#Asahi Saiba

[ukingk24]

I want to see (you) Sorina childhood friends AU part 3

Erina and Hisako begin to travel the world for her tasting work and they always tell Soma about their trips. Soma is happy for them but also a little jealous that they get to have such fun adventures. One day he asks his dad if he can go with him on one of his trips and Tamako says it’s a good idea. Jo starts bringing them along when he goes to cook and his jobs turn into little family vacations. They go every few months and Soma always cooks at every place they go

The trio exchange stories and gifts after every trip they take. Erina tells Soma about New York and Soma says his dad never took them to America when he goes so he doesn’t know much about it. He eventually asks his dad and Jo gets evasive. Tamako asks him about it privately and he admits he’s hiding something from them. Or rather, someone. Tamako is rightfully pissed and demands he tell the truth. Jo tells her about Asahi and Tamako says in no uncertain terms that they’re all going to America together next time. Soma is 7 here.

Next time comes and Soma is excited to finally go to America, though he doesn’t get why his parents look so nervous. After Jo’s job is done (and Soma learns about American food culture) he takes the family to a little orphanage and they meet a young (10) boy with messy black hair.

Asahi is initially thrilled to see Jo again but freezes when he sees who he’s with. He doesn’t need to guess since Jo talked about them, but Asahi never thought he’d meet Jo’s family. His real family. Tamako sees how nervous he is introduces herself and tries to calm him down. They all have a little chat and everything seems to go well until Soma pipes up “So we came here to see Asahi? Why? Who is he?”

This gets everyone to freeze. Leave it to a 7-year-old to point out the elephant in the room. Asahi feels like he’s going to puke because now they’re here. They’re at the point where they’re going to throw him away, tell him he’s not Jo’s real son. But he can’t just let go of the 3 years of memories he has with Jo. So he beats them to the punch. “I’m Asahi Saiba! Jouichirou’s my dad!” He declares.

This shocks the Yukihira family but before long, Tamako grins. Before she can respond, Soma once again pipes up. “Wait, if dad’s your dad… does that make you my big brother!? I have a big brother?? Why didn’t you guys tell me?!” Soma asks in excited delight. Now it’s Asahi’s turn to be shocked. He was expecting to be rebuffed and cast aside once again, now he has the son of the man he considers his father declaring him his big brother.

Tamako laughs and playfully smacks Jo

“Yeah, why didn’t we tell Soma he has a big brother?” She asks, loving seeing Jo squirm. She tells the boys to play and “get to know your brother.” She tells Asahi to stay back for a second though

“Asahi, I know you’re worried, but you don’t have to be. Everything’s gonna be ok. I promise.” Tamako says, holding out a pinky. Asahi is hesitant but he sees her smile and his hope outweighs his fear and pinky promises her.

The boys go out to play and Tamako and Jo have a serious discussion about Asahi. Tamako wants to bring him home and adopt him but Jo is hesitant. Not because he doesn’t love the boy but because he’s worried about his and everyone else’s reaction. Plus he still feels guilty keeping him a secret.

“Oh, you definitely should be, but we’ll focus on that later. Right now, all that it comes down to is this: do you love him?”

“Of course I do but-”

“Is he your son?”

“Tama, it’s not that simple.”

“Yes it is. Jo, look at me. Look me in the eye. Yes or no, is he your son?” Tamako asks seriously and Jo can’t help but say he is. “Then that’s that. We gotta bring our boy home.” Tamako smiles.

Outside, Soma and Asahi are playing. Soma asks why the other kids avoid Asahi and he says because they can never win when they play. Asahi copies their moves so they don’t like it. Soma asks to see and he thinks it’s really cool. Or rather, Soma is trying to play with Asahi but the older boy is hesitant. He doesn’t talk much and Soma can see he’s not having fun. He asks what’s wrong Asahi admits he’s nervous. This is the first time he’s meeting Jo’s family and while he doesn’t want to cause any problems, he also doesn’t want to stop seeing Jo. Soma reminds him that mom said she’d take care of it. Asahi says it’s not that simple since he’s not Jo’s real son but Soma is confused at this.

“Mom said you’re my brother, and you said dad’s your dad? Even dad said so. So that means mom’s your mom.”

“If that were true, why haven’t I been there?”

“We’re bringing you home this time, right?” Asahi is stunned. He doesn’t think that’ll happen but Soma is adamant. He grabs Asahi’s hand and marches back inside, saying he’s going to make them bring Asa-nii home with them.

Tamako and Jo are talking about the legal processes they’re going to have to go through to adopt Asahi and bring him to Japan when Soma comes marching back in, dragging Asahi along. “We’re taking Asa-nii back home!” He announces. Asahi is red faced from embarrassment and Tamako and Jo share a look before laughing. “Yeah, we are kiddo.”

“Oh, ok. See? I told you mom would take care of it.” Soma says simply, as if there were never any doubt. Asahi is on the verge of tears; he can’t believe this.

“Please don’t say it if you don’t mean it.” He says meekly. He can barely hold it together. A lifetime of pain and disappointment has kept him from hoping but right now they’re higher than they’ve ever been. If that hope turns out to be false, he might just break completely.

“We mean it kiddo. We’re talking to the orphanage about all the legal stuff, but it’s happening.” Tamako assures. Asahi looks to Jo for one last confirmation.

“I should’ve done this a long time ago, Asahi, and I can never apologize enough for not doing so. But one way or another, we’re bringing you home. That’s a promise from your father.” Jo declares and Asahi’s dam breaks. He runs into his father’s arms, crying tears of joy and Jo responds in kind.

They end up staying in America for a while to finalize the adoption process and getting Asahi’s records. Soma’s practically attached to Asahi’s hip and whenever she’s not doing paperwork or working through all the legal procedures, so is Tamako. “You got a 3-year head-start on us so we gotta make up for lost time!” Tamako says. Asahi has absolutely no complaints. Before they came, he was still complacent with seeing Jo a few times a year, knowing that their bond was strong but never really parent and child. Now, not only is Jo officially his dad, he’s got a mom and little brother. And a grandpa back home. He’s got a home! A few weeks pass, and Asahi is officially adopted and home in Japan.

At one point when dealing with all the papers, Asahi's name comes up. Everyone assumed that he'd go with Yukihira and he honestly wants that too, but he also doesn't want to get rid of Saiba. It's his link with Jo and the name is special to him. Tamako catches on to his hesitation and talk to him about it.

"Everything alright there, kiddo?"

"Y-yes ma'am!" "Asahi, how many times do I have ta ask you ta call me mom? Or at least Tamako? Literally anything but ma'am."

"Sorry ma- Tamako-san... I'm just not used to this yet."

"S'alright. You got the rest of your life to get used to it. So what's got ya stumped there?"

"Oh, uh. Just the name part..."

"You don't like Asahi?"

"No, that's not the name I'm having trouble with."

"Yukihira is the issue?"

"No! No- I'm so honored you'd let me use that it's just... Saiba..."

"I see."

"That's the name that Jouichirou gave me, it's... I don't really know how to explain it."

"You don't have to, Asahi. It's special to you, right?"

"Yeah."

"And you don't wanna get rid of it."

"But I also don't want to be rude to you and Soma."

"I get it. Look, Asahi. I wanna thank you for being honest with me. I also wanna apologize for not coming to get you sooner. Trust me, I gave Jo an ear-full when he fessed up. But I need you to know something, and I want to you look at me when I say it so you know I'm serious. I need you to know that you're our family now, and we're yours. No matter what name you choose, no matter what you do, you will always be our family. Jo's always gonna be your dad, Soma's always gonna be your brother, and if you let me, I'll always be your mom. But no matter what, you'll always be my boy."

Asahi fully breaks down in Tamako's arms and they're both ugly crying tears of catharsis. He starts calling her mom right then and there. Asahi eventually decides on Asahi Saiba-Yukihira as his name

Kazusato wastes no time in spoiling his newest grandson, and even less time scolding his idiot son in law for not doing this sooner. It takes a few months for him to gain Japanese citizenship and he also goes through a few language classes to brush up his Japanese. But Asahi is a very quick learner and it’s discovered that he has a photographic memory, and that especially translates into cooking. He can see a technique and understand it after a few tries. Once he understands it, he never forgets it.

Soma’s initially jealous that Asahi can do that but it just makes him all the more motivated. He also tells Erina and Hisako right away that he got a new brother and when they come over next time, they all meet. Asahi’s a little nervous because he’s meeting his little brothers best friends and wants to make a good impression

He doesn’t have to worry too much about that though since Soma vouches for him. He decides to make a dish to break the ice and is surprised with how critical Erina is. He’s even more surprised when Soma agrees with her. Erina is pleased that Soma is actually listening to her critiquing methods. “How can I not when you do it all the time?” Erina sticks her tongue out at him. Soma responds in kind. Hisako tells him that yes, it’s like this a lot.

asahi, bb, you don’t just….physically pick up people and carry them and tell them they will be your bride 😭

[legendoftheotherside]

hah! unlike my usual, where I incidentally jump into the most obvious and usually the most popular pairing, I once wrote a fic for a ship that didn't even have a tag at the time. today there are two fics on ao3, one of which is mine.

Reblog and put your rare pair in the tags/comments! I want to see the depths people will go to create, for the most random two characters in the most obscure media.

[mrawkweird]

Ryusui sounds very familiar?

Probably because that would be Clifford Chapin AKA Conny Springer AKA Soma's current ops Asahi Saiba AKA Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight.

[missbingu]

Asahi Saiba is Azami’s son!!! Those pale genes didn’t fool us!!!

[maochira]

Aryu's German VA got added on Synchronkartei and it's the same as Asahi Saiba from Food Wars😭😭 I DON'T LIKE THAT CHARACTER AT ALL😭😭😭 BUT OMG WE FINALLY KNOW ARYU'S VA

Toonami Weekly Recap 04/08/2023

Food Wars: The Fifth Plate (The BLUE Arc) EP#77 (04) - The Last Supper: Soma, Megumi, and Takumi arrive at the site of the BLUE Tournament along with Saiba and the Noirs. The WGO Book Master explains that contestants will have to pass through three gates, each requiring completing a special culinary challenge to open, before reaching the main castle keep where they will compete in front of the Book Master herself. However, Asahi reveals that he has been seeded to the third gate. Erina then reveals that she will have to pass her own special set of trials separate from the rest of the contestants. Soma, Megumi, and Takumi are then separated into different groups. Soma's group is tasked with creating dishes that will satisfy Tokiyama Heigoro, an elderly Ex-Noir looking for a dish that will be a worthy last supper. The regular chefs are unable to satisfy Heigoro, while the Noirs easily pass. Asahi explains that only Noirs can understand the significance of a last meal thanks to their underworld experience. Soma serves Heigoro monaka with a monkfish liver filling. Soma then chastises Heigoro, pointing out he should stop looking for last suppers and instead take the opportunity to explore and eat new foods he's never seen before. This shocks Heigoro, who was planning on committing suicide after the tournament, and he resolves to keep on living to explore as many tastes as he can. Soma passes the first gate along with Megumi and Takumi. They express confusion that this BLUE does not seem to be focusing on gourmet like previous tournaments. Meanwhile, Erina is forced to face off against a gauntlet of chefs. As Soma, Megumi, and Takumi pass through the first gate, they are shocked to meet Tsukasa.

My Hero Academia Season 6 Dark Hero Arc EP#135 (22) - Friend: Deku and the Top Three Heroes, plus The Lurkers, confront All For One at his hideout in Haibori Woods only to find it abandoned. A recording left by All For One taunts Deku for his failures, telling him it's "his turn", before setting the mansion to self-destruct. The Heroes escape and reconvene to discuss their options, due to the dwindling amount of Heroes left available. Meanwhile, Deku swiftly deals with the second hitman while All Might desperately attempts to convince him to rest. Deku believes that since he can use practically use One For All at 100% without backlash, he doesn't have to watch over him anymore and All Might can only look on devastatingly as Deku flies away, leaving him behind. Over the next several days, Deku proceeds to tirelessly travel through the city, saving whoever he can, ignoring the Heroes and the One For All predecessors' advice to take it easy. Because of this, Deku starts taking on a more monstrous appearance with civilians scared of him and rumours going around that he is a Nomu, yet he refuses to stop, all so that he and everyone he cares about can smile again. He begins to collapse in Kamino where he confronts another hitman named Dictator who uses his Quirk to attack Deku using nearby civilians. Due to being too tired, Deku is unable to fight and is swarmed by the mob until he is saved by Bakugo who knocks Dictator out. After having received Deku's letters, Class 1-A figured out that Deku and All Might were working with Endeavor, and use Nezu to summon him to the school to confirm this. They state their desire to help their classmate in his moment of need and Nezu approves of them going out onto the streets to bring him back. Class 1-A confront Deku, who refuses to give in and demands they get out of his way, preparing to fight.

My Hero Academia Season 6 Dark Hero Arc EP#136 (23) - Deku vs. Class A: Deku attempts to escape from his classmates so they all try to restrain him. During their struggles, each Class 1-A student reminds Deku of something he had done for or said to them in the past, and how much their friendship means to them. Deku refuses to listen as he doesn't want them to be caught up in his battle against All For One and get hurt, as his way of "protecting" them. After almost every one of their attempts to talk or pin him down fail, Deku prepares to execute Faux 100 Percent to blast himself away for good, but Class 1-A combine all of their abilities to create a massive ramp which they use to blast Iida into the sky at blistering speeds, catching up to Deku and grabbing his hand. Iida repeats what Deku had said to him in the past when he saved him, that helping without being asked is the essence of a hero, causing Deku to start to give into his exhaustion. On the ground, he once again tries to keep his distance from everyone, but Bakugo confronts him, admitting the reason behind why he bullied him in the past. He sincerely apologizes for everything he said and done, telling him the class doesn't want to reject who he is, but support him to help save everyone. Deku finally gives in and apologizes himself before passing out. He wakes up in front of the now heavily-fortified U.A. only to be met by a mob of angry civilians demanding Deku not enter, aware that he is the boy Shigaraki is after. Deku is about to leave, but is stopped by Ochaco.

Happy Birthday to Asahi Saiba 8/2 🖤🖤❤❤

[thena0315]

[sylusjinwoon]

his special someone.

asahi nakiri x fem.reader

alternate title: a love letter to a lost soul.

a.n.- i'm well aware that i'm writing for a character the vast majority of the food wars fandom hates, and all i can say is i don't really care. you don't need to read this story if you hate this character, but please do not send me any hate for liking asahi nakiri despite it all, thank you.

extra notes: this story is based on asahi from the manga ending, and it's very self indulgent ♡

asahi never believed he could ever find a place where he could truly call home.

all he had ever known was the harsh reality his mother had given him, filling his soul with a darkness that couldn't be erased regardless of the many times he tried to forget.

looking back on it now, he felt shameful for not missing her even with her passing-

but in a way, he should be thankful, right?

because if it wasn't for the tragedy that befell of him, then he never would have met joichirou saiba.

he saw the man as his sole father-figure and spent most of his life chasing after him. it was childish of him, boasting about his cross knives ability as he took on the BLUE competition-

and suffered a great loss to soma yukihara.

he was told that his dishes, while euphoric in taste and execution, lacked the essence of asahi himself, whereas soma's dishes was filled with his own passion and love.

all asahi ever wanted was to feel like he belonged; that he too could make someone he loved happy with his cooking.

and at some point, he believed erina was the key to his happiness due to the anonymity surrounding his past. and in a way, he was half right. but instead of being her groom, his true identity was revealed to be as her older half brother.

despite all the trouble he put her through, erina still forgave him, giving him a place to call home while allowing him to wear the nakiri name with pride.

he had grown so much these past eight years, and was living a content life.

but that all changed the moment he met you.

he recalls that memory fondly. it was raining that afternoon, and he was stuck waiting at the train station due to the several delays. as he turned his gaze down at his watch to look at the time, he felt another presence standing beside him.

he looks over to see you, a young woman drenched from head to toe thanks to the downpour. you were shivering, and it was clear that you had forgotten your umbrella as evident from how soaked you were from the rain. you cling to your bag and held it close to your chest, murmuring about how you hoped your notes weren't too ruined.

asahi clears his throat, shrugging off the outer layer of his suit before placing it over your shoulders. you gasp and look up at him, giving him a view of your features as he felt his lips turn up slightly in a tiny smile.

she's cute. something about you seemed achingly soft to him, and he felt this strange desire to protect you. coming closer to you, he holds his umbrella over you all while chuckling, "hello, my name is asahi nakiri and i don't want you to feel alarmed. this may not help with much, but i feel bad seeing you so cold."

you shakily thank him all while introducing your own name to him, making asahi chuckle when he asks, "did you forget your umbrella?"

he watches as you nod, feeling shy when he notices that you didn't meet his gaze. "yeah, i had classes and a lab today, so i was out later than usual. the morning fooled me with the sun and mild weather."

he was suddenly aware of the station making an announcement, hearing his destination being called when he takes a hold of your hand. "come with me."

"huh? b-but i live in the opposite direction."

"it's okay, come with me, unless you want to get sick?"

this seems to wake you up when you shake your head, following him with your arms linked around his. you apologize several times for getting his suit wet, but he simply waves off your concern.

asahi couldn't explain it, but being so close to you made something melt inside of him, causing him to feel a warmth coursing through him-

like sunshine reaching all the way to his extremities.

and he refused to let this feeling go, refused to let you go.

the ride spent on the train was filled with an awkward silence. asahi insisted on standing in front of you, protecting you from the crowd of the train and their lingering gaze on your soaked form. keeping his hand against the train's window, he presses his body in front of yours, shielding you from the crowd as he whispers against your damp hair, "relax, i'll keep you safe."

luckily, the ride didn't last long, and you arrived at his stop within 15 minutes. he continues to hold the umbrella over you, not caring that half of his body was getting wet in the process as he lead you back to his apartment.

by the time you reach his apartment, you were shivering, teeth clattering as your wet clothes clung to your body. asahi quickly gave you several plush towels and urges you into his bathroom, promising to hand you some of his clothes to wear and to focus on warming up with a hot bath.

you follow his commands all while thanking him before locking yourself in. when asahi hears the faucet run, his mind began to race when he rummages through his closet for something you can wear, settling on one of his t-shirts and a pair of shorts.

folding his clothes in front of the bathroom for you, his next mission was now to cook the perfect meal for you to help with warming you up.

he didn't want to overwhelm you with a hot pot, so maybe he could make some ramen?

immediately, his mind thought up of the perfect ingredients as he worked on putting together the perfect bowl of ramen for you.

the broth was carefully simmered as he cut thin slices of pork, adding together a variety of spices while chopping up some scallions. the noodles were boiled to perfection as he worked on assembling the perfect bowl for you.

the soft sounds of footsteps catches his attention as asahi looks back to greet you-

only to have his words caught in his throat upon seeing your gentle beauty.

something about you made his heart clench painfully, and he couldn't deny how shy he felt seeing you in his clothes. you looked so soft, so inviting to him that he began to tremble.

he was becoming so flustered, yet you didn't seem to notice as a dreamy expression paints your features. "what smells so good?"

ah, the ramen.

asahi clears his throat and beckons you over to the kitchen counter where his ramen for you was settled. he went into great detail describing it, using words you didn't quite understand but appreciated nonetheless.

"thank you for this meal." you softly whisper before taking the first bite with your chopsticks.

the taste was overwhelming to you, sending you straight to heaven as the melody of flavors danced within your mouth. in just one bite alone, you felt the prior coldness of your body melt away. you felt so warm, so loved that tears began streaming from your eyes.

"it's good, it's really good." even with the tears streaming down your face, you continue slurping up the ramen noodles, earning a gentle smile from asahi himself.

he leans across the table, admiring your cute face and the way you cried over his ramen. he reaches out a hand to you to wipe away at your tears, "it's so good that it makes you cry?"

"mhmm, i can taste the love you put into this ramen. it feels like home, nakiri."

what your cooking lack is the very essence that makes up who you are. all i feel is an emptiness beneath the carefully made layers of your dish.

what you're searching for, you'll get even without worrying about it.

asahi was dumbfounded, attempting to hide his blush from beneath his hands as he watches you with awe. here you were, someone who was nothing short of a complete stranger to him, actively enjoying something he made. your blissful expression was beautiful to him, and he found himself wanting to elicit even more responses from you with his cooking alone.

his heart suddenly froze as realization hit him.

he had finally found someone he wanted to cook for; someone he wanted to dedicate the entirety of his life's dishes to-

and the fact made him smile.

that was how your first meeting went, with you showing him your clean bowl and thanking him for the delicious meal. he asked you out then, not wanting to lose you for even a second-

now, three years later, you were still together, going strong as asahi kept spoiling you with his cooking. he found it endearing how you got so mad at him, telling him "i'm gonna start gaining so much weight at the rate that you're feeding me, asahi!"

and each time you told him your concerns, he would simply kiss away your fears and reassure you that you would always be beautiful to him regardless of your size.

after all, you were his heart and soul. asahi would be nothing without you-

and he was ready to finally admit just how much you meant to him.

he watches you while you slept, completely unaware of the plans he had for you when morning came. in fact, it made him so nervous that he truly couldn't sleep at all.

for hidden deep within the confines of his drawers was a tiny velvet box and a gorgeous ring he had picked specifically for you, his queen.

with a whisper of your name, asahi pulls you to him, pressing a kiss against your forehead as he silently vowed to give you all of his forevers-

that all you had to do was say yes, and he'll make you the happiest woman alive.

final note: i love him i love him i love him i love him !!!!
