Now, here his arrogance does a great job because it's really fun to see the opponent's reactions after they are brought down by his words. When I say he isn't, the unique features of his characters come out : his confidence, his competence in stuff he does, his arrogance(at times). When I say he is your typical shounen protag, I look into the fact that he has a goal of surpassing someone, he is pretty determined to do that, etc. He is and is not your typical shounen protagonist. He can be OP sometimes with his dishes but he is awesome, nonetheless. Our lovely protagonist, Soma Yukihira is just awesome. There are rivals, friends, upperclassmen, etc but most of the relevant characters have gotten pretty good screentime to express their characters. The cast in this anime is pretty big, which you would expect from a shounen+school anime like this. Simply put, the voice acting is almost flawless.

The voice acting is funny when required, serious and tension-building during a shokugeki, which is also another plus to the anime. The limited amount of soundtrack is the only critic I could have in the sound department. But if you do watch a few episodes at once, there is a chance that you will come to complaint about the limited tracks. The track named Shokugeki no Soma Epic soundtrack(so much for a good title) on its own is thrilling to hear and you won't probably notice how repetitive it is unless you are watching like 8-9 episodes at once. There is only one track which played is over and over again, during food battles or while the characters are cooking something for their tests among other stuff. Now, on to the soundtrack, in my opinion, they lack a couple of battle soundtracks which they could use during shokugekis and stuff. (And they used the first OP at the end of the final episode 24 of the anime so that means it was the best of the series) The second ending is very good to hear too. It can be called pretty decent, nonetheless. However, the second OP's tone didn't quite suit it, in my opinion. The first opening was very charming and pleasant, which suits the theme of Shokugeki no Soma. The second opening is good, but it's more of an opening for a fighting/action anime. (Says how excellent the opening song is). The ending is pretty good too but it still pales in comparison to the opening. I am not too good at Japanese so I don't read the lyrics but just listening to the opening psyches you up for the episode.
The first opening is amazing it a treat to the ears. However, one can argue that Erina Nakiri(one of the female protagonists) looks pretty darn similar to Asuna Yuuki from SAO.
The character designs, are, for the most part, unique as well, with most characters having different features. The openings and ending too are animated nicely. The animation is consistent throughout the show and doesn't get bad at any moment. The best thing about Food Wars's art is the way they display food, it's just really awesome. (while not being as good as something made by ufotable but its still very detailed and fluent). While one can say that almost all anime that are released these days have really good animation quality, Shokugeki no Soma's animation is a level above most others. The animation of the show, to be described in one word, is brilliant. Not to say that the story's bad, by any means, it's pretty good but this is not a story-driven anime, it's character-driven. The story isn't anything even special to start off with but the other aspects of the show are so well done that it makes you feel that the story is better than it actually is. After all this, you must have come to the conclusion that it isn't unique or special, but that doesn't make it bad. Some stuff happens and SomaĮnds up in Totsuki Academy, which is the best cooking school in Japan.
But is it any good or is it just another one of those popular but dull anime, that I will discuss in this review.įrom the synopsis itself, you must have realized that the anime revolves around Soma Yukihira who wants to become a cook and surpass his father in cooking. The anime adaption of the popular manga of the same name has received the same kind of reception as its manga version did in terms of popularity as well as critique. Shokugeki no Souma (Food Wars) is an anime about battles of cooking as the title suggests.
