<Tr> <Td_colspan="4"> In preparation for the final, Soma goes with Megumi to the fish market, where they come across Ryo and Alice . There, they learn about the varying factors about picking the best pacific saury, which Ryo appears to be an expert on . Hearing that Akira also has a talent for picking out the best fish, Soma is left concerned about how to compete with both him and Ryo . After thinking over the time aspect of the fish, Soma ultimately decides on ageing his saury, asking for help from Ryoko, Ibusaki, and Ikumi due to their experience with ageing methods . Trying out each of the three methods; using malt rice, smoking, and high humidity, Soma manages to think of a way to surpass the others after a run - in with Fumio . The day of the final arrives, with Soma bringing out what appears to be a completely unrecognizable piece of saury . </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 33 </Th> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> "The Sword That Announces Fall" / "A Sword that Signals Autumn" "Aki o Tsugeru Katana" (秋 を 告げる 刀) </Td> <Td> August 27, 2016 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="4"> Under a moonlit sky, the finals get underway, with Alice recalling the many cooking battles she's had with Ryo .

Finally, Soma presents his dish; Salted Rice Bran Pacific Saury Rice, which he learned from seeing Fumio's pickles . Just as it seems his dish has failed to impress the judges, Soma brings out his dish's true edge . </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 34 </Th> <Td> 10 </Td> <Td> "A New Jewel" / "A New Genius" "Aratanaru "Gyoku" " (新た なる 玉) </Td> <Td> September 3, 2016 </Td> </Tr>
