p2
Hinako: F…Fwooooh…!
Hinako: How can he create such a splendid smell…!?
Hinako: It's spicy yet mellow…Faintly sweet yet fragrant!
Yuuki: The spices creating it are coriander, fennel, oregano…
Yuuki: Ermm, and…
Yuuki: Uuuh! It's so complicated I can't get it.
Ryouko: Anyway, Hayama-kun sure is calm……
Ryouko: He's coolly and indifferently doing his job.
Ryouko: I wonder if he doesn't feel nervous being on a big stage…
Sonoka: He's the kind of person that can constantly bring out all of his ability.
Fuyumi: True.
Fuyumi: It was the same during the training camp…His has almost no inconsistency dependent on situations.
Fuyumi: I guess he has an unyielding confidence.

p3
Ooizumi: Confidence and…Much more than that,
Ooizumi: I even feel personality.
Ooizumi: The personality of a king……
Ooizumi: As proof of that he's currently
Ooizumi: Ruling over this space.
Ooizumi: Perhaps he already sees
Ooizumi: Himself fighting on the finals.
Voice: This really is Hayama's thing!
Voice: There's no way this supreme aroma is going to lose…

p4
Man: What…? Where did the momentum of the bandana boy go?
Man: Did he shrink from hearing the cheers for his opponent?
Alice: He's not even listening at those cheers.
Alice: Right now, all of Ryou-kun's sensory organs
Alice: Are concentrated on the ingredients' browning, the sound and smell of fat sizzling…The weight of the eel's body.
Alice: They can only perceive the information that comes from that frying pan.

p5
Ryou(thinks): Set all your senses on full throttle.
Ryou(thinks): Don't let go the best moment of the heating.
Ryou(thinks): Come
Ryou(thinks): Come
Ryou(thinks): Come
Ryou(thinks): Come
Ryou(thinks): It's here.

p6
Ryou(thinks): The frying is done!!
Voice: The fattened thick eel is well-cooked...!
Voice: And he's boiling that with red wine and bouquet garni!?
Erina: ......As I thought, Kurokiba-kun
Erina: Is making a "Matelote"!
Big Text: Eel Matelote
Text: A dish in which you boil eel with red wine or brandy.
Text: "Matelote" refers to the cooking technique of boiling fish with wine.

p7
Erina: There's nothing to criticize on his choice of main dish.
Souma: ...Hmm? Wait, he just opened up the eel,
Souma: But he's put it back as it was.
Erina: He fried the eel after wrapping it up to it's original shape using crépine.
Erina: The fat adds to the body and increases the impact...This dish is very appropriate for him.
Asterisk: Crépine: What Hishoko-chan used for the first round. //that's the actual note, this is a reference to ch75
Erina(thinks): Not-soggy mashed potatoes and homemade brioche!
Erina(thinks): He's continuing to use the cards he has.
Erina(thinks): I see...His dishes' destructive power
Erina(thinks): Was constructed this way.
Erina(thinks): He overwhelms his opponent by using his abundant cards to his heart's content.
Erina(thinks): Just as if he was playing a card game---!!
Ooizumi: He's not losing in terms of power!
Ooizumi: We can't tell who will win.

p8
Ooizumi(thinks): Will you be able to upset the difference made in the preliminaries!? Kurokiba Ryou!!
Ryou: No matter how good of an atmosphere you create with your aroma performance
Ryou: I don't care about that.
Ryou: I'll just eat it away.

p9
Thought: !!
Thought: That expression!?
Thought: It's as if he was a totally different person
Thought: From the always-composed Hayama...!
Thought: Was he dragged into Kurokiba Ryou's pace!?

p10
Gin: ......No,
Gin: He's finally showing the claws he didn't have the need to show so far.
Gin: That's what that smile means...!
Souma: .........
Voice: He's pouring one spice after another...
Voice: He's still taking more out! It's unstoppable!!
Taki: N-No matter how much cards he has on hand
Taki: It's meaningless if he can't use them proper-
Taki: Ly......

p11
SFX: *smirk*
Voice: The first one to finish is...
Voice: Hayamaaaaaa!!

p12
Akira: This is "Duck in Apicius Style".
Text: A dish said to be loved by the 17th century Roman gourmet Apicius. //BIG NOTE: Ok, this is going to be more like a rant, the only romaji reading I found for "アピシウス" is "Apicius", but the info I found on Apicius doesn't match what's mentioned here, Apicius is supposed to be a man from the 1st century who wrote what become the base for one of the most ancient cookbooks in history, I did a pretty deep search on this topic and couldn't find anything that mentioned anyone named Apicius linked to cooking on the 17th century, the only thing I could find that supports this text would be this blog http://ameblo.jp/tembooo/entry-11407791138.html which says the exact same thing, as of now, I don't know if Morisaki Yuki just got the info from the restaurant on that blog and whether that's even true, but I digress, I'll just leave it as Apicius and see if anyone can help out with this
Text: Its feature is that it's finished by caramelizing the duck meat's skin-side.
Sonoka: Look...The caramelized honey is glossy...!
Sonoka?: The spices smeared on one side of the duck meat are fragrant!
Sonoka: Even though I feel like I'm melting just from the smell...If I put this in my mouth
Sonoka: What will happen!?

p13
Gin: Well then...
Gin: It's time to taste it!
SFX: *munch*

p14
Hinako/Fuyumi: !!!
Hinako/Fuyumi: mmmmmmmmmmmmm
Voice: Whaaaat!!? The former Elite Ten...!
Voice: Are all fainting in agony!!
Fuyumi: It's piercing through my whole body...!
Fuyumi: A gorgeous spicy fragrance!!

p15
Sonoka: Moreover, even after chewing and swallowing it...
Sonoka: The aroma continues spreading through the nose and mouth aaaaaall the time...!
Sonoka: This happiness won’t...
Sonoka: Release me!!
Gin(thinks): Even the spices on a single mouthful can have innumerable traits.
Gin(thinks): Stingingly spicy ones, faintly sweet ones,
Gin(thinks): Refreshing ones, bitter ones...
SFX: *munch*
Gin(thinks): This dish, which manipulates the power balance between spices at will...
Gin(thinks): Couldn't have been made without his sense of smell!
Taki: What an incredible combo of aromas...Just how many cards does he have...!?
Taki(thinks): This is bad...I'm being taken away!
Taki(thinks): By the aromas' magic---

p16
Text: Eagle grip!!!

p17
Ryou: ......!
Akira: It's an all-out attack.

p18
Akira: Aromas are what will dominate cooking from now on.
Akira: No matter how many cards you gather...Your cards
Akira: Will never get to where I am.
Thought: A genius-like sense of smell...That simple strength
Thought: Can make such a fearsome dish...!!

p19
Thought: Is there any dish which can win against this!?
Souma: Kurokiba's eyes,
Erina: ---?
Souma: They aren't
Souma: Dead yet.
Cutlery: The beast isn't dead---!!
