They skipped it. They bloody friggin skipped it and more unless they show it in the next ep or 2 but the impact may be weaker than if they had shown it when everything was set up for it to happen |
I know, I ran to my bookshelf and flipped through the books to make sure it wasn't my imagination. But yep, they skipped it :/

For those saying people are overracting about EP9 skipping a certain scene are just wrong.
Skipping that scene ends up creating a domino effect in which people will either be forced to act in ways that don't make sense or therefore act diferently and have great moments soiled.
By skipping this scene if Erina doesn't regain her confidence by learning about Soma she shouldn't want to leave the dorm, if she doesn't leave the dorm she won't go to see the fights at the arena and will miss Alice speech, weakening their reconciliation.
It just doesn't make any sense to skip that scene now, its not like in the past where they skipped the Preschool thing in the Shokugeki against Alice and did it as a brief flashback, That scene was mostly inconsequential, this scene is critical for about four characters actions and reactions after it.

@Snakebit1995: They can still course correct by doing the scene immediately following this shokugeki, it does mess up the part you have spoilered but that can be hand-waved without too much trouble, but you're correct that any later and it will severely affect the plot moving forward.
I just really want to see how they do Souma answering the door to EVILFACE;
it was such a great moment in the manga since you go from Souma innocently saying "I'll get the door!," turn the page, then BOOM!

And thats why I said that they can still pull it off in an ep or 2 but any later than that is gonna be hard cos theyre gonna practically shoehorn it somewhere. Worst case scenario is flashback

Ep 10
Return of the foodgasms although Im surprised they faithfully adapted it and they ended it in 1 ep without rushing it. Erina's rocking back and forth scene coupled with the music was adorable and soothing even though it only lasted 3 secs. Next ep is where things really start to get fun. The title gives it away

Her name is Momo.
Also yeah, this was definitely an animation-conservative episode.

Well, at least Isshiki didn't drop in on her naked as usual.
I had a hard time imagining bacon-wrapped salmon being melt-in-your-mouth tender. The salmon, yes, but bacon, in my amateur cooking experience, only becomes more chewy as you cook it, until the fat is rendered out and it turns crispy. Even cooking it in water first at lower heat doesn't save it from being chewy - in fact it makes it more chewy (which is touted as a plus and why that method is recommended). It's essentially connective tissue, fat and some bits of muscle. It just doesn't lend itself to the sort of buttery tenderness shown in the anime.
And yeah, Momo's foodgasm was in poor taste.

Still though Japan, despite their strict laws about this kind of stuff as we saw with Watsuki a few weeks ago, still allowed it to air and the manga this scene was in to be printed for almost 2 years now in the US too. So I guess this is technically still legal albeit in the gray area especially when you consider a show like To-Love-Ru showing WAAAY more explicit content to a girl or 2 who fits Momo's physical description and has been doing so for several years now and it just ended this year.

Genuine question, why the foodgasm was 'uncomfortable'?
It looked fine to me given the standards set, bit more explicit that some but there was nothing wrong with it. Is it because third year Momo was one of the girls? She may be a loli (is that even the right term for her age?) but she's older than most characters in the series.

I can see where youre coming from and while it doesnt bother some like you, me and others, there are definitely a fair amount people who take offense to it. Hell they even go as far as to call out and bash on fans who were amused by that scene via disqus and they wont even accept that Momo is technically older than more than half the main cast as an excuse. I know this because I decided to check out a few pirate sites out of curiosity on how people would react since the majority of viewers converge in pirate sites and even into a debate/argument with one of them.

The moment I saw the return of the foodgasms, I KNEW the episode would get a lower score because of it. It might not have been the only reason, but clearly it was influential. Oh well, this is that kind of era after all. At first they went for Marvel Comics, now it's only natural to try to do the same with anime & manga.
