    Good Animation with Food being the star

    An anime on food sure piqued my interest. It was good enough for binge-watch, the highlight is the display of one scrumptious dish after another. The animation is really good in displaying the dishes, from presentation, to aroma, to inside filling, it's able to capture the essence of well-made dishes. The story itself is straightforward, a young boy's dream of becoming a top chef, it covers his growth and battles in a culinary school against others with similar dreams, although unoriginal it works. The characters come in different colours and unique personality but in the end all likeable, there is no evil person here. There is one problem with the anime, it may be the highlight for some or put others off, the extra dose of ecchi and fan service, it does go overboard in expressing characters' reactions after they eat the food, still, it's an anime, and is kind of expected. In the end, it was a very entertaining anime for me, I ended up watching both the dubbed season 1 & 2 and really enjoyed them.

    Got back to season 3 after a break of three years, didn't enjoy it as much, felt they are dragging the anime now.

    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

    It's amazing and heartfelt!

    This is a masterpiece in its own. A masterchef-chef wars-cooking show with a heart. I enjoy Yukihira's adventures while learning how to cook in different ways. It is light and fun and easy to follow.

    Very unpredictable

    This anime is very unpredictable. You can't predict exacly what's going to happen. That's got me interested. You really should give it a watch. Also the art is also top notch. I really recommend it to watch.
