#CHUUKA ICHIBAN ANIME SERIES#

I will focus on two things about this series that I feel are most prominent and want to talk about, the characters, structure and the story arcs and their internal structure.Д«ut first I will quickly breeze through all the points that don't really matter: My feelings for this anime are quite complicated so I just had to write a review for this series. Its too bad since if they had just made it a bit longer, the ending would definitely be a happy ever after The only thing that lessens the enjoyment a bit is the ending - I was thinking there must be another chapter to this but its the end, apparently this is the case wherein the audience is left to imagine that Mao's group defeated their enemies, him accepting top chef position and finding all the legendary utensils. The Dark Society of the cooking chefs and the quest for the legendary utensils added that suspense factor, making it not just an ordinary cooking competition. The parts I definitely like is the Super Chef competition. The phasing of the series is great as well - with each event getting more and more interesting as one watches. What's interesting is that the show offers lots and lots of trivias about food - I never realized till I watched it that there are lots of food that can actually improves our health! The characters are very well done, all of them are likeable and its more effective since it uses the bad-guy-turned-good-guy style, making us like the other characters that we thought annoying at first. Man, I can't help but crave dimsums, fried rice, & other chinese food while watching this. Ever watch the Ironchef Master show in Japan? This is the anime version. One can't help but cheer for Mao as he goes through Like his mom, Mao believes cooking should be used to bring happiness to people, and this is the theme the story revolves in. The plot is very interesting, centering around a 13 year old boy who has a magical touch when it comes to cooking. I've seen bits of this anime in our local channel, back then it was already pretty interesting but I haven't been able to catch it always on tv. During his journey, he meets great friends and fierce rivals who wish to challenge him in the field of cooking.ДЇirst chinese dubbed anime that I just finished watching, so the story's still fresh in my mind. However, before he takes his mother's place as Master Chef, he continues to travel China in order to learn more of the many ways of cooking, in the hopes of becoming a legendary chef, just like his mother. The beginning of the story takes place in Szechuan, Mao's birthplace.ДЄfter the death of Mao's mother, Pai, who was called the 'Fairy of Cuisine', Mao becomes a Super Chef in order to take the title as Master Chef of his mother's restaurant. The country of China has four major regions: Beijing, Szechuan, Shanghai, and Guangdong. Chefs compete with each other in order to gain respect and even power, but also with the risks of losing everything. It is a country where insulting a high-grade chef or fooling around with cooking could land a person in a jail, and impersonating a top-chef is as good as usurpation of authority. It was an era in which top chefs with different cooking styles tried their best to improve their skills and to become the best chef in China. It is also during a fictitious era called 'The Era of the Cooking Wars'. The story takes place in 19th century China during the Qing Dynasty, where the Emperor was weakened and the country was close to chaos.
