Episode 7 : Rematch! Battle at Lunch Time

Tatsuya's hungry, and both Ryoko and Azumi want to deliver their home-cooked meals to him. Unable to decide who should be allowed to share their bento with Tatsuya, a K-Fight is called.

Unlike previous K-Fights, however, this time K stands for... Kitchen! From running commentary, to classical background music, this K-Fight is Iron Chef, Real Bout-style.

When time draws to a close, and the judges are about to sample the food, Shizuma breaks in, steals the food, and chows down. After scarfing down both meals, Shizuma comes down with a strange illness. Could it be related to someone's bad cooking?

With a quick rule-change, Ryoko and Azumi get more bento prepared, and dash off seeking Tatsuya. After dashing around campus, inadvertantly switching lunches, and then trading them back to one another, Ryoko and Azumi finally locate Tatsuya, who promptly eats both.

Whose cuisine will reign supreme?
