French Publisher: Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma Anime Slated for Spring
posté à par Rachel Mahoney
French publisher TONKAM posted on its official Facebook page on Tuesday that the anime of Yūto Tsukuda and Shun Saeki's comedy manga Shokugeki no Sōma (Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Sōma) is slated for next spring. TONKAM publishes the French-language edition of the original manga.
The manga centers on Sōma, who works with his dad at his family's restaurant. His dad is a culinary master, and he often hosts cooking battles with his father. His father then enrolls him in an elite culinary school that is very difficult to enter, and the graduation rate is only about 10 percent.
Saeki and Tsukuda launched the manga in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in November 2012, and Shueisha published the 10th compiled volume on November 4. Yuki Mirosaki, a cosplay chef and model, also contributes to the manga, and each volume of the manga features recipes.
North American publisher Viz Media announced plans to release the manga in November 2013, and published the second compiled manga volume in North America on October 7. The company initially decided not to add the manga to its digital Weekly Shonen Jump anthology because the series is "a little racy," but later added the manga to the anthology's lineup.
