Alice Nakiri, daughter of Sōe and Leonora Nakiri, is the paternal cousin of Erina Nakiri. Raised alongside Erina in the Nakiri Mansion during early childhood, their relationship developed into a rivalry marked by Erina's bullying – incidents like taking Alice's doll at three or harshly criticizing her fourth birthday cake left lasting impressions. Seeking to escape constant comparisons and forge her own path, Alice requested to move to Denmark with her father at age five, specializing in molecular gastronomy and becoming a recognized top expert by nine.
In Northern Europe, Alice encountered Ryō Kurokiba, a young pub head chef. Impressed by his skills, she challenged him to a cooking duel, stipulating he become her aide if he lost. After winning their first match, Ryō challenged her persistently for two years until finally defeating her, earning his respect and the address "milady." She later invited him to Tōtsuki Culinary Academy.
Enrolling in Tōtsuki's middle school division, Alice established herself as a formidable chef despite Erina's overshadowing reputation. In her second year, she claimed the Cutting-Edge Cooking RS clubroom by winning a decisive Shokugeki, advancing to the high school division with the 92nd Generation. Physically resembling her mother, Alice has fair skin, silver hair with a longer left strand reaching her collar, and red eyes. She stands slightly taller than Erina, wears a cream-colored Tōtsuki vest instead of the standard jacket, and dons a short-sleeved chef's uniform with blackish-gray cuffs and collar.
Personality-wise, Alice carries Nakiri family pride, frequently highlighting skill disparities with rivals. As a molecular gastronomy expert, she emphasizes culinary artistry and technical innovation, believing modern chefs must master both. Highly intelligent, she frequently invents new cooking technologies and methodologies. Contrasting Erina, Alice exhibits a cheerful, sociable demeanor, enjoying gossip and casual interactions. She employs cunning tactics, like using reverse psychology to manipulate Erina. However, she is prone to childish outbursts when contradicted or displeased, though these are short-lived. She is notably bossy, directing Ryō to handle most tasks and dominating Jun Shiomi's seminar during the Moon Banquet Festival.
At Tōtsuki High School, Alice participated in events like the Friendship and Rapport Training Camp. Her "Three Forms of Egg Dishes" captivated guests during the breakfast buffet challenge with avant-garde presentation, though she exhausted her ingredients prematurely. This event solidified her rivalry with Sōma Yukihira, whom she first noticed during his defiant orientation speech. She competed in the 43rd Autumn Election, reaffirming her ambition to surpass Erina and dominate the Elite Ten Council. During Azami Nakiri's takeover, Alice assisted Erina's escape from confinement and allied with the resistance against Central. She ultimately attained the 6th Seat of the Elite Ten Council. Her relationship with Erina remains complex, blending familial affection with intense competition; she secretly admires Erina despite openly challenging her, reflecting unresolved childhood dynamics.
