Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,980 --> 00:00:02,980
The Third Plate
2
00:00:00,980 --> 00:00:02,980
Sixteen
3
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,230
Hayama-kun?
4
00:00:12,030 --> 00:00:13,710
Hey, Hayama.
5
00:00:13,710 --> 00:00:16,780
You have a weird badge on your blazer.
6
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,240
You sure you didn't grab
someone else's by mistake?
7
00:00:19,240 --> 00:00:22,460
There's no mistake here, Yukihira.
8
00:00:22,460 --> 00:00:28,090
He is Hayama Akira, the newest member
of the Totsuki Elite Ten and Central.
9
00:00:28,090 --> 00:00:32,720
He is the ninth seat, on a provisional basis.
10
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,720
So that's how it is, Yukihira.
11
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,880
We're no longer on the same playing field.
12
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,650
I'm in a position where I can test you.
13
00:00:40,650 --> 00:00:43,730
Acting all high and mighty now that
you're finally showing your mug again?
14
00:00:44,140 --> 00:00:44,940
Erina-sama!
15
00:00:45,390 --> 00:00:47,340
Your exam hall is that way, Erina-sama!
16
00:00:47,340 --> 00:00:49,210
What? Let me go!
17
00:00:49,210 --> 00:00:49,900
How rude!
18
00:00:50,450 --> 00:00:52,090
This is necessary.
19
00:00:52,090 --> 00:00:55,610
You're taking the same exam
as the other students, Nakiri-chan.
20
00:00:56,950 --> 00:00:59,740
Tadokoro-chan, Aldini,
you're coming over here.
21
00:00:59,740 --> 00:01:02,410
I'll explain what your exam will be.
22
00:01:02,410 --> 00:01:05,120
W-Wait, Rindo-senpai!
23
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,080
Yukihira...
24
00:01:06,410 --> 00:01:07,290
Soma-kun...
25
00:01:10,210 --> 00:01:12,800
Come at me, Yukihira!
26
00:01:14,050 --> 00:01:16,760
It's time for the test that'll
decide whether you leave or stay!
27
00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:49,630
Food Wars
28
00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:49,630
The Third Plate
29
00:01:45,290 --> 00:01:49,630
Totsuki Train Arc
30
00:02:49,270 --> 00:02:53,190
Revenge Match
31
00:02:52,810 --> 00:02:55,690
Hayama, I haven't seen you around in a while.
32
00:02:55,690 --> 00:02:58,150
I had no idea this is where you'd ended up.
33
00:02:58,650 --> 00:03:02,130
I have a ton of questions for you, you know?
34
00:03:02,130 --> 00:03:04,370
What happened to the Shiomi
Research Group, anyway?!
35
00:03:04,370 --> 00:03:06,240
Yeah, it's gone.
36
00:03:09,370 --> 00:03:12,830
There is no need for autonomous
groups outside of Central.
37
00:03:13,210 --> 00:03:16,000
That's Director Azami's philosophy,
38
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,210
so what else is there to say?
39
00:03:17,530 --> 00:03:21,340
I thought you cared about
the Shiomi Research Group.
40
00:03:21,340 --> 00:03:25,540
I've got my own questions for you, Yukihira.
41
00:03:25,540 --> 00:03:27,810
What've you been up to?
42
00:03:28,140 --> 00:03:29,670
Protecting the dorm,
43
00:03:29,670 --> 00:03:31,440
resisting the Azami administration...
44
00:03:31,870 --> 00:03:34,150
Don't you think your
goals are rather shallow?
45
00:03:34,150 --> 00:03:36,070
Where's the guy who faced
me in the Autumn Elections,
46
00:03:36,490 --> 00:03:39,490
gunning for the top spot in Totsuki?
47
00:03:40,250 --> 00:03:41,950
While you've been bumbling around,
48
00:03:42,390 --> 00:03:44,410
I've already gotten one hand on the prize.
49
00:03:44,410 --> 00:03:46,890
But it seems like it's fallen on me
50
00:03:46,890 --> 00:03:50,120
to crush you before I can continue my ascent.
51
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,080
Yukihira, you wouldn't turn
my challenge down, would you?
52
00:03:54,390 --> 00:03:55,950
Don't underestimate me.
53
00:03:55,950 --> 00:03:59,340
I'm all for a revenge match against you!
54
00:03:59,660 --> 00:04:03,050
I'm totally game if you are!
55
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,450
But what about the topic,
and what're the rules gonna be?
56
00:04:06,450 --> 00:04:08,390
We'll need a judge, too.
57
00:04:08,390 --> 00:04:10,100
There's no need for concern.
58
00:04:10,100 --> 00:04:12,850
I have made the necessary arrangements.
59
00:04:14,060 --> 00:04:15,190
Dojima-senpai?!
60
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,900
It's been a while since the finals, Yukihira.
61
00:04:18,210 --> 00:04:19,050
Why are you here?
62
00:04:19,050 --> 00:04:21,780
This facility is under
Totsuki Resort's management,
63
00:04:21,780 --> 00:04:25,290
and I am the Head Chef of Totsuki Resort.
64
00:04:25,290 --> 00:04:28,120
I believe I am more than qualified
enough to preside over this match.
65
00:04:28,580 --> 00:04:30,620
I wasn't expecting you to be the one.
66
00:04:31,710 --> 00:04:34,650
Hayama-kun, that was a wonderful dish.
67
00:04:34,650 --> 00:04:36,540
Thank you, Chef Dojima.
68
00:04:36,540 --> 00:04:38,880
But too great a talent
69
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,630
will turn against itself in the end.
70
00:04:42,090 --> 00:04:46,550
I hope that you will be able to maintain
a good relationship with your talent.
71
00:04:47,070 --> 00:04:49,760
Let us go straight to going over the rules.
72
00:04:50,940 --> 00:04:53,790
The topic was chosen at
random from those assigned
73
00:04:53,790 --> 00:04:56,190
in advancement exams from previous years.
74
00:04:56,500 --> 00:04:58,900
It is bear meat!
75
00:04:58,900 --> 00:04:59,970
Bear?
76
00:05:02,060 --> 00:05:05,110
We'll be having you two face
off over who can serve a dish
77
00:05:05,110 --> 00:05:06,360
that best showcases bear meat!
78
00:05:07,130 --> 00:05:08,640
The match will be in three days!
79
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,780
You have until then to prepare.
80
00:05:10,780 --> 00:05:13,350
We have prepared bear meat
for your testing purposes.
81
00:05:13,350 --> 00:05:17,230
We will also have prepared expertly
butchered, drained, and aged bear meat
82
00:05:17,230 --> 00:05:20,500
for your use on the day of the match.
83
00:05:20,500 --> 00:05:24,250
All other ingredients must be sourced by you!
84
00:05:24,250 --> 00:05:24,970
That is all.
85
00:05:24,970 --> 00:05:27,050
So it begins, Yukihira.
86
00:05:27,050 --> 00:05:28,930
Good luck on your recipe testing.
87
00:05:29,310 --> 00:05:31,310
Don't give up, okay?
88
00:05:31,810 --> 00:05:33,060
Who do you think you're talking to?!
89
00:05:33,420 --> 00:05:35,810
I'm looking forward to three days from now.
90
00:05:35,810 --> 00:05:41,220
Shit, I had no idea Hayama'd
gone over to the Azami faction.
91
00:05:41,220 --> 00:05:46,000
Have you joined Central
as well, Dojima-senpai?
92
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,110
No, I am a neutral party.
93
00:05:49,110 --> 00:05:50,940
Oh, I see.
94
00:05:50,940 --> 00:05:51,890
That's good to hear.
95
00:05:51,890 --> 00:05:54,580
So, did the Shiomi Research Group
really get shut down?
96
00:05:55,110 --> 00:05:56,100
Yes.
97
00:05:56,100 --> 00:05:58,290
It no longer exists at the academy.
98
00:05:58,290 --> 00:06:00,170
Wow, seriously?!
99
00:06:00,170 --> 00:06:01,950
I'm trying to take in so much right now!
100
00:06:01,950 --> 00:06:03,100
Hayama, the ninth seat!
101
00:06:03,100 --> 00:06:06,700
What happened to Eizan-senpai,
who used to have that rank?
102
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:09,670
And is Nakiri still just the tenth seat?
103
00:06:09,670 --> 00:06:14,010
I'm not sure you have the luxury
of worrying about others right now.
104
00:06:14,010 --> 00:06:14,950
Huh?
105
00:06:15,850 --> 00:06:20,170
This match will be a difficult one for you.
106
00:06:20,460 --> 00:06:22,900
You'll understand once
you begin recipe testing
107
00:06:22,900 --> 00:06:26,150
what it means to square off with bear meat.
108
00:06:26,830 --> 00:06:29,390
Use the test kitchen however you'd like.
109
00:06:31,230 --> 00:06:32,410
Hm.
110
00:06:32,410 --> 00:06:34,240
So this is bear meat.
111
00:06:34,700 --> 00:06:37,090
It's nice to have them
prepare the meat for us.
112
00:06:37,090 --> 00:06:39,750
I've never cooked bear meat before.
113
00:06:39,750 --> 00:06:41,000
Which part of the bear is this?
114
00:06:41,540 --> 00:06:43,280
Come to think of it, Yoshino once said...
115
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:45,030
It depends on the animal and the season,
116
00:06:45,030 --> 00:06:47,920
but bear meat can be pretty smelly.
117
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,950
It requires more careful
handling than, say, deer or boar.
118
00:06:51,950 --> 00:06:53,220
Smelly, huh.
119
00:06:53,220 --> 00:06:55,470
I guess I'll have to try it out for myself.
120
00:06:56,170 --> 00:06:58,730
To start, I want to get a good
sense of how bear meat tastes.
121
00:06:59,100 --> 00:07:01,850
First off, let's keep it really
simple and just cook it with salt!
122
00:07:03,390 --> 00:07:04,310
Hm?
123
00:07:04,310 --> 00:07:06,690
It smells pleasant enough.
124
00:07:06,690 --> 00:07:08,730
There's some pungency,
125
00:07:08,730 --> 00:07:10,280
but it's totally fine!
126
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:11,660
Done!
127
00:07:11,660 --> 00:07:13,500
Here goes my first bite.
128
00:07:16,070 --> 00:07:19,500
Nice! So much sweet and rich fatty flavor!
129
00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:22,120
It does have a distinct
flavor, but it's not so ba—
130
00:07:23,260 --> 00:07:27,320
Hang on, a different flavor comes
through after you chew on it.
131
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,840
It's unbelievably gamey...
132
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,090
Roar!
133
00:07:31,090 --> 00:07:33,700
Yeah, this is a peculiar smell.
134
00:07:31,090 --> 00:07:34,430
Bear
135
00:07:33,700 --> 00:07:36,890
Or just plain smelly!
136
00:07:37,300 --> 00:07:40,520
Well, I only did a simple
preparation this time.
137
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,230
If I just throw spices at
it to temper the gaminess,
138
00:07:43,230 --> 00:07:44,520
I'm sure it'll be fine next time—
139
00:07:46,110 --> 00:07:49,230
You'll understand once
you begin recipe testing
140
00:07:49,810 --> 00:07:52,240
what it means to square off with bear meat.
141
00:07:52,710 --> 00:07:56,950
I'll have to counter the smelliness in
order to deal with this special meat!
142
00:07:56,950 --> 00:07:59,560
And spices are key—
143
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,370
That means I'm squarely
in Hayama's territory!
144
00:08:03,830 --> 00:08:05,260
Shit!
145
00:08:05,260 --> 00:08:07,250
Why do I always get topics
where spices are the key
146
00:08:07,250 --> 00:08:10,300
whenever I'm facing Hayama?
147
00:08:10,300 --> 00:08:14,260
Not that I mind trying to
beat him at his own game!
148
00:08:14,260 --> 00:08:17,580
In any event, I'm just gonna focus
on removing the smelliness
149
00:08:17,580 --> 00:08:19,930
as much as I can with the
ingredients I have here.
150
00:08:20,350 --> 00:08:21,810
What's this?
151
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,870
A top-of-the-line electronic nose
152
00:08:24,870 --> 00:08:29,000
and the best authorities on molecular
gastronomy in the nation.
153
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,650
Director Azami has stipulated
that we spare no effort
154
00:08:32,650 --> 00:08:35,140
in annihilating the rebels.
155
00:08:35,140 --> 00:08:37,410
You can use all available equipment
and human resources in testing—
156
00:08:37,410 --> 00:08:38,950
There's no need.
157
00:08:39,310 --> 00:08:42,200
I'll handle all the testing on my own.
158
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,330
You can all just go home.
159
00:08:45,830 --> 00:08:49,800
I've already put together the
bear dish I'll be serving.
160
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,290
I-Impossible.
161
00:08:51,290 --> 00:08:54,680
He already created the optimal
spice combination in mere minutes?
162
00:08:57,680 --> 00:09:01,140
Indeed, he has far surpassed the
chef he was during the Elections.
163
00:09:01,930 --> 00:09:06,770
Yukihira, you cannot win
against him as you are now.
164
00:09:11,330 --> 00:09:13,390
It's better than before,
165
00:09:13,390 --> 00:09:16,610
but there's still that lingering,
unpleasant smell.
166
00:09:16,610 --> 00:09:17,830
This is no good!
167
00:09:17,830 --> 00:09:20,090
I need to figure out how to
put this ingredient to use
168
00:09:20,090 --> 00:09:21,940
before I can even get to recipe testing.
169
00:09:21,940 --> 00:09:27,460
Okay, the first spices I want to try
are bay leaf, anise, and red chilis.
170
00:09:27,810 --> 00:09:28,500
Shit!
171
00:09:28,500 --> 00:09:30,060
I'm stuck dealing with the ingredient's smell
172
00:09:30,060 --> 00:09:32,420
instead of where I want
to take the actual dish.
173
00:09:32,420 --> 00:09:36,710
I'm not going to have enough time
to deal with bear meat at all!
174
00:09:36,710 --> 00:09:40,850
Hup! Hup! Hup!
175
00:09:41,230 --> 00:09:42,060
Yueguishu!
176
00:09:42,060 --> 00:09:43,270
Bajiao!
177
00:09:43,270 --> 00:09:44,470
Xiaohuixiang!
178
00:09:44,470 --> 00:09:45,680
Dingxiang!
179
00:09:45,680 --> 00:09:46,890
Guipi!
180
00:09:46,890 --> 00:09:48,100
Lajiao!
181
00:09:48,100 --> 00:09:49,860
Why are they so energetic?
182
00:09:49,860 --> 00:09:51,320
Hey, hey, hey!
183
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,530
Why're you looking so down?
184
00:09:53,530 --> 00:09:56,030
Aren't these what you needed?
185
00:09:56,030 --> 00:09:58,450
You're so helpless, Yukihira-chin.
186
00:09:58,450 --> 00:09:59,860
Kuga-senpai?!
187
00:10:00,410 --> 00:10:04,040
Hup! Hup! Hup!
188
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,280
Stop, stop, stop!
189
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,040
Um...
190
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,000
Why are you here in Hokkaido, Kuga-senpai?
191
00:10:11,670 --> 00:10:14,300
I'd heard that you guys were
going to have to face the
192
00:10:14,300 --> 00:10:17,170
Elite Ten in an unfamiliar land,
so you know...
193
00:10:17,170 --> 00:10:21,770
I was so worried that you might
be crying because you feel alone!
194
00:10:21,770 --> 00:10:25,180
So I rushed over just in case
I could be of some help to you!
195
00:10:25,530 --> 00:10:28,300
Um, why aren't you reacting?
196
00:10:28,300 --> 00:10:30,590
Well, 'cause I know that whenever
you're talking like that,
197
00:10:30,590 --> 00:10:32,560
you don't mean anything you're saying.
198
00:10:32,560 --> 00:10:36,570
Why would I come all the way to
Hokkaido just to run my mouth?
199
00:10:36,570 --> 00:10:40,070
I came here to help you, I swear!
200
00:10:40,070 --> 00:10:41,430
Oh, really?
201
00:10:41,430 --> 00:10:43,140
Well, that'd be awesome.
202
00:10:43,140 --> 00:10:45,010
I was really having trouble.
203
00:10:45,010 --> 00:10:47,580
Well, there is a condition.
204
00:10:47,580 --> 00:10:48,580
A condition?
205
00:10:48,580 --> 00:10:49,290
That's right.
206
00:10:49,290 --> 00:10:53,150
Challenge Hayama Akira to a Shokugeki.
207
00:10:53,150 --> 00:10:55,730
Get him to wager his ninth seat.
208
00:10:55,730 --> 00:10:56,250
Huh?
209
00:10:56,250 --> 00:10:58,510
Think about the opportunity here!
210
00:10:58,510 --> 00:11:00,970
Why not go all out and do a Shokugeki?
211
00:11:01,370 --> 00:11:06,370
But a Shokugeki requires equal stakes, right?
212
00:11:06,910 --> 00:11:10,260
I'm not sure I have anything that's
worth as much as a ninth seat.
213
00:11:09,350 --> 00:11:14,360
I'm having a lot of fun at Totsuki right now.
214
00:11:14,690 --> 00:11:18,030
Besides, this is for my sake, too.
215
00:11:18,570 --> 00:11:26,580
Elite Ten
216
00:11:18,900 --> 00:11:21,110
You'll beat Hayama, right?
217
00:11:21,110 --> 00:11:22,590
Then you'll join the Elite Ten.
218
00:11:22,590 --> 00:11:24,940
Then you'll do a Shokugeki against me.
219
00:11:24,940 --> 00:11:26,580
Then I'll crush you.
220
00:11:27,060 --> 00:11:30,270
Then I can safely rejoin the Elite Ten!
221
00:11:30,270 --> 00:11:31,330
And everybody's happy!
222
00:11:31,330 --> 00:11:33,580
I feel like he just said
something really annoying.
223
00:11:33,930 --> 00:11:37,390
Anyway, you're the one who'll serve
up a dish in the end, Yukihira-chin.
224
00:11:37,390 --> 00:11:39,970
Just beat Hayama-kun, okay?
225
00:11:39,970 --> 00:11:42,500
Well, let's put the whole
Shokugeki thing aside for now.
226
00:11:42,500 --> 00:11:45,550
I'll gladly make use of your spices!
227
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,730
Now I can get started on bear
recipe testing for real!
228
00:11:54,340 --> 00:11:55,970
No, no, no!
229
00:11:55,970 --> 00:11:59,370
The spice combinations aren't
coming together at all!
230
00:11:59,370 --> 00:12:01,820
Come on, Yukihira-chin!
231
00:12:01,820 --> 00:12:04,030
Okay, bear hot pot's next?
232
00:12:04,030 --> 00:12:04,780
Yup.
233
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:06,480
It's a dish that steeps aromatics
234
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,300
like green onions and chrysanthemum
greens with red chilis
235
00:12:08,300 --> 00:12:11,000
to mellow out the gaminess of bear meat.
236
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,410
Yukihira-chin, you should leave the lid off.
237
00:12:14,410 --> 00:12:16,240
If the bear meat's smell stays trapped,
238
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,550
the flavors might take a turn for the worse.
239
00:12:18,550 --> 00:12:19,460
Oh.
240
00:12:19,460 --> 00:12:22,220
Oh, nice work.
241
00:12:27,050 --> 00:12:28,460
Nice!
242
00:12:28,460 --> 00:12:30,530
The bear's gaminess is gone,
243
00:12:30,530 --> 00:12:34,270
and the heavy flavors of the meat and
stock have melded together in a good way!
244
00:12:34,270 --> 00:12:38,560
Using miso to cancel out the gaminess
is another hallmark of this dish.
245
00:12:38,560 --> 00:12:39,190
Right!
246
00:12:39,190 --> 00:12:41,060
So not only do you have to
think about what spices to use,
247
00:12:41,060 --> 00:12:44,700
but also which ingredients
to pair the meat with.
248
00:12:44,700 --> 00:12:49,580
One common technique is to marinate
meat with strong flavors in yogurt.
249
00:12:49,900 --> 00:12:51,030
So, what're you going to do?
250
00:12:51,030 --> 00:12:52,760
Are you going with the hot pot idea?
251
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:59,140
Well, Hayama will probably come up
with a dish that only he could make.
252
00:12:59,140 --> 00:13:04,510
If I don't do the same,
I'm not gonna stand a chance.
253
00:13:04,970 --> 00:13:08,470
It'd be so easy if it weren't
for the smelly meat...
254
00:13:08,470 --> 00:13:10,680
Hmm... speaking of smelly...
255
00:13:10,680 --> 00:13:13,180
Smelly, but addictive, right?
256
00:13:16,190 --> 00:13:17,750
I see.
257
00:13:17,750 --> 00:13:20,310
There are a lot of ingredients
out there that actually base
258
00:13:20,310 --> 00:13:21,940
their tastiness on smelliness.
259
00:13:21,940 --> 00:13:23,830
The regulars back at the diner
260
00:13:23,830 --> 00:13:27,410
liked the smellier stuff to
snack on with their sake, too.
261
00:13:27,410 --> 00:13:29,820
Basically, smelliness doesn't
have to be an enemy!
262
00:13:29,820 --> 00:13:33,010
Smelliness is an important factor
that can give rise to umami!
263
00:13:33,010 --> 00:13:35,170
The reason I can't take
advantage of bear meat
264
00:13:35,170 --> 00:13:38,010
is because I don't understand anything
about bear meat as an ingredient.
265
00:13:39,130 --> 00:13:41,330
I want to go into the mountains.
266
00:13:42,110 --> 00:13:44,690
I want to learn about where this
ingredient has lived its life.
267
00:13:44,690 --> 00:13:49,890
I want to see, walk, and breathe in everything
there is about it, using all my senses!
268
00:13:50,570 --> 00:13:52,470
That's a good goal.
269
00:13:52,470 --> 00:13:53,900
Okay, gather 'round!
270
00:13:54,310 --> 00:13:55,430
Yes, sir!
271
00:13:55,810 --> 00:13:58,900
Figure out the fastest way to get
us into the mountains, will you?
272
00:13:58,900 --> 00:14:00,270
Yes, sir!
273
00:14:00,270 --> 00:14:02,970
Okay! Get ready, Yukihira-chin!
274
00:14:02,970 --> 00:14:03,740
Okay!
275
00:14:03,740 --> 00:14:05,110
Thanks, Kuga-senpai!
276
00:14:05,970 --> 00:14:08,450
There has to be a fighting
chance out there somewhere.
277
00:14:08,450 --> 00:14:11,780
I'll find the key to bear cuisine first!
278
00:14:15,060 --> 00:14:17,960
One Week Ago
279
00:14:16,420 --> 00:14:17,960
Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!
280
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,260
Hey, Kuga.
281
00:14:20,260 --> 00:14:22,520
How dare you ignore all my calls?
282
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,400
Don't be such a sulky brat!
283
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:25,210
Ow!
284
00:14:25,210 --> 00:14:26,310
Hmph.
285
00:14:26,310 --> 00:14:28,430
I'm not one of the Elite Ten anymore.
286
00:14:29,300 --> 00:14:33,300
But it's fine. I figured out
a different way to have fun.
287
00:14:33,300 --> 00:14:36,930
I'm gonna completely mess up
the first-years' advancement exams, too!
288
00:14:37,930 --> 00:14:39,470
Do what you want.
289
00:14:39,470 --> 00:14:41,690
We both need to have fun!
290
00:14:42,220 --> 00:14:45,400
I wonder what Kuga's got planned.
291
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,170
Rindo-senpai, isn't time for you to tell us
292
00:14:49,170 --> 00:14:52,940
what we're supposed to cook
in our match against you?
293
00:14:53,940 --> 00:14:56,910
Relax, Aldini.
294
00:14:56,910 --> 00:14:58,940
You're scaring Tadokoro-chan.
295
00:14:58,940 --> 00:14:59,660
Right?
296
00:14:59,660 --> 00:15:00,220
Huh?
297
00:15:00,220 --> 00:15:01,330
Um, er, well...
298
00:15:01,330 --> 00:15:04,100
Don't get so worked up. I'll tell you.
299
00:15:04,100 --> 00:15:07,760
The topic for us is...
300
00:15:08,310 --> 00:15:12,130
Bears typically eat acorns and kiwi berries,
301
00:15:12,130 --> 00:15:14,130
but as you know, they are omnivores.
302
00:15:14,130 --> 00:15:15,220
They eat anything.
303
00:15:15,650 --> 00:15:18,720
They gain the most fat right now.
304
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,980
They're storing what energy
they can before they hibernate.
305
00:15:22,410 --> 00:15:25,600
I think you should make a dish
that really lets that fat shine.
306
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:26,320
Got it.
307
00:15:29,250 --> 00:15:30,340
Brr...
308
00:15:30,340 --> 00:15:32,660
Hmm. Yeah, today's not going to work out.
309
00:15:33,090 --> 00:15:35,170
It's deliberately putting tracks
down in a different direction
310
00:15:35,170 --> 00:15:36,580
from the animal trails.
311
00:15:36,580 --> 00:15:39,190
That means it knows it's being hunted.
312
00:15:39,190 --> 00:15:41,250
It's trying to throw us off its trail?
313
00:15:41,250 --> 00:15:42,350
That's right.
314
00:15:42,350 --> 00:15:44,850
Bears are smart and wily.
315
00:15:44,850 --> 00:15:46,940
We might be better off cutting
it short after a short break
316
00:15:46,940 --> 00:15:48,850
and going down the mountain.
317
00:15:48,850 --> 00:15:49,460
Got it.
318
00:15:49,770 --> 00:15:51,630
We're in the middle of nowhere.
319
00:15:51,630 --> 00:15:52,430
So cold.
320
00:15:52,470 --> 00:15:58,010
Kuga Terunori (Age 9)
321
00:15:53,050 --> 00:15:56,120
I've been going around eating authentic
gourmet food since elementary school.
322
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,010
This isn't cutting it.
323
00:15:58,010 --> 00:15:59,800
There's coffee.
324
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:01,690
I only want milk tea or chai!
325
00:16:01,690 --> 00:16:04,060
Senpai, I think you need more cold tolerance.
326
00:16:04,060 --> 00:16:06,230
I'm not half bad.
327
00:16:06,230 --> 00:16:09,650
Rindo-senpai would've
become sluggish, like a reptile.
328
00:16:10,090 --> 00:16:12,220
Um, Kuga-senpai.
329
00:16:12,220 --> 00:16:13,530
I have a question for you.
330
00:16:14,070 --> 00:16:17,030
How'd Hayama become one of the Elite Ten?
331
00:16:17,030 --> 00:16:21,580
Oh, there was a battle to fill the
vacant seats in the Elite Ten.
332
00:16:21,580 --> 00:16:26,000
Nakiri Azami hand-picked some
chefs from Central to compete.
333
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,960
Kusunoki Rentaro and other
second-years were among them, too.
334
00:16:32,380 --> 00:16:34,220
So this is what third-years are like...
335
00:16:34,220 --> 00:16:35,890
They're the true elite.
336
00:16:35,890 --> 00:16:40,100
There are only a few dozen
of them in the academy.
337
00:16:40,450 --> 00:16:43,310
Shit, I can't win.
338
00:16:43,310 --> 00:16:48,610
Will you face me now, Senpai?
339
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:52,530
Wow.
340
00:16:54,730 --> 00:16:59,270
That's how Hayama, a first-year,
341
00:16:59,270 --> 00:17:02,750
conquered the fierce battle even
second-years were said to have difficulty in.
342
00:17:02,750 --> 00:17:03,830
What character are you?
343
00:17:03,830 --> 00:17:07,300
Yukihira-chin, it'd be wise of you to think
Hayama's a completely different beast
344
00:17:07,300 --> 00:17:10,170
from what he was in the Autumn Elections.
345
00:17:10,170 --> 00:17:12,650
His ability to leverage
his innate sense of smell
346
00:17:12,650 --> 00:17:14,840
has been honed into an even sharper weapon.
347
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:20,810
And now, he has the infernal powers of
Nakiri Azami and Central at his disposal.
348
00:17:20,810 --> 00:17:23,000
Are you trying to tell me
that I don't stand a chance?
349
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:24,210
No, no, no!
350
00:17:24,210 --> 00:17:26,890
I don't want to see you all demotivated!
351
00:17:26,890 --> 00:17:28,060
Huh? Who's demotivated here?!
352
00:17:28,060 --> 00:17:32,360
The Hayama of today can easily
convert the peculiar fragrance
353
00:17:32,360 --> 00:17:35,530
of bear meat into something exquisite.
354
00:17:35,530 --> 00:17:38,580
You need to fully grasp
the ingredients' potential
355
00:17:38,580 --> 00:17:40,740
and find a new angle.
356
00:17:43,210 --> 00:17:45,460
An angle on bears...
357
00:17:47,980 --> 00:17:48,790
Ow!
358
00:17:48,790 --> 00:17:50,420
Hey, hey, hey!
359
00:17:50,420 --> 00:17:52,970
Don't be such a klutz now, Yukihira-chin.
360
00:17:54,860 --> 00:17:58,930
Kuga-senpai, maybe this
is part of the answer!
361
00:18:01,070 --> 00:18:02,500
This tree...
362
00:18:03,260 --> 00:18:06,480
I wish I could've shown
you how to butcher a bear.
363
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,190
Oh, I'm happy enough I got to learn from you.
364
00:18:10,190 --> 00:18:12,230
Well, I'm sure Totsuki
365
00:18:12,230 --> 00:18:16,420
would've gotten a top-notch hunter
to prepare its bear meat.
366
00:18:16,420 --> 00:18:19,410
There shouldn't be any bad
odors resulting from that.
367
00:18:19,980 --> 00:18:22,780
That does mean that if you can't take
advantage of the smell that remains,
368
00:18:23,210 --> 00:18:25,810
it's because you're a bad chef.
369
00:18:26,810 --> 00:18:30,910
Well, you came all the way here
just to learn about bears.
370
00:18:30,910 --> 00:18:32,520
Maybe you'll do fine.
371
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:33,540
Thanks!
372
00:18:35,630 --> 00:18:36,880
All right!
373
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,090
Here's to a new start in recipe testing!
374
00:18:39,090 --> 00:18:40,430
Sorry to keep you waiting!
375
00:18:40,430 --> 00:18:42,690
I got what you asked for!
376
00:18:42,690 --> 00:18:46,780
The berries you found—dried.
377
00:18:46,780 --> 00:18:47,790
Thanks!
378
00:18:47,790 --> 00:18:49,590
Let's get started right away...
379
00:18:49,590 --> 00:18:51,440
with these schisandra berries.
380
00:18:53,590 --> 00:18:56,990
Schisandra is used in medicinal cuisine.
381
00:19:01,610 --> 00:19:03,100
All done!
382
00:19:03,100 --> 00:19:07,030
Here's a bear burger made from a
combination of fatty bear meat and beef!
383
00:19:07,030 --> 00:19:08,650
It has massive impact!
384
00:19:08,650 --> 00:19:10,580
Just the smell alone makes you riled up!
385
00:19:10,580 --> 00:19:12,460
Minced bear meat—a bold move!
386
00:19:12,460 --> 00:19:14,340
Did he succeed in removing the smelliness?
387
00:19:15,550 --> 00:19:17,010
Well, here I go.
388
00:19:22,210 --> 00:19:24,270
The rich fat is so mild and sweet!
389
00:19:24,270 --> 00:19:27,250
The red meat is so fragrant!
What a double punch!
390
00:19:27,250 --> 00:19:29,990
It's a neverending torrent of juices!
391
00:19:29,990 --> 00:19:31,930
A manly flavor peculiar to bears!
392
00:19:31,930 --> 00:19:33,750
But it is not unpleasant in the least!
393
00:19:33,750 --> 00:19:35,410
Instead, it's as though the flavors
394
00:19:35,410 --> 00:19:37,410
are bursting forth and
calling to our instincts...
395
00:19:37,410 --> 00:19:40,030
This must be from the schisandra!
396
00:19:40,030 --> 00:19:42,020
Schisandra, or the five-flavor fruit,
397
00:19:42,020 --> 00:19:45,280
is known as a medicinal
herb possessing five flavors.
398
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:50,660
Sourness Bitterness Sweetness Spiciness Saltiness
399
00:19:45,790 --> 00:19:50,660
Each flavor is thought to have a
beneficial effect on different organs.
400
00:19:51,170 --> 00:19:55,350
These five flavors envelop the
gaminess of the bear in a well-rounded way
401
00:19:55,350 --> 00:19:59,630
and transform it into high-impact
umami in a stroke of genius!
402
00:20:00,100 --> 00:20:02,980
I use the schisandra after
it's been steeped in sake.
403
00:20:02,980 --> 00:20:04,740
The alcohol brings out the essential oils
404
00:20:04,740 --> 00:20:06,760
and heightens the schisandra's
function as a spice.
405
00:20:07,070 --> 00:20:10,890
Yukihira-chin, you know
a lot about schisandra.
406
00:20:10,890 --> 00:20:14,600
Oh, someone I know is really
knowledgeable about medicinal cuisine.
407
00:20:15,170 --> 00:20:16,610
Several Days Ago
408
00:20:16,290 --> 00:20:19,730
Now, back to the Hokkaido Seminar
after you all drink this.
409
00:20:20,170 --> 00:20:21,820
Thank you, Arato-san.
410
00:20:21,820 --> 00:20:23,700
I'm so tired!
411
00:20:26,990 --> 00:20:28,050
What's this?
412
00:20:28,050 --> 00:20:30,060
It has a really interesting taste.
413
00:20:30,060 --> 00:20:31,190
It's schisandra tea.
414
00:20:31,190 --> 00:20:34,080
It energizes and revitalizes you.
415
00:20:34,470 --> 00:20:35,420
Huh.
416
00:20:35,420 --> 00:20:39,530
The schisandra plant is widespread
in China and the Korean peninsula.
417
00:20:39,530 --> 00:20:44,250
It's a vine that can also be found in
Japan in Hokkaido and central Honshu—
418
00:20:41,580 --> 00:20:44,260
This is supposed to be break time,
but we're back in class.
419
00:20:44,260 --> 00:20:45,460
This and that.
420
00:20:45,460 --> 00:20:46,330
Also this.
421
00:20:45,770 --> 00:20:46,920
Yes, that's right.
422
00:20:46,330 --> 00:20:48,160
Schisandra this.
423
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:47,760
Yes, indeed.
424
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:49,390
Let us rest our brains a little bit!
425
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:49,390
Schisandra that.
426
00:20:49,900 --> 00:20:51,510
I see.
427
00:20:51,510 --> 00:20:55,850
The bear's smelliness has
now been dealt with, Yukihira-chin.
428
00:20:56,450 --> 00:20:57,450
Yup!
429
00:20:57,450 --> 00:21:00,410
Now, I have to figure out how to draw
out the good flavors of bear meat.
430
00:21:00,410 --> 00:21:03,530
If I can keep going, I bet
I can win against Hayama.
431
00:21:03,530 --> 00:21:04,620
Chief!
432
00:21:04,620 --> 00:21:05,530
Hayama Akira's here!
433
00:21:09,070 --> 00:21:10,550
Hey, Yukihira.
434
00:21:10,550 --> 00:21:12,160
How's the recipe testing going?
435
00:21:12,620 --> 00:21:14,470
What an elegant and deep fragrance.
436
00:21:14,470 --> 00:21:17,000
Amid the pungent spiciness,
there's a sweet-sour note.
437
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,670
There's even a complex interweaving
of astringency throughout.
438
00:21:20,670 --> 00:21:24,620
Just by smelling it, you can feel
a rising heat from deep within.
439
00:21:24,620 --> 00:21:25,260
This is...
440
00:21:25,260 --> 00:21:26,630
...Cajun spice!
441
00:21:26,980 --> 00:21:27,850
Kay-what?
442
00:21:27,850 --> 00:21:30,250
A spice mix used in Cajun cuisine,
443
00:21:30,250 --> 00:21:33,390
which is based in the southern
United States, around New Orleans!
444
00:21:33,710 --> 00:21:36,540
But in his hands, the mix
is utterly transformed!
445
00:21:36,540 --> 00:21:38,770
What a deep, strong fragrance it has!
446
00:21:40,140 --> 00:21:43,320
You're testing out
schisandra berries, aren't you?
447
00:21:44,230 --> 00:21:45,950
He figured it out just
from the residual smell?
448
00:21:45,950 --> 00:21:48,820
Sorry I figured out your strategy.
449
00:21:49,130 --> 00:21:53,790
Well, you did barge into
my kitchen, so it's tit for tat.
450
00:21:53,790 --> 00:21:57,530
And how was Yukihira's test recipe?
451
00:21:57,530 --> 00:22:00,270
Did it make better use of the
bear's smelliness than mine?
452
00:22:02,350 --> 00:22:03,880
I guess it was hardly necessary to ask.
453
00:22:04,570 --> 00:22:07,840
Improvised knowledge and ideas
won't lead you to victory against me.
454
00:22:08,300 --> 00:22:09,390
You've already lost to me twice.
455
00:22:09,390 --> 00:22:10,010
Hayama Akira
456
00:22:10,010 --> 00:22:11,850
You know this, Yukihira.
457
00:22:11,850 --> 00:22:14,370
You will lose a third time, too—
458
00:22:14,370 --> 00:22:16,600
An even worse defeat than before.
459
00:23:55,610 --> 00:23:57,200
So warm!
460
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,960
I'm really looking forward
to the advancement exam.
461
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,920
Totsuki
462
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:10,920
Food Wars
463
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:10,920
The Third Plate
464
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:10,920
Next Episode The Umami Tightrope
465
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:10,920
This battle's going to get rather
shaky, so please hold on tight!
