Takumi Aldini

Utama

Male · Umur 15-25 · Gol. darah A

Height: 168 cm Takumi is the oldest nephew of the owner of the Trattoria Aldini, a trattoria (family-style restaurant) located in Florence, Italy. He is half-Japanese but, unlike his brother Isami, appears more European – with blond hair and blue eyes – and is noted as being extremely handsome, having fan clubs in Toutsuki Academy and his hometown. He enrolled in Tōtsuki at the behest of his uncle, taking with him his mezzaluna (two-handed knife) and a bottle of homemade olive oil as a good luck charm. His specialty is Italian cuisine, although many professional chefs noted that he has a broad vision; like Souma, he will incorporate ingredients and methods from other culinary styles to create inventive dishes, and can modify his recipes while cooking. He is very kind and supportive of his less-skilled brother, to the point of risking his pride to defend Isami's honor. Takumi has a fierce (and somewhat one-sided) rivalry with Sōma. Takumi sees Sōma as someone similar to himself – both having grown-up working at small family restaurants – and a worthy rival, and jumps at any chance to compete with him. He frequently tries to challenge Sōma to informal cooking challenges (usually leading to an embarrassing situation for himself), hoping to one day defeat Sōma in a formal Shokugeki. Despite their rivalry, both he and Sōma greatly respect each other, and likely view each other as friends outside of the arena. Takumi and his brother Isami are the main characters of the Shokugeki no Soma – Fratelli Aldini spinoff manga which focuses on their time in Italy before going to Tōtsuki Academy.

Isami is originally shown to be overweight, with his eyes and mouth drawn in a simple fashion, although he briefly became much thinner during the Autumn Election preliminaries. Like Isami, he enrolled in Tōtsuki to hone his skills at the behest of their uncle. Although an equally talented chef, Isami is shown to be less sophisticated than his brother. He was scolded for trying to (and failing to) revise a dish that Takumi had made during their time in the trattoria, and constantly sought to be praised for his cooking like Takumi. Though Isami is supportive of his brother, he does aim to eventually surpass him as a cook. Nonetheless, the brothers are very close. Isami and Takumi are featured in the Shokugeki no Soma – Fratelli Aldini spinoff manga which focuses on their time in Italy before enrolling at Tōtsuki Academy.
