Eishi is a 90th Generation student of Tootsuki Culinary Academy and the current 1st seat of the Elite Ten Council. Eishi, despite being the current 1st seat of the Elite Ten Council, is quite pessimistic, feeling that he does not deserve the 1st seat. He feels exasperated by the work forced upon him as the 1st seat and the workload caused by the two Shokugekis during the 43rd Annual Tootsuki Autumn Election. (Source: Shokugeki no Souma Wikia)
