Soma steadily wins his way up and will be facing Asahi in the next battle! Erina’s concern for her mother makes her think that it would be best for everyone if Asahi won the competition. The reason for her doubt is because of a secret that everyone who possesses the God’s Tongue has. In the meantime, Joichiro returns to Japan and reveals to Dojima how he met Soma’s mother and how he became involved with Asahi.
Guess it's our first time running 
into each other in Japan, Asahi.
أعتقد أنّ هذا هو لقاؤنا الأوّل 
.في اليابان يا أساهي
Ich glaube, wir sehen uns
zum ersten Mal hier in Japan, Asahi.
Es la primera vez
que nos vemos en Japón, Asahi.
Es la primera vez
que nos vemos en Japón, Asahi.
C’est la première fois
qu’on se voit au Japon, Asahi.
È la prima volta
che ci incontriamo in Giappone,
Впервые мы встречаемся в Японии, Асахи.
