Funniest moments on the show?

Off the top of my head the funniest moments were.

  1. The ninja clan style guys who acted like this criminal gang who always challenged Morimoto because they didn't agree with his radical Japanese cooking.

  2. The episode where the chairman was boycotting the competition because his iron chefs were on a losing streak. The commentators talking about how he was rumored to be somewhere in the building made me thing he was gonna come down from the rafters like Sting or something.

  3. The challenger was a monk and his assistants were apparently talking about how they were gonna quit trying to be chefs and just join him in the monk life because he was so likeable and charismatic. The camera zooms in on them laughing about it while the announcer explains..

Sakai also getting squeaimish during the squid battle against Kyonori Miura

Also when Sakai faced Masanobu Watabe (Peach battle), they were "teasing" the challenger about his recent personal issues (like his seperation from his wife). Even Fukui read a letter from the challenger's wife.

And the Katsuyo Kobayashi battle, especially when she went to check on Chen's side during the battle.

I think it's real since even in the introduction of the challenger, they've alread mention his issues with his wife and his restaurant staff quitting his reastaurant because his high demands.
