BollyMeter7.8/10Season 2 covers the Autumn Election arc and is praised for introducing the series' strongest rivals. Shorter than Season 1 but maintains the quality of the first run.

What BollyAI Thinks

The Second Plate (Summer 2016, 13 episodes) adapts the Autumn Election arc, which introduces several of the manga's most beloved characters and cooking archetypes. The competition format suits the series perfectly and the rivalry dynamics deepen in ways that pay off across later seasons. Slightly shorter than the debut season but largely maintains its energy and culinary specificity.

The Room

Season Over Season

A tighter episode count keeps the Second Plate focused on competition rather than the academy world-building of Season 1, but the introduced rivals add genuine depth to Soma's journey.
