Shokugeki no Souma: Gou no Sara

With Azami's regime gone, Totsuki has regained its freedom and Soma Yukihira now holds the first seat of the Elite Ten. His new position offers little time to settle in, however, when Totsuki receives an invitation to BLUE, a world-class competition for young chefs whose unusual trials push cooking far beyond the academy's familiar rules.

Waiting among the challengers is Asahi Saiba, leader of the underground chefs known as Noir and a man who has already defeated both Soma and his father. As the tournament grows harsher, Soma, Erina, and their friends must face opponents who treat culinary tradition as something to break, forcing them to prove what their own cooking stands for when talent alone is no longer enough.
