Bütün edebiyatçılar karıştı ya djjdndnf

Bir teorim var şimdi bu Fyodor ve Nikolai'nin bulunduğu V diye bir küme var ya diğer 3 kişi bilinmiyor. Fyodor'un üstünde gelen biri daha var yani seri çok daha uzun sürecek gibi hissediyorum. Fyodor'un ortaya çıkardığı tekil yaratık yenilse bile çok daha büyük şeylerin olacağını düşünüyorum. Ve bence V'nin başındaki kişi Natsume olabilir. Diğer bir ihtimal Gogol ve Dostoyevski ikiside rus bu durumda diğer V üyeleri de rus olabilir mi? Yani ne biliyim ileride karşımıza Tolstoy gibi bir kaç rus yazar daha çıkabilir gibi geliyor.

Veee bir teorim daha var

Fyodor insanlara birçok yalan söyledi; Ango'nun 7. Ajansta olduğu ya da 6 yıl sonraki savaş vb. üstünde düşününce insan normal olarak sorguluyor, acaba V yalan olabilir mi

Ki bu 2.si bana pek mantıklı gelmiyor ama olamaz da diyemiyorum çünkü olamayacağına dair bir kanıtım yok

Bir de kitap meselesi var. Kitabın Fyodor'da olduğunu düşünüyordum fakat Natsume'de olduğunu düşünmek daha mantıklı geliyor. Ayrıca kitabın bir yetenek kullanıcısı olduğunu düşünüyorum. Demek istediğim Bram ın vücuduna saplanan kılıç yetenek kullanıcısıydı yani aynı şey kitapta da olmuş olabilir mi? Kafam iyice karıştı siz bu konuda ne düşünüyorsunuz?

Bu arada Asagiri işi biliyo kral adam yaa knxjxnxnc

Vee çeviriler için teşekkür ederiz💓

V konusunda gliba ufak bir karışıklık oldu sanırım. Bildiğim kadarıyla V'nin bilinen tek üyesi Jun Mitamura, o da öldü zaten. Nedenleri bilinmese de diğer yeteneklileri öldüren bir yetenekli grubu. Anime olayları değiştirdiği için kaynak olarak genelde mangayı ve romanları kullanıyorum. Dostoyevski'nin V'ye dahi oluşu romanda yoktu, Gogol'dan ise bahsedilmedi bile. V2nin başındaki kişi Natsume olamaz çünkü Mitamura tiyatroda Natsume'yi kurban olarak kaçırmıştı. V Japonyada faaliyet gösterdiği için üyelerinin de Japon olduğu tahmin ediliyor, üyelerinden birisi olan Jun Mitamura zaten Japon.

Muhtemelen bahsettiğin üyelerine Dostoyevski ve Gogol'un da dahil olduğu grup Meleklerin Çürüyüşü ama zaten o grubun 5 üyesi de açıklandı: Dostoyevski, Gogol, Sigma, Bram ve Fukuchi.

V'nin faaliyet gösterdiğini gördüğümüz için yalan olduğunu düşünmüyorum.

Kitap bence hala saklandığı yerde, kimsenin elinde değil yoksa son terör olaylarında kullanılmaması mantıksız olurdu diye düşünüyorum.

Umarım yardımcı olabilmişimdir.

NAME: Ranpo Edogawa AGE: 26 SPECIES: Gifted human

HAIR: Black EYES: Green HEIGHT: 5'6" [168 cm] WEIGHT: 125 lbs [57 kg] BODY TYPE: Slim, lean

OCCUPATION: Detective

ABILITY: Super Deduction; allows him to deduce the "truth" about any crime by giving him every information about it such as where to find evidence and who the culprit is within a matter of seconds. Ranpo "activates" this ability by putting on a pair of glasses given to him by the director, Yukichi Fukuzawa.

Eventually, it is revealed that he is able to deduce everything simply due to his own extraordinary intelligence and that he does not possess an ability. Though he is not unaware of this fact, he initially denies it and continues to believe that he is an ability user. However, after some time, Ranpo has come to accept that he is a non-ability user, albeit occasionally still putting on his glasses to "activate" his ability and perform deductions.

ABOUT

Ranpo was born somewhere outside Yokohama to two genius parents, namely the legendary detective known as the Clairvoyant and an equally intelligent housewife. He was raised in the countryside until their deaths when he then moved to Yokohama shortly afterward per his father's suggestion. He soon attended the Yokohama Police Academy and lived in a dorm, where he found the strict rules to be a hassle. He soon ended up getting into an argument with the warden and exposed his past exploits with women, causing Ranpo to get kicked out of the academy.

Since then, Ranpo wandered around Yokohama, including living and landing a job at a military post, working at a construction site, and delivering mail. However, he eventually got expelled, as he exposed the military post chief's embezzlement and disposed an unnecessary letter in the postal delivery; or left of his own accord, since he found the construction site's corporate hierarchy to be quite bothersome.

Eventually, he met Fukuzawa, who took Ranpo with him and treated him at a café. From then on, with nowhere to go, Ranpo sought Fukuzawa's help, who decided to bring him to his next assignment at Theatrum Mundi, where a mysterious "V" had delivered a death threat.

This latter case led him to Jun Mitamura, a member of V, who attempted to scout Ranpo into their organization of ability users bent on getting rid of other ability users. Ranpo declined his offer, and Fukuzawa arrived in time to rescue him. Subsequently, Ranpo and Fukuzawa formed a partnership and were requested by various clients for their services. Sometime later, at Fukuzawa's behest, Ranpo located Sōseki Natsume, a man rumored to hold connections throughout Yokohama who helped them secure a Skilled Business Permit. Fukuzawa then used this to establish the Armed Detective Agency, where Ranpo became its first member.

The Commison for Counter-Ghoul: Special Division for Ghoul Control and Elimination

Taneda Santouka

Ward: 1

Gender:

Age: 50

Species: 

Occupation: Deputy Director of the CCG

Quinque Type: Rinkaku

Quinque Name: Kindaichi

Specialises In: surveillance, he has almost endless patience and that lets him capture Ghouls just when they’ve let their guard down.

Sakaguchi Ango

Ward: 1 (formerly 13)

Gender: Male

Age: 27

Species: Half-Ghoul

Occupation: CCG officer

Kagune Type: Koukaku

Quinque Type: Ukaku

Quinque Name: Flawless

Specialises In: killing Ghouls, paperwork (he dislikes field works ever since the incident with Oda, but now has more passion for killing than ever. He doesn’t stop to let himself think about what he’s doing because he knows that if he does it will destroy him.)

His RC levels are low because his mother, whom he inherited his Ghoul genes from was a very weak ghoul so he can pass as human through the RC scanners easily passing any abnormal reading off as being from his Quinque. Since the guards know him, they let him through. 

A while back, he was sent to infiltrate the mafia and fell in love with a Ghoul named Oda Sakunosuke but he had to kill him. He keeps his Quinque as a keepsake to remind him of when he was happiest but also to never fall in love with a Ghoul again. 

He tries to fool himself into thinking that he’s not a Ghoul and has much-internalised hatred towards Ghouls. Sometimes he dreams of his mother telling him how she wanted to be at peace with humans and telling him not to kill his own kind. He ignores them.

Bungou Stray Dogs Tokyo Ghoul AU

PART ONE

Cafe Uzumaki:

A legitimate coffee shop that also functions as a detective service ghouls can call upon when crimes are committed against them since they cannot risk going to the police. This includes lost pets, wayward spouses, and missing friends or family, though, in the case of missing family or friends, the president, Fukuzawa has made it clear that they will not confront the CCG, only try their best to confirm whether or not the person they are searching or is dead or alive.

Ward: 20

Gender: Male

Age: 45

Species: Ghoul

Occupation: Uzumaki Manager. Swordsman and Martial Arts Teacher. (Runs the ADA)

Kagune Type: Rinkaku

Specialises In: Cat whispering (srsly is he half-cat or smth) Kagune detachment. (He uses his kagune like a sword.)

Edogawa Ranpo

Ward: 20

Gender: Male

Age: 26

Species: Ghoul

Occupation: Head Uzumaki Detective

Kagune Type: Koukaku

Gender: Female

Age: 25

Species: Ghoul

Occupation: Surgeon in training

Specialises In: Healing

Kunikida Doppo

Ward: 20

Gender: Male

Age: 22

Species: Ghoul

Occupations: Maths Teacher (Manages offee bean orders and other supply shipment schedules for Uzumaki)

Kagune Type: Ukaku

Specialises In: Scheduling and Planning

He struggled a lot with consuming human flesh and even tried to consume animals (like the Cullens in Twilight) to no avail. His failure left him searching for ways to end his life when he met Dazai, who offered him the means to do so. But he realised he couldn’t leave Katai, his only and best friend so he declined. Soon after he stumbled upon Fukuzawa, who showed him that there was a more human way.

Tayama Katai

Ward: 20

Gender: Male

Age: 28

Species: Ghoul

Occupation: Code writer (has job at Manhasset Security, but works from home)

Kagune Type: Koukaku

Specialises In: Working with computers and other tech and coding (srsly, this guy’s survival skills are shit, he only remembers to eat because not doing so is so painful, and if the CCG is around he gets really paranoid and refuses to come out from under Yoshiko. Not that he does much anyway.) 

Dazai Osamu

Ward: 20 (Formerly 24)

Gender: Male

Age: 22

Species: Ghoul

Occupation: Uzumaki Barista and Waiter (he hardly ever shows up)

Kagune Type: Koukaku

Specialises In: Strategic thinking, manipulation, deception, stealth, and martial arts

Junichirou Tanizaki

Ward: 20 (Former Unknown)

Gender: Male

Age: 18 

Species: Half-Ghoul

Occupation: Student (Uzumaki Sales Clerk Part Time Waiter and Barista)

Kagune Type: Stealth and close-range combat with guns and/or kagune knives

Specialises In: Ukaku

Nobody knows whether it was his father or his mother who was a ghoul. He shows very few ghoul traits, blending in almost seamlessly as a human. He can go an oddly long time without eating but usually eats whenever his colleagues at Uzumaki do, as he has no qualms about taking Human life. When Fukuzawa found him and his sister in an alley he assumed he was a human but saw that Naomi was a ghoul and, feeling badly for the young boy, tried to scare off Naomi so Junichirou wouldn’t be eaten. Overreacting to a threat towards his sister, Junichirou displayed his full power. Since then he’s never fought. He’s very calm, even shy, and hardly ever shows his ghoul traits, even when in extreme emotional distress. The only time he “ghouls out” is when Naomi is in danger.

Naomi Tanizaki

Ward: 20 (Former Unknown)

Gender: Female

Age: 16

Species: Half-Ghoul

Occupation: Uzumaki Waiter (She can control herself very well but she acts dramatic and too ghoul-like to be allowed in a public setting without careful supervision. She has binge eating tendencies with Junichirou has only curbed by reminding her that her causing attention would put him, her precious Onii-sama, in danger)

Kagune Type: 

Specialises In: Strategic thinking, manipulation, deception, stealth, and seduction.

Naomi doesn’t see humans as lesser than ghouls in anything but physical characteristics. She says “I’d gladly befriend some if they weren’t oh so tasty~! I think that if I got close I could hardly resist eeeee!”

Miyazawa Kenji

Ward: 20

Gender: Male 

Age: 14

Species: Ghoul

Occupation: Student (helps out with the local farmers market after school and on the weekends)

Kagune Type: Rinkaku

Specialises In: staying positive, making friends, strength and brute force

Kenji knows that Ghouls are biologically different from humans but doesn't see many other differences. Fukuzawa tries to keep things especially subtle for Kenji. Giving him “beef” to eat without telling him what it is because Kenji loves everyone, including humans and it would break his heart to know he had to eat them. Kenji deals with his hunger very well, mostly because everyone always keeps him well fed. He goes to the same school that the Tanizakis do with the instruction never to eat anything that isn't given to him by someone not affiliated with Uzumaki.

Nakajima Atsushi

Ward: 20 (Formerly 23)

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Species: Ghoul

Occupation: Uzumaki Waiter and Trainee Barista  (Because he does not have enough control over his eyes and Kaguine he cannot go to school, He hates feeling so hungry but recognised it as necessary and made peace with it long ago)

Kagune Type: Bikaku

Specialises In: heavy lifting, following orders

Izumi Kyouka

Ward: 20 (Formerly 24)

Gender: Female

Age: 14

Species: Chimera Ghoul

Occupation: Uzumaki Trainee Barista (She’s already better than Atsushi, despite being not as experienced. She wants to be a student but doesn’t trust herself around humans. Also, she struggles with control of her eyes and Kagune. They tend to extend whenever she feels a threat (could be as simple as smelling another strange ghoul) or smells a human (because of hunger and predatory instincts)

Kagune Type: Ukaku

Specialises In: sword skills and martial arts (taught by her mother)

She tried to cut off her Kagune but it didn’t work and she became severely distressed. Fukuzawa promised her that she’d be ready for society one day. She ended up keeping them because they were the only reminder of her late mother and father.

Kirako Haruno

Ward: 20

Gender: Female

Age: 

Species: Human

Occupation: Uzumaki Chef (Makes pastries and small savoury snacks for the few human customers)

Specialises In: baking and cooking, logistics, planning, helping mediate disputes and unite her coworkers, and cat-sitting.

She’s a little scared of Naomi after she was almost eaten, but Naomi has come to see her as a friend.

[fantastic-rambles]

Random BSD Thoughts: “The Untold Origins” and The Decay of Angels

WARNING: Spoilers for “The Untold Origins of the Detective Agency” LN (Brief spoiler for Chapter 91 near the end.)

So I’m still plodding my way through the light novels and making notes on the various things that catch my interest. For those who have read the third novel, saying that I’m going to discuss the Decay of Angels in relation to it might seem odd, but there’s a method to my madness (in my own head, at least).

Right now, we’ve been introduced to the five members of the Decay of Angels in the manga, which seems to have rounded out the group. And the light novel, as the title suggests, refers to events that happen a long time before the events of the manga. But I think that the novel could be hinting toward the existence of the Decay of Angels even back then, with Ranpo and Fukuzawa briefly catching its tail.

(My thoughts/reasonings are pretty tenuous, so there’s a very good chance that I’m wrong/will be proved wrong since I’m no Ranpo who can solve a mystery by looking at it, but this is just where my brain went and I felt like sharing. xD) 

“V” and the Decay of Angels?

(I’ve learned how to use headers instead of having enormous walls of text, go me!)

The lines that caught my attention and sent me spiraling down this rabbit hole are these, which appear near the end of the light novel:

Behind it all was a domestic underground syndicate known as “V,” whose goal was to rid the country of skill users.

And the battle against them was only beginning.

Of course, it doesn’t name the Decay of Angels explicitly, but there are a few things just in the first line that caught my attention:

They are a domestic syndicate. Of course, the Decay of Angels (currently) has skill-users from several different countries, but their leader is very much Japanese. And maybe back then, they were primarily Japanese, with Fukuchi recruiting the others in the years since (more on this later).

“V”: the Roman numeral for 5, which could refer to the five “signs” of the impending death of an angel (one of which is the “lack of delight in their heavenly seat” or something along those lines that the ADA fulfilled--I think I’m mixing up the Mouryou no Hako description with the BSD description, but you get the point). It could also refer to the number of members, but I find that unlikely given that “V” does seem to have more than five people at this point in time.

Their goal, to rid the country of all skill users: isn’t that literally what Fyodor wants to do? Though on a slightly larger scale, as he apparently wants to rid the world of them altogether. But again, if he were recruited later, that would have provided him a strong incentive to lend his support to the DoA.

We also learn that this organization is willing to use any methods in order to achieve their goals, which is rather reminiscent of the methods of the DoA, especially Fukuchi orchestrating an enormous terrorist plot in order to gain control of an international, non-affiliated army and destroy all of the countries.

Plus, the member of the organization who is caught by Fukuzawa and Ranpo is a police officer, Jun Mitamura. Was he an early member of the DoA or the Hunting Dogs under Fukuchi? Yes, he doesn’t seem to be a skill user, as is the case with both organizations now, but it’s also established that back then, the knowledge of skill users wasn’t well-known, and the government seemed to be trying to collect them. So I don’t think it’s unreasonable that some of the earlier iterations of the groups might have had non-skill user members, and it would make most sense to recruit them from law enforcement and/or the army.

To prevent him from talking after he was captured, Mitamura was stabbed by a blade that disappeared (as was Kurahashi); I don’t know when Fukuchi obtained Amenogozen, but it certainly seems like something he could have done if he did have it then. Especially since he was also affiliated with the military (and maybe was starting to get a reputation?) and could probably walk around a police station/jail without raising suspicion.

Angels in the Light Novel (an aside, mostly)

Another interesting tidbit is that “angels” feature prominently in the story, most particularly in the play that is performed early on that has a minor mystery for Ranpo to solve, including the death threat that is received:

An angel shall bring death, in the truest sense of the word, to the performer. - V.

Although this is part of the plan to fake Murakami’s death, it seems clear that “V” and Murakami and/or Kurahashi were in contact in order for this note to be written. After all, it would be a wild coincidence for them to have randomly chosen “V” to be the anonymous sender of the letter and then for this organization “V” to show up later in the novel.

Of course, the “angels” in the play don’t actually have great bearing on the story (as far as I can tell), and the depictions of skill-users in the play are considered inaccurate/dramatized in general (again, since they’re not well-known about at this point), but it is noted that it’s very unusual to include them since they’re generally considered some sort of urban legend. But if “V” had a hand in writing the play through Kurahashi, they could have provided information about skill-users (possibly to pique Natsumi’s interest and get him to show up?) as well as influenced the theme of the angels.

Overall Timeline of Events

So with this information, I’ve organized a rough (theoretical) timeline of events for the development of the Decay of Angels. Starting from three facts:

14 years ago (prior to the present shown in the manga), Fukuchi joins the army and comes to hate war.

12 years ago, the ADA is founded.

8 years ago, Fukuchi defeats Bram Stoker and forces him to join the DoA.

Presumably, around those 14 years ago, that’s when Fukuzawa left the army/being a government assassin and found employment as a bodyguard instead. But Fukuchi did join the army and was caught up by the horrors of war, which led him to start forming plans to destroy all of the countries and establish world domination. So by the time Ranpo meets Fukuzawa two years later, possibly Fukuchi has formed a proto-Hunting Dogs/DoA organization that is called “V” with his charisma and growing fame.

Then, in the following years, he goes on being the world’s hero, fighting against highly skilled and dangerous skill-users. With his reputation and image of reliability, trust in him grows and he’s able to freely go almost anywhere, which would give him opportunities to meet and recruit people like Fyodor and Gogol. Gogol seems to be close friends with Fyodor, so they probably came as a package, while Fyodor may have agreed to the cooperative relationship so that he could get the Book and erase skill-users, while Fukuchi would be able to benefit from Fyodor’s malicious and thorough ability to devise complex plots to achieve their goals. Also:

MANGA CHAPTER 91 SPOILER: “One Order” is apparently an ability that “frees soldiers [people] from the yoke of sin”/takes away their guilt (over committing murder). Sound familiar??? This might just be a coincidence, though. But if Fyodor is also interested in this, it could further explain why he joined up with the DoA.

But not all of the collaborators are working with Fukuchi willingly, as is seen by Bram Stoker. But when he defeated Stoker, Fukuchi clearly thought that he would be useful (either his own idea, or possibly Fyodor’s if they’re working together by that point) and kept him secretly for 8 years. So this is a plan that’s been in the works for a very long time and only coming to a head now, since the ADA has grown enough to be able to realistically pin the terrorism accusation on them.

Miscellaneous Thoughts

How does Fukuzawa get his ability of “All Men Are Created Equal”? If he does have this ability, at the very least, he doesn’t recognize it at this point of his life. Possibly it’s again due to the dearth of knowledge/interactions with skill-users (especially any that would be under his leadership since he’s very much a lone wolf), but is it actually possible to develop a skill later in life as is mentioned in the play, and which Fukuzawa uses to convince Ranpo that he’s a skill-user? (I’m inclined to think not, and that it just becomes applicable after he establishes the ADA and skill-users join, but still curious.)

Little Oda! When the assassin with two pistols showed up, I hoped he was Oda, and he was! Which means that Ranpo and Oda met (ish) before Oda decided to stop killing, and again when Oda decided to start killing again. And Little Oda still likes curry. D:

Road to Power Struggle Night 3 - 10/21/2017: Blue Justice VII; Yoshitatsu Challenges For AJPW Triple Crown on 11/9/2017

Strong Style Story Podcast Episode 32 now LIVE at Place to Be Nation!

Today’s tour show was also Blue Justice VII, the yearly Yuji-Nagata-booked NJPW show (besides Lion’s Gate, obviously) in his home town of Togane in Chiba.

This was also the 25th Anniversary show for both Nagata and his frequednt partner, and rival, Manabu Nakanishi (see below for more 25th Anniversaries elsewhere). Nagata debuted in April 1992, with Nakanishi in October that same year, and have had pretty storied careers in NJPW and elsewhere. Nagata has held the IWGP Heavyweight title twice, as well as the IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team championships twice. He’s also the only man to have won not only G1 Climax (2001), but All Japan’s Champion Carnival (2011) and NOAH’s Global League (2013). Nagata also has been a GHC Heavyweight Champion as well. Nakanishi, for his part, has been a one-time IWGP champion, in addition to 3 tag team title reigns, and won the Young Lions Cup in 1995. All of which is scratching the surface, so seriously look them up on Wikipedia. 

Results:

- 10/21/2017, Chiba Togane Arena: Blue Justice VII (NJPWWorld)

Yujiro Takahashi & Leo Tonga [Bullet Club] d. Tomoyuki Oka & Katsuya Mitamura (Takahashi > Oka, Pimp Juice, 6:28)

Yoshinobu Kanumaru, Taichi & El Desperado [SZKG] d. Shota Umino, Tetsuhiro Yagi & Ren Narita (Desperado > Narita, Numero Dos, 7:39)

Jushin Thunder Liger, Tiger Mask IV, Dragon Lee [CMLL] & Titan [CMLL] d. Ryusuke Taguchi, ACH [FREE], KUSHIDA & Hirai Kawato (Lee > Kawato, Desnucadora, 9:26)

Toru Yano, Hirooki Goto & YOSHI-HASHI [CHAOS] DQ Minoru Suzuki, Takashi Iizuka & TAKA Michinoku [SZKG] (Suzuki attacked referee, 11:09)

Hiroshi Tanahashi, Hiroyoshi Tenzan & Satoshi Kojima d. Kota Ibushi [FREE], Juice Robinson & David Finlay Jr. (Kojima > Finlay, lariat, 10:27)

Tetsuya Naito, EVIL, SANADA, BUSHI & Hiromu Takahashi [Los Ingobernables] d. Kazuchika Okada, Tomohiro Ishii, Gedo, SHO & YOH [CHAOS] (BUSHI > Gedo, MX, 12:00)

Nagata & Nakanishi 25th Anniversary Match: Yuji Nagata d. Manabu Nakanishi (Exploder of Justice, 17:47)

Tomoyuki Oka returned to the lineups today.

While we are on the subject of 25th Anniversaries, Nagata and Nakanishi both made video cameos at All Japan’s show at Yokohama today, in celebration of another pair of 25th Anniversaries, those of Jun Akiyama and Takao Omori. (Heavenly Kings Kenta Kobashi and Toshiaki Kawada were present at the show). To round out their anniversaries, Wild Burning defeated a Big Japan tandem of Daisuke Sekimoto & Ryuji Ito to win the vacant World Tag Team Championships.

In other NJPW-relevant news, Yoshitatsu challenged the new Triple Crown Champion Joe Doering (who defeated Suwama to win his first title in two years, and following a brain tumor at that). That match will now happen on 11/9/2017 at Tokyo Korakuen Hall. Look, I know the majority of us (including myself) think Yoshitatsu has been trash ever since his neck got broken (and probably before that), but he has looked better than he has in years in AJPW so far, and maybe time in AJPW is what he needs. I’m not sure he is Triple Crown calibre (and I think Doering will beat him), but if it helps him improve as a wrestler, I’m all for it. Maybe there really is no place for him in NJPW anymore and AJPW is where he should be. At today’s show, he teamed with Kento Miyahara & KAI, and got the win over Zeus, The Bodyguard & Shuji Ishikawa (Yoshitatsu > Zeus, Yoshitatsu Lock I, 9:17).

The tour continues tomorrow:

At the Tohtsuki Culinary Academy, the first rule is survival of the fittest, and if you don't have what it takes to become a master chef, you need to get out of the kitchen before you get burned. With the wheat of first-year students separated from the chaff, cocky former diner cook Yukihira Soma is one of the handful of kitchen whizzes still standing. As the next round of the Autumn Elections gets underway, can he survive a brutal bento boxing match with the chemistry-obsessed granddaughter of the Academy's director? And which of the other contenders; Megumi, Ryo, Akira, Hisako, Takumi or sinister dark-horse Subaru; will advance to fight for the gold medal? Get ready for another cut-throat season of eat, beat, and defeat in FOOD WARS! THE SECOND PLATE!
