What Happened in The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master Chapter 85? (Recap)
- The Blessing’s Curse: One of the most disturbing aspects of Geomma’s very limited power was brought to the fore in the chapter. He briefly lost his mind in a sparring session, where he realized that his powerful “Sword God” blessing may have come back to haunt him if he were to test it too hard.
- Academy Chaos: As usual, Geomma played a supporting role but ended up doing things that got her even more unwanted attention from the high school seniors and female leads.
- A New Threat: Clues were scattered throughout about the general story line. The “celestial beings” or higher powers that controlled the mechanics of the game seemed to pay him new attention to his bizarre existence.
- The Cliffhanger: The chapter finished with a sudden change in the environment at the academy or a huge obstacle that had to be overcome, and Geomma was forced to pull out his trusty sashimi knife for a big, serious sword fight.
What Are the Spoilers for The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master Chapter 86?
- Regaining Control: Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master Chapter 86 has been a hot topic among fans, as there is much expectation that Geomma will figure out how to control his dangerous blessing in order that he doesn’t end up permanently damaging his training partners.
- The Harem Expands: The interactions between the female cast are supposed to be more comical and extremely tense. With his recent outburst of uncontrolled power, he must have made them all more obsessed with him than ever.
- A Hidden Enemy: The next chapter may bring in a new villain or a corrupted student with deep connections to the enigmatic “celestial beings,” and Geomma will find himself wielding his culinary blade for his life, not only to fight a villain but to help him survive.
- Culinary Swordsmanship: After the inevitable fight, you should get to see yet another wonderfully illustrated, hilarious series in which Geomma uses her sushi-making skills and tricks of the trade to destroy his opponent’s body armor completely.

Synopsis
Chef Kim, Korea’s legendary sashimi master, is now whisked away into the world of a mobile game he played from time to time, the Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master. He is no power-valiant warrior, but rather an utterly dispensable character who awakens as the innocent, hapless Geomma Kang. But he finds a peculiar cheat: the “Blessing of the Sword God” that gives him unparalleled sword skills, which work only when his sword is the same length as his trusty sashimi knife. With a kitchen knife in hand, Geomma has to slice apart monsters, maneuver the politics of the academy, and deal with a highly aggressive harem as she attempts to create a peaceful life!
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does he use just a sashimi knife?
The condition for his overpowered “Blessing of the Sword God” is very limited. It is only activated and gives him his unparalleled skills if the weapon he holds is of a specific length, the length of a sashimi knife.
Does this manhwa have a romantic element?
Yes, but a strong leaning to comedy. Geomma is always trying to be an extra, but with his overpowering ability to fight with the food, all the other showy female characters fall in love with him.
