Fierce Battle! The Food Fight Festival! (
Summary[]
With the preliminary round complete, the first round of the food fight festival begins. The host announces that the food of choice is bubble tea. Rentarou turns to the group to ask who wants to take part in the first round, but mid-sentence, gags because he ate to much in the preliminary. Kurumi reaffirms that she’ll be participating in every round and Shizuka volunteers to take part in round one, giving Rentarou’s family their team. When the round begins, everyone begins to quickly down the bubble tea given to them. After ten minutes however, everyone but Takeko begins to slow down because their jaws have started to hurt from chewing the tapioca. Kurumi and the Gorira alliance leader can still hear chewing and turn to see Shizuka still chewing away at the tapioca in the bubble tea. Rentarou’s girlfriends question how she’s able to continue, prompting Rentarou to explain that Shizuka can keep on chewing because she has a tiny mouth, and is therefore used to chewing more than others. Thanks to Shizuka’s performance, Rentarou’s family ends the round in second place, with Takeko getting first and the Gorira alliance getting third. The teams get three points for coming first, two points for second and one point for third, with the points in the final round being doubled.
Round two comprises of ten pieces of sushi, with the winner being the team whose person eats all ten pieces the quickest. Kurumi and Nano partake in this round because they are both confident in their speed, but when the round begins, Kurumi gets distracted savouring the flavour of the sushi. Takeko takes a quick lead, but Nano manages to keep up with her by swallowing the sushi whole without chewing it (something that you should never try yourself, it’s very dangerous). Both of them grab the last piece simultaneously but Nano stops before putting it in her mouth, allowing Takeko to take first place. Karane questions why she stopped, causing Nano to comment that she ate too much and feels like she is going to throw up. The Gorira Alliance begin to catch up with Nano, so she creates a plan to allow her to eat the last piece of sushi. She sprints up the stairs to the hosts platform and stands on the railing, balancing over the edge. When a living thing’s life is in danger, certain instincts manifest to allow it to preserve its own life, with one of them being “appetite”. Standing up high triggers Nano’s instincts, as she’s afraid of heights, allowing her to eat the final piece of sushi and take second place. Rentarou has to carry her down though, as she’s frozen in fear.
Round three consists of an insanely spicy mapo tofu. Karane boasts about her confidence in spicy food and Kusuri says she’ll happily eat it, so along with Kurumi they partake in the third round. The contestants begin eating the moment the round starts but soon find the spiciness to be beyond their imagination, leaving their mouths in agony. Takeko forfeits the round, calling the tofu an insult to food. The Gorira alliance show their courage and continue to eat, since they regularly exploded fireworks in their mouths as training. Kusuri is the only person unphased by the spiciness as her drugs have trained her for pain in her mouth. Karane questions why she’s not powering through the pain herself, but she soon starts eating again after Hahari and Hakari begin making fun of her because of her earlier boasting. Having now suffered damage to her pride deeper than her sense of taste, Karane overcomes her sense of pain, giving Rentarou’s family first place.
In round four, the contestants will be eating cake. Hahari and Hakari step up into the ring alongside Kurumi for this round. When the round begins, Takeko takes an overwhelming lead and the Gorira alliance quickly devour the cake, whilst Rentarou’s family eat at a quick pace. Hakari attempts to use a psychological attack on the girls present by saying that she’s worried she’ll put on weight. This attack backfires though, as it ends up not only affecting everyone else but herself and her mother as well. Karane however reignites their spirits after she says that fat can make their breasts grow, giving them second place.
Rentarou congratulates all of his girlfriends for a good performance. Kurumi internally thinks about how she underestimated them when the Gorira Alliance leader approaches them and asks how they all ate so much. They all say that their strength comes from the power of love, a statement that makes Kurumi cringe. The host asks all of those participating in the final round to make their way to the stage, which prompts Kurumi to ask Rentarou how long he’s going to pet his girlfriends for. He says though that he has to keep petting them all or they’re all going to puke.
