[03:18] Sarge     This match is a team match. [03:21] Sarge     I'm sure his friends just did it on their own. [03:24] Don     Well, I guess I should call my supporters. [03:29] Don     Girls, come on out! [03:36] Girls     Hi! Sorry to keep you waiting! [03:40] Guy     Whoa, a whole herd of 'em showed up. [03:42] Girl     Say, Mama! Can I go shopping     in Ginza tomorrow? [03:46] Girl     I want some cosmetics. [03:47] Girl     Oh, my. You'll be even prettier. [03:51] Don     Oh, I'm sorry they're so rowdy.

Shape up!     It's time to get to work. [04:18] Girls     Okay, Mama! [04:20] Don     Now shake that shaker with your body and soul! [04:25] Girls     Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes... [04:29] Girls     Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes... [04:33] Sarge     Don Kama... He's as coordinated as ever. [04:36] Sarge     He's more suited to the theme     of teamwork than anyone. [04:40] Old     What are they trying to do? [04:41] Old     This isn't a bar. This is a kitchen. [04:44] Glasses     Those shakers... [04:46] Don     The first stage of prep is complete. [04:49] Don     I'm counting on you girls     to do the next step. [04:52] Girl     Of course, Mama. Leave it to us. [04:54] Old     Don't tell me they're trying to     make a sauce with those shakers! [04:59] Don     What's this? Your wittle brother's not here yet. [05:03] Don     Do you think he hung you out to dry?     Does that mean I win by default, then? [05:10] Don     Oh, my. That means my amuse-bouche     is just going to go to waste. [05:14] Megu     Wha?! How the heck did this happen?! [05:18] Sarge     This is a rather difficult theme. [05:21] Sarge     An amuse-bouche is a small dish     served before an appetizer. [05:25] Sarge     It's normally prepared as a simple little dish. [05:28] Sarge     But they want it to be something far     more complicated, created as a team. [05:33] Asahi     True. Usually, it'd be hard     to call that an amuse-bouche. [05:38] Asahi     I wonder what we're going to see from them. [05:41] Girls     Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes... [05:48] Megu     What should we do? [05:49] Don     Please, enjoy. [05:52] His     Is this a verrine? [05:54] Glasses     A verrine is a kind of small glass. [05:58] Old     Thus, any savory or sweet dish served     in one is also called a verrine. [06:03] Sarge     It's particularly well-suited to     layered mousses and sauces, [06:06] Sarge     to show off their beautiful visuals. [06:08] Sarge     But their verrine is... [06:11] Ran     How are there so many layers?! [06:13] Dyna     There are almost a hundred colors     stacked up in these three glasses! [06:18] Don     Remember, this is just an amuse-bouche. [06:21] Don     I'd like you to enjoy these quickly. [06:23] Don     This glass within ten seconds! [06:25] Don     This next glass within twenty seconds! [06:28] Don     And I recommend you finish the     third one within thirty seconds. [06:32] His     What? How did they even make these? [06:36] Dyn     It's so beautiful... [06:38] Dyn     It retains its shape even when     you scoop it with a spoon. [06:40] Dyn     The layers are all still intact! [06:47] His     It's raining fruits! [06:49] Ran     A concerto of fish and herbs! [06:52] Dyna     And finally, fragrant lamb mousse     and root vegetables in harmony! [06:57] His     This vibrant and colorful display... [07:00] Ran     Each glass is making its presence known! [07:04] Dyna     Raw sea urchin and smoked scallop mousse... [07:06] Dyna     The perfect accenting layer is always     slipped into the perfect spot. [07:09] His     It's like this richly colored show of mousses... [07:12] Girls     ...is dancing in our mouths! [07:16] Don     Yes. I call this dish Onee's Greedy     Little Girl Three-Verrine Set. [07:21] Don     It manages to charm anyone who eats it. [07:24] His     It's like I'm experiencing     a glimpse of a show! [07:26] His     The flavors dance and twirl with both charm     and muscle in a richly seductive show! [07:31] Ran     And how is this even possible?! [07:33] Ran     It was so impactful, but as soon as     I swallowed, it was so light! [07:38] Don     The secret lies within this shaker! [07:42] His     The inside walls are covered     with deep grooves! [07:45] Don     Yes. With every shake,     this shaker produces delicate foam. [07:51] Dyn     That thick, smooth foam coats the tongue     and then melts away in your mouth. [07:55] Ran     There's impact and satisfaction... [07:57] Ran     But the aftertaste... [07:59] Ran     is oh-so-fluffy! [08:02] Don     Yes! We can't have you getting     full from just the amuse-bouche! [08:08] Don     That's why I wanted you to taste it     immediately, before the foam melted away, [08:12] Don     while these verrines were     at their most delicious. [08:16] Dyn     They've managed to flawlessly     complete the Bookmaster's task! [08:20] Ran     An amuse-bouche that surpasses the     very concept of an amuse-bouche! [08:23] His     They managed to make verrines     that could never be created in such [08:27] His     a short amount of time a reality! [08:30] His     With absolutely perfect teamwork! [08:33] Don     So... how could you possibly beat my teamwork? [08:37] Don     Aldini-kyun! [08:40] Don     Aw, I'm so sowwy. [08:42] Don     I forgot you didn't even have any     supporters to teamwork with! [08:46] Don     Though I don't think you would've stood a chance [08:48] Don     even if your wittle brother was here. [08:50] Don     Nothing can defeat the     sauce we create together. [08:53] Don     There's no way you could     possibly beat our teamwork. [08:57] Girls     No way! No way! [08:59] Girls     No way! No way! [09:01] Girls     No way! No way! [09:03] Girls     No way! No way! [09:05] Girls     No way! SIGN    No Trespassing [09:07] Isami     There were always people who tried     underhanded things at Shokugekis, [09:12] Isami     but this is the lowest of the low. [09:15] Isami     Still... [09:17] Isami     I'm pretty sure this is pointless. [09:21] Isami     I'm the one who brings out     the best in my big bro, [09:25] Isami     but the one who comes in second     happens to be at that venue already. [09:33] Soma     Heya, Takumi. [09:35] Soma     You seem a bit troubled. [09:38] Taku     I had no intention of calling you. SIGN    Yukihira Diner [09:44] Taku     But let's get going. [09:47] Guy     It's the Yukihira boy! [09:49] Guy     Who's he? [09:50] Guy     I think he's the one who     defeated Sarge from Noir. [09:53] Sarge     Yukihira Soma... [09:56] Megu     Thank goodness you made it in time. [09:58] Don     Hang on a second! [10:00] Don     Did you call him here, ponytail girl?! [10:05] Don     How dare you interfere like that?! [10:08] Don     Also, why is your skin so smooth?     With no makeup? And your hair is silky! [10:12] Don     Who do you think you are, little girl?! [10:15] Don     Listen up! The Bookmaster sent us here! [10:20] Don     We were to report our support members before [10:22] Don     the match began and create     the dish as a team! [10:24] Don     If you're using a different support     member than the one you reported, [10:27] Don     I'm pretty sure that's immediate     grounds for disqualification! [10:31] Girls     Disqualification! Disqualification!     Disqualification! Disqualification! [10:35] Girls     Disqualification! Disqualification!     Disqualification! Disqualification! [10:40] Anne     Then let us deliberate. [10:43] Soma     Oh, hey, Anne-san. [10:45] Anne     The Bookmaster is observing     everything going on. [10:50] Mom     Well... [10:52] Mom     The reason I ordered a teamwork match [10:55] Mom     was so each contestant could     bring out their full potential. [10:59] Mom     If that's still possible, the change     in support is a trivial matter. [11:06] Mom     Therefore, I will allow Takumi Aldini     to change his support member. [11:14] Anne     That is all. [11:16] Anne     Adjudicator Tranchant, the floor is yours. SIGN    Takumi Aldini VS Don Kama     Amuse-Bouche Created Through Teamwork [11:19] Don     Th-This is so not fair! [11:22] Don     You're totally playing favorites! [11:24] Don     No fair! No fair! No fair! [11:27] Girls     So not fair! So not fair! So not fair! [11:32] Girls     So not fair! So not fair! So not fair! [11:33] Tran     I see... If you're calling this unfair, [11:36] Tran     we'll have to look into why Isami Aldini     failed to make it to the venue. [11:41] Girls     So... [11:43] Don     Blush! [11:44] Tran     Blush? [11:45] Don     Hmph! It's not like I'm backing down     because you're so gorgeous or anything. [11:50] Girls     Oh, I knew it. [11:52] Girls     He's totally Mama's type. [11:54] Don     Oh, fine, then! [11:55] Don     It's not like this little boy acting as     support is going to change anything. [11:59] Don     Because I know your wittle secret! [12:02] Don     Any Aldini tag team dish     needs that mezzaluna, and... [12:07] Don     The only way to bring out the     mezzaluna's full potential is to [12:11] Don     have both the Aldini Brothers. [12:15] Meg     That's right, Mimasaka-kun     mentioned before... [12:18] (Flashback) Mia     Big Bro, Big Bro, Big Bro! [12:21] (Flashback) Mima     Forno! Accendere! Tritare! Grazie! [12:25] (Flashback) Mim     Buon appetito! [12:27] (Flashback) Mima     It's no use... Even my Perfect Trace is     no match for their teamwork right now. [12:34] (Flashback) Mima     They're at a level that I can't     copy within a day anymore. [12:37] Megu     That's how strong Takumi-kun     and Isami-kun's bond is. [12:43] Megu     But I'm sure Soma-kun can... [12:46] Soma     Hey, you're in my space! [12:48] Taku     Shut up! We've got limited space!     Quit freaking out over everything! [12:52] Soma     This line marks my space! [12:54] Taku     Get real! This is my space! [12:57] Megu     Maybe I did something I shouldn't have! [13:01] Taku     No, it's okay. Thanks for     your help, Tadokoro-san. [13:12] (Flashback) Taku     I'll crush you. [13:14] (Flashback) Taku     Tritare! [13:16] (Flashback) Soma     He had hands that looked like     they knew an actual kitchen. [13:19] (Flashback) Megu     Like Soma-kun... [13:29] Don     Nope! Not happening! [13:31] Don     You'll never make it in time! SIGN    Takumi Aldini VS Don Kama     Amuse-Bouche Created Through Teamwork [13:33] Don and girls     You're out of time! You're out of time!     You're out of time! You're out of time! [13:36] Taku     I don't like the fact that     you'll be using this knife, [13:39] Taku     but at least try not to hold me back. [13:41] Soma     Ya jerk! Who else would agree to     use this huge knife of yours? [13:46] Taku     What did you say? [13:47] Soma     You got a problem?! [13:49] Soma     Well, whatever. You know what to do, right? [13:52] Taku     Of course. We're also... [13:54] Both     ...going to make verrines! [13:57] Taku     We'll amaze and excite the crowd even      more than your amuse-bouche did! [14:02] Megu     Right, of course. Those two have... [14:05] Megu     all those days they spent training! [14:12] Guy     Look at them go! [14:14] Woman     My eyes can't keep up! [14:16] Guy     They're just stuck in top gear! [14:19] Hist     It's almost like they're dancing! [14:20] Hist     Their flow shows off their beautiful teamwork! [14:24] Megu     That's... the Danza Sparda! SIGN    Danza Sparda [14:28] Megu     That's what Takumi-kun learned     back at his training at Totsuki! [14:32] Old     It's almost like baton twirling! [14:34] Old     He's spinning the mezzaluna     at incredible speeds, [14:36] Old     but precisely chopping the ingredients! [14:39] Asahi     I see. That's allowing him to cook at     speeds most people could never achieve. [14:46] Megu     As Takumi-kun is right now, [14:48] Megu     he can sharply, deeply turbo-charge      his dish's deliciousness! [14:53] Soma     Tritare! [14:55] Don     How can he work so well with Yukihira Soma?! [15:01] Taku     Of course I can. [15:05] (Flashback) Megu     The moment's finally arrived! [15:07] (Flashback) Isami     Yeah!

SIGN    The Next Day SIGN    Takumi Aldini Yukihira Soma [15:27] (Flashback) Soma     Hell yeah! I won! [15:28] (Flashback) Soma     How'd you like that, Takumi?! I got reven— [15:32] (Flashback) Taku     I can't just accept the mezzaluna like this! [15:35] (Flashback) Taku     I'll compete against you again tomorrow [15:37] (Flashback) Taku     and feel refreshed when I get it back from you. SIGN    Takumi Aldini Yukihira Soma SIGN    And the Day After That [15:40] (Flashback) Soma     One more time! SIGN    Takumi Aldini Yukihira Soma SIGN    And Yet Again, the Day After That [15:43] (Flashback) Taku     Once more! [15:44] (Flashback) Isshi     Oh? You brought that back home again? [15:46] (Flashback) Megu     I think he has another Shokugeki     with Takumi-kun tomorrow. [15:49] (Flashback) Isami     If you're taking that again, why not     just let Yukihira-kun hold on to it? [15:52] (Flashback) Taku     What are you saying, Isami?!     I'm going to win for good this time! [15:57] (Flashback) Girl     The winner is Takumi Aldini!

[16:14] Megu     Takumi-kun and Soma-kun have got this! [16:16] Taku     Buon appetito! [16:18] Old     What? Only a single color? [16:20] Guy     Can that actually be called a verrine? [16:22] Hist     No, this is... [16:24] Hist     It's black and white. It's yin and yang. [16:27] Girl     A verrine split vertically? [16:30] Girl     It's a complete contrast to his     opponent's dish, but just as beautiful! [16:33] Ran     I guess I'll try the white side first. [16:38] Ran     This is an Italian dish that     resembles chawanmushi... [16:41] Ran     It uses sformato as its base! [16:43] Taku     Indeed. I sliced up some     onions, then sautéed them, [16:47] Taku     then blended in fresh     cream and Parmesan cheese, [16:49] Taku     then added eggs and melted butter,     and then steamed it up into a souffle. [16:53] Taku     It's a cheese-flavored white sformato. [16:55] Hist     And the black sformato... [16:59] Hist     This is... softshell turtle?! [17:02] Taku     Yes... It's cheese... [17:03] Soma     ...and softshell turtle verrine. [17:07] Old     Softshell turtle?! [17:14] Don     How stupid can you two be? [17:15] Don     Dairy and freshwater turtle meat? [17:18] Don     You actually combined two completely     different foods with such distinct smells? [17:21] Don     The most important thing with a verrine     is to savor the various layers together! [17:28] Don     You're not going to suggest they     eat each layer separately, are you? [17:32] Taku     Why not taste it for yourself, [17:35] Taku     Don Kama? [17:37] Taku     Mix it up all you'd like... [17:38] Soma     ...and have a taste! [17:48] Don     What?! It tastes so refined! [17:54] Don     The turtle broth seeps     through and melds together [17:57] Don     perfectly with the melted butter and cheese! [18:01] Don     Then they deliciously lap at your tongue! [18:04] Hist     How could this be?! How do softshell     turtle and cheese go so well together?! [18:08] Girl     There's something sprinkled on the surface. [18:10] Taku     Those would be walnuts, sesame,     peanuts and other nuts... SIGN    Kaki-no-Tane [18:14] Taku     And then... [18:16] Don     Kaki-no-tane? [18:18] Meg     That's... [18:19] Megu     from when Soma-kun battled     Takumi-kun for the first time. SIGN    Kaki-no-Tane SIGN    Kaki-no-Tane [18:23] Taku     After lightly roasting them to enhance     their aroma, I mixed them into the sformato [18:28] Taku     and then used the mezzaluna to [18:30] Taku     chop up all the ingredients to     the perfect length of 0.1mm each. [18:34] Soma     Way to go, human food processor! [18:37] Ran     I see. The slight bitterness and     spiciness of the roasted kaki-no-tane [18:41] Ran     got rid of the pungent smell, [18:43] Ran     and also brought the two flavors together. [18:47] Hist     The crunchy texture is so fun that you can     slurp it all down, yet it feels so light. [18:52] Girl     I've never had such an amuse-bouche before... [18:54] Rantabi     ...in my life! [18:59] Old     I'm so curious to know how it tastes! [19:04] Girls     I want to try some! [19:07] Don     Inconceivable! To bring together flavors     that were never meant to be combined! [19:13] Don     How could those two pull off     something like that?! SIGN    Takumi Aldini Yukihira Soma [19:28] (Flashback) Soma     Guess I win, Takumi. [19:30] (Flashback) Soma     At least for today. [19:33] (Flashback) Taku     Yeah... I guess you did, Yukihira. [19:38] Taku     Well, I guess it wasn't a total waste... [19:41] Taku     All the time we've spent together     since we met, that is. [19:43] Soma     Huh? Did you say something? [19:46] Taku     No, don't mind me. [19:49] Tran     And now, for the deliberation. [19:51] Tran     The winner is... SIGN    Takumi Aldini Yukihira Soma SIGN    Don Kama And the Sisters [19:54] Tran     The Aldini and Yukihira Tag Team! [19:57] Taku     Grazie! [19:57] Soma     Glad you liked it!

[20:07] Kuga     I'm glad I brought the martial artists     from the Chinese Cuisine RS with me. [20:14] Meg     Thank goodness. [20:16] Soma     Hey, Isami. It was tiring as hell     being on a team with your bro. [20:20] Isami     Thanks for helping, Yukihira-kun. [20:22] Soma     But the best partner for     Takumi Aldini is Isami Aldini.
