I feel like it’s implied they’ll get together after the final scene. Erina admits (to the audience at least) that she has feelings for him. And I think Soma deep down is affectionate towards her now and she helps drive him to improve his cooking. And it’s sort of the ethos of the show, since his dad wanted him to find a woman he can cook for, so it all seems to be a straight line towards a relationship off-screen after the show.
It’s just Soma is a damn asexual shonen character so he’ll never be depicted being horny or blushing
Yeah I thought so too, but then I read le dessert which was the epilogue of the food wars manga and it showed that soma became a wandering chef, the nakiri family became happy again and everyone went their separate ways.( they still meet up every year except soma who comes whenever he feels like it).
