She need only realize that he's the guy who doesn't understand love and really just wants to use her God Tongue to make his own cooking better and have her say that his cooking is delicious. Souma's line was just worded wrong. Too bad she doesn't realize that.
That said, though, I really hope something happens to make Souma understand love soon. And all Asahi really wants is the chance to court Erina. No one's forcing her to say "yes". The final decision still lies with her.

Erina will definitely develop romantic feelings for Soma after this. The problem is Soma himself. I don't recall him ever showing interest in the opposite sex. All he cares about is food. I don't think his impending loss against Asahi is going to change that. I'm curious to see how the author will handle this.

At least this time, the villain's goal is pretty much down to earth.
Married a hot and rich wife, put his ultimate seed into her, and she will give birth of an ultimate perfect being, and then 3 of them will have fun cooking and eating together while managing their vast empire in Japan under the "Saiba" banner. |

He's probably early 20s, while Erina is 16-17 which in Japan isn't too huge of a stretch though by American standards it is something that would be looked down on. |

All in all this Shokugeki is stupid to begin with because Soma doesn't own Erina so Asahi should be able to court her without all this fanfare. I'll just rationalize that as typical for this manga though. Gotta force that Shokugeki! I hope she regains her composure and tells them that she isn't a prize to be won and that she doesn't belong to anyone. Calling them both assholes would also be a nice touch. That's an incredibly doubtful scenario in a shonen manga though. With her being female and all. Last edited by GendoAizenPig; 2018-07-27 at 21:19. |

I'm really not sure how to respond to the SJW stuff, but it made me laugh so thanks for that I guess. I'm not offended about anything. If you got that vibe it's on you. This is a manga I enjoy and I just think that the set-up on this chapter sucked and Erina as a character deserves better. I think them fighting over her is stupid as neither have any claim to begin with. That's all there is to it. It's not normal for two guys to fight over a girl, be it for courtship or her "tongue", without her input. This isn't a medieval manga. It may be just a misstep that is remedied by the next chapter when we see what her response to it is. Really your post boils down to "Fighting over a girl without her knowledge" is completely normal behavior and because you don't think so you're a SJW. I mean come on. I'm sure the Foodgasms would've made me drop this long ago if I was what you're accusing me of being. I thought this chapter sucked and was stupid. You didn't. I'm fine with that being the end of our discussion. |

Like I said it's just my opinion and not worth arguing over so I'm not going to address it anymore after this. I simply just think there's nothing wrong with two guys who have an interest in a girl (and in this case, one guy doing it for a non-romantic reason) deciding how best to go about it when they both know the other person has an interest. A guy doesn't need permission to "pursue" a girl from said girl herself. A guy needs permission and acceptance to date her or partner with her or whatnot but I simply believe there is nothing wrong with the winner of a contest getting to try to "court" the girl of their interest. And contrary to your belief, it is a common trope for two guys to fight over a girl in manga, sitcoms, and truthfully in real life especially in high schools and college nation wide without the girl's input. Now the girls input can come AFTER said fight, but it's a lot more common than you think. When I was in college I witnessed multiple fist fights from guys over individual girls, and it was resolved in the end by the girl accepting one (and in a few cases rejecting both), but they certainly didn't go ask for permission from the girl to fight over her. You may think of it as primitive and I'm not saying it's right to have fist fights especially since the guys have to deal with the consequences, but the truth is, most guys are stupid as hell when it comes to girls especially. We're dumb animals when it comes to the opposite sex, it's an unfortunate fact that hasn't really changed since ancient times. Erina's free to put a stop to this next chapter if she wants to. She is also free to accept or reject the contest itself along with the winner if such a thing takes place. But it is my belief that you thinking this is something from medieval times is simply not the case. Last edited by Calca; 2018-07-27 at 23:33. |

Well, he already beat someone better than the First Seat in cold blood after all.
So i am still confused what is this "other son" guy's problem here. Oh i know, Souma is currently not just a First Seat, but Erina's First Seat. Souma maybe the last male this guy wants Erina to sit on, so... Well, you get the idea. I mean i dont know, the way where this is going feels kind of wrong for me. |
