Here's hoping that Erina will enjoy her swimwear while there's still time left, as summer is on its way out.

Looks nice and all, but Selvaria Bles figure is still the best.

It's always summer in anime, bro. Always a way to squeeze in a beach/pool episode.

Honestly, who cares about yet another boring bikini figure when this magnificent one is coming?

Just by Erina alone, I think I might check this series out. However, while I know her and Megumi are the female protagonists, from a shipping standpoint, is there more evidence of the lead guy with her or Megumi?

sirdano1 Dammit! You stole my thunder. Sad
Seriously though. I was on the fence about this swimsuit figure until they unveiled this one over the weekend. Nope, no need for any other Food Wars figure in my life. Laughing

Can't say I'm surprised by this. Wonder if they'll make a male figure as well.

as far as i've read (6 volumes), Megumi. even though Erina is kinda touted as the "main" heroine, she doesn't appear very often.

She is something of a foil to Soma, with an upper-class background and high social status at the institute instead of Soma's working-class background and him being at the bottom of the ladder. Erina absolutely hates Soma's guts, so what screentime they do have together is not friendly.

Megumi, however, is Soma's best friend, and they do spend a lot of time together.

Shipping can go any way though. They're totally unpredictable and random as far as what ships will be the most popular. I don't know what the most popular ships in Food Wars! is though.

They have, this is the only one so far. What figures have been done so far.

He'll be lucky to get another (Probably by MegaHouse) as in anime figure world, the females get all the love, the guys get almost nothing (Ex: Kirito from SAO still has no scale figure to speak of, at best figmas, RAH, and prizes).

Oh my god, full size figure of Dojima in swimming trunks. DO IT.

On a serious note, it's really a shame they don't do more male figures.
