With the release of the latest manga of "Food Wars! Soma" Chapter 203, the results of a new popularity poll initiated by the official were also officially released. As members of the Nakiri family, Erina, Secretary Ko, and Alice took the top three spots on the list.
The total number of votes cast this time was 25,919, of which the top three, Erina (3,350 votes), Secretary (3,081 votes) and Alice (3,042 votes), accounted for nearly half of the votes, which makes people have to admire the strength of the Nakiri family. Following closely behind was the male protagonist Yukihira Soma (2,795 votes). Unlike the last time he was in the first place, this time Yakuo was squeezed out of the top three. Could it be related to his recent performance?
After the fifth place of Tadokoro Megumi (1862 votes) and the sixth place of Shinomiya Kojiro (1669 votes), another notable result of this vote was officially announced - that is, the second place of the top ten, Senior Kobayashi Rindan, was honored to be on the list, ranking seventh with 1353 votes. In the comics, Senior Rindan has a cute and naughty personality, coupled with her excellent figure, this attractive feature has attracted many readers.
Takumi Aldini (1,207 votes), who was teased by readers as the "real heroine", ranked after Rindou-senpai, and also lost the glory of being the third in the last vote. I wonder if this Italian teenager can make a big comeback in the next vote after being arranged to participate in the United Shokugeki Contest?
The ninth and tenth places were taken by "Meat Charm" Mito Izumi (743 votes) and Hayama Ryo (737 votes) respectively. As one of Soma's harem, Meat Charm's hot body, tsundere personality and excellent cooking skills are all her charms, while Hayama Ryo was an enemy of Soma because he once defected to the Nakiri Tsuki camp. After being defeated, he changed his ways and accepted the expulsion punishment. In a sense, he is also a tragic character...
