Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma Season 2 Gets New PV


The next battle won’t be fought with blades or guns, but pots and pans. The shokugeki will decide whose cuisine reigns supreme!

Yesterday, the official Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma anime website started streaming a new promotional video for the show’s second season. The 105-second teaser offers a recap of the first season’s climactic final moments, set to a dramatic orchestral score.

The trailer was first shown at last weekend’s Jump Festa 2016 event.

Earlier this month, Weekly Shonen Jump revealed that Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma would receive a second season. Cast and crew information is unknown as of press time, though the major voice cast is expected to return.

The Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma adapts Yūto Tsukuda and Shun Saeki’s manga of the same name. The series kicked off in April 2015, and ran for 24 episodes. Yoshitomo Yonetani (Nurse Witch Komugi, Tiger & Bunny The Movie -The Rising-) directed the series at J.C. Staff, while Tomoyuki Shitaya (Bakuman, Kiss×sis) provided character designs. Scripts were provided by Shinichi Inotsume and Shogo Yasukawa.

A visual for the series was released earlier this month, which you can check out below.
