🎫 Erik x Sumire? For old times sake. I miss them and your SNS OC's

Hi there! Thanks for the ask! It makes me so happy to know someone out there is still thinking about these characters! I'm honestly struggling to remember what I have and haven't already written about when it comes to those two, so I apologize if this ends up being a repeat.

The ring Erik proposes to Sumire with is the same engagement ring Soe gave to Leonora years ago. It's been in the Nakiri family for a few generations, and it ends up going really well with Sumire's classic fashion sense. Erik's grandparents happily gave it to him for this purpose because they adore Sumire and wanted to welcome her into the family.

/poses/ after a million years...i finally bring to u...a proper update to mafia au, this time with the adults !!! there’s more hints to the plot here so like. nice. some ended up way longer bc i rambled aha;;

check out the rest of the mafia au here /  ways to support me if you enjoyed this 

Sanzaemon is the former head of the Nakiri family, now retired (?). Passed the position to Erina, although it was originally supposed to have been taken over by Azami (the plan went to scrambles after Erina’s mother died, Azami abandoned the family and slaughtered any and all who got in his way, taking prized blueprints and tactician plans on the way out). Was initially still watching over Erina as an advisor in the main mansion until Azami personally came back to try and assassinate him. Heavily wounded, he now resides in a hideout with Dojima as his main link/informant as to what the family is up to nowadays. Back when he was a boss and even now, he helps Jouichirou with trying to find the murderer of his wife. Using his position as a boss and influential member of the mafia, has attained some of the most valuable leads Jouichirou currently has. Now that he's retired, he's been putting more time into this area of research, and is beginning to get a sickening suspicion that things are more than they seem, and Azami may have been much more underhanded than anyone could ever believe.

Shinomiya is one of the most successful bosses, having strong ties and alliances with families in both France and Japan. Also known as one of the most unforgiving and sadistic due to a past incident of nearly executing half his own family. It was a matter of the past when he’d just assumed his own position, yet found himself under heavy attacks/info leaks all of a sudden - immensely stressed and unable to trust anyone, he began witch hunting any and all suspicious members and executing them. Doujima and Souma were the ones who curbed his killing spree, albeit with much effort and investigation. Hinako was the one who properly stopped him, with a vicious slap to the face and cold demand for him to get a hold of himself, and live up to the name of the Shinomiya (and soon to be Inui) family. All family members who survived the incident deeply understand and know how badly it affected Shinomiya (esp mentally), and have sworn to never allow Shinomiya have a reason to doubt their loyalty again. As such, the Shinomiya family is also one of the most tight knit and loyal; spies and moles fear their family, so much so that it’s become common knowledge that to accept an infiltration job into their family means a fate worse than death. (funfact: Shinomiya knew of Souma through a job of hiring him to stalk and assassinate one of the suspicious members, and Souma got a lot more involved+talkative with the boss than necessary, resulting in their friendship. Shinomiya taught Souma quick firing techniques and sleight of hand. He has also quietly hinted that Souma is under his protection once, and if anyone fucks with him they won’t get away with it. Megumi, as his doctor, is also under Shinomiya’s protection.)

Hinako is a delicate and gentle flower of an internationally recognised tea shop, who is also a full time yakuza boss of the Inui family. She runs the family like a good tea ceremony; methodical, careful and (rather) unforgiving for mistakes. A calm and collected boss who always has a smile on her face (there’s only minute differences to that smile, and you better learn to tell what they are, and fast), and an excellent tactician who never takes more than necessary from her enemies. Has a good eye for hidden talents and polishing said talents. Marries into the Koujirou family after the “ascension massacre” (the underworld’s selfdub for Shinomiya’s incident), many hold her in high regard for that (although it’s partly bc of her that so many were killed - since Hinako and Shinomiya were seeing each other at that time, Shinomiya’s paranoia that someone would go after her too killed hundreds). Enjoys using poison to kill, though her favourite weapon is a traditional katana, handed down from generations through her family. Knows Mizuhara from functions between Japanese yakuza meetings, and was the one who introduced Shinomiya and Mizuhara, that lead to their families’ alliance being formed.

Mizuhara was initially from an influential Japanese yazuka group, but she moved to Italy to get away from her family as she wanted no part to do with them, considering how her brother was already set on becoming the next head and she didn’t want to complicate matters (sibling with different mothers, rivalry abound. her bro doesn’t rly care for this Drama bc he trusts and loves her v much but the mothers are a whole other story.). But mafia members recognised her, and she got into some trouble with the Italian mob, whom she thoroughly schooled. The mob was a small faction under Takumi and Isami, who met with Mizuhara and got chewed out for disorganisation within their family. After learning about the mess their family was in at that time (this happened around after Aldini papa’s death and Takumi’s ascension), Mizuhara contacted her family back in Japan who were more than happy to agree with her plan of including the Aldini family as one of their allies. She now works on extending her family’s alliances from overseas, and is also working with Takumi and Isami in managing Italy’s underground (but in terms of hierarchy she’s higher up). Plus partially helping out w the Aldini family’s management/organisational matters, as well as looking into dragging Shinomiya into Erina’s alliance at some point.

Soe was the previous head of the information branch, but is now travelling all over the world in an attempt to refresh the Nakiri family’s old alliances on Erina’s request, as well as collecting information from all these families about Azami. Cool headed (unless his family is threatened), charismatic and suave, is extremely sleuthy and able to hook information out of almost anyone. Pretty much the walking infobank of the Nakiri family, his life is constantly targeted so he isn't able to be with his family as much as he'd like. Due to this, he's also incredibly skilled in both close and long range combat, considering how he never knows how people are gonna try and target him next. He's the one who taught Alice her knife skills, and fav weapon is a rifle. Didn’t initially have many plans to join the mafia; he was well on his way to becoming a world renowned scientist and researcher when his sister died and Azami abandoned the family, prompting an immediate return back. Although he blames no one for his impromptu return to the mafia, to this day he holds a deep regret of not being able to fully give Leonora (and Alice) a life without bloodshed like he had promised.

Leonora is a weaponry expert/researcher, and is currently looking into combining poisons and various weapons in a much more efficient manner, plus inventing a few of her own weapons (she designed Ryou’s dagger and Alice’s favourite butterfly knife, and gave Hayama’s rifle an insane upgrade). Works in a lab in Denmark near a hideout, and is in constant contact with Alice and Soe. Born into a wealthy business family with many mafia connections, her love for experiments and Science was cultivated well ever since she was a child. Met Soe at one of the many mafia networking parties, and he fell in love with the young genius at first sight. Had little to no qualms about entering the mafia world since she grew up with the mafia integrated partially into her life. Quick witted, making a great conversationalist and negotiator. An expert at guns, has no preference. Knew of Azami and Erina’s mother ever since they were engaged, feels a deep sense of loss and sadness for them, but at the same time is unforgiving towards Azami for causing so much pain to her niece and daughter.

Chapelle used to be a spy who would work exclusively in France, now one of the most sought after informants by all mafia members alike. Typically uses go betweens to deal with his information exchange, very rarely shows up himself in public. As such, little is known about him by mafia members, except that no one has seen him (or doublecrossed him) and lived to tell the tale. Skilled with bombs and guns, good at killing swiftly and silently. Back as a spy, his allegiance leaned towards Sanzaemon (and to an extension, the Nakiri family), so despite his position as a neutral ally in the upcoming power struggle, he favours Erina’s alliance/side more so than Azami’s. His favourite and best go between is Ryoko, and no one but Isshiki and Fumio knows that Megumi’s landlord who likes going to the Polar Star Bar every other night is a famed (and heavily wanted) spy.

Hisanao is top of the mafia AU’s INTERPOL. Famously known among the underworld as the man who can and will singlehandedly tear apart an entire family, starting from the bottom. The mafia don’t really bother the public, but when they do, Hisanao is there to wreck havoc on them. Works closely with the mafia government (this AU’s version of WGO) to ensure that the fine line between the mafia and the general public is not crossed. Strong sense of justice and honour, has been awarded numerous awards for his service yet has accepted minimal. Does not believe in completely wiping out the mafia as that is an incredulous and silly thought. Sharpshooter whose skills rival Hayama’s, favourite weapon is his trusty police gun. Always carries a pair of handcuffs with him. Acquainted with Sanzaemon due to a past dispute that dragged in a civilian, and has his own information network running through the underworld. He’s keeping a close eye on the upcoming power struggle - it’d be a huge blow to the police force if the past were to repeat itself, after all.

The Nakiri Family Picture

Did anyone else notice this? Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but...the relationships can definitely be seen in the picture, even as far back when everything used to be "fine".

Soe (Alice's dad) is sitting on a chair which I can only describe as "throne-like", big, with intricate designs, it's bigger than the rest. Behind him is Sanzaemon himself, standing tall and proud but also serious, his status as the head Nakiri is apparent. Next to them are Alice and Leonora, both smiling, Alice on her mother's lap (looking curiously at the camera) speaking of the close bond.

On the farther right, Erina and her parents when they were younger. Erina's mother is smiling happily, clasping her daughter's hand with both her hands, speaking of their close bond and her full support for her child. Her smile is warm, she looks happy, unlike we've seen her since her introduction.

Now let's look at Azami. While the picture overall is a happy family photo, Azami's particular shot saddens me a bit. He's not sitting, but standing and not to his full height, not as proud or serious-looking as Sanzaemon or Soe, but more crouched, a hand on his wife and child's shoulders. He looks far softer, more approachable and kind here.

There's also his chair. Since he's not sitting in it, we can see it's very small, maybe it's even a chair meant for Erina, but if we assume they had known beforehand Erina wouldn't sit in it (just like Alice sitting on her mother's lap), we can assume it was meant for Azami specifically. I think the contrast between his and Soe's chair is clear: Soe Nakiri is the head of Nakiri International and the one favored by Sanzaemon (as opposed to Azami). Also, Leonora and Azami married into the families, but clearly have very different standings within it.

Azami is portrayed as the "black sheep" of the family, a man not to be trifled with, not generally favored by his family, whose own daughter is apprehensive of him to put it mildly. I even think the chair sort of represents Sanzaemon's feelings towards Azami as possible heir to the Nakiri family name: it's impossible, or at least the chances are very low. It was never an option to begin with. We also see how Senzaemon disapproves of Azami's actions in the manga and anime.

We haven't seen (as of yet, nor do I have the feeling we will this time around) the relationship between the two men, Azami and Soe. I assume it's equally strained like the one between Sanzaemon and Azami, or it's distant but not openly hostile (as in, they respect each-other's work etc and engage during familial gatherings politely but don't show any/much affection).

I can imagine they used to have a better relationship before everything went downhill, when they'd been at the start of both their relationships and the culinary business. However, I can't imagine Soe approved of the way Azami treated Erina, since he loves his own daughter very much (a doting dad and husband), so maybe he tried to avoid Azami wherever he could or simply used his many business travels to his advantage. I can also imagine Azami being slightly jealous of how Soe got the better treatment in the family, how he had Sanzeamon's trust and support, while all Azami had was his wife and child and he even partially lost that as we've seen in the story.

After losing his greatest idol and friend, Joichiro, to the ferocious storm, he thought he was alone. He turned into a bitter man he never wanted to be, after that he kept spiralling deeper into despair. Erina mentioned how him and Mana used to walk through the storm together (perhaps at that time everything had been alright).

Best Nakiri Family 

[shokugeki-confessions]

Does anyone want to see Senzaemon, Gin, Joichiro and Alice's dad do a push up challenge? Shirtless?

[shokugekiimagines]

In our culture, if a guy wants to marry the girl he loves, he must first ask the girl's parents for permission before actually asking her. Can you do Souma, asking the whole Nakiri clan for Erina's hand in marriage, please? Thank you xD

Imagine though. Soma being so free about it.

Senzaemon: 

Soma found it A LOT easier to be open about it with Senzaemon.

“Sir, I’d like to ask your granddaughter for her hand in marriage.”

Senzaemon’s heart almost burst.

He was quite happy and supportive of it though.

Gave Soma an extremely long lecture about marriage and life though.

Azami:

TOOK IT TO THE HEART.

The man was barely there for his daughter’s childhood just for her to be taken away.

He is to blame though, he knows that.

Soma is quite scared.

Azami hasn’t moved in quite awhile.

Soe:

Kind of just butted in.

“What is this about my niece getting married?”

“Uh, sir, she isn’t getting married yet-”

Soma just wants to get permission, that’s all.

MARRIAGE LECTURE #2.

Leonora:

She kind of just butted in too?

Heard is from her husband.

SUFFOCATED SOMA WITH QUESTIONS.

But what must be done, must be done.

Soma has a hard time trying to understand what she’s saying.

Alice:

HEARD IT FROM HER PARENTS.

She’s made herself their wedding planner.

Is Soma scared?

Yes, yes he is.

“Look, I just want permission to marry your cousin. Do I have permission or not?”

Nakiri Menfolk

Summary: In which Nakiri Alice enjoys the company of the men in her family. 

The sky was overcast, and raindrops sharp as needles plummeted over the estate. Nakiri Alice stood on the veranda, watching her menfolk chase a football around the grounds. It had started with Ryo drilling Erik in preparation for his upcoming match, but then her father—and even grandfather—decided to join in. 

Ryo never went easy on their precious spawn, even though he was barely six years old, and the others had no intentions to either. Hard training was the Nakiri way if there ever was one, and though it was often very difficult to watch, she had to admit that he was getting good, fast. 

Alice smiled broadly when her child managed to kick the ball through her father’s legs, then rushed to get it again. “That’s my genius spawn!” she cheered. “Good try though, papa!” 

She watched them for a long while, sipping the rosehip tea one of the housekeepers had brought her, and rubbed her stomach absently. She hoped the next baby would be a girl; at present, she and her mother were severely outnumbered. 

“Come inside already!” she shouted, once lightning started crashing into the nearby sea. And because none of them were in the habit of denying her, they did as she asked. 

The housemaid returned just as they started heading back to the house, and — per Alice’s request — dropped off a stack of warm towels. 

“Honestly,” she said, pouting slightly as she passed the towels out, wrapping the smallest one around her shivering spawn. “How long were you all going to stay out there if I didn’t say something? Grandpa, I expected better from you, at least.”

“What can I say? These ones keep me young.��� The old man smiled at her, and at once Alice found herself unable to act cross any longer. 

She sighed. “Make sure you warm up by the fire,” she said. “Erina will not let me hear the end of it if you fall ill.”

“My Alice has become so responsible,” her father, Soe, chimed in then. “In addition to being adorable and brilliant, she’s also grown into such a reliable woman.”

“You’re so kind, papa!” she gushed. “But make sure you don’t keep mama waiting for you in the lab.”

With that her father blanched, and very quickly made his way back into the house. 

“We’re starting practice at 5:30 tomorrow morning,” Ryo said to Erik when they were the only ones left. “You’re faster now, but we still have to improve your footwork and stuff before the match.”

Her son heaved a sigh, which translated roughly to ‘Does it really have to be so early?’ but didn’t argue. He didn’t argue much; Alice would have to teach him to be more difficult one of these days. 

“You know, your godfather is going to be here this weekend with Akane,” she pointed out, just remembering. “They’ll probably end up watching the match with us.” 

Erik’s eyes widened slightly at this, and Ryo looked at him, face deadpan. “If you lose in front of Hayama’s daughter, she’ll skewer you, I think. Better start practice at five.” 

“Yeah, you’re right,” Erik said. “Are we running first?”

“Of course.” 

Alice smiled in sympathy. “But for now, you’re going to go inside and have something hot to drink so you don’t catch a cold before your match.”

Her son glanced at her quizzically. “Mom, we both know that’s not how germ theory works.”

Alice’s cheeks puffed up in a pout. “Yes, love, but I was on a maternal streak and it sounded right. Don’t ruin the moment, okay?”

“Ok.” The boy sighed, and Alice kissed his forehead, making him smile back even though his scientific sensibilities were still offended. 

“That’s my spawn,” she said. “Now go warm up.” 

“He’s a natural athlete, I think,” Ryo observed, watching their son head inside the estate. “Just needs more training.”

“You push him too hard, you know,” she said. “You all do.” 

When her child wasn’t training with his father, he was in the lab with his grandpa, or the boardroom with his great-grandfather—all of them preparing him tirelessly for a role that would never be his. 

“Training builds character,” the dark haired man told her, “and being good at things builds confidence. He’ll need both to survive in this world.”

Alice started a bit at this, but then her features softened. “Your neuroses are showing, darling,” she said. “Your children are Nakiris. Survival is guaranteed.” She brought his hand to her stomach then, covering it with her own. “Now make me a shellfish stew for dinner! You’ve kept me waiting long enough, and your daughter is hungry in here!” 

Her husband regarded her with a half nod, then kissed her unexpectedly, before heading in towards the kitchen. 

[mrawkweird]

Soe here to once again help restore faith in Nakiri dads.

[alexiethymia]

nii-sama

title: nii-sama

here we go again. souma thinks, this can only end in tears.

ooo

Souma must have been gone for too long.

“How’s about it Yukihira-kun? What d’you say to a friendly shokugeki, for old time’s sake? Saiba versus Yukihira hm?”

How else could you explain the guy who wanted to marry Nakiri turning out to be her older brother instead?

He thought Totsuki already numbed him to surprise, but hey you learn something new every day. He thought he took it pretty well when he learned Saiba Asahi was his old man’s illegitimate child, but he turned out to be Nakamura-senpai’s instead. That’s irony for you. 

That also meant that when he came over to the Nakiri estate, after being invited to cook for them with his dad by the former headmaster and the Bookmaster (’Of course we had to invited you. Only a year since you’ve graduated Totsuki and Chef Shinomiya has already entrusted you with management of the SHINO’s expansion. Like I told you before, I keep my eye on promising young chefs.), he had to see his mug at the luncheon table.

‘Yo.’

He doesn’t know what face he was making then, but he had thought they actually got married, before the former Noir chef laughed in his face and explained everything. 

Darn it old man! You have to start telling me these things.

Somehow or the other, he finds himself on the receiving end of a shokugeki challenge. 

“I thought I was the one who was supposed to be cooking for you guys, and what are we supposed to bet anyway huh Asahi?” Give him some slack for being a bit ticked off for being kept in the dark.

“Meh, you’re not cute at all. Shouldn’t you be calling me aniki, or better yet nii-chan?” Souma actually shudders in disgust. Asahi sighs sufferingly. “Erina-hime calls me nii-sama. Woe is me. What’s my cute little sister doing with a punk like you?”

Souma always thought the Nakiri family was weird, but this takes the cake. 

“We both know you’d never refuse, but how about this,” Asahi pulls out and twirls his dad’s old knife. “I still have Jouichiro’s knife. If you win, you get it back. If I win,” He tosses and catches the knife, slashing it menacingly in front of him, “You never appear before Erina again.”

Souma narrows his eyes coolly.

“We’re basically one-to-one. Let me see how much you’ve grown after a year or so of traveling. I’m no slouch either. You might regret pushing me to find my own taste. If you can’t even beat me, how can you hope to satisfy the god tongue? I won’t give away my precious baby sister to someone like that.” 

“How interesting,” Nakiri Mana interjects with a delighted smile.”And how lucky for you that the perfect judges just so happen to be here, members of the Nakiri family and of course, Chef Saiba.” His old man looks cheesed for the chance to see his sons duking it out again. Old man Senzaemon and Nakiri’s kaa-chan look excited, even as they maintain their dignified air. Nakiri Soe and Nakiri Leonora are judges he’s familiar with from past shokugekis but they’ve already proven their impartiality. Meanwhile, Nakamura-senpai looks like he just swallowed a rancid lemon. 

Isn’t it just perfect that the Nakiris were out with Arato and Kurokiba to pick up groceries and tea at that exact moment? Wow, obviously this wasn’t planned at all. 

Souma would have accepted anyway, but there’s no way he was backing down after that.

He flicks his bandana with a ferocity more reminiscent of Kurokiba. “You’re on.”

“Good eyes.”

ooo

It’s close, with alternating votes.

3-2

His dad and Nakiri’s kaa-chan vote for Asahi, while Nakiri Senzaemon and Nakiri Soe vote for him.

It comes down to Nakamura-senpai.

Looking like he absolutely doesn’t want to do this, he pronounces the winner, “Yukihira Souma.”

Souma breathes out.

Asahi plays at being disappointed. “Well, I guess that’s it then,” he says with a tousle of his hair. “Go on and take it. A shokugeki is a shokugeki.”

“Like I said,” Souma says exasperated, “That knife is yours. You’re Saiba Jouichirou’s son too. You have as much a right to it as I do. You’re the older son aren’t ya? You won it against dad fair and square.”

Looks like he can still shock the other chef.

“Well if that’s how it is,” Asahi smirks like a person with a plan come together, “Since I couldn’t beat you, I can’t very well tell you to stay away from Erina-hime now can I?”

For some reason, a person who doesn’t seem to take anything seriously suddenly adopts a serious tone. “You once said that I wouldn’t be able to make Erina-hime happy.”

Where is he going with this? “Uh, yeah.”

“Since you won, make sure you make her happy in my place, the happiest she’s ever been. I won’t accept any less.” Suddenly, the joker’s grin is back. “Try not to be too much of a disappointment Yukihira-kun.”

What else can Souma say to that? “Osu.”

“Yukihira-kun?! Nii-sama? What exactly is going on here?”

Trust Nakiri to have perfect timing. 

“Here Nakiri, try some of this.”

“I can’t Yukihira-kun. I’m holding the bags.”

“Erina-sama! I should’ve been the one holding those!”

“Hisako, I couldn’t possibly let you carry all of this.”

“Which is why I said you should have just left it all to Ryou-kun!”

“Alice, my aide isn’t my pack-mule.”

“Never mind that, just say ‘ahh’ Nakiri. I bet this’ll be the one to make you say delicious!”

“Wh-what? Yukihira-kun!”

As Asahi watches his adoptive younger brother hand-feed his flustered younger sister, surrounded by all their family, he thinks they’ll be just fine. 

part 5 of snapshots in the life of an ice-queen and a demon king

next; jii-jii

being here, in this hallowed space, makes erina feel like she’s met her too

[polar-stars]

Since a wonderful Anon already asked for my otp (thank you btw), may I ask for my second fav RyoAli? Love ya :3

Love ya as well, stabbing child !

I will try my best !

So it’s Alice and it’s a Nakiri-wedding, I can kind off see her trying to challenge the British Royal Family with her wedding. It’s all quite pompous and extravagant. 

Honest to god, I could actually imagine Alice considering wearing a freaking black wedding dress while putting Ryo into a white suit and to truly go for the yin-yang aesthetic. I leave if they will actually go through with that up to you. 

Alice really is just adorably enthusiastic about it and gets more bubbly with each day the wedding comes nearer and Ryo feels soft. He quickly considers his proposal one of the best decisions in his life. 

They marry in Denmark, where they first met *throws sparkles*

Soe is sobbing while guiding his daughter to the altar

The buffet is truly unique. Alice would just not accept anything looking normal on that buffet. It’s just a galore of some of the strangest and imaginative looking Molecular Gastronomy creations provided by Nakiri International. I wouldn’t be surprised if the wedding cake looked like something like this:

I can mostly see them going to into the tropes. So let’s say Honduras. Alice can just enjoy the extravagant, luxus life and enjoy her time at the beach and Ryo can go fishing. Also Honduras has rainforest if I am not mistaken and I feel these two adventurous souls would enjoy that as well ! 

[harumaki03]

I didn't waste my time to fully read SnS 308, I just gave a quick look and since the moment I saw the new judges I throw a dry laugh. WTF.

So, I didn't liked those judges during the Regimental arc and I don't like them now. Those two (whose names I don't even bother to remember) pick up sides when testing dishes and they have the nerve to say that it was based on the ideals of the WGO. Ideals my ass, you wanted Azami to win and you were judging based on that, period.

I didn't bother to read all the details of the Asahi's dish bcs is no interesting for me and I don't truly care and this saddens me a little bit bcs in the past, no matter who were they fighting, I used to read all those explanations, right now I just want to fast forward and end this thing.

Funny is that Mana wanted to taste Asahi's dish and poor Anne totally worried about her (fucking WGO don't deserve Anne, you hear me!!??), so when judges got a taste, “O M G, IF MANA TASTE THIS DISH WILL BE OH SO AMAZING" (this is my assumption of the judge thought bcs, I repeat, I didn't read it) so, OFC when Mana tried the dish, well, everyone lost their clothing.

Remember Gramps Nakiri technique of removing his clothing when tasting good dishes? Remember Soe doing the same thing during the Sōma vs Hayama pt 2? Well, pls remember that the technique evolved just as any other Pokemon/Digimon (choose your fav) with Azami removing his own clothes and his fellows, so with Mana this thing has became a weird/god/mystique technique while removing the clothing of almost the whole audience. Yup, everyone is showing their nice underwear :/ and ends with Asahi opening his arms like he's a tiny god and his worshipers are going insane for having someone removing their clothing of thin air :)

Ah, there's a LITTLE panel of Sōma looking with great intensity somewhere between mad and persistent in the end.

SnS has became utterly hilarious, nothing makes sense and everything looks like showing off the new main character (bcs trust me in this one, Sōma since long time ago is not the MC of this series), I won't be surprised if Sōma loses again and things end up being Erina vs Asahi. This series made me lost any expectations, so even when I'm not waiting nothing, still disappointing :(

Hopefully, next chapter (309) everyone will taste Sōma's dish and along those lines will came the detailed explanation of how he could make 5 different dishes and convey them into one, and then CH310 will finally show who the winner is.

I'm so excited to see this finally ending, bcs yes, I'm praying here that this is the end of BLUE arc and then we have a time skip 2 months later, thank u (that's how disappointed SnS got me).

Peace!
