    entertaining

    This started soo weird i honestly dropped this and it took me a long time to start this again but im glad i did! I love soma and the other students! I honestly love everything except the reactions😭😭 and time flies fast when i watch this.... i didn't realize i finish everything in less than a week. This is a good anime definitely worth watching with great characters!

    Funny and heartfelt

    This is prob my favorite anime ever. I'll admit it, the fan service drew me in, but what i found inside was a true gem of a dish that made me laugh and cry, and in the end left me with a warmth in my soul, much as I'd imagine Megumi's cooking to feel like.

    The comedic gags throughout the series are pretty solid, but the sentimental stories are really what kept me coming back. Soma's rivalrous but fun relationship with both his dad and his friends set just the right tone of tenseness and tenderness throughout the series. When he or his friends or themselves at risk to support each other, it builds just the proper tension to enhance the artwork and visuals of the cooking scenes to be hyperbolically over the top dramatic.

    And speaking of dramatic, the musical score throughout the series is exceptional! I had the season 1 ost playlist on YouTube last night as i was doing my own cooking in my kitchen and the time flew by and my dish ended up tasting like joy and love!

    I'm glad the series ended in season 5 as you could tell the writing was running out of steam, as they all do in most series. The final season starts off a little lackluster and the storyline is a bit contrived, but midway through, it starts to pull in the

    One of the better comedy anime

    I absolutely enjoyed this anime. It has some of the funniest things that I have ever seen. You just have to watch the first three episodes to know that it is truly glorious. If you do not like it by then, just go ahead and stop.

    The only thing I think is important to mention is that people who are not all too fond of ecchi stuff might find it unappealing.

    But other than that it has everything that you want to have in an anime. Character development, comedy, PERFECT animation (the visuals are insane), fantastic soundtracks (why does a cooking anime have soundtracks that rival attack on titan soundtracks?!), tension and some very heartfelt moments.

    Considering that there are not that many really good comedy anime out there (you probably can count them with both hands), you should give it a go.

    So much fun, and the FOOD!

    I'm writing this after finishing season 2 of Food Wars, and I forgot just how fun and entertaining this show is. Once you get past the sexual overreactions, it's way easier to get invested in the characters and wait in anticipation for the food they would make.

    Maybe not one to watch with the family, but definitely a good one.
