Iron Chef - Battle Abalone (2) (1 of 5)

[wchan39]

7:54 "Today's theme cost me $5000!"

I wonder if that's what Futurama was making a reference to when Zoidberg ruined Chairman Koji's sword and he screams "That sword cost me $5000!"

Love Kaga's clothes in this battle, looks like a member of Malice Mizer, lol!

[olygrrr]

Gosh, you think the challenger's hat is tall enough?

[Honjudd]

7:34 "...when it comes to seafood..."

Sakai *aw not again* T_T

[demonhand]

Wow, the last disciple! This show is so epic!

[HeartBreak1x]

Abalone is very expensive

[AFunnyWhisper]

It's so funny how they added a crunchy sound effect for the bell pepper! That doesn't even sound like biting a one! It's corny, but funny.

[GenericUsername5648]

jeez, does anyone know where to get iron chefs original music! it's amazing!

[MenloMarseilles]

Most of it can be found on the soundtrack for the movie "Backdraft". For instance, track 9 (Show Me Your Firetruck) is the music that plays when Kaga enters the stadium and samples a bell pepper.

I want to judge this battle! I only get to eat abalone once a year!

[Nocturnalux]

I'd love to see the chairman cook something. I don't even care what, the grand gestures and fabylous attitude would make it worth it. I can imagine him tossing some food into the air repeatedly while Chen goes "...what are you doing...?"

[itstristanyo]

Sakai always has that "What the hell -_-" look whenever the main ingredient is unveiled.

[fuandon]

Did anyone else see Ishinabe in the opening?

[bgorton319]

Sakai is the King of Iron Chefs!!

[TimFrith24]

Long live the King!

[kos5966]

lol as if it cost him

its the show lol

[bludika]

"COST ME $5000" lol..

[oopopp]

I liked that back story...more than usual for some reason.

Sometimes when they pick Sakai, I just wanna tap them on the shoulder and ask, "Do you know what your getting yourself into!?!?"

Watch a ton of episodes and I always see Sakai lose so little.

[hazizo]

in the other abalone it was 10,000

[Krishna21]

Is it 5000 USD or 5000 Canadian dollras?

[feslenraster]

it must be in USD, if it wasn't why mention how much it was? would be far less impressive if it were not USD or euro lol

[donnk]

@feslenraster

he actually said 500,000 yen, which is 5 851.5 US dollars, according to google.

[feslenraster]

@donnk ah thanks for the correction, my bad :)!

[Xantar]

$5,000!?! Those had better be some good abalone!

[ftbotsb]

I can hear Sakai san thinking "Why can't they give me something normal to cook?"

Thanks Archo for posting these.
