That's highly possible but how could Senzaemon not foresee this.
I could see Soma saying that. He has a huge honor by having the recently now former director to beg him to save her. That's huge. I do see Soma saying that he has business with Erina with him trying to change her mind on his cooking, though Senzaemon knows that. Though I got to say, why him is right. It is not random but out of all people, why Soma? Why not already established elite? Why? Hm...
I don't know but if I had to guess maybe he let that go bc of his daughter or Azami is a very good actor like we've seen in his political speech
.
Yeah exactly it would be perfectly in character and go along well with the story's course .
Probably bc Soma (as we've seen) has the ability to change people with his unorthodox cooking , its like Ishiki Senapi said his cooking is not bound to any cooking tradition or techniques he doesn't strive for perfection but for unlimited ways of cooking and he doesn't give up after so many failures but always learning from them (the ultimate sore loser like Fumio said). I guess in that regard Soma and his cooking are special and Senzaemon has watched him and Erina closely and the effect he has on her like no one else before ,not even the people that have tried to help her (including Joui ) had that effect on her so perhaps that's why
. Not to mention the old man seems to be an closet Soma x Erina shipper
.
YEEEEEEES, that Anime add in ship tease was good.

Spread the love

Soma and Megumi also had a moment in the end though Soma had that WTF look when she prized him that was funny
. And Nikumi going full Tsundere
