Rika I’m aware that he was just a sneak peek character into the next arc and I have read the manga and it wouldn’t be that surprising when they release the next season but this would also make Azami more hated.

[@tahkio]

Intensify Right but I’m saying they didn’t even say anything about Azami in their comment. People hate the next arc because of what happens and what’s introduced in the next arc not just poor character writing. Though that probably plays a part in it as well.

[@senmohatake2896]

No U Now that would’ve been a better ending arc! Soma manages to take the first seat from Nakiri in a Shokugeki- she acknowledges his cooking is delicious, and he finally manages to surpass his father by fighting him directly (rather than by the overpowered proxy, Asahi). They could even show the flashback to his mom and have Joichiro say she’d be proud of him! The final arc could’ve been handled much better than it was (imo) that’s for sure.

This conclusion to the train arc is the only way a typical shounen show could/would have gone, outside of going back to essentially a development restart and having the series end having gone basically nowhere. Everything had been explored, majority / the most important characters had their development, and the adults had all had their roles played out in full already. Just like Harry Potter and other for teen shows centered around teenagers, and the shounen genre, a conclusion where the protagonist teens become the most important figures - when the shows been all about that - is to be expected. But with such an obvious conclusion, I don't know why the author continued it on into Blue, specifically without his lead chef who keeps the dishes grounded, possible, and realistic just that little bit. I guess he was still under publishing contract, because the show should have come to a true end "just before" Blue kicked off, as a sort of "thing on the horizon" future for the audience to part the cast with.
