The most anticipated event in the BLUE arc officially begins in “Shokugeki no Soma” chapter 305 — the battle of Soma and Asahi. At this point, there are several possibilities on how their duel can be made more interesting.
Soma and Asahi steps into the semi-finals of Bishoku Leading Under-35 Entrance. The rules of their match are expected to be announced in “Shokugeki no Soma” chapter 305. Fans have a number of interesting speculations.
For one, Soma and Asahi might be instructed to cook with an assistant that the competition judges will assign to them. If that happens, it will certainly make the fight more interesting. It was shown before that having an assistant who can work in sync with the main competitor can really dictate who wins in a cooking match. If “Shokugeki no Soma” chapter 305 reveals that Soma and Asahi will have to work alongside someone they did not choose, it will put this competition to a whole new level.
Fans may recall that Asahi has already defeated Soma before, which is why he referred to their upcoming battles as a rematch in chapter 304. Soma has developed his skills so much since then. However, it is also important to note that Asahi unveiled more powerful abilities in the recent chapters. It would not be surprising if his crossed knives skills will be used in “Shokugeki no Soma” chapter 305 or in the upcoming installments.
Fans are obviously betting on Soma winning this match, but it is still too early to predict that. However, considering that Soma is the franchise’s main protagonist it does not seem to make sense not seeing him in the BLUE grand finals. So an epic plot twist will most likely be revealed in “Shokugeki no Soma” chapter 305 to build up Soma’s anticipated win.
If Asahi does not reach the end of BLUE, fans may be wondering what is left of the arc. It is possible that defeating him may not be the main objecting in this arc. It might have something to do with establishing that the God’s Tongue ability of Erina and Mana is not a curse but a great culinary gift. “Shokugeki no Soma” chapter 305 will be released on Sunday, March 31.
