Toriko world is definitely influenced by HxH. When I try to introduce people to Toriko, I tell them it's a whole storyline about gourmet hunters like those in the HxH hunter exam. Then (HxH spoilers) + Show Spoiler + the author of HxH went full lazy (imo) and invented a larger outside world akin to the gourmet world in Toriko But the similarities stop here. The worlds are different enough, it's not the same universe. hxh spoilers + Show Spoiler + food immersion as in eating a lot of food and gathering/condensing their essence into the body similar to how the chimeras power up. half of the arc was about how the queen had to eat enough and the other half was about the king eating enough "good food" pressure: remember the pressure felt when they first went into the upper levels of battle tower, or killua's instinctive flight response when he met pitou, expelling nen/aura/killing intent is pretty prevalent in most shonens. routine=conditions to power up moves, similar to how gon must scream and pose to do his janken, routines are the restrictions put on moves to power up, supreme routine's conditions looks like a perfect mental picture of the move in mind, so the detriment seems to be required mental clarity. I do agree, its a crazy stretch, but I keep looking at the two and thinking about the similarities, and the nen system explains their powers/abilities really well. I feel they could easily be the same universe, just at different timelines, which came first can be up for debate but I feel that acacia was a lone gourmet hunter that started the gourmet age, triggering a flood of hunters focused on food. | ||

Seems kind of stupid to give yourself an armor made of metal against a fire user. Once the armor melts it's just going to continue burning your skin. | ||

It's just that way. He doesn't really summon forks but the effect is like he does and people actually see forks. | ||

I'm pretty sure Toriko lost his leg. He visionned it and decided it was the best course of action just to let it be cut in order to win the fight. | ||

I brought it up a few pages ago, since I have to agree it is getting abit confusing. It seems there is no consensus about this yet. | ||

It seems there is no consensus about this yet. its a metaphorical fork with a physical form he makes actual forks out of his energy that have real physical shape but he can dematerialize them at will the exception is when hes doing a melee fork attack at taht time there is no fork and hes just hardening his hand | ||
