    I will make a name for myself with
    my blade to support our household.
[12:44] Somei
    Mom, I'll take over our shop.
[12:50] (Flashback) Guy
    Look at that. There really is
    a kid standing in the kitchen.
[12:54] (Flashback) Somei
    Well, hello there, gentlemen
    from Shigarami Sushi.
[12:57] (Flashback) Guy
    At least he looks the part.
[12:59] (Flashback) Guy
    As if a kid like you could
    actually make decent sushi.

    Would you like to try some, then?

[13:34] Anne
    It's true that this butter seafood rice
    bowl has his style dwelling within it.
[13:39] Shades
    If the fish is his blade,
    the butter is its sheath.
[13:43] Blonde
    This is essentially swordplay on a dish.
[13:45] Blonde
    Any who taste it and stand before
    its lightning strike slash...
[13:49] All
    ...will fall!
[13:52] Ura
    Amazing, Saito-senpai!
[13:54] Ura
    He managed to split all the
    judges in two with one blow!
[13:58] Shun
    The enemy managed to bring out
    the full potential of the butter.
[14:01] Glasses
    Will Yukihira be able to win?
[14:05] Soma
    Well, I might actually be in trouble.
[14:07] Buns
    Wait, what did you say?
[14:09] Alice
    Wait, wait. What's wrong, Yukihira-kun?
[14:12] Niku
    That doesn't sound like you at all!
[14:14] Saito
    There are some things that only opponents
    facing each other can understand.
[14:19] Saito
    You already see it, don't you, Yukihira Soma?
[14:25] Saito
    You see your blade being shattered by me.
[14:31] Soma
    Man, your cooking really is amazing.
[14:34] Soma
    So why the heck did someone like you
    side with the Azami Administration?
[14:41] Azami
    A samurai's most important
    duty is to protect the weak.
[14:47] (Flashback) Azami
    We can never have another fall
    victim like your mother did.
[14:52] Saito
    The reason I joined this revolution
[14:55] Saito
    is to follow bushido and
    to protect the weak.
[14:59] Soma
    I see. But in that case,
    we're in the same boat.
[15:04] Soma
    And for the sake of my ideal cooking world,
[15:07] Soma
    I'm gonna use this dish to face off with you.
[15:11] Soma
    All right, order's up!
[15:16] Soma
    Dig in!
[15:18] Soma
    I call it Yukihira-Style
    Toasted-Butter Pilaf Inari Sushi!
SIGN    Yukihira-Style
SIGN    Toasted-Butter Pilaf Inari Sushi
[15:24] Ryoko
    He must've had abura-age pockets
    simmering in that pot.
[15:27] Buns
    Those inari sushi have pilaf in
    them rather than sushi rice?
[15:32] Blonde
    The impact is intense!
[15:34] Shades
    I'm instantly hungry again!
[15:35] Anne
    The aroma makes me want to melt!
[15:37] Niku
    Usually, with inari sushi, it's important
[15:39] Niku
    to have the sweet abura-age balanced
    with the mild flavor of the sushi rice.
[15:43] Niku
    No matter how you look at it,
    the butter pilaf is going to make it heavy.
[15:46] Saito
    Just bringing out the butter is not
    enough for our theme in this match.
[15:51] Saito
    So let us see the answer
    you came up with.
[15:58] Anne
    The butter that seeped into the abura-age
[16:00] Anne
    keeps spreading through
    my mouth every time I chew!
[16:04] Anne
    Even my mind is being drenched in butter!
[16:08] Shades
    The abura-age is so juicy, and yet
    the pilaf inside is so delicate.
[16:14] Blonde
    The flavors don't overwhelm each other.
[16:15] Blonde
    The umami of the ingredients
    keeps flowing like a geyser.
[16:19] All
    They work together so well!
[16:21] Soma
    Well, first, I sautéed the
    rice without washing it.
[16:25] Soma
    That's the key when you're making pilaf.
[16:27] Soma
    Then I thoroughly rinsed the abura-age
    with hot water to remove the extra oil.
[16:31] Soma
    But the most important part
    of my dish is my special
[16:34] Soma
    mochi white sauce made
    from soy milk and kirimochi.
[16:37] Shades
    I see.
[16:39] Shades
    Conventional white sauce made with
    flour and butter would overwhelm this dish.
[16:43] Blonde
    There is a rich texture,
    but it doesn't linger.
[16:46] Blonde
    The light flavor of this mochi
    white sauce was absolutely essential.
[16:51] Soma
    Then I sprinkled a blend of several
    cheeses on top of everything
[16:54] Soma
    and toasted them in the oven.
[16:56] Anne
    Because of that, the saltiness
    and mellowness are preserved.
[17:02] Soma
    Basically, I shoved all the tasty things
    I could think of into this dish,
[17:06] Soma
    and pushed the rich, savory
    flavors as hard as I could.
[17:10] Anne
    Some ingredients meld with the butter's
    richness into mellow deliciousness,
[17:13] Anne
    and other ingredients have become
    richer because of the butter.
[17:16] Anne
    There is an immense amount of work put into
[17:18] Anne
    every one of these small inari sushi pockets.
[17:22] Blonde
    The mochi white sauce subdues the greasiness,
[17:25] Blonde
    so each of the flavors reach
    their peak in harmony.
[17:29] Shades
    This is a huge contrast with
    Saito Somei's single heavy strike.
[17:34] Shades
    This blade is a continuous barrage of flavor!
[17:37] Anne
    It's just too delicious for me to keep quiet.
[17:41] Anne
    Ah... Anne...
[17:43] Anne
    Anne, Anne, Anne, Anne, Anne, Anne!
[17:47] Both
    Anne!
[17:49] Both
    Anne...
[17:52] Saito
    Such skill...
[17:53] Saito
    But this swing was not a single blade.
[17:56] Saito
    How did you...
[17:59] Saito
    How did you become this strong?!
[18:01] Soma
    Because I knew I was gonna be in trouble.
[18:06] (Flashback) Soma
    Well, I might actually be in trouble.
[18:08] Soma
    I knew I couldn't defeat you
    with just a single blade.
[18:14] Soma
    Mock Shokugeki?
[18:15] (Flashback) Megu
    What do you mean, Mimasaka-kun?
[18:18] (Flashback) Mima
    As you know, I've completed a trace
    of all of the enemy Elite Ten members.
[18:24] (Flashback) Mima
    So I can stand in as the
    opponents you'll be facing,
[18:28] (Flashback) Mima
    and we can do a mock Shokugeki.
[18:30] (Flashback) Taku
    But are you going to be okay, Mimasaka?
[18:32] (Flashback) Taku
    I'm sure being three of them
    will be hard on your body.
[18:35] (Flashback) Mima
    This is really all I can do
    for you guys, since I lost.
[18:40] (Flashback) Mima
    Let me be your sandbag.
[18:42] (Flashback) Soma
    All right, well, if you're gonna
    insist that much, let's do it.
[18:46] (Flashback) Soma
    Let's begin our training!
[18:47] (Flashback) Taku
    Yeah.
[18:48] (Flashback) Megu
    Right!
[18:49] (Flashback) Mima
    All I need is money and
    everything will go my way.
SIGN    Anger Anger Anger Anger Anger Anger
[18:49] (Flashback) Taku
    Anger, anger, anger, anger, anger...
[18:53] (Flashback) Mima
    Morals? What are those?
    Do they taste good, Elder Aldini?
[18:57] (Flashback) Mima
    Megu-myan, Megu-myan, Megu-myan, myan!
[19:04] Soma
    It's no use.
[19:08] Soma
    No matter how many times I try,
    I can't win against his strike.
[19:14] Soma
    If I'm going to win,
[19:16] Soma
    I'm gonna need...
[19:17] Blonde
    This cheese blend balances out
    the dish with its saltiness.
[19:21] Shades
    I see.
[19:22] Shades
    Aldini must have put this together so
    it'd go along with these inari sushi.
[19:26] Anne
    Oh, I finally understand! The reason
    this dish is so rich, but not overwhelming!
[19:32] Anne
    It's Miss Tadokoro Megumi's apple butter!
[19:34] Anne
    Its refreshing taste cuts
    back on the greasiness.
[19:37] Taku
    Yes.
[19:38] Megu
    Soma-kun...
[19:39] Saito
    I see... So this is a true Team Shokugeki.
[19:46] Saito
    But...
[19:48] Saito
    This cannot be the work of just three!
[19:59] Soma
    Takumi's ultimate cheese blend,
[20:02] Soma
    a Hayama-style aroma bomb,
[20:05] Soma
    Kurokiba's shrimp's umami...
[20:10] Soma
    Tadokoro's apple butter!
[20:14] Saito
    He's not even bothering with swords anymore!
[20:16] Soma
    Yoshino's super-secret ultra-savory
    masterpiece chicken broth!
[20:20] Saito
    There must be some limit to
    not caring about tactics!
[20:24] Saito
    I spent all this time polishing
    my blade so that I would not lose,
[20:28] Saito
    yet you don't care how many blades
    you break in order to win.
[20:33] Saito
    So you are also truly a warrior of bushido.
[20:36] Soma
    Nah, I'm just a plain ol' first-year kid.
[20:38] Soma
    But I've faced off with a lot of people.
[20:42] Soma
    That might be how I get all these ideas.
[20:46] Soma
    I'm pretty sure everything
    I've learned from everyone
[20:48] Soma
    at Totsuki is right here backing me up.
[20:51] (Flashback) Soma
    To be honest,
[20:54] (Flashback) Soma
    this academy's just a stepping stone for me!
[20:56] Soma
    I'm a Totsuki Academy High School first-year,
[20:59] Soma
    and a member of the 92nd graduating class.
[21:01] Soma
    I'm Yukihira Soma!
[21:11] Isshi
    That dish isn't just a result of his training.
[21:14] Isshi
    It's a culmination of all the days
    he's spent here ever since
[21:17] Isshi
    the first moment he stepped
    into Totsuki Academy.
[21:19] Saito
    Because of the helplessness
    I felt with my mother,
[21:22] Saito
    I thought that the weak should be protected.
[21:26] Saito
    I thought that was why I became stronger.
[21:29] Saito
    But Yukihira doesn't label other
    chefs as weak or strong.
[21:33] Saito
    He learned from every blade he has ever faced.
[21:37] Saito
    You are the one who has truly
    walked the path of bushido.
[21:40] Saito
    I have lost.
[21:42] Shades
    It is unanimous.
[21:43] Blonde
    The winner is...
