What is Food Wars! The Second Plate?
Food Wars! The Second Plate picks up after the first season's brutal elimination round, following protagonist Yukihira Souma as he advances through the Totsuki Culinary Academy's grueling Autumn Elections. This thirteen-episode season aired during summer 2016 and represents the continuation of the school's high-stakes cooking competition where only the most talented students survive. The series blends comedy and ecchi elements as Souma faces increasingly difficult culinary challenges, including a bento boxing match against the Academy director's chemistry-obsessed granddaughter.
The competition intensifies as six other notable contenders—Megumi, Ryou, Akira, Hisako, Takumi, and dark-horse Subaru—all vie for advancement. Each matchup tests not only cooking skill but creativity and strategic thinking under pressure. The season maintains the franchise's signature style of over-the-top reactions to food and intense culinary battles that determine which students have genuinely earned their place at the academy.
If you completed the first season and want to continue following Souma's journey at Totsuki, this second installment delivers the same high-energy cooking showdowns and character development that defined the series' beginning.
At the Totsuki Culinary Academy, the first rule is survival of the fittest, and if you don't have what it takes to become a master chef, you need to get out of the kitchen before you get burned. With the wheat of first-year students separated from the chaff, cocky former diner cook Yukihira Souma is one of the handful of kitchen whizzes still standing. As the next round of the Autumn Elections gets underway, can he survive a brutal bento boxing match with the chemistry-obsessed granddaughter of the Academy's director? And which of the other contenders; Megumi, Ryou, Akira, Hisako, Takumi or sinister dark-horse Subaru; will advance to fight for the gold medal? (Source: Sentai Filmworks)
