p4
Souma: First place!!
Souma: We did it, alriiiiiiight!!
Isami: You're out of the red now too!
Guy: They defeated...Kuga Chinese Restaurant...!
Guy: To think they devoured almost half of the Chinese R.S.' sales
Guy: And even got hold of the customers they're opponent had given up on!
Terunori(thinks): Yukihira-chin...!
Terunori(thinks): So this was your aim from the beginning!
Cutlery: They finally defeated Kuga's sales on the fourth day!!

p5
Terunori(thinks): You set your aim on the fourth day, a Saturday, when the number of customers increased drastically
Terunori(thinks): And kept observing the visitors.
Terunori(thinks): And...
Terunori: If there's any kind of cooking
Terunori: You're better at than me, then I'll accept your shokugeki.
Souma: Are you serious, Kuga-senpai?
Terunori(thinks): Dammmit......
Terunori(thinks): I was so close...!!
Rindou: Kuga.
Rindou: Kuga!

p6
Terunori: Ugeh!
Terunori: ...Rindou-senpai...!
Rindou: You really lost in sales? Kugaaaaa!
Box: High School Division Third Year Tootsuki Elite Ten Second Seat Kobayashi Rindou
Souma: !
Megumi: The second seat...!
Rindou: Kuga, boy you really are hopeless! Aren't you Kuga!?
Terunori: Oh shut up!
Terunori: I don't want to hear that from someone who's not participating in the Moon Banquet Festival just to go around eating!
Rindou: What are you saying? Going around eating is a way of participating.
Rindou: *munch munch*
Rindou: And you know, it's because you stayed in your booth aaaaaall the time...

p7
Rindou: That you lost to your kouhai's stall, am I wrong?
Terunori: Oh shut up, shut up, SHUT-UP!!
Souma: That Kuga Terunori is getting cornered with just a few words.
Megumi(thinks): They're a bit like brothers...
Terunori: He got me...With this
Terunori: All went according to Yukihira-chin's plan.
Souma: Eh? What are you talking about?
Souma: The Moon Banquet Festival is five days long, right?
Terunori: .........Huh?
Souma: I can't really say I won unless I beat you with the total of the five days.

p8
Souma: The challenge is still ongoing!
Box: And the next day...A Sunday,
Box: The last day of the Moon Banquet Festival!!
Souma: ............
Rindou: You sure are working hard, Yukihira Souma.
Rindou: But at this rate,
Rindou: Winning in the sales total looks a bit impossible.

p9
Rindou: You got really close though.
Souma: My plan was something like this, you know...
Box: Day 1
Text: Keep a decent distance thanks to the Hujiao Bing
Box: Day 2
Text: Bring out a new menu and close the gap.
Box: Day 3
Text: Have the same sales somehow
Box: Day 4
Text: Do something to overwhelm him
Box: Day 5
Text: Somehow win in total sales
Rindou: Your prospects are, like, really optimistic, you know?
Souma: .........I thought I'd definitely get a chance of winning
Souma: I mean, I never thought I'd lose in terms of business.
Souma: So I'm really
Souma: Frustrated!
Rindou: ...You're a quite honest guy.

p10
Box: Main Street Area
Boy: Waaah! It's so pretty!
Girl: That thing on top of the curry...
Girl: Is it really chocolate!?
Man: Wh...What's going on with this dish!?
Man: How could they mass produce such complicated 3D candies!?
Man: And it even has a colorful pattern drawn on it...!
Man: This is impossible with the existing cooking techniques!!

p11
Alice: This chocolates
Alice: Were made using a "Food 3D Printer".
Voice: With 3D printer you mean...!!
Voice: Those you hear about a lot lately!?
Voice: Can you even print food!?
Alice: Chocolates are perfect to give a subtle seasoning to curry.
Alice: If you take 80% Cacao Chocolate, mix it with spice, print it with a 3D printer...And use it as topping for the curry
Alice: It will gradually melt, color the curry's flavor and change it into something really fresh!
Boy: Papa, buy me one of those!! I want to eat it!!
Dad?: Papa really wants to eat that too, you know!?
Voice: The curry itself has a nice smell which makes me feel like I'll melt!
Voice: And it even has a beautiful topping...
Voice: Oh dear...Tootsuki's students really are amazing!
Akira(thinks): .........They love it.

p12
Alice: That chocolate won't unbalance the curry when they mix
Alice: And it can make it more vivid and give it a better fragrance.
Alice: We end with positive income too.
Alice: I'm glad the customers are liking it (music note)
Akira: ......Yeah,
Akira: I'm gladly surprised.
Box: Uptown Area.
Erina: Have the customers arrived?
Hisako: Yes! ...By the way, Erina-sama,
Hisako: I see...You are keeping one table free again today,
Hisako: And it's such a nice place......

p13
Erina: ......Yes,
Erina: Well...It's just in case we need it...Ok?
Hisako: ......?
Erina: ............
Hisako: Hmm...? All the customers who made reservations have arrived...
Hisako: I'll go check what happened!
Erina(thinks): It can't be---

p14
Rindou: On the Autumn Leaf Viewing a while ago...
Rindou: I almost burst out laughing.
Rindou: To think there was a guy who said exactly the same thing as you, Kuga.
Terunori: .........Tch.
Terunori: You don't need to remember things from last year.
Terunori: Umm,
Terunori: Let's just spare ourselves from tiresome things like "forming deeper bonds".

p15
Terunori: Any of you senpai care to have a shokugeki with me?
Nene: Kuga.
Satoshi: Oh dear...
Etsuya: What the hell are you talking about...?
Etsuya: The Elite Ten members wouldn't accept that easily...
Eishi: ......It's ok.
Eishi: Can we do it later today?
Eishi: That if you're fine with me...Though.

p16
Terunori: Tsukassan,
Terunori: On last year's festival...
Terunori: You were first place in sales for the five days in the Central Area, right?
Terunori: So, promise me.
Terunori: If I can do the same on next month's Moon Banquet Festival
Terunori: Have another Shokugeki with me---

p17
Rindou: Hehehe,
Rindou: I guess this is what you call "A battle with no winners".
Rindou: You both look really bitter about it.
Terunori: ......Shuddup.
Terunori: Well......Yukihira-chin,
Terunori: Might just grow even more from now on.
Rindou: Ahaha, Kuga, you're pretty honest too.
Terunori: Just who is...!?

p18
Rindou: I quite like him too, that Yukihira Souma boy.
Rindou: Hey, Yukihira Souma!
Rindou: I reserved a table tonight.
Rindou: I'll take you there once you close your stall! You'll come right?
Souma: "Table"...?
Rindou: For Tsukasa Eishi's Booth.
Rindou: Aren't you interested...On the dishes the current first seat makes?
Rindou: Let's go to the Uptown Area together.
