Now then...

Let's begin the final segment
of this training camp's program.

Please, enjoy a full-course dinner
served up by our graduates.

Yes!

THE MAN CALLED "CARNAGE"

All students, please collect your luggage
and board your assigned buses.

Be sure to return your room keys
to the front desk.

Also, make sure that
you've left nothing behind.

Wow!

It's finally over!

And all of us managed to make it.

-Right?
-Right?

It's almost like, it was over in a flash!

True enough.

It sure was tough, though.

Got that right!

But did you guys really have to keep
getting together in my room,

right up till the last night?

You know you had a good time too, Marui.

Gah!

Even last night...

Go on, draw it.

Get that old maid!

Let's continue this game at the dorm!

What?

Maybe we should invite
Isshiki-senpai, too.

Or we could play another card game!

Shinomiya-senpai!

So you both made it, huh?

Somehow, thank goodness.

That luggage...

Are you already heading back to France?

Yes, I can't keep my restaurant
closed indefinitely.

Also, I know now what I have to do.

I'll make my restaurant, Shino's,
the most famous spot in Paris,

and get three stars.

There's still so much I want to do...

It's gotten to where having

the Brousse-Poiret Award
just isn't enough.

Three stars...

Incredible!

No Japanese chef in France
has gotten three stars!

You two...

Wait right there!

I won't let you pull the rug out
from under us, Shinomiya-senpai.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Soma Yukihira...

Are you interested
at all in Italian cooking?

Tadokoro-kun,

I think your skills would grow
more at a sushi restaura--

No!

I'm taking Megumi-chan back with me,
and treating her right!

Wh-- what?

You've already spoken to them, have you?

Dojima-san!

Th-- this is...

It's your assessment.

"Assessment"?

This training camp also
serves to recruit personnel

once they've graduated from the academy.

Former graduates will take time off
from their restaurants

and work here as sous-chefs.

This serves as a place
to recruit new talent.

Finding talented chefs is no easy task.

Aah, that makes sense.

To think, that's what
this camp was all about.

It looks like Megumi still doesn't get
why those members tried to recruit her.

Yukihira-kun, you could find
your place at the Tohtsuki Resort.

You're welcome here anytime.

I'm honored to hear that,

but I've got "Yukihira" to look after.

I see.

You have a family restaurant,
is that right?

Yes! My dad and I run it together.

I don't know where he is
or what he's up to right now, but...

one day, I'm sure I'll get his approval.

I wanna be the chef that
keeps Yukihira going!

Senpai, you want to go
for three stars, is that right?

You heard that, did you?

What do you say I go
over there and help you?

I see.

I'd hire you on as a busboy.

What was that?

Dojima-san?

Is something wrong?

Uh... No.

Well, Soma-kun,
I guess this is where we part.

Yeah, see you later.

Oh, no! My hand towel!

What? You forgot something?

We're about to leave.

-I'll go get--
-That's fine.

I'll go myself.

I'll find my own way back to the academy.

You go on ahead
and take my luggage for me.

O-- okay.

Thank goodness I found it!

Man, we sure had our fill
at Tohtsuki Resort.

I-- I'm on the wrong bus...

Lookin' forward to next year, huh?

When several express buses are gathered
together, it's quite easy to get confused.

When leaving the bus...

SOMA IS HERE

...please be sure to remember the vehicle
number and where it is parked.

Oh!

You're the young man who made
the soufflé omelets, aren't you?

"EGG MAN" TOKUZO

Ah! You're the egg man!

That was quite well done.

Um...

I'm so sorry I wasted so many eggs!

Yes, well...

So long as you patronize
Tokuzo Brand eggs, that's fine.

At the restaurant
you'll one day own, that is.

Sir!

And use my green beans, too!

"GREEN BEANS" KOSUKE

And my cheese, as well.

"NATURAL CHEESE" KYUSAKU

Want some rice crackers, young man?

Here, have some candy.

Ah, thank you. Thanks very much. Thanks.

Wait, this ain't the time for this!

My bus!

Uh... Um...

FWOOOO...

They left me!

For real?

I finish the training camp,

then get into a situation like this?

Wh-- why are you here?

"Why"?

Well, this and that happened...

Mistress Erina!

We've arranged for a car.

They were able to send out just one.

Did that student miss the bus as well?

Want some rice crackers?

I don't eat those.

-How 'bout some candy?
-No, thank you.

Come to think of it...

You said you looked forward to
seeing me fail one of these days, huh?

But I made it. Whaddya think about that?

I don't even have to look
to picture that smug face of his!

Go ahead, keep floundering
on the razor's edge.

I'm sure you won't be picked
to be a member of the Selection.

"Selection"?

You don't even know about that?

It's Tohtsuki's legendary...

TOHTSUKI FALL SELECTION

Fall Selection.

It's a festival
where the chosen few first-years

show their skills in a battle of cuisine.

It's the first opportunity for students
to display their abilities off campus,

in front of the academy's
directors and investors,

all gathered in the same place.

The screening process has already begun.

Did you not notice?

Members from the Selection Committee
came and went during the training camp.

Oh, yeah!

Those guys wearing suits, huh?

Put simply, the goal of the training camp
wasn't just to thin our ranks.

Its secret intention was to determine
which students would move up the ranks.

A festival of fine cuisine?

Sounds like fun!

It kinda gets the blood racing, huh?

And I'm telling you,
there's no way they'll choose you for it!

What's with you anyway?

The things you say...

I gained the experience
that comes from messing up.

Experience from "messing up"?

That's simply making excuses!

For a chef, failure is unacceptable!

I don't know...

I do!

Only perfect dishes
should grace the dining table.

That is the essence of haute cuisine!

Like the dishes of that man...

Huh? What was that?

Nothing at all.

Say, Nakiri, why did you miss the bus?

There's no need to discuss that with you.

I see.

This is, uh...

Yeah, pretty awkward.

Maybe I'll just sleep.

Snooze...

There it is!

Thank goodness.

I see...

So, Soma Yukihira is your son?

SEAT NO. 1: GIN DOJIMA
SEAT NO. 2: JOICHIRO SAIBA

Joichiro...

Back and forth, back and forth.

Vroom, vroom!

Back and forth, back and forth...

The training camp should be about done.

Things will get lively here again.

My, that certainly was fast.

Well, well, honestly.

If you were going to come back,
you could've at least called.

You still don't have much
common sense, do you, boy?

Well, I found myself in the area...

I'm back.

Heh heh, heh heh, heh heh heh!

A SINGLE SCENE FROM THE TRAINING CAMP.

Hey, we're back!

We're back!

Soma-kun, you came back
via a hotel car, did you?

Must be nice!

You're a VIP!

Nah, that ain't true.

In any case,
I'm glad you all made it back.

You're all tired, I'm sure.

Tonight, you'll be treated to a feast.

Score!

Yes!

It's been a while since
we've had Fumio-san's food!

Well, I'm not the one who'll be cooking.

Hey, Soma, you're back?

Then lend me a hand.

Sure.

Handle the mise en place, would you?

I've already made the stock.

Yeah, sure.

Wait, I just fell back into old patterns!

What are you even doing here?

What's this? You know him?

Wh-- who is he?

A graduate of Tohtsuki Academy

and a former Kyokusei resident.

A graduate of Tohtsuki?

Talk about a generation gap.

You don't know the former No. 2 seat
on the Ten, Joichiro Saiba?

Former No. 2 seat on the Ten?

"Saiba"?

Ah, the rice should be about ready, Soma.

Who cares?

Just tell me what's going on, Dad!

They're father and son?

SON OF THE FORMER NO. 2 SEAT ON THE TEN

Hmm, that makes sense.

My dad's a Tohtsuki graduate...

He lived at Kyokusei...

And he was on the Ten...

Sure enough, processing this
all at once is taking a lot of strength...

Whoa! Yukihira's actually flustered!

"That's Yukihira-kun's
father, all right"...

I guess you could say.

So you're Joichiro Saiba?

Huh? You know of me?

Yes, I've seen your name
mentioned in old documents.

You're the "Wandering Chef,"

who's traveled the world and proven
himself at all the famous restaurants.

But one day, you suddenly disappeared from
the front lines of the culinary world.

To those in the know, you're a legend.

I'm the current No. 7 seat on the Ten.

My name is Satoshi Isshiki.

It's an honor to meet the great Saiba.

Well, I go by the name "Yukihira" now.

Or you can just call me "Joichiro."

H-- he didn't bat an eye
at how Isshiki-senpai is dressed!

That's a former member of the Ten for you.

That's the real issue here?

My dad's that famous?

You didn't know any of this?

Uh, I only recently found out
that he'd worked overseas.

Blah blah!

For some reason,

he'd get phone calls sometimes
in a language I didn't understand,

and there were a lot of photos
of my dad with foreigners.

I thought that sort of thing
was common in every household.

It ain't! Open your eyes!

To think, Soma-kun's father
is someone so great...

All right!

Let's make a toast!

To everyone having made it
through training camp!

Today, eat and drink your fill!

Let's eat!

And cheers!

F-- food made by
a former member of the Ten...

Just what will it taste like?

I-- I'm kinda nervous!

Here you are. Please, eat.

O-- okay!

I can see it.

I can see it!

The landscape of a country...

...I've never been to!

It's rising up inside me!

This flavor is so...

Arabian!

This is super delicious!

This paste that's on top of the lamb...

What is it?

That's harissa.

It's an all-purpose condiment
from North Africa,

made from hot peppers
and other ingredients.

I also took a page from traditional
Middle Eastern cooking

and added parsley and garam masala.

Jo... Joichiro-san, what is this?

That's zuppa di pesce.

It's a Ligurian-style seafood soup
that uses stockfish.

Joichiro-san, what's this?

A-- and tell me about this, too!

Well, that's...

Joichiro-san is...

He seems like a real man!

Yes, he's so grown-up and handsome.
I'm swooning!

Don't you kinda see that in his son, too?

You think, in the future...

Maybe Yukihira will turn out like that?

BA-DMP BA-DMP

What the heck?

They were all so down in the dumps,

but the second they tasted that food,
their hearts were warmed.

This cooking just brims...

with the personality of the man
who made it!

This is so good, I can't stand it!

Awesome! Everything is super delicious!

What about this one?

It's disgusting!

Oh, that?

I tried replicating a snake dish
I ate last month.

Yeah, it's disgusting.

You chop it up with the skin still on,

then boil it without prepping it at all.

Dad, this is seriously bad.

Right?

I think it's horrible enough
to get into my Best Ten.

If it's horrible, it should be
the "Worst Ten," right?

THE YUKIHIRAS, FATHER AND SON
KEEPING THEIR DISTANCE

Yeah, they're father and son, all right.

Well, bizarre foods aside, Joichiro...

You were the man
they once called "Carnage."

Well, you've become quite good
at making considerate dishes.

Yeah...

You should let Gin taste this sometime.

Yeah, you're right.

Gin? By "Gin," don't tell me...

Yes, I'm sure he put on lots
of airs at the training camp.

Tohtsuki Resort's
executive chef, Gin Dojima.

GIN DOJIMA, TOHTSUKI RESORT'S EXECUTIVE
CHEF & MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

GIN DOJIMA
2ND-YEAR HIGH SCHOOL DIVISION

Look, this is Gin.

And this is Joichiro.

JOICHIRO SAIBA
2ND-YEAR HIGH SCHOOL DIVISION

Back when they were second-years
in high school.

They're both so young!

Fumio-san, don't keep
showing stuff like that.

What's the harm?

So Dojima was a resident
of Kyokusei Dorm, too?

For real?

Gin Dojima was the No. 1 seat on the Ten.

Joichiro Saiba was the No. 2 seat.

Back then, those two ushered
in the Golden Age of Kyokusei.

They won countless Food Wars,

snatching up land and expanding
the dorm's grounds,

contributing funds to improve
the dorm's kitchen,

and even securing supply routes
for our ingredients.

And they paid for it with what
they'd won through their own strengths.

We were getting to where we could
practically form our own country!

That field you all plowed,

the dedicated malted rice area,

the chicken coop area...

Gin and Joichiro had
a hand in all of that.

And yet...

Each year, Gin never fails to send
a New Year's card or some sort of gift.

Joichiro, couldn't you send
a letter once in a while?

Well, that's why I come
visit here sometimes, right?

You've got some nerve.

You drop in unexpectedly
and leave when you feel like it.

STRAY CAT, LOYAL DOG

Truly, some legendary Tohtsuki graduates.

Well, I never graduated.

Huh? Really?

But you were the No. 2 seat.

Well, a lot happened.

Did Gin seem like he's doing well?

I guess.

Dad...

This place...

Kyokusei Dorm...

What was it like for you?

It was fun.

Everyone brushing up on their cooking
skills, in whatever way they liked...

Dad...

Wanna sleep in my room?

Yeah, well...

Soma, you're in Room 303?

That's right.

Right in the middle of that room...

there's a stain on the floor
from when a pot of stew got spilled.

That was my room.

Fumio-san, let me borrow an empty room!

Okay!

My dad was here...

in this room?

Joichiro Saiba, huh?

I...

I don't think I know much
at all about him.

Soma! Soma!

You up?

Yeah.

I'm in the kitchen right now.

Come on down here, and bring your knife.

I'm gonna help with breakfast?

Come to think of it,

why did my dad even come back to Japan?

Was it for a job or something?

Ah, there you are.

Have you kept your knife sharp?

Of course.

Yesterday, to get rid of the smell
of the sharpening stone, I--

Okay, fine.

So, sorry to throw you right into this,

but I wanna see how far you've come.

Or how far you haven't.

Show me, right here and now.

I'd say it's been too long since
we've had a food battle...

CARNAGE

...Soma.
