He wants everything and everything all of the time.

soma yukihira is unironically the strongest protagonist i've seen in anime and he looks like this half the time.

but i mean it though. i've only made it to half of season 3 so far but his mentality throughout the show is really strong and is genuinely great role model. he never takes his anger out on people; he puts all of it into his performance and uses that against his opponents. not only does this improve his skills but also he continues to have respect for each of his opponents despite them putting him through hell almost every episode. no matter how much his peers shit talk him he doesn't ever stop reaching for his goals. he just uses their shit talk as a way to get there faster.

on top of that he also takes losses really well which i feel like is something that should be taught more in media as a whole? he's an example of the fact that it's okay to lose, and that it's not even really a loss so long as you learn something from it and use it as a means to reflect on yourself. it's a really simple message on the surface but it's really important and something that a lot of people tend to forget since i could count about 20 people who would benefit from understanding a lesson like that.

also it makes cooking cool.

do you know how hard it is to make cooking look cool.

i was planning on living off microwavable food for the rest of my life and i totally would've done it if i didn't start watching food wars.
