Re: Shokugeki No Soma Manga Chapter 140 Discussion & 141 Predictions
Eizan is like the food that got too moist and became really soggy which you leave at the end of your plate because no one wants to eat it. And even though his personality makes us readers really hate his guts, you gotta give the guy some credit. Everyone is saying he's a shit chef, and even I was before I thought about it. Eizan is probably fairly skilled in order to be the 9th seat. He has had to have defeated a ton of people to get where he is. The bribes probably wouldn't have been allowed in the Tootsuki ruled by the previous director (even though he's allowed almost anything before, I really can't see him allowing such a mockery of the entire idea of Shokugeki).
Regardless, he must have defeated a great deal of chefs to get where he is today and to be so respected. Additionally, it was heavily implied that he gets most of his funding from being an Elite Ten member. So it seems unlikely that he'd be brining before he was a member. Don't get me wrong - I hate his guts too. No, seriously, I wish he'd get hit by a bus. He's so stuck up like a Highschool bully. BUT I still gotta give credit where it's due, and I'm really thinking he'll give Soma a tough battle. Even without the bribes, he probably has some tricks up his sleeve. The chapter was a lot of build up with not a lot happening xD. But it was still cool. Soma is the only one I know who can say "why dont you come in for tea?"and make it sound super bad ass. 3.5/5 chapter for me. I'm super hyped for the next chapter.
