As a story, Food Wars walks a well-trodden path, focusing first and foremost on Soma's ambition to reach the highest echelons of Tōtsuki Academy and surpass his father in terms of culinary skill. Despite the school setting, characters are rarely shown learning or training, instead preferring to throw its leads from one sink-or-swim challenge to another, trusting the audience to assume that they already have the necessary skills with maybe a flashback or post hoc explanation as to how the characters developed them. This isn't an invalid method of storytelling per se, but it's easy to see how some people could be turned off from the show because of it. Characters that play antagonistic roles will generally show some combination of smugness, elitism and outright corruption, to the point
where one starts to wonder if Tōtsuki is
even that good of a school. For example, in an early episode, the character Erina Nakiri oversees the school's entrance exam and refuses to admit that she enjoys Soma's cooking, causing him to fail. In another, an instructor attempts to expel Megumi for altering a recipe, despite having only done so to compensate for the deliberately poor produce that she had been forced to use.
