食戟のソーマ [Shokugeki no Soma] #2

The second volume of Shokugeki no Soma hits the ground running, with the cover showcasing a fired-up, blue-haired young chef squaring off in what promises to be an intense culinary showdown — his fierce grin radiating the kind of competitive energy that defines this series. Joining him is a blonde figure in chef's whites, and a massive, gleaming fish dominates the foreground, hinting at the high-stakes cooking challenge teased in the surrounding Japanese text about hotel breakfast menus and a 200-dish challenge within two hours. Published by Shueisha, this volume — with credits to 附田祐斗, 佐伯俊, and 森崎友紀 — delivers the manga's signature mix of culinary ambition and shonen rivalry in one energetic package.
