While KuloNiku is a great place to make wonderful friendships, not everyone is quite so willing to pat you on the back or shake your hand.
For every good friend, there’s a competitive rival waiting just around the corner, so it’ll be up to you to earn their respect through a shared love of cooking!
At the start of KuloNiku, you’ll be introduced to the ‘Souper Starz’, a rival band of cooks who believe their Bakso is the best in town. Led by the rockstar chef herself, Stella, you’ll start by trading some barbs back and forth, with Stella underestimating your abilities as a chef, frustrated by your family history, and subtle hints to her connection to your grandma.
With tensions high, before long, you’ll both find yourselves live on Nani TV, settling your differences in a Meatball Brawl to see who is the real top chef!
Beating Stella is just the beginning, though, and starts a leaderboard ranking system for the whole town. Before long, Stella’s biggest fan, Shuga, is desperate to avenge her embarrassment and show you his skills.
Over time, you’ll find yourself competing with a whole host of rivals to see who is the best local chef in KuloNiku!
But when the dust settles and the smoke clears, maybe you and your rival will be able to find some common ground, squash a grudge and turn it into a bond.
Over the course of the story, you’ll meet many others who are eager for the top spot and all the glory that it offers, but can also become a good friend and acquaintance if you take the time to hang out while you grow your reputation.
Will you prove your doubters wrong and be the talk of the town?
