Tossing mountains as a hobby. Yeah. He's frickin' insane. I wonder how this food caste system was organized. The Monkey King doesn't seem like someone who cares enough to do something like that. Actually it's a she. 'Bambina' in italian means 'female child'. She makes me nervous by the way, I want to see her head punched >< Bambina's sex does not necessarily match its etymological sex. At a guess, I'd say Bambina and most of the eight kings probably can reproduce asexually, so I guess we can call them female? Would you just call it by its species name? We would call an amoeba an amoeba because it doesnt need/have gender. Likewise for a starfish. I can't think of any other examples but I would imagine they're the same.
That doesn't help for pronoun purposes though.

The mangaka is japanese, I highly doubt he knows italian or cares well enough to have had thoughts about bambina's gender. He probably just liked the name. It reminds me of Katekyo Hitman Reborn, which was full of italian names and they were mostly terrible, wrong and out of place. Also Bambina looks more male than female so far.

New chapter is amazing. The ending is INSANE I LOVE IT !!!!!!!

Well, the debate about Bambina's sex and name ends abruptly with this chapter. And that ending. The line they put; "And there stood despair" is perfect.

Wow. I expected the Monkey King just to leave. Instead... Well this probably never happened or they can be saved somehow. This isn't GRRM writing the story.

Well the arc just got infinitely more interesting.

In the blink on an eye lol

Pretty weird, but I think this is more of a premonition of what will happen if they attack Bambina, not reality. Just a deep feeling of despair manifesting itself in the form of a visual stimulus. Also the money king being on clevel of 6000 is a bit surprising. The big bad battle wolf had a clevel of 6090 which would make them fairly well-matched. I guess all of the 8 kings have similar levels so they don't out-right kill each other off, but a difference of ~100 at those levels seems insignificant.
Btw anyone remember at what levels Toriko & co. are after the timeskip? ~1000s? ~2000s? K so in chapter 275 Toriko says he can intimidate creatures of clevel 500/600 so he's definitely up there. Zebra being 2nd strongest probably also. Coco and hair-dude might be lagging behind a bit.

On another note other than zebra, the injuries doesn't look that bad (for what we know they could "only" be missing some limbs)

I'm still puzzled how much trouble the simple apes gave them (Magikarp uses "Enbu" - No effect!), yet they easily beat the boss of the area very fast. He couldn't have been that much higher than the small apes, so why would so many small apes kill themselves in fear of the boss of the area if he isn't even much stronger than a few, let alone thousands of them?
