Good riddance

also sequel or moving to another magazine confirmed

AHAHAHAAHHAHAHHAHA YES
USE THE SLOT FOR SOMETHING GOOD JUMP

SSSSSSSS

I guess this is a good time to catch up before it ends

That banner seems weirdly excited about it

>tfw they'll announce Shokugeki no Souma: next generation

Really? I thought the volumes were selling well enough that Jump would keep milking it. I applaud them for collectively the right decision, Shokugeki had a decent run and I'm sure both the writer and artist are ready to move on to something else

>Act age

You shut your whore mouth.

Literally came here just to search for this thread, and it's about cancellation. All I can think is: ok, cool. though. Werid.

finally we will be free from this cancer.

Just getting into the Black Clover anime and heard the manga was better. Is this true or not?

So, how rushed will the ending be?

>The “Shokugeki no Souma” (Food Wars) manga series has 3 chapters remaining. A major announcement will also be made

cancelled my ass

It's true.

>the major announcement are official doujins from the author himself

Lame, and it was getting good again. Fuck tournament arcs.

Introducing the sequel series of Shokugeki no Bouma: the adventures of Bouma, the son of Souma and Hishoko.

What’s next, another anime?

Who gives a fuck, I lost interest after Asahi didn’t strip ever.

this but unironically

shokugeki was unironically the best series Jumo ever had

S

The only weird thing is why this clusterfuck was allowed to last this much.
Yes, it still sold, but the editors should have forced some sense into the writer

Alice or Megumi spinoff series please
Alice or Megumi spinoff series please
Alice or Megumi spinoff series please

Jump*

It was fun while it was pre-Azami. I won't forget the constant Erina and "Mehgloomy" shitflinging. I miss those wonderful days.

At speed of light

Based. They should axe CSM too.

>O MY MAYONEGG
Honestly couldn't have gotten a more fitting ending given how bad the manga had been

Tosh next big harem incoming.

It can get an epilogue in another magazine. Even fucking Higuma did.

This will have a Bleach tier ending. Only the worst of the worst achieve it.

So, why did the manga drop in quality when Azami showed up? Was it the switch in editors or did Tsukuda stop caring and just wanted to rush out an endgame plan to wrap up the manga in 3 years?

3 chapters till Soma and Erina fuck, i'm excited!

Hopefully this means Tosh returns back to porn.

He'll make an ecchi harem and you'll like it.

What if this ends but we get a spinoff with Souma and Erina running a restaurant?

Erina family drama kills this series. It should have remained as a light-hearted series about high school kids cooking and challenging each other. But it got bogged down with "dark" family drama about Erina.

Jump needs a new ecchi romcom. Yuuna and Bokuben got no boost from their anime, Yui is a failure.

Just make it three chapters of Soma vs Erina and I will be satisfied

Tosh and Yabuki both come in with two romcoms and the world changes forever.

I have finished over hundred of mangas yet this was seriously, definitely the best one, no idea why the redditors on Yea Forums hate it so much. (yeah even the blue arc) Atleast there's the announcement I guess.

Before that, Souma and Erina need to get into an actual relationship. We all know Tsukuda could pull the ultimate hack move and not pair them together at the end.

>three chapters of Soma vs Erina
Nah, 2 chapters minimum then the last 2 chapters of them and everyone older and established, etc.

I only hated the BLUE arc, I didn't want it to end. But yeah the hate for it is definitely overblown.

>make Erina a tsundere ojou
>already raked in tons of fans due to the archetype and design alone

Will Souma actually end with anyone, even Erina? We don't know what the fuck she wants, but Souma is going to run his restaurant and that's something that won't change in 3 chapters. Erina though wants(?) to run her academy right? Did that change or something
Besides that, apparently Asahi did really love Erina which is kind of fucking weird but ok I guess. Maybe he'll teach at the school or something. Souma seems like he'll be single.

It's kinda strange to know this is real.

It is a cooking manga that lasted for 300+ chapters. It was time for it to end.

He didn't love her. He simply wanted to have some sort of family.

I feel you

It's happening.
Time to catch up the manga then.

>no tamako and jou flashback
>No Explanation about Souma Scar
>No decent development about Souma and erina relationship

Fuck you tsukuda

Anyone who unironically believed Asahi would actually marry Erina are fucking idiots. He is an blatant NTR plot device for Soma x Erina.

>inb4 the last 3 chapters will be about that in that order

Has spoilers for next chapter released?

Yeah, but he chose Erina for some reason. Ultimately doesn't matter though. When Souma defeated Asahi all he thought about was his dad, not Erina. Seems less likely that in 3 chapters Souma will forget about his restaurant/father/friendship/mother/whaetver the fuck to beat a weak opponent like Erina who could never impress her mother let alone make her foodgasm. Probably won't be much of a match because of that simple fact. There is 0 stakes or investment here since Souma is going to win by all logic in and out of universe.

I knew it was coming to its end but it's still sucks know it's happening. Been following Soma since 2015 and with it going it sorta feels like a piece of my youth goes also.

>Soma and Hishoko
I’m fine with this.

I fucking hope

should have done it roughly 100 chapters go

Did you miss last chapter? Asahi was a goodboi who dindu nuffin wrong and Jou+Souma said so. Erina should just give him a chance.

I wonder how they will end SomavErina and also do wrap in 4 chapters

The most rushed 3 chapters in manga history are coming then kek

I watched the first season and only read the last 15 or so chapters for pure entertainment value as the fandom implodes. Unironically dropped it because Erina was shit.

The announcement is probably an S4 announcement that'll probably cover the rest of the manga. I kinda hope not because JC Staff is trash and their adaptation for the anime has been atrocious.

That goes to Bleach.

Watch there be a sequel or spin off.

>4 chapters
3 chapters, so it probably won't matter. See as there are 0 stakes and 0 chance that Souma loses. My guess is Erina improves enough to enable her mother to eat.

I lowkey hope so just to see everyone's reaction

Even Bleach had 5 chapters, but the whole final arc was rushed just like Blue. Fuck, Bleach was awful long before Chad got off-screened by statues.
No Uryu V Haschwalth fight though. RIP.

best case scenario is 4th season, but I doubt it if there's no manga to sale boost. I wouldn't mind shokugeki: next generation though or maybe some other work from Tsukada and Tosh.

I would be ok with a spin off about either Kuga, Takumi, Isshiki. Hell even giganigga.

Just no more fucking Souma and Tsukuda

a good fuck you would be megumi and soma end

It would be incredibly based and hilarious if Tsukuda and Tosh does an direct Shokugeki manga sequel in Jump after ending the original.

>the BLUE final will be only 2 or 3 chapters long

Lmao?

It isn't getting a fourth season when the manga is ending. They make anime to promote ongoing manga.

Three weeks sounds like a really short timetable. So we're going to go through the entire Soma vs Erina match, have flashback about Soma's scar then immediately have Erina admitting his food delicious, have Mana acknowledges Soma's dish, have Jouichirou vs Soma, Alice fucking Dog and Erina gets with Soma, Hishoko gets with Curry and Megumi unleashes her unlimited potential, all in 3 chapters?

I don't know how that's the best with how trash the recent anime was. Best would be magazine change.

But where are the spoilers for the chapter?

The last one ended with a cliffhanger, didn't it? So who is Souma cooking for in the last 4 chapters? Some super-Nakiri?

Souma just defeated the guy who beat his father, made Mana foodgasm, and is the strongest chef we've seen in the series. Erina can't do any of that, so Souma wins. The end.

>Alice fucking Dog and Hishoko gets with Curry

They don't give a shit about these characters so they will probably get like two panels in the background at best.

>Hishoko gets with Curry
That's a thing? Man I wish I bothered to keep up with this shitshow. At least Asahi is gone right?

There was no cliffhanger other than Mana saying “yeah you won BUT” and it’s just gonna be some lame excuse for not respecting Souma so she can be impressed all over again when he beats Erina in the final match.

>That's a thing?

No

Can somebody please post the panel or chapter where Alice has the really tight chef outfit... can’t remember it

You have to be retarded to think that that edgy boy has any chance when his only reason for existence is to force Erina and Soma relationship.

Post your reaction if erina ends with asahi

Thank God. Now, please let Tosh make an official doujin after it ends.

>she can be impressed all over again when he beats Erina in the final match.
>Impressed when he beats Erina
>Beating Erina
>Impressive
Erina's food has never impressed Mana. That's the whole point of this arc. Erina is the one who has to impress. She's the underdog here.

HIshoko is for Souma.

Who

The first season was pretty good honestly

Togashi is coming back boys.

Is the anime done then?

The first season was the only good adaptation.

No, the best case scenario is that in the last chapter Souma wakes up and everything since Azami appeared was a dream. Then Jump announces Shokugeki no Souma 2: The not retarded edition.

HELL YEAH

I think like soma was like a rollercoaster:

>First arcs were fun
>The tournament was fun and very good
>Stagiaire was good
>The festival arc was decent
>Central and promotion arcs were bad
>Investigation arc was fun to read.
>Beach exam was decent but Saiba is a shitty villain and make it the arc looks worse.
>Blue is a mediocre and rushed arc, and Saiba(+Erina's mother) make the arc looks worse.

But I will give Tsukuda that all arcs makes sense and seems like they were planned (maybe Aizen chef is the exception).

Rest in Piss

The only way you can redeem yourself Tsukuda is to have Erina and Souma not end up together just because the MC "has" to end up with someone.

I hope Souma just disappears at the end and just stays away from the Nakiris and their shit.

Souma just quitting the school like his dad because he defeated everyone and going back to his diner like nothing happened would be based

and if the end is about the blue arc and the big announcement is that the last arc will start

What's the point of being delusional when it literally says that this is the end?

He should travel around the world and forget about Erina and her dysfunctional family.

>three more weeks until Mehgloomy shippers kill themselves

About damn time

I mean, the round of cancellations is over, they would have to fill that space in the magazine with something

>113 posts
>2 images
Jesus christ faggots at least post some cute girls

There are 3 new manga coming into Jump. Those new serializations are Futari no Taisei, Beast Children and Tokyo Shinobi Squad.

Let it go Jim

Yes but with shokugeki 4 series área cancelled

But it ended long ago when they finally beat the first and second seats.

FINALLY

They will fill it with oneshots or special chapter for Jump+ or Jump SQ series.

Going by Soumom's backstory, Soma can perfectly backpedal and ending up with Megu. Come on, it's the only girl Souma has even had more interactions with and the one that made him get turbopissed because she was going to get kicked out of Tootsuki. She's also a failure cook.

I would rather Megumi not end up with such a shit.

>yfw Souma ends up with Yuuki

Attached: 2019-04-02 (38).png (1360x768, 1.44M)

Soma wants to cook for Erina and make her say his food is delicious. Megu eats his cooking and calls it delicious all the time. He cleary has more interest in Erina, also Saibas advice about cooking for an girl (Erina) that'll make him better.

I don't even care at this point.

Sad thing is that this manga could've recovered after the Azami arc, just refocus on random shokugekis as the 1st seat or do an arc on how chaotic seat formation was before 2nd year. Or even not use El Hermano and have a comfy beach arc.
BLUE was also wasted. It's a joke of a competition and a joke of an arc

3p end with Erina and Hishoko would be the best

Thank god it's over. They had a chance to salvage it once the shitfest Central arc was over but they chose to double down on the stupid family drama by introducing El Hermano.

You'll get your Asahi spinoff and you'll like it.

...

I say he ends up single because it seems like everyone except Souma wants to cook for someone they love.
Asahi literally told Souma twice about cooking for someone he loved, and Souma still doesn't get it. Fuck, even Megumi gave him similar advice hundreds of chapters ago and Souma has never once, even fucking once, thought about a girl to cook for. Souma doesn't give a care. Souma will never care probably.
Used to think this meant something. Now it seems it doesn't. Whatever.

Asahi is a godlike character and will end up with Erina you pleb. Please leave this thread with your shit taste as you could never appreciate Asahi's genius-level cooking and plot.

Mostly, I'm just kinda sad.
There was a time when this manga gave us as many crazy hype moments as Kaguya or Chainsaw Man.

Easy: Souma wins at the end of next chapter. Since he won't lose.
Jou's adopted son that left to become a master chef and challenge Souma and marry Erina for the sole purpose of procreation.

Souma's adopted brother from America who wanted to marry Erina so he could do the "Cooking for someone you love" thing. Also could learn recipies through stealing other chef's knives and was a "dark chef"

See you obvious pleb.

I think everybody from the author to the editor just wants to be done with it already

They went down the route of having superpowers and shit already, since Asahi beat him already and Souma beat Asahi, it's the same thing in their world.

It's better if you didn't know

but Joichirou was holding back

Funny, the fact they did that made me think it wouldn't end so soon, since otherwise it would've been easy to wrap it up neatly. Now though....idk anymore.

Will Tosh ever draw hentai of SnS?

Alright guys here is the all-important question: what should Tosh do now?
1. Go back to drawing H-manga/doujins full time
2. Move to a monthly mag like Jump SQ which may open up enough time to do the odd doujins on the side
3. Tackle another ecchi series on Jump with another writer

desu they should just drop the boring ass cooking fight and go full harem plot

I could still call you a pleb for not espousing Asahi's astonishing background, role, and character development, but you are correct that person couldn't properly appreciate it.

what?

>She can be their mistress/assistant
Sure, the Yukihira diner could use more cooks. In fact, every girl can come! The more the merrier!

Yes, but this announcement is in the new issue, so it does not count the chapter we are getting tomorrow. Basically it's 4 chapters left atm.

Souma should marry her. Her foods not groundbreaking, but she's nice. Just like his mother. Also rice.

There was nothing else to talk about. The threads were mostly dead because the arc was so garbage people stopped caring or just popped by to express their repeated disappointment and that got old too.

Putting aside the unredeemable mess this arc was, where the fuck are the spoilers?

they fucked her with that haircut

No one cares anymore, not even leakers or translators. Scans are always really late now.

3 chapters feels quite rushed though.
Maybe it’s switching magazines?

>tfw pachinko
I would kek so hard the nips would hear it from across the ocean.

The arc was the exact same as all the other arcs. Like every one. People just used "it is going downhill" as some excuse for a series that never had a concept that was that expansive. It was a fanservice cooking series and it never really became anything other than that.

>The arc was the exact same as all the other arcs. Like every one.
If this isn't bait then you're either illiterate or deluded, if this is bait then here's your (You).

Azami was the beginning of the end. Straying away from comfy shenanigans killed the manga.

Cooking superpowers, chainsaws, X knives and O MY TASTE OF FAILURE ended up killing this manga.

It was never some masterfully written series. It was always fanservice and food porn and it remained that. He defeated his rivals, he defeated the best at the school, and then he defeated the best abroad. Nowhere else for the series to go.

Don't forget most importantly the NTR

>It was never some masterfully written series.
Asahi proves you wrong. Literally one of the best writing in the whole manga. A symbol of the greatness this manga achieved.

Series going out at its peak. Smart move.

there's good battle shonen and shit battle shonen; stuff like his dad jobbing to the newly introduced el hermano is what made this a shit one.

Nah, that's Tsukuda's way to shit on his manga after the higher-ups decided to give it the axe months ago.

Shueisha doesn't make all of its money from magazine sales. In fact, the profit in magazines and print paper is probably relatively small because there is a lot of competition in that front. Just compare production costs vs. store price. Manga is pretty cheap. Anime and product licenses probably make more, since they are money upfront.

So a manga doesn't just have to sell magazines. The editors want to find intellectual properties capable of selling new anime seasons and videogames if possible. And while Soma is still profitable, a new anime season hasn't been announced, and it kinda gets in the way of Shueisha finding the next HeroAca or Kimetsu.

Fucking finally. Whoever like this garbage should have to hang up him/herself.

I don't think that is the final volume.
Vol.36 might be one with the Yukihara family if it continue following the theme and we were finally introduced to Soma mother.

Only thing I’m upset about is that Tsukuda never did Megumi or Alice justice. The guy fucked over iterally his entire cast, including Soma.

I hope it's the Yukihira family alone with no Nakiris in sight then

It really does lol. None of us have wanted to see a soumegu ending since like, fuck, the beginning of the central arc.

Italian pretty boy Ending for best girl.

I don't expect Soma ending up with anyone, this is a shounen after all

Honestly the only thing that could save this series is going full to love ru with it.

But the typical shounen formula is timeskip ending with MC being married/having a family.

>tsukuda is tired of writing shonenshit
>yfw the announcement is a SOL sequel

There was nothing wrong with Soma's mom as a character. Her intro just had the misfortune of being dumped in the middle of a trasheap of an arc.

I will never understand why author disliked his own series so much. One thing is losing professional consult support, another is to crash the storyline so hard. Erina Papa could have been handled better, heck I didn’t see much trouble until the reveal of Souma father. From that point author hyped the father so much, I expected a twist like another competitive school overseas, but it turns out his actions were childish and from then is just free fall in story quality.

Sorina is such an asspull ending. Makes less sense than most shounen pairings and that’s saying something.

>Will Souma actually end with anyone, even Erina?
I wouldn't bet on it. Open ending would be the easiest thing to do at this point as there's been essentially no real buildup to Souma x anyone.

Her haircut was the biggest crime of this arc

B-b-but he found Erina pretty that one panel bro!

As much as I hate the manga, those are good covers. Too bad the inside is shit.

Soumegu still makes more sense if you think about how close they are in comparison, but since when has romance in shounen ever made any fucking sense?

Holy shit, Eleanor>>>>>>>>>>>>>Mana so fucking hard is unbelievable.

Always? Despite what dumbasses say, most pairings in shonen make sense some seeds were planted. Either mutual feelings or one-sided feelings. Ed and Winry had mutual feelings while Orihime had one-sided feelings for Ichigo. Those are just examples. What did Tsukuda give us here? Nothing. There’s still no clear cut confirmation that Erina has feelings for Souma or vice-versa.

I honestly also like Erinas mom and her undressing burst is a good joke, but it's so obvious the author just is dry out of idea's, the fact that we're at least 5 "oh it's like we're in a Manga" jokes proves that.
I'm still kinda enjoying it but in a "it's so bad it's good" kinda way, which is very sad.

The final scene will be Erina acknowledging Souma's skill with them smiling and proabab;y nodding at each other with some background monologue in a close up face shot panel or something, and that's it.

The Nakari family sure has wierd eyebrows

Worse. A lot worse.

I am all for the manga ending with how shit its been lately but doesn't this feel rushed? How is Soma suppose to suddenly earn Mana's respect in 3 chapters? There's no way him and Erina can have a battle now.

There will be no ship, something tells me maybe author got mad over that chef girl getting pregnant, like that could explain why Souma turned into a clown and the story went to shit.

>fans have been hyped for soumom reveal for years
>she gets one chapter and that’s it
What the fuck?

>How is Soma suppose to suddenly earn Mana's respect in 3 chapters? There's no way him and Erina can have a battle now.
>Make my daughter acknowledge you and you'll have my respect
or something?

It was a fun if predictable manga and I'll give it that it wasn't until these final 2 arcs did the predictability and the absence of other characters really bite me the hardest.

I'll be a little sad to see it go but it's probably for the best. Also are ANY of you actually expecting some sort of conclusive romance? You'll get your fucking 10 years later spread with kids and that's it. And don't you dare act like it'll make up for anything because you know it won't.

No it doesn't. Souma never really cared about mehgloomy as anything other than a friend, while him trying to impress Erina since the beginning of the manga is the most obvious setup ever. The threads and fanbase may be in a calamitous state right now, but that's no excuse to blatantly lie like that.

Erina killed this manga more than Azami and Asahi did desu

jesus fucking christ, don't make me go rukiafag in this thread please

It’s because her character is constantly in some stupid forced drama and for no reason. She was already the most popular character, there was no need to try and give her some woo me backstory which are usually used to gain the favor of fans.

>You'll get your fucking 10 years later spread with kids and that's it.
This counts as "conclusive romance" for a lot of people. It'll make this entire arc worthwhile for them.

The threads used to read like your typical romcom waifuwar thread so I'm kind of not surprised.

Megufags make some noise

>3 chapters is short
Maybe Oav or anime or sequel of this Manga . Thanks to Erina the worst character.

I don't think they were trying to make her more popular. Just the fact that she's kinda the heroine and only recently got to play that role.

rukia never stood a chance. you can go on about subjective chemistry and popularity and yadadadada, but at the end of everything orihime was the only girl in love with ichigo and he treated her differently than any other girl or person in his life. how did you fags think you stood a chance when ichigo abandons a dying rukia the moment ulquiorra tells him that he was the one to bring orihime to HM? just as dumb as narusakufags who thought they stood a chance after the fake confession.

k lol

There's still the chance of getting an epilogue or some special chapters in Giga or something.

Megoo is a shit.

Let's remember the fun times

Erina got a sad backstory to wave off her bitchy attitude cause apparently a sad backstory is better writing than Erina owning up to her bratty past self and apologizing to those around her.

She’s the character that didn’t kill the manga with the constant bad drama.

Wild Souma>Clown Souma

Yeah, but Erina/Alice's are pretty normal. I wonder if it skips every third generation or something.

Souma getting angry doesn't mean he cared for her as more than a friend, and one could easily point out how Souma continually butting his nose in Erina's family affairs even when nobody asked him to, like in Azami's introduction is pretty telling from a storytelling standpoint. Even if I were to agree with you on Souma's feelings not being fully developed, the fact that an actual setup that advanced Souma/Erina's relationship through the manga trumps Soumegu's no setup and stale relationship.

I will never forget Hishoko's smile.

Why is she throwing a tantrum?

Because she's boring, unattractive (compared to the 11/10 around her), a complete loser and has her arms glued to her torso.

Souma buts into it cause he’s the MC. The grandfather is the one thats tells him to save Erina in which Soma answers that he doesn’t care about any of that and just wants to hear her say his cooking his delicious. Soumegu being stale is subjective and the set-up would have been there since the chapter where Megumi blushes heavily, but Tsukuda backed out and said it was mere admiration.

The manga destruction tier list is Asahi > Azami > Erina
Or you can lump all the Nakiris together and say Asahi > Nakiris

Author is the main culprit. Megumi stole many chapters where other sidekicks could have shined, strange dinosaur pose and personality resetting all the time. Is no help that fans also act like total shitposters.
Don’t try to get my words around, I still remember threads prior the 100th chapter.

rating literal drawings out of 10... go outside lol

>has her arms glued to her torso
Why does Tsukuda insist on drawing her that way even after the Central arc? It's almost as obnoxious as Soma having that dumbass "I don't give a fuck about anything" face he had for the entirey of BLUE.

Seething Erinatard. How does it feel knowing the manga went to complete shit the moment Erina stepped into the heroine role? It’s a fact that it was a better story when Megumi was in the front and Erina was still in the back in terms of paneltime.

Well it was only a matter of time before this shit got cancelled.

Attached: Alice_Teasing (2).png (244x204, 71K)

What other sidekicks? Even if Megumi went somewhere else, her screen time wouldn’t have gone to Hisako or Alice or Dog cause Tsukuda doesn’t give a flying fuck about them. The only ones he cared enough to feature almost constantly beside Soma and Erina were Megumi and at times Takumi and even in the end they were afterthoughts. Every character including the MC were fucked over by shitty writing since Soma regressed as a character.

He almost redeemed himself by drawing her in the geisha look after the timeskip. Almost.

>tsukuda
>drawing
tosh draws

During tournament, the bros could had been goofing around in preliminaries; in final, smoke could have talked more; start of festival glass guy could have offer his knowledge to aid about business. Megumi liking manga is also kind of strange, that role could have been distributed to the two other girls. Megumi taking the spotlight continuously was just bad, not only she lacks personality but also wasn’t very bright to help Souma.

When was that scene? I can't remember it at all.

Extremely boring, takes panels from other characters, huge plot armor. She's even a failure at being a proper doormat, since she can't win popularity polls against side characters.

It was right before she gets kidnapped by El Hermano I think

What about Hisako?

Attached: hisako turtle.png (835x1243, 636K)

why the fuck didnt they just end it when erina became principle.

now they have to cancel it from bad sales

>taking the spotlight
You’re acting as if multiple characters couldn’t have gotten focus at the same time which is bullshit since it’s something that’s happened multiple times in the past. If Tsukuda really and genuinely wanted to give the other Polar Dorm members more focus he would have, but he clearly doesn’t give a fuck about them which is no surprise since the guy doesn’t really seem to care for 99.9% of his cast. Even with the focus she got, Megumi didn’t get the characterization she deserved but I can’t be too mad since not even Soma got such a thing. Some of you are just trying to look for ways to make Megumi seem as bad as Erina cause the latter started the downfall with her bad drama.

>Souma buts in because he's the mc
Obviously, you idiot. He also got angry at Shinomiya when he expelled mehgoo because he's the mc and the author needed some motivation for him to challenge a teacher. I'm talking about the broader narrative picture, as in, a lot of the advances he makes as a cook had to do with the fact that Erina has yet to admit his food is delicious. By comparison, there's nothing to advance with mehgoo since she has always outwardly respected and admired Souma. Now tell me wich one here actually fits the theme of cooking for a woman that would make Souma want to give all of his food to? That was fucking chapter 1.

>The setup would be this throwaway fanservice moment that advances neither of the characters involved
You lack reading comprehension.

Him, his wife, and Alice are the only good Nakiri members.

What's funny is the culprit is actually Souma himself. 5ch is aware of it, but Yea Forums has never understood.

It feels like mehgloomyfaggot coping, because that's what it is. Erina is by far the manga's biggest draw (just look at any of the polls) with the mc as a distant second, while Memegoo was an afterthought that could neither help nor ruin the story because she's not important, popular or interesting enough to do any of that.

>find woman to cook for
>immediately pan to Erina
>chapter 1
>one shot has two relevant characters: Souma and Erina
SnS went down the shitter, but imagine someone reading this and thinking other characters had a chance. Megumi is also one of the most boring, non-compelling female "main characters" out there. You couldn't find worse if you tried.

Souma is shit, but at least he didn’t bring forced and terribly written drama into the series.

About the change of this series focus midway, that's something only the author can explain as there’s something fishy of how not only the story changed but also characters became simpler. Now, blaming everything on Erina does not work, she too had a drastic change to fit the arc. I have already exposed why Megumi is not well liked, not only us who prefer Erina but also part of people who like the battle and general story also got feed up in the past, just check the archive.

This is the most active Soma thread in months.

To be fair, this is the best news Soma has had in months.

She was top 5 among the best looking girls in the manga before her atrocious haircut, and she will be Sorina's official mistress. She's one the manga's winners.

Popularity doesn’t make something or something automatically good, but I don’t expect an Erinatard to know better. At the end of the day, Erina and the Nakiri drama ruined the series. El Hermano is just the cherry on top since his main role was to bring the undeveloped Soma x Erina together.

It’s literally all because of Nakiri bullshit. You can try and argue as much as you’d like, but the manga if proof of this.

He ate of 90% of the screentime in the entire manga by himself, almost never letting other characters have any focus. His character went nowhere despite this so he was just pointlessly sucking up time. And his battles, which are again, the vast majority of the battles in the series, became increasingly unsatisfactory bullshit where he essentially just wins because he's the main character and the pretext otherwise became flimsier and flimsier.

I would prefer Nikumi, but I'm fine with that.

>Mehgloomy
>Erinatard
Despite the downfall of the series, it's somewhat amusing to see Erinafags and Megumifags still arguing with each other.

I already said he was shit and what you wrote has been stated multiple times in older threads. His only redeeming quality is that he didn’t bring the bad drama into the series cause the Nakiri family took care of that.

well yeah, for once something good happens to the series

He was fine until Azami appeared. Before then he had reasonable challenges to overcome and learn from, but when he was suddenly pitted against the fucking Elite 10 you automatically knew he was going to win with minimal effort. It was all downhill from there.

Yeah, he only hogged 95% of the panels in the manga with nothing to show. It didn't matter if they were going to cook underwater or in space, Souma doing everything slowly choked the creativity/diversity the manga had.

It's not just a question of him being shit. It's his absolute dominance while being shit. If a character is boring and reading about him isn't fun, and he takes up the overwhelming majority of the manga's time, then the vast majority of the manga is boring and the vast majority of the manga isn't fun. Souma was a poison.

He’s the MC. Unfortunately they get the most screentime. Soma being shit doesn’t change the fact that it was Erina and her family that brought the forced and bad drama into the series or do you think the series would have been good with all that if Soma got less paneltime? Gimme a break. This shit reached bottom of the barrel and it’ll go out as a wet fart the way it deserves. Soma being a shit character was just ONE thing wrong with the overall writing.

Fuck off trying to promote your dumblr blog.

I know right? I'm not even a shipper, but Sorina is such an obvious endgame it's almost comical. You always see shonentard supershitters lamenting how a pairing makes no sense just because it doesn't line with their delusions, but SnS is just not the manga to bitch about that.

So now that the axe finally did its thing, are there any good cooking mangos out there?

It's happened before and Jump will keep delivering the same levels of salt.

The anime has pacing issues out the ass, and when it's not time for a Studio Pierrot high quality battle, you've got plenty of QUALITY instead. The filler does have benefits of actually explaining some relevant stuff better, like giving context to a trio of novel characters that suddenly become relevant in the main plot, but otherwise the manga's much more efficient because it wastes little time on bullshit to get to the fights faster.

Some would argue that characterization suffers as a result of that, but to each their own. BC doesn't really push the envelope either way.

Unattractive just like her.

Alice is better. Next question.

Nah. SnS never reached the popularity of Naruto and Bleach so no one is really gonna care. You even have Megumifags that don’t care since they think Soma went to shit as a character.

What’s not to like? Plus her design and color scheme are pleasing to the eyes.

She's hot

Nobody said popularity automatically makes a character good, you retard, I said that Erina is its biggest draw, which is just a fact. It was obvious that any "drama" and consequently story development would come from how other characters and circumstances affected either Erina or Souma, quite simply because a chucklefuck like mehgloomy isn't interesting or important enough to do that. What, did you actually thought Jap readers bought the volumes to read about the exhilarating adventures of a doormat loser with only the most basic of boilerplate character traits and her "comfy" cooking? Hell no bitch, the wanted to see Souma overcome the odds, Erina being delightfully hot and how she would eventually get defeated by Souma and or defrost/turn into an ally, and for her to finally say his food is delicious.

Your entire post is hilarious because volumes sales don’t even back up your bullshit. Sales peaked with the Stagiaire Arc. Readers brought the volumes because early SnS was a fun and good read. It was solely for Soma or Erina you fucktard. Soma was a good MC that readers rooted for, Megumi was a good character that was developing, other characters got a fair amount of focus, and Erina despite her attitude was very popular and readers were waiting for backstory. Even one of the latest volumes despite the focus being primarily on Soma and Erina and all this bullshit drama couldn’t outsell the third volume which just shows how neither of them alone could carry this series, but keep living in your delusional lala land.

Well damn. Time to get caught up I guess.
So what's the announcement gonna be? Sequel series? Spin-off? New series drawn by tosh?

If the anime ever does the final couple arcs I'd rather an original anime ending.

I gotta ask, what fuels sorinafags at this point? It's potential, like the rest of the manga, has been flushed down the toilet. Erina is truly a shit character at this point that may have very well ruined the manga with her terrible non-development. Souma for the most part never displays interest either and just inadvertently helps her. It's not a hilarious trainwreck like the rest of the manga, it just kind of exists. So what about this ship keeps you guys invested anymore?

S

took long enough

At this point, Asahi had a more complete arc than Erina, so I agree with the original point about effort.

>no valentines
>no christmas
>no birthday
It was free money

An attempt was finally made to detail each challenger's dish and they threw in some backstory for Mana, Azami, and Soumom. That's a decent lot of something compared to the upcoming rush job that will be Soma vs. Erina.

I think like most shounen pairings they just want to gloat their “win” over the losing side and want their favorite girl to get a happy ending, but there’s no one to gloat over since majority of Megumifags don’t care. If not any of those two reasons then I guess they just love their 30mins of conversation in the entire manga.

The mangaka did question whether he should have Sorina or Somegu, so I guess even Tsukuda ain't loyal. It is what it is though. Probably neither will win though.

Man these last few chapters have been pretty fine. Would've been great had the manga not been rushed and actually built up to all this properly without jumping the shark. A shame.

Tsukuda said he was more for Soumegu in then beginning then was move for Sorina. It’s obvious that he didn’t move on from Soumegu since he had Megumi dream of Souma.

Shit like this is why I believe we'll get an open end as Tsukuda can't plan shit out and is indecisive, even apparently was fine with making Asahi, an NTR plot device, not evil.

Imagine planning a ship from a fucking one-shot, but not being able to deliver it properly in the actual manga that went over 200 chapters. Imagine being that incompetent of a writer. Wew.

considering that it was set up right from the very beginning and hinted at throughout the life of the series id have to say its because of the sunk cost fallacy.

Same can be said for the manga though. Must be something more specific.

Black Clover definitely needs to end, the plot is going nowhere and the anime looks like shit 90 percent of the time. While they're at it, cancel Boruto

Just goes to show the sheer number of people who gave up on this series. It's amazing, really.

I've been rooting for Erina since day one and I've been waiting for the day that Erina acknowledges Soma as a chef. It's just so hard to see them not ending up together and all this tsundere stuff from Erina is going to make that day so fucking worth it and more satisfying.

so Yea Forums what went wrong? asahi arc was a fucking mistake. there goes another manga that doesnt know when and how to end.

Does she have any chance to win the soumabowl?

There were only two legit runners, and both look like they'll lose. So no. There was no chance.

No and that's a good thing for her.

I could see that. I feel like Tsukuda is just trying to piss off his readers these days. The introduction of Asahi, Jou getting BTFO, side characters are still completely irrelevant despite it being the final arc, NTR bait, Erina being a damsel in distress again, Soumom gets one chapter and that’s it while lame Mana gets more focus and importance. Every reader hates Asahi, but he proceeds to let him off the hook story wise despite kidnapping a person.

People remember stagiaire fondly, in no small part because it was essentially the last time Souma grew as a character. I can't blame the villains (Azami and Asahi) for Souma's character. They did exactly what they were supposed to do and provided him with incredible challenges to overcome. The fact that he did so without growing as a person at all is staggeringly bad writing.

You have to realize that things and ideas eventually change. You'll have a hard time finding any manga that fulfills it's Chapter 0 promise after 300+ chapters simply because that's like 7 years for your mind to change.

"Do not attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by stupidity" is how I look at it, but you could be right.
An open end is on the table either way since we're clearly not dealing with someone aiming to satisfy their audience after the whole Asahi ending. Tsukada even went out of his way to avoid wrapping up Souma vs Jou with Asahi and now has 3 chapters left, so that won't be addressed in any satisfying way either. Guess Souma never truly defeated his dad.

set up with azami was the fucking peak. problems came with the execution and everything else after that. tsukuda wrote himself into a corner where the match outcomes were predictable and repetitive. in short, he was forced into taking the series into another direction which became the trainwreck we know today.

Tsukuda never changed his mind . This shit was there from the first volume and he still failed to write the romance decently. Quite making excuses for the guy especially when he’s taking the piss on us readers.

Why do you think Erina will lose?

Peak of the series was the Stagiaire Arc.

Good for a dicking but Alice is superior in every way.

Honestly, them not ending together would justify his absolute lack of ability to give them anything. It would mean he settled on them just not being a couple. Which is ok I guess.

Alice is a fucking miracle of the universe. There is no better girl than Alice. She is perfection. That she is also already taken is just further proof of how best girl she is.

I'd say Asahi himself wasn't a bad idea. It's the whole dark chefs thing was ridiculously dumb from the start. Which hurt Asahi by association.
>Everyone not named Soma getting almost no screen time and jobbing to El Hermano was a mistake.
>BLUE being full of nothing but jobber fodder was a mistake.
In fairness a lot of that was likely because the manga was axed. They pretty clearly got word sometime during the third preliminary in the 209s that they'd been cancelled and everything after that was rushed to wrap up the tournament and get to Souma vs Asahi with sufficient time left to do it right.

Same. Romance wise, I'm expecting an Air Gear like ending.

Why do you think she’ll win? It’s not like her or Soma have canon concrete feelings for one another and in shonen you need at least one/sided canon feelings.

He has avoided confirming their relationship or even trying to show Souma/Erina love each other, even this last chapter. Souma didn't acknowledge Asahi's reason for cooking for Erina. You'd think Souma would agree that's a good reason if he loved Erina too, but nope. He doesn't do that. So probably Souma is going to end up like Jou and graduate a single man to find his woman somewhere out in the world. Souma will also go back to his restaurant while Erina has to oversee Totsuki. Souma has no interest in Mana, Erina, or anything else. He just wants his diner back so that's what we'll get. Souma x Diner.

Actually a misconception. Not all shonens do this, only long-running ones, and even then, only after buildup.
Though it's usually delusional to think otherwise yeah. Even Shingeki no Kyojin threads have people convinced Eren won't end with anyone even though that's probably untrue.

>no spoilers yet
truly a dead series

It really is. His whole motivation for competing in this tournament was never Erina, but the diner. That's what got him to remember his mother, and what enabled him to defeat Asahi. The diner is Souma's defining motivation and always will be. It's beautiful and consistent so how could anyone not ship it?

And there is nothing wrong with that provided they actually cook. Even disregarding Asahi the main problem with the current arc is that it has barely featured cooking at all before this last match.

I dont read the manga but Erina being cold as ice and Soma being able to reduce her to an embarrassed school girl with her crush is so fucking adorable. Can't wait for them to be canon.

Yup, but nothing in this series makes sense anymore so no use trying to be logical.

No, the manga should've ended there.

>Jump needs a new ecchi romcom

Jump needs a yuri or yaoi romcom to make their stuff more brand.

That would be 10/10. Pretty sure sh was more of a land shark than a loan shark

no one likes Megumi-type beta chicks. Literally anyone but Megumi or Kurase is better for Souma

We're going to have an ending like Bleach aren't we

Meant land shark. Fuck me my memory is hazy.

Megumi is perfect.

Honestly I just want to get to the epilogue already where Soma and Erina is running a small restaurant somewhere

>n-no it wasn't, mehgoo was important l, I swear.
Obviously, any story needs characters besides the main ones in this kind of manga, but the point was that Erina and Souma have always been the driving force if the manga. That has quite literally never changed, whether the manga did goor or bad in sales. The amount of people who read it exclusively for characters like Mehgoo was minuscule.

Who do you think will run Totsuki, Mana? Azami? Fucking Asahi?

I think that guy was saying it takes a perfect blend of all the characters working together to bring the story to its fullest potential.
Like ingredients in a dish.

Yeah because a country bumpkin is a better for a hard-working creative cook than the most sensible palate in the world

>ending like Bleach
at least bleach got novels to fill in some blanks. this is probably getting nothing.

Alice.

Now can Tosh go back to drawing porn again?

Where did I say that Megumi was super important? I said that she was a good character that was developing nicely. Same with our MC. Us readers genuinely rooted for him because we liked him. Early SnS sold good and did well because it was well-written. Sure Soma and Erina were more important story-wise being the MC and heroine, but they alone could never carry the manga. The manga succeeded at one point due to the overall story that included many characters hence why sales were at the peak during the Stagiaire Arc which focused on different characters. Soma and Erina have been the main focus for a while now and the manga has fallen, in terms of writing and sales and ranking. Don’t be so fucking stupid.

How would Megumi and Kurase interact if they met?

yes please.

Nope souma x knife is better

He just wants to run his diner man. He doesn't want to become god chef. Only reason he wants Erina to say delicious is because she hasn't, but once she does it's over and he's done.

Daddy and Mommy issues at the same time.

I've never felt like they tried to make the shipping possibilities all that mysterious. It always seemed like Tsukuda was just going 'here are the couples. They'll get there eventually'.
Soma/Erina, Tsukasa/Rindou, Dog/Alice and Isshiki/Nene are the obvious examples, I bet we will see those pairings in the epilogue.

reminder that souma x loli is the true end

Is there any fucking chance whatsoever for there to be sunk ship butthurt when the series ends?

I legit teared up when Megumin presented the judges with a "light" dish because they were eating the whole day.
Megumin should win the mc bowl.

if it’s an open end up then yea. sorinafags will seethe.

Megumi is too good for Soma so no thanks.

I hope Megloomy wins just so I can watch Yea Forums and leddit implode with rage.

is this shit real? Looks more like Deadman wonderland or some other edgy show.

She has actual fans, though. If you want maximum seething, hope for open end, random girl end, Kurase end, etc.

It better be 1 chapter of Soma vs Erina, and the rest about pairing characters and just straight up sex. If this happens then this series will have been worth it.

>Just getting into the Black Clover anime
Crunchyshill powers worked on you, brainlet-san.

Does this still get doujins?

Please don't tell me it's getting another fucking anime announced, S1 was fun S2 was okay S3 was fucking dogshit.

Wouldn't that be a good ending though? Like his dad he then has a gf that isn't a genius cook and just your regular shonen doormat?
Shonen protags never get with the capable girls.

Rent fucking free. Some of you are so obsessed with Megumifags.

Odds of the final chapter flashing forward to their kid(s) are very high.

AHAHAHAHAHA

It's been too long and I still don't remember why Smoke and Best Boobs are shipped.

This

I thought you want something that would make people seethe? Regardless if it's good or not, shipperfags still want their waifu to win so any other end will make them seethe.

>NTR shit
So they reflect the canon.

>big announcemet
What if this axe is just an excuse for Tosh to jump the ship and they'll announce a direct sequel featuring some other artist?

I remember when Sorinafags would shit up threads about their future romance and all they got was bare bones in the end. Crazy how things turned out.

I thought everyone wanted Soma and Erina to fuck?

wasted characters

Hmm? Oh no, I just figured after BNHA didn't work out to give BC a chance. I watched Naruto back in the day and heard they were similar. It's bland.

Nope she deserves better guy who not fucking MC

Souma is a complete dumbass and I'll never get why you all want to pair him up so much.

Side characters that tended to show up together, that's it. Same goes for half those ships

Nigga with how SnS has been for the past couple years we’ll most likely get an ending on par with Prison School.

Eh, I don't care either way. I like Erina more than pairing her with Soma. I do like the pairing and I believe it will happen at the end but even if it doesn't, I won't get ass blasted.

Attached: bgv27p8.jpg (637x251, 159K)

I will never forgive this ending

See if he can write better than Tsukada when he works on a new serialised work

A new anime season or a film?

The last volume

Except Curry/his strangely young looking mentor (which is hot I suppose), Tsukasa/Rindou+Shinomiya/Hinako which are patrician as well, and Erina+Megumi's pairs, yeah you're right.
Alice/Dog is already canon.

Makes sense. I remember the last volume of Bleach was revealed November and it finished up in August. If it’s out October then that means this will finish up end of June/close to July. Maybe a few chapters on the Jump App that Gintama moved to.

A manga like shokugeki no soma can get axed ? How does this shit work ? Could naruto have get axed ?

Naruto was a masterpiece compared to this

Huh? SnS was nowhere near Naruto popularity. Ever. Naruto is known in different parts of the world and sold over 200 million copies during its run. The last chapter was all in color which is something that’s only happened three times before that in WSJ history.

Naruto was shit, but it was popular shit. Bleach was obviously closer to Naruto popularity and it got axed.

Megumi is shit and she's not even good enough for Souma lite beta (Takumi).

Souma's decline has been massive, I think the most recent volume had its worst first week since volume 2? Not surprising at all to see the plug get pulled when something is trending downward so much, you have to really fuck up for that to happen.

>thinks soma is better than takumi
Your shit taste knows no bounds I see.

Will my husband appear even for one panel before the end?

What a faggot. Real salt mine would be a Kurase/Nikumi end.

But wait the 3 chapters or ova before celebrating Or you will be btfo hard when Megumi will end up with soma

Time skip

dont worry push clover and dr push are the next ones

>>soma is a shit main character that regressed
You mean Erina

If you don't want people to laugh at you, then stop being so pathetic.

So many good boys, wasted.

>stop talking about a character I don’t like
How whiny can you fucks be?

Both regressed as far as I’m concerned.

This is Yea Forums, THE internet den of contrarianism. Of course 80 to 90% of the fanbase wants it, but you're just more likely to see special snowflake opinions here than any other place on the internet.

I’m talking about relative effort. Other characters didn’t even have their dish shown at all.

Why would I care about a pairing that had bare bones?

Takumi is legit awful, but even him is too good for Omegoomi.

Probably as an adult in an epilogue chapter, hopefully we'll see the E10 one last time with new looks and learn whats going on in their lives. My guesses

Eishi- Pretty much the same I think, with Rindo
Rindo- Shorter hair like in her early years
Megishima- Still buff as hell. Maybe he'll have a beard since its manly
Momo- Still a Loli and married to Saito
Saito- Mohawk is gone, more mature look
Nene- Engaged to Isshiki, looks the same
Isshiki- Looks the same
Kuga- Longer hair, more wild
Eizan- Who cares

What exactly is awful about Takumi?

This place used to be a hotbed of Sorina wankery. The fact that most of them jumped ship is a testament to how far this series has fallen.

Because it at least will get barebones as opposed to nada? Besides, nobody gives a shit about what you care for.

Basically, anything but Sorina will result in salt. Though even (r)eddit admits Sorina is irredeemable trash at this point that makes little sense with terrible buildup.

I don’t think any of these characters are going to show up. I don’t even think we’re getting a timeskip epilogue. Think about it. A big portion of our cast is currently at BLUE so I have feeling everything will end after the match between Soma and Erina. I wouldn’t put above Tsukuda to literally end the manga with Erina admitting his cooking is delicious and that’s it.

And nobody gives a fuck about you shipfags want including Tsukuda himself seeing as he gave you 30mins of Sorina conversation in the entire manga along with that whole NTR shit where Erina went 50 shades of red with El Hermano.

You're probably right, I'm just use to Shonens ending with a flash forward epilogue showing most of the characters endings.

Or else Tsukuda goes fuck Erina, fuck Mehgoo, fuck shippers, fuck Shokugeki and FUCK SHUEISHA and makes Soma end up with his childhood bullying victim (the one who was the recieving end of Soma's experiments).

These chapters are pretty short and usually devoid of content. Expect a Bleach ending of disappointment. Though, Bleach's epilogue was 2 chapters so expect worse.

Kuga was the only reason I stuck with this manga during the Azami arc. I tried to read Hermano arc several times, but just couldn't stay for more than a couple of chapters. I want to see my boy one last time, but yeah it's probably wishful thinking.

>barely any charaterization whatsoever
>acts like another souma fangirl for 90% of the manga
>never ever taken seriously as a rival
>has a well of tradition to draw from since Italian cuisine is one of the world's largest and richest, but he only cooks pedestrian garbage you can get in fucking Alfredo's
Pretty terrible, famiglia.

Nearly everyone who once read this shit jumped ship on Yea Forums. It's not really that surprising that a very small number of autistic but loud characterfags (read that as mehgloomyfaggots, the most recalcitrant Soumafags and other assorted waifufags) are the only ones left.

It stopped being a masterpiece a long time ago.

I could see Soma ending up alone. He simply wanted Erina to say his cooking is delicious and that’s it. Soma will be content when that happens and then the end. Unless Tsukuda skips the entire match and it ends with an Erina victory and then Soma vowing that he’ll get her to say its delicious one day. I really don’t see how he’s going to wrap even half of what he’s put on the table in three chapters that don’t even last 20 pages.

>Find a woman you want to cook for
Soma is getting with Erina though I absolutely hate it, it's gonna happen. It's destiny at this point

When was the last time that quote was mentioned?

Only if he's a good guy now.

I’m surprised there weren’t any Erinafags around to laugh at Megumi jobbing to Asahi or gush over Soma sort of defending her from him. Why would they disappear when the plot is basically catering to them?

>completely regressed as a character
>eats up 95% of the paneltime
>his whole NO NEED TO TAKE ANYTHING SERIOUSLY XD attitude became annoying after a certain point
>tsukuda still tries to paint him as the underdog even after everything and readers are sick of it
>literally never used any techniques learned from the academy to win
Soma is 100x worse. Die mad about it.

Last chapter actually. Souma didn't care at all though, just like the first 3 times it was mentioned. He still just wants his diner and to beat his dad.

I think in the last chapter when Jou was talking to Asahi in the flashback

So Tsukuda mentions it, but Soma doesn’t care for it? Is he just baiting shipfags at this point?

Jou told Asahi in a flashback, which was triggered when Souma asked Asahi why he wanted to marry Erina. Asahi told him the quote, so it was mentioned twice.
But yeah, Souma doesn't care at all still. RIP romance.

I would be okay with this.

I really hope so.
