Food Wars! The Fifth Plate

Marinate1016★ 7

So 13 weeks in and now at the end of Gou no Sara, I never got to a point where I felt this season was as bad as people had hyped it up to be. I waited week after week for it to get awful and it just never came for me. I thoroughly enjoyed every single moment of this final season and saw it as a victory lap of sorts for the series. We saw everyone come full circle this season and show off their development. Of particular importance for me was the growth that Megumi, Erina and Aldini have had. For me, thatwas enough to really enjoy the final season. I understand that this is an unpopular opinion and that's fine, you can judge for yourself, but if you're a fan of SnS, you should definitely give this last season a try. Production wise, you can definitely tell JC staff started to rely on the established name of SnS instead of actually putting a lot of effort into the show. The panning camera shots, off model characters and other quality control issues are not a huge deal to me, because I personally watch things for the story and how they make me feel rather than as an art critic, but they do exist and are noticeable. I also could feel that pacing was very rushed especially in the final half of the season. It felt like the Shokgeki's were on 2.5x speed and the detail and educational bits that we're accustomed to seeing were just not there anymore. It felt like they instead transitioned to relying on the girls getting naked as our sole source of entertainment during shokugeki's. I was able to overlook this because I'm easy to please, you may not be. Overall, you can definitely see a dip in quality from SnS season 1 to season 5. It's gradual, it's painful and it's pretty sad because of how well done season 1-3 were. But, it is it the sad reality of ongoing shows. You either die the hero or live long enough to see yourself become Food Wars Season 5. The anime original ending wasn't bad to me, but it wasn't great like how I felt at the end of Totsuki Train either. I was still left wanting more. Despite all the flaws, I still love the series and enjoyed this a lot even with its issues. Shokugeki no Soma Gou no Sara gets 7 foodgasms out of 10 from me.

After watching it until last episode, I know how disappointing this is, really. The story begins with the introduction of the arrival of summer, the students of Totsuki Academy must fight the first stage of the exam. After that, some teacher comes to Totsuki Academy, his name is Asahi. He's a ugly bastard who are interested with Nakiri's oppai.... And then the last tournament "BLUE" begins. The story of Souma's mom Now, what really caught the attention of the personal writer was the telling of the figure of Souma's mom. This is very interesting because in the previous seasons, the figure of Souma's mom has never even beenshown or even told, her figure seemed to have never even been thought of. So Souma's mom appearance in season 5 is very, very surprising. There are times when we feel hurt. There are times when we want to run from reality. There are times when we don't want to do anything. We can rest, we can stop but we cannot give up. If you can't get up, ask someone else for help. If we are already destroyed by our own mistakes, then wait for the right time to get back up. If you can't invite other people, walk side by side with them. This is the last season, I hope you can watch this final series and don't stop at the middle of the season. I know it is torturing you but an ending is not always tragic. If you already read manga, I beg you to don't miss this one, I know you are bored but to judge an anime before you watch it, isn't that weird?
