Food Wars! - The Third Plate Episode 4 "Pride Of Young Lions" Discussion!!!


Recommended Posts

So, I have finally sat down to watch Ranma, and I came across an episode that felt a lot like a Food Wars episode.  And it's a filler episode, mind you!  There is a battle between Ukyo and her Okonomiyaki shop and this new guy who shows up with a food truck selling crepes.  There's even a foodgasm scene!

So not only is this show vapid, mediocre, and overrated, its gimmick isn't even original! 

Hell, I am sure there are other shows that had similar cooking episodes, or cooking centric shows, that aren't as extreme.  Food Wars is NOTHING special.

Why the hell is Food Wars the second premiere of the night?  Did have Demarco have a stroke?

What's really gonna be annoying is if AOT gets replaced by something stupid and not a dub premiere.

It's utterly bizarre that this show from 2017 will come in-between two dub premieres from 2021 starting on April 10th!

why are all of Blondies man Slaves bald...is it just his fetish or is it some racist stereotype the Japanese have about Chinese people I don't know about?

Originally they were drawn all the same and looked like monsters.  Now they are actually drawn differently and in detail and still look like freaks.  I don't know if they're meant to be Chinese though.

the fact that this dub still kind of dumbs down asian ingredients for the benefit of the whites feels......dated

Well, it would be American fans in general, not just whites.  What is being dumbed down?

Blondie's whole schtick is pretending he's chinese even tho he's Japanese so I'd be willing to bet it's.....a stereotype of some kind....and that that's the whole point meant to make him look like more of an asshole
