In this episode, titled "The Secret of the First Bite," we see Soma and the other elite ten members participating in the "Grand Bout" tournament, which is a competition between the top chefs at the school. The competition is fierce, and tensions run high as the contestants battle it out in one-on-one matches.

The first match is between Soma and Mimasaka Subaru, the quiet and mysterious chef who has made a name for himself by memorizing the recipes of his opponents and beating them at their own game. As usual, Soma is confident, but he soon realizes that Mimasaka's ability to predict his every move is a real challenge.

Despite this setback, Soma refuses to give up. He remembers a lesson that Chef Shinomiya taught him about the "first bite": that a dish's true potential is revealed in the first bite a person takes. With this in mind, Soma tries to create a dish that will surprise and impress Mimasaka from the very first bite.

The rest of the episode is a tense and exciting battle between two skilled chefs, each trying to outdo the other with their culinary prowess. Soma's dish is creative and delicious, but Mimasaka's ability to copy his every move makes it seem like the match is already over.

In the end, though, Soma manages to pull out a victory thanks to his understanding of the "first bite." He creates a dish that not only tastes great, but also surprises and delights Mimasaka right from the beginning. This small insight helps Soma secure a spot in the next round of the tournament, but the victory is bittersweet as he realizes that every remaining opponent will be just as difficult to beat.

Overall, "The Secret of the First Bite" is a great episode that highlights Soma's creativity and determination. It also introduces a new challenge in the form of Mimasaka, who quickly becomes one of the most interesting and mysterious characters in the series. Food Wars fans won't want to miss this exciting episode.
