    That was a bit too dramatic, like the ages old, beaten to death trope of disassembing a time bomb with only a second left. There was basically no sensible reason why he waited until there's only half an hour left. Did he have his back turned towards the customers all that time so that he never noticed his products were losing their structure and nobody ate them?

    Still, Alice saves any episode. She's so funny with her pride that's not bitchy like Erina's and all those petty grievances. Not to mention those eyes which tell about how she's leaving reality behind when getting excited.

    Nikumi!! You're so not my type, but this episode was so much more entertaining thanks to you. She's "defiant" like Erina is, but thanks to her attraction to Souma it's not stand-offish to watch.

    Is it me, or does the Karaage reviewer sound really unenthusiastic? She sounds exactly like she did the first time with that cheery yet hollow voice.

    Too many girls around Soma. I cant enjoy this when I´m feeling sorry for this childhood friend that just doesn´t have a chance. Not only is this anime set on having Soma date the arrogant bitch that is Erina, but also does it have Megumi, who successfully fills out the "cute girl" category. No place for this one. :/

    Also, I find it silly how evil the Karaage owner is portrayed. She´s fucking selling fast food! Even if her store is successful, it´s not like she´ll get rich from it. Makes me feel bad, too, seeing her going down.

    McDonald's (original owners sold it, but still got rich). If you want a more third world example, Jollibee.

    I find it quite funny and enjoyable. And fast-food you may call it, but the packaging and image is pretty up-market and clean. Souma couldn't even emulate it. Don't look down on Karaage.

    Honestly though, the idea is that she's a huge business kicking mum-and-pop shops out of business. I don't see her as being particularly evil, but this is competition. Souma creates a niche market for his shopping district, and she keeps all her eat-at-home packages that are required for train passengers anyway.

    If it's reheat and eat-at-home food, she would be competing with grocery stores as well.

    episode 19 is out
    ------------------

    that was dumb. i dont care if this is anime ... she looks the exact same! and her mannerisms, bleh ...

    Regarding spices, I personally don´t like to use them too heavily. I prefer creating a nice flavor by mixing various ingredients, treating them differently. Spices always felt like cheating to me. Like, "there´s a flavor I cannot reproduce by my own skills ... so let´s just use this powder here!".

    Also, it´s a little bit hard to believe that Soma would know nothing about spices. For a professional cook, they´re part of everyday usage.

    One more episode proving why Alice is so much better than Megumi. I still can't understand how Megumi lasted this long in the first place, before Soma took it upon himself to rescue her every week. The academy is a totally wrong school for her. It's a place centered around harsh competition, fearless innovation, and self-promotion, which are all things she obviously doesn't like. I can only imagine she had no idea before applying, and afterwards she's desperately trying to stay in order not to let down her whole village. Such a bore. She's the only person of her sort among the named characters we have seen (and even among most unnamed), which in itself strongly suggests she doesn't belong.

    But whatever, these elections are individual contests, so Megumi should appear less in Soma's company, even if she was tagging along this time to the curry master's lab.

    Like many westerners - and I am in that group - you know next to nothing to spices...

    But sometimes, at a restaurant, you taste something you would discard based on prior tests... and get a surprise you never saw coming.

    Happened twice this year.
    Once in a sichuan cuisine restaurant in Paris with red chili. First it was delicious and strong. But I thought I would suffer the consequences, as I have always had a vengeance in my stomach with such food. Didn't happen. So I had a very pleasant surprise.

    The other once recently, I'm not fond of cocoa milk and curry. Always thought it was a bit bland and lacking.
    Had those mixed together as a sauce for mussels. It was some sort of revelation, never would I thought this could be so good.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    HS - Episode 22


    ------------------------










    Megumi!!

    No upsets here in the rankings. The older Aldini did rank somewhat lower than I thought though, given that he's the (self proclaimed) rival of Souma. Either he's not actually that good, or Secretary-chan is also at least on equal steps with Souma.

    I just can't bring myself to like Megumi in this show. In some other show I might have rooted for her, but not in this one. She's so out of place here. But I guess it's good there're all manner of girls for people to pick their favourite from. That being said, although Alice is my favourite girl in this show, I think I'd have still preferred to eat someone else's dish if I could have only chosen one. Both Aldini servings looked delicious, as well as the Chinese restaurant girl's.

    Clearly Kraco isn't after an other-worldly experience.

    It's funny watching people trip while figuring out what they just ate.

    The food porn is ridiculous. I feel like I'm watching Prison School.

    That means it's great, even if it can't be taken on a serious level.

    It felt like that ep was stronger on that. Back to what it was at the beggining. Very forced and ridiculous, and not even appealing, cute or sexy.
