Shokegeki no Soma - 1
I've heard really good things about this show on GAF, so I figured I would give it a try. I know it has a lot of fan service, which usually is a big turn off for me, but I was curious - same reason I watched Prison School's first episode, really.
Well, episode 1 was a hell of a lot of fun. Soma is cool, it was funny and the food all looked so good. As for the fan service well... the fact that its mostly reactions to the food sort of made it... ok? It made it... funny. I'm not sold on it. I generally try to avoid fan service and anything involving tentacles, but at least here I can laugh at it (Where as a show like Dog Days it just makes me shake my head and roll my eyes).
The last point is that its also a "high school" show which also really bugs me. I'm so utterly tired of that trope. The first episode only touched on it at the end but thats really what the show is about, it seems. Well, hopefully it can be like Kill la Kill in that regard and just be totally absurd.
Anyways, gonna keep going on this one. Wonder just what I've gotten myself into...
