Kuga is pretty fun in this chapter.
Despite his rough manners and speech, he is a typical rich boy through and through. Travelling around the world isn't for those with poor wallet.
Then again, China and Japan is only about three hour airflight. A round trip flight should cost somewhere around 500 U.S. dollars. Not to mention that China is pretty cheap in living expense. Beijing, the more expensive of its city, shouldn't take more than 4o dollars a day.
Still, judging from the tone of the conversation, I think we were suppose to assume that Kuga is from an affluent family. And his food trip in China probably have all those gourmet ingredients that would make your wallet cry.
As for his plan, its simple enough in theory.
Soma beats Hayama in a shokugeki wagering his seat, …show more content…
... Man. Soma and Kuga really are the same. This over-optimistic plan sounds a lot like the plan Soma made against Kuga in the moon festival. I'm already seeing the pitfall.
For one, Hayama is introduced as an "interim" ninth seat, we don't know if Hayama was given the seat or it is temporary - pending on Hayama completing some nebulous goal. Two, Hayama would need to agree to the shokugeki. Though, Soma and Hayama's agreement might just be the easiest part of the plan. Hayama and Soma has a rivalry. Its easy to imagine Soma provoking him into a shokugeki than Kuga would. And of course, Soma would be okay wagering the seat against Kuga. Finally, even if this miraculously work out, I expect that the other E10 and Azami would just kick Kuga back out of the E10.
Though, playing devil's advocate for the other
