All hail the (gluttonous) queen ギャル曽根
“The Gal” has been crowned the new queen of Japanese competitive eating.
Here are the results of the final rounds of the “Gluttonous Queen of Japan” contest televised on TV Tokyo yesterday obtained from Everyday of the R sea bass gluttony Part 1 (Google Translation) Part 2 (Google Translation) and Much & Fast (Google Translation)
Round 6->5 Sausage 30 minutes
1 35 “The Gal” (曽根奈津子)
2 25 Iwata (岩田ミユキ)
3 24 “The Nurse” (嘉数千恵)
3 24 Tomoko Mikaye (三宅智子)
5 16 Saito (斉藤千恵)
6 15 Ro (若園真由香) eliminated
“The Gal’s” total of 35 sausages matches what Sonya Thomas did in the Sheboygan Bratwurst contest, but Sonya had only 1/3 of the time.
Round 5->4 Rice 30 minutes
1 27 cups “The Gal” (曽根奈津子)
2 26 Iwata (岩田ミユキ)
3 20 Tomoko Mikaye (三宅智子)
3 20 “The Nurse” (嘉数千恵)
5 13 Saito (斉藤千恵)
At the 20 minute mark, Iwata was ahead of “The Gal” by 2 cups, but “The Gal” comes from behind to win this round.
Round 4->3 Shrimp 45 minutes
1 116 shrimp “The Gal” (曽根奈津子)
2 104 “The Nurse” (嘉数千恵)
2t 104 Iwata (岩田ミユキ)
4 90 Tomoko Mikaye (三宅智子)
Iwata and Tomoko Mikaye were neck and neck for the third place spot with Iwata finally avoiding elimination. The Nurse’s strong performance is a considerable surprise of this tournament and marks her as another Japanese female competive eater to pay attention to.
Final Round Chinese noodles 1 hour
Surprisingly there is not a 3->2 round; the winner of the three-woman contest is the overall champion. The results of this round are:
1 22 cups “The Gal” (曽根奈津子)
2 18 Iwata (岩田ミユキ)
3 15 “The Nurse” (嘉数千恵)
“The Gal” wins this round easily and basically coasts from the 45 minute mark, when she had 20 bowls. She spends some of the final 15 minutes fixing her makeup, which Iwata apparently views as taunting. During the post contest handshake, Iwata attacks “The Gal” according to this blog entry (Google translation)
The popularity of “The Gal” has held spur a resurgence in Japanese competitive eating according to this blog entry (Google translation) but it probably has a considerable distance to go to reach the level of popularity it had around the turn of the century. Another “Gluttonous Monarch of Japan” contest open to both genders will apparently be held this fall.
