It was awsome the anime and manga and if I had chose which is better I would of course chose the anime because it nails a lot of the characters more right it was not in soma father personality to abandon the restaurant and dinner like that. Especially it going to be wgo recommends guide it going where his profile people want a good meal with generous portion that is not high class. The restaurant or yukihira restaurant is going to the big time and his son will need help with that so is is not in jorochiro personality to abandon his son like that so I think the anime hit the nail on the head with seeing the restaurant or dinner crowded soma will need all the help he can get including his father and I do not think he like to do a lot of fine dining anyway explore yes but fine dining. People like the wgo and stuff . Which is why the wgo will develop a recommendeds guide.
