One of the two main heroines in the manga, Erina is initially the primary antagonist of Souma Yukihira, until this develops into more of a friendship. Erina is the only daughter of Azami Nakiri and an unnamed mother who is Senzaemon's biological daughter. Erina often detests whoever is considered "common" due to her regal pedigree and status within the Toutsuki organization. Her "God Tongue" can accurately describe the taste and composition of any food, and she gives harsh critiques to chefs and students alike. However, there have been rare occasions where she gives credit to chefs with skill. She had been promoted as the Elite Ten's 10th seat as a middle-schooler.
