After searching through the general forum, I notice that there is a lack of Toriko thread. Toriko has slowly become one of my favorite mangas, and it is getting more and more popular in Japan too. Thus, I thought why not create this thread, since there is currently none.
Obviously this thread contains spoilers, so read at your own caution.
Toriko:
In the world where the taste and texture of food are very important, there is Toriko, a hunter of precious foods regularly hired by restaurants and the rich. He's a man with the inhuman skills necessary to capture the ferocious, evasive, and rare animals to complete his ultimate dinner course! His current accomplice is a weak, timid person who was inspired by Toriko's greatness and accompanies him on all his journeys on his quest for the course of his life.

I love toriko and Im happy you made this thread !
manga is really getting interesting now that they are about to enter the gourmet world :D
|
haha
i watched the animation when it first aired and i was really taken back to the dragonball days, except toriko was just so awesome. the anime is now not as exciting as the first 20 or so episodes, so i might begin reading to keep up from now on~
the characters, the humor, the absolute craziness... it was like i was a little kid again with how ridiculous the entire show was.
unfortunately, i don't like admitting to being a little kid at heart, so it may be a manga that i read in secret :>!

Good thing about arcs nowadays: You dont feel like eating every damn time you read something about it :D
For the 4 heavenly kings, Sani is my favorite, cus he is bea'tiful, and you're GROAAAAAAHSSSSSSSSS!!
+ Show Spoiler +That was unfunny, but given the latest chapter sani does scream that and his anger is the best in this manga, toriko is a bit too... "timid" in that like coco he is a nice guy but he is not nearly as reserved as coco is, he is just the over all good guy which can make him boring from time to time
Really cool manga, I would definitly recommend it for laughter and hunger inducing moments!
Bacon trees... :3

|
I love Toriko too; great read. Humour and interesting battle mechanics ftw.
|
|
|

|

How about an introduction in the opening post?

And yet Nana means even more female viewers. Weird how that works huh?

This is one of my fav mangas out right now.
|
I just watched the first two episodes, it's really awesome but man if you are a vegan you are going to cry.
It reminds me in a way of Chuuka Ichiban. I'm currently watching the anime, how does it compare to the manga?
|
been following this Manga for ages and glad it got its thread on TL :D definently my fav manga going on right now
TBH though im a bit concerned with how massive a power up the 4 guys got and how absolutely they crushed the 4 saint beasts despite it being not that long ago Toriko and Zebura struggled agaisnt the Salamander Sphinx
really looking forward to the up coming fight though
|
yeah but anything in the gourmet world is like 100000000000000000000000000000000000x more powerful
i like the manga it makes me hungry

well toriko and co learnt food honor that increased his power alot

Where can I find chapter one? Because the link I found on google doesn't have chapter 1.

I love this manga, reminds me of DBZ, but the fact that it centers around food and eating really appeal to me.

I liked this manga for the first few story arcs when it came out but eventually I had to give up on it as seems the author developed ADD and every arc was 2-3 chapters and really just not interesting. Everything is suddenly super strong and it makes the beginning seem like a sham. This is coming from someone who didn't mind the transition from Dragonball to Dragonball Z.
Also, the anime was REALLY badly made. They skipped half the scenes and it felt so rushed, it was ridiculously bad; and I'm talking about arcs I liked in the manga. Almost as bad as what they did to Hunter X Hunter's anime remake.
|
Well Kurr you shouldn't really expect much from anime adaptations.. Manga is one thing anime usually is not done by the same author and has alot more fillers etc..
This manga is cool, funny and diferent! It's amazing to see the authors imagination.. Don't take it to seriously!
In the end the hero is always a strong, spiky hair, eat allot good guy, that fights for his friends and don't really like girls! That's a shonnen manga for you!
This arc is just to show off their new powers while the war for GOD doesn't start..
|
Well there were some pretty long ( and awesome btw ) arcs. "Hell Ice" comes to my my mind.

im worried that the power ups were too crazy since Ichiryuu said that Toriko was almsot strong enough to enter the Gourmet World but needed to be able to adapt to numerous environments first
about the short arcs, i kinda think of this manga sort of like a gag manga like Gintama, theres a main plot but between the main arcs (like Ice Hell, gourmet Pyramid e.t.c) there are short one or two chapter arcs that are just for the laughs and dont affect the main plot (though in Toriko instead of laughs its for showing cool foods)

http://www.mangareader.net/toriko/202
new chapter is out
+ Show Spoiler + looking good so far IMO they got beat around a good bit in this chapter but the things capture level 300 so id be worried if they could hold there own going at it one at a time like that hope they dont focus too much on the cooks making the food in the following chapters really want to see this fight, wonder if well see the fry punch guy and knocking JR fight at all
|
+ Show Spoiler +This is truly a hard challenge for Toriko and the other Heavenly Kings. You know s*** just get serious when even Zebra is injured. I think the next chapter we will see the first time all 4 of them cooperate. It would be quite interesting since the 4 have very different fighting style.
|
+ Show Spoiler +I love how the author has stopped including the number of "Kugi punches" that Toriko does. Also Coco's abilities seem a bit lackluster compared to the other 3. They can all demolish skyscrapers and all he can do shoot poison arrows.
|
The four beast is really fucking strong.

his ability is alot less flashy true

looking forward to next week

Heys guys I was considering to start reading the manga but im kinda disapointed by shounen lately . I love OP and HxH and started to hate even more Naruto, Fairy Tail and Bleach lately.
I dont wanna read this if its similar to the 2nd group i mentioned.
|
If you like OP and HxH, then you'll definitely love Toriko - Toriko is all about crazy adventures and places
Toriko starts slow just like OP and HxH, so hang in there - it's worth it
|
though I do feel as if you're doing Fairy Tail (and Naruto to a certain extent) a great injustice by putting it together with Bleach
|

Thanks a lot. I tried several links on google but had the same result but thanks for this link.

I'll add the link for ppl who can't open the 1st one.

The Four Beast being lvl 320 should provide considerable challenge for the 4 kings.
Also my 3 favourite shonen manga are Toriko, HxH and OP.

could be that the meter is slow, or maybe he hasnt finished completely absorbing the 4 beasts, or hes being pumped with more power by the mysterious person working behind the scenes

I like how Komatsu is actually useful and not just a tool only to show how strong and badass Toriko is.

I love this manga~
New girl Nono?
Guess she's going to be in some relationship to Komatsu
How old is Komatsu anyways...
he looks like 13 or something
But I remember him saying that he was legal to drink in that one chapter

Komatsu is so awesome... ^^ Finish it early, so make it more delicious.

I knew it from the first few chapters, the author will not forget about Komatsu like other authors do about sidekicks!

Komatsu is the 2nd biggest character in the story - he's not just a sidekick, he's a semi-protagonist. The manga may as well be named Toriko&Komatsu

We finally get to see the 4 Heavenly Kings collaborate yay. So pump for next chapter.
|
|
|
its like dragonball z where a guy takes 2 episodes to charge spirit bomb or w/e
|
so final chapter Toriko takes all the appetite from everyone on Earth to shoot at final boss guy whatever his name is 
was really hoping for some other badass move where they all attack in such a way that each of them peel away some of the 4 beasts defenses so taht toriko can get in the perfect nail punch right to the guys core

I'm curious what the capture level for that was. Should serve that to Toriko he'll probably eat it while orgasming over how delicious the fat juice is...obviously they need to fillet it first to remove the form of the meat.
I'm wondering if the mangaka is going for a school day-esque ending where Toriko goes insane, spits roast Kohmatsu (not that way) and enjoys the meal while sitting on a chair made from the skin and bones of Terry.

|
+ Show Spoiler +honestly the only reason I dislike Teppei living is because the final page from last week was SO GOOD
this just kinda...destroyed it. Not to mention that despite having dealt with pretty much the "the end of humanity", there were 0 casualities. NO ONE was killed.

shit
at least its only a month and a bit....

+ Show Spoiler +Suffered from what the last chapter suffered from...introduced too many new faces and didn't accomplish much. Still it sets the stage for the first event. Since Komatsu doesn't have the stamina to compare to the other musclebound chefs, he has to make up for it in his cooking.
Cool to see Chef Zaus though.

+ Show Spoiler + gonna be interesting to see how this event goes they havent really talked at all about the chefs aside from Setsuno aside from slight mentioning before so i like seeing the other top 100 chefs getting some attention
|
|
|
I'm curious if Komatsu will find some great secret ingredient that now one else sees under the whole pile, or if he will just make a great meal out of low class ingredients. I can see him getting praised by the 3rd rank cook since only Komatsu and him will be at the beach by the time Komatsu done swimming.
|
My guess is him making something godly out of scraps.
|
Sounds about right
He struggles to get ingredients, is left over with poor things and has to make do with them
However, with his food genius/love, he finds one miraculous ingredient to save him
|
even if its not the best class ingredients i would say hed be able to make a better dish then 50 other chefs, and get into the top
the organizers probably have hidden some special ingredients taht dont look that great but are actually amazing
|
Thanks for letting me discover this fantastic manga!! I'm already at chapter 49, it's so good

I read the first few chapters when it came out on shonenjump (I used to have a subscription to the japanese version).
Thought the manga was awesome, and was dissapointed when I saw critics trash it and give it terrible ratings.
Surprised its been this long for a thread to come up, I'm glad that people who actually enjoy reading manga like it and that I'm not alone.

Well at least now the critics have changed their mind . Toriko currently has one of the highest rating for a Shonnen ( about top 5, or is it 10 :/ )

I was really disappointed when Zebra refuse to form a combo with Tengu. That would had been very cool.

Toriko currently has one of the highest rating for a Shonnen ( about top 5, or is it 10 :/ )
Says allot about the expertise of these "critics" no?
|
You have to admit it doesn't really push the boundaries of art, character development, etc. within the shounen genre though... I just like it because of the refreshing and usually hilarious theme of everything being food related instead of generic monsters/powers but you can't really call it one of the best.

Well.....that's certainly not good...
+ Show Spoiler + So Starjuun and the others came when the first match didn't even start yet...thats new, would have thought the tournament would get through a few rounds before all hell broke loose.
Also WTF was with Buranchi? did he just put double A batterys into his neck arteries?
<3 Toriko
|
+ Show Spoiler + holy shit how did starjun pull that off? i think Zaus is with the Bishokukai since he siad its his last time dispite it being the first round (new they were going to act before the second round) plus that explains how Zaus didnt stop him still amazing that Starjun managed to get into the tent undiscovered
wonder what Starjuns next move is though he seems to like Komatsu so maybe jsut a warning?
edit: cool looking back int he other chapters you can totally see the spots the batteries go in

holy shit that last spread is giving me chills

+ Show Spoiler +This whole chapter:
"Koma-cchan!"
"Ume-chan!"

Or maybe another 0th biotope guy arrives
Or everybody gets fucked over except 4 heavenly kings + buranchi and a few others

The fights are so epic. This is the manga I am looking for the most each week after One Piece.
+ Show Spoiler +good bye tommyrod, nice knowing you
|
o man this manga is getting better and better
|
well that was brutal
if I'm not mistaken this is also the first real 'casuality' of war - a character dying that wasn't introduced in this arc
|
I LOVE TORIKO FIGHTS
i hate fights in other mangas where half the time both sides look they got a couple scrapes and then get a few bandaids and it all worked out in Toriko both sides look they go through a meat grinder it looks like an actual fight to the death where both sides only care about killing the other ^.^
also surprised Tommy is dead O.O thought he would continue to be a recurring villain glad the author isnt afraid to kill people off
|
Well, when you get beaten twice, first by the he protagonist then by the sidekick, you become irrelevant as a villain. Either that or he would have been killed by his own boss anyway.
|
Toriko did not beat Tommy, he would've been killed if Teppei hadn't intervened. And Sani is not a sidekick by any means. The 4 heavenly kings, with the exception of Zebra are pretty much always kept relatively equal in terms of strength (Zebra being ahead of them). Yes, Toriko is the protagonist, but it's like with One Piece, Luffy is the protagonist, but Zoro isn't a sidekick.
|
Kinna wanted to see more weird badass bugs in the future, but meh guess not : (
|
I was hoping that he would transform into some mega awesome big bad bug before dying in the end . But it was cool nonetheless. Now wonder how Grinpach vs Coco will be like.

He is not his sidekick story-wise, but he is in the grand shonen scheme of things.

Also, Zebra possibly makes one of the epicest intros to the fight he could have, though I suppose after Zebra it's gonna be Setsunoo vs Chiyo/Gourmet Knights and Yakuza vs that Sommerlier of death or Coco vs Grinpatch after Zebra?
I'm personally looking forward to the Setsunoo fight ALOT, as Komatsu, Zebra, Toriko, Sani and Coco has plot armor, I wouldn't really say anyone else has it
And I'd be sad if Mansam died and I bet they are going to Buranchi's place after this, cus even if they beat the Bishokukai the NEO guys are gonna own the shit

maybe this ques Jirous arrival knight in shining armour

+ Show Spoiler +The new chapter just showed that Setsuno is on another level above Chiyo. Since she said that the Zaus only won those fes because she was busy and not there, thus so far only Joa has legitimately triumped Setsuno in a cooking contest. I have a feeling that Joa might be related to Frohze somehow.

Ah alright, makes sense. It confuses the shit out of me when all of the sudden food and plates and shit get thrown into the mix.
It can get a bit absurd at times. It's the same with Torikos 'fork'. At first I thought it was just a visual representation of a gust of sharp wind being thrown at his opponent, but now, with steel coming into it, that doesnt seem to make sense anymore.
Ah, perhaps I shouldnt overthink things in this particular manga.
Yeah, I agree on the gay thing. I don't have anything against it however. Gotta have manga of all kinds.
Everyone is just hot for komatsu it seems. It's like harem for men only, whatever that is called.

Yeah just go with the flow, the fights and the characters are very enjoyable. But I can't think of any shonen with a stranger combat system xD
|
As I understand it, imaru taught him the Pre-Shot Routine, which is essentially repeatedly doing the technique in your mind until you can see the way to do it flawlessly, thus performing the attack without wasted power. The Ultimate Routine is a step above that, where you must imagine the path to victory which subconsciously increases your power and technique due to your confidence and concentration. In essence, though, it is a vaguely explained Shonen powerup.
+ Show Spoiler +Did Coco lose? We did see Grinpatch recovering but no sign of Coco. He hasn't been getting any time lately.
I guess we saw a bit of Mansam's past, which is nice.

If you follow hunterxhunter the nen system works very well with the world of toriko (hell hxh even has gourmet hunters as seen in the hunter exam) the following explains their powers in hxh terms. may contain spoilers for hxh (including manga)
Essentially everyone has a form of energy to project and use as their power this can manifest itself in different ways, in the beginning toriko uses the energy to reinforce his blows, eventually emitting the energy as ranged attacks, now hes transforming the energy into steel. To contrast Coco uses his energy to transmute into poison, able to emit it and eventually then reinforcing it for armor, the opposite progression from Toriko. Zebra's energy manifests as sound and shows emission, transformation properties.
Sani's feelers seems to be that a of a specialist he conjures more and manipulates it.
In the world of toriko I believe this energy is called "appetite energy" which the 4 kings used to defeat the 4 beast.
I actually have a crazy theory that the world of toriko is the future of hxh, in which hxh was the events of the war that God stopped. The world map is the same (human world surrounded by the unknown world) even the food hunters are equivalent and the energy system feels the same as described above. Hell the hxh world even has a mechanism to create new creatures and hybrids through the chimera ants, not too much a stretch to imagine the crazy creatures from toriko can exist in a world that contains chimeras.
|
Yeah and how do you explain food immersion, food pressure and supreme routine in HxH terms? :p
But yeah there is a funny relation between HxH and Toriko. 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.

+ 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.

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

Imo Joa is the son of Acacia and Frohze.
|
so if mysterious stranger is Joa im now really curious why he was there when the 4 beast attacked, and whys hes in disguise like this
im thinking Joa may not be entirely a bad guy
|
Well he does not look super friendly. The four beast is a revived beast, and it has been said that only the legendary saiseiya Mohyan Shaishai could have revived the four beast. After the four beast incident, Teppei was last seen trying to find Mohyan Shaishai. Maybe he found him and he happened to be with Joa or be himself Joa?
Quick recap of the groups in the story so far.
1. IGO & friends
2. Bishokukai
3. Joa & friends
4. Jirou & friends
5. Mohyan Shaishai (unless he is Joa / part of Joa's group)

Yeah I know right. The badass level of characters kept increasing rapidly in a few chapters but I do not find it awkward or weird at all because it's quite consistent with what the author has told us all along. The characters just haven't had the chance to show it, until now.
Also I love Toriko style of face drawing. From Zebra, to Ichiryuu, to Setsuno, and now Jirou. They are all so fuckin epic.

we havent seen Zebura really trying to break out, and he didnt really do much to Setsuno he only grabbed her legs
he was able to deal with Tommyrod fairly easily so hes a level above the sous chefs and the 4 kings but hes still a couple levels below the real heavywieghts like biotope Zero
http://www.mangareader.net/toriko/225/19
was just rereading the cooking fest and realised that Sanis Devil Hair is just like what Torikos final attack against Starjun (int aht both of them were bringing there "gourmet cells outside"
|
|
|
Toriko chapters are always exciting to read.
|
so Joa is an alien i guess
|
I guess before meeting Acacia, Jirou was somewhat like Zebra. Extremely powerful in raw strength, wild a reckless, so his ingredients were likely to be disintegrated too much to be cooked. Then Acacia teacher him knocking, which allowed Jirou to use the gigantic power without destroying everything.
|
Hahaha, I got the most awesome elated feeling reading that chapter.
I mean, Toriko has had some pretty ridiculous power ranges that seem to be impossible to comprehend, and now finally we get a real understanding of exactly what that level is.
|
And.. Midora / Ichiryuu are supposed to both be stronger than Jirou - wonder whaat broken shit they are gonna pull off
I wonder what motive frohze has, it's not like she hasn't eaten GOD before.
also this "old man dharma" and tengu's home village might be where toriko and friedns takes shelter.

I wonder what motive frohze has, it's not like she hasn't eaten GOD before.
also this "old man dharma" and tengu's home village might be where toriko and friedns takes shelter.
Might not be really frohze, eyes are different and cracked skin indicates to me a bodysnatcher or if hes taking a hint from naruto, a resurrection technique, given his attacks so far (changing flavor, resurrection UP) both of these sounds more likely than it being Frozhe. I feel like we might be getting to the chekov's gun shown in the meteor garlic arc where Toriko is interested in a memory stored in the casino. Maybe if memories can be preserved and stored...why not a whole person? perhaps, memories of not just food but also of techniques and personalities can be stored as well so joa can download and use frozhe's techniques long after she's died.
Didn't zebra already meet dharma? thats where he got his horse right.

If Frohze is there then glutton old man might be Acacia :D

Yeah but he did off screen though :p
also, if you're right it sounds like Joa will barely be defeated by Jirou and then he will take over Jirous body instead, which would make sense cus then each of Acacia's disciples are on the sides of IGO, bishokukai and NEO.
On the other hand, Joa is kinda hyped to be similar to those 3 regardless, especially if he beats / stands even with Jirou
|
Wow, that was so epic. I think Jirou's appearance is akin to Shanks appearance during Marineford arc. Nobody can't do a thing against Jirou or Joa and I don't think they will seriously fight each other at this point of the story. Hopefully a little skirmish (that may blow the whole island still) but then they will probably talk to wrap it up and move the plot forward. On her way out, Joa might kidnap Komatsu though.
I have a feeling Greenpatch is part of Joa's group and that's why he (probably) hasn't killed Coco. After all, some NEO guys said they have people in the bishokukai, I am curious to find out who.

The funniest thing about Jirou as he was introduced in this chapter is that part of his strength is sealed... What can he do with his entire strength considering he already nearly stopped the rotation of the earth without it ?

On that note, it is worth mentioning that the planet they live on (don't know what they call it, may be Earth), is much, much larger than our Earth. It is mentioned that in "human world" there lives 30 billion humans (or is it 300 billion? Something like that), and that is just a little piece of the planet. This makes Jirou even more ridicilously op :p
|
lol Toriko is so nonsense but i really like it!
nice chapter, leaves the door open for so many changes!
|
I think at their prime the 3 strongest were Ichiryuu, Jirou and Midora in that order, based on their order of being Acacia's disciples and the scared apple levels arc. But we all know only Midora keeps his prime form while others retired.
However I think each of the 3 of them was best at different things and Acacia taught them accordingly. Like Jirou was the strongest in raw strength and Acacia taught him knocking. Midora might be fastest and Ichiryuu had the most amount of energy stored or sth.

Joa was talking about peoples thoughts being savoriness and flavour so i think that he ate Frohzes mind and can take on her apearence

Just started reading this manga...just read the chapter that ended with them eating the puffer fish whale. Really loving it so far, what a fun manga.

I think 2nd in power in term of chef only. Not counted Alfaro and Midora. Also I don't understand how can the author manage to make every character so fuckin badass.

Interesting development. but why would Starjun return to the stadium? Hmm. Anyway that look at the end. So badass.
Freaking epic manga, I don't understand why it is not more popular.

New chapter is out
+ Show Spoiler +What the heck Ichiryu went down what the shit noooo!!! My most anticipating fight is off-panel ? I wanna see the awesome Melk blade in action god damn it. Also it seems like the fights where the good guys lost ( Coco vs Grinpatch, Midora vs Ichiryu) all went off-panel er ?
Also now there are 3 sides in the manga. Neo is a monster with Joa being quite overpowered right now. Bishokukai is also has the strongest character in the whole manga currently in addition with this new power-up Starjun. And Igo side is in terrible shape right now. Their president was defeated. Is he still alive ? Komatsu is gone. Coco is no where to be seen. Mansam is most likely the new Igo president as stated but Shige pwned him quite hard. With this new power, Starjun was not even afraid of Joa, so I think no one in Igo can stand up to him right now ( not counted Jirou, but do we even consider Jirou as Igo ? )
|
Starjun has a Jagan eye from yu yu hausho now......this manga just got twice as awesome.
looks like this arc is starting to wrap up a bit now...i would assume that after recovering Toriko and gang will venture to the gourmet world to rescue Komatsu and stuff.

Exactly my sentiment. But I doubt either Coco or Ichiryu are dead so we'll see more of them hopefully. Jirou is not IGO but that might change now given the circumstances

+ Show Spoiler +Yeah I thought it would be slower too. I wonder if the battles somewhat means that not everything will happen anyway.
Of course, god wasn't noted right? And the president's full course is still to be discovered.
Anyway, maybe not all these battles will result in the discovery of certain ingredients. The fact that Joa's peeps aren't present at any means it's not even 3 way yet.

+ Show Spoiler +The octo-pussy has arrived lol But I wanna see Ichiryuu's flying unicorn though

I love the way the 0th biotope staff and the bishokukai taunt each other Very cheesy but very enjoyable :D

I feel like a bunch of the latest chapters have just been fillers though, like listing all the battles in 1 issue, or how when they started the chef tournament 1 chapter was just listing a bunch of chefs, many of who ended up not being part of the plot at all.

i like this manga, reminds me of monster hunter. i also like eating till I cant move anymore sometimes ^^

What a set up chapter. Still, it's pretty boss.
But yeah, comments here are how I feel. At the moment there are literally hundreds of supporting characters in Toriko I care nothing about. I think the manga-ka is losing his grip on developing interesting characters.
|
is it me or does this manga really like to set something up and never finish it? so far the things that have not been wrapped up are...
From the intermission between the Shining Gourami and Meteor Garlic arcs
+ Show Spoiler +What is the secret behind the President's full course? They set it up so that it would seem Komatsu the guy to unlock it but didn't go anywhere with it.
From Meteor Garlic arc
+ Show Spoiler +What was the memory Toriko was interested in in the Gourmet Casino? seems quite important since he was pretty disgusted about the memories when he first saw him, it wouldn't be something sure awesome or else livebearer wouldn't have just left it out in the open. My guess is something personal to Toriko but its anyone's guess.
From the end of the Four Beast Arc
+ Show Spoiler +What is gourmet national treasure saiseya Mohyan Shaishai's role? He is introduced as the only man able to revive the four beast and the last thing Teppei wanted to do was investigate him before he showed up with his flavor changed. Is he aligned with Joa and NEO?
From Cooking Fest arc (ongoing)
+ Show Spoiler +What is the outcome of the fight between Coco and Grinpatch? They're down in that hole for coco to unleash his technique. You see Grinpatch get stunned when Jirou knocks the whole world...perhaps that even affected their battle?
What is komatsu doing with his book from the pyramid? Joa seems to be very keen on it but why has he waited all this time to get it?
How does Yun fly?? Seriously penguins are flightless birds and I seriously question the aerodynamics of this mechanic. Does Yun have special powers? Does being in the yellow sun away from ice hell power him up? We need answers people
Last but the most important:
+ Show Spoiler +
What is Toriko doing about his Full course??? seriously the dude hasn't put anything in there since forever, right now it consists of BB corn (which he uses as dog food), Century soup (which you can just stroll into hotel gourmet and order), and Rainbow fruit (capture level 12....guess its rarer now that the 8th biotope is gone). At this rate zebra will finish his full course way before Toriko...and he started 130 chapters later than Toriko).
Not counting the 16 battles he just set up in this 0th biotope vs Bishokukai arc he decided to do in the middle of the cooking fest arc.

you could see that as good stuff actually, if hes spreading that much foreshadowing then maybe he actually plans the story well instead of all the mangas (bleach) who dont
also mosquito guy crawled out of the hole a while ago im 99% certain century soup is not on the menu at hotel gourmet and it makes perfect sense for Toriko to wait to fill his full course with the tastiest stuff from the gourmet world
Yun flys with the power of magic same way all the completely illogical beasts in Toriko continue existing in there illogcialness

Ah you're right totally forgot about grinpatch crawling out of hole.
Century soup is the reason Hotel Gourmet went from a 5 star to a 6 star restaurant, how could it not be ordered there if its the only reason the hotel's rank was raised.
Wall penguins don't fly...yet yun does, this isn't just magical animals.... its an animal species that is inconsistent within the universe...not gonna let that argument fly man (pun intended).
Also its not that I don't like Toriko being picky about his full course.. its just that it seems like he's completely forgot about the fact that he has one. Does he consider putting the madam fish as his fish dish? does he compare the bubble fruit to his rainbow fruit? It seems like he's forgotten about the whole thing.
|

think it was more "hot damn this chef has chops give them another star" if the soup is being sold itd be only to extreme VIPs unless Yun spends his free time hung to the ceiling drooling in vats
Wall penguins don't fly...yet yun does, this isn't just magical animals.... its an animal species that is inconsistent within the universe...not gonna let that argument fly man (pun intended).
wall penguins dont fly? dont tell his parent that (unless you think they were amazing jumpers)
does he compare the bubble fruit to his rainbow fruit? It seems like he's forgotten about the whole thing.
guess starving to death distracted him >.> okay you may have a point that he hasnt mentioned his full course lately but his full course is not the point of this manga, God is
(also the Rainbow Fruit was a dessert and had the heaviness he desired in the final bite, the Bubble fruit wasnt and was also very light)

I've got to say, obviously we're still missing the proper strength of Midora.
Sure, the tongue is ok.
But Jiro knocked the world.
Ichi is flying and is about to use minority world or whatever.
Midora? Nothing more than a tongue so far. For one of the disciples, it's got to be just a prelude. I expect he's got something else enormous hidden away. Because manga.

Well, I guess Ichiryuu needs to lose somehow.

last time they fought Ichiryuu wiped the floor with him though
http://www.mangareader.net/toriko/247/16
so maybe Midora is simply the weakest out of all of them?
though he did completely ahnihalate that tiger octo thing though so saying hes weak is pretty relative to the monsters Ichi and Jirou are
my guess is Midora is about to pull out some sort of super forbidden power that noone is ever supposed to use though

reading through some old chapter I just realized that it was Joa that informed Chiyo of "Center", this is certainly his silhuette

Really nice little chapter and looks like we're gonna get a bunch of answers soon about Acacia...
Also, judging how Midora looks in this flashback. Im making the call that hes Toriko's biological father, he looks just like Toriko with the hair and scar-looking birthmarks.

the 4 kings were raised as chain beasts fighting in the Colloseum so there probably all clones grown from birth with gourmet cells
Zebra has his ripped cheek, so i think that the 4 kings fought something early on kinda like how they fought the 4 beast and that thing they fought gave Toriko those scars and slashed Zeburas cheek
|
i didn't mean to imply the scar was genetic (mainly cause i dont know is Midora's are actual scars), im saying that both characters are drawn like that intentionally because i think there blood relatives. Just like how in One Piece Luffy and Garp both have similar looking scars on their faces but its got fuckall to do with passing on traits.

well looking at Ichiryuu then and looking at Coco now there might be a bit of a similarity
so then Sani would be Acacia, Coco would be Ichiryuu, Zebura would be Jirou and Toriko would be Midora IChiryuu may have taken some DNA from each and grown a new clone, that would explain why Sani seems farther ahead in controlling his gourmet cells

Why not, maybe he got hit by a similar technique as Zaus' cycle of reincarnation cut.

waht if Midora doesnt actually win? what if those 2 figure out whats going on at the kitchen fest and go to fight the fake-Frohze?
|
http://www.mangapanda.com/toriko/252 another good character chapter
ALSO Acacia just confirmed Midora's 'scars' are genetic....which makes my Toriko = Midora's son theory incredibly likely/plausible....called it =p
|
this is getting really interesting, enjoying the flashback
|
Love. This. Manga. Even though it's a flashback IN THE GREATEST FIGHT EVER I still find myself excited!
|
This chapter was amazing, Midora is such a badass...
|
Man that chapter was sooooo good.
|
|
|
Definitely seems to imply it.
After reading this chapter, I seem to dislike Midora as a character even more, I find his reason to eat God to be a little stupid, but i suppose he an antagonist.
|
Really good flashback story.
+ Show Spoiler +
So Komatsu's knife is made from Derous's fang, who is shown guarding the "Cure Water". Does that mean his knife has healing abilities? I am just reminded when Komastsu tries to attack Starjun and he says, "...that kitchen knife is not something for harming people. (From Chapter 239)

+ Show Spoiler +seems ambiguous, maybe starjun means literally that komatsu shouldnt hurt people cos he should only use the knife to cook ingredients. Nevertheless, the fact that the derous dragon was mentioned twice doesnt seem to be a coincidence, so I totally agree with ur idea

Wasn't Joa = Frohze a given when we saw Joa's face a while back?
The plot twist would be that Joa isn't Frohze at this point :p
How she became this way would be the exposition, obviously.

it was Derous's descendant i thought guarding it (or did i read it wrong?) nto derous itself

Setsuna said that isnt frohze, and the gourmet cells are different so it seemed like it was jsut someone pretending to be Frohze
but now it seems like the Cure Water brought the body back to life but didnt actually bring Frohze back so now the body is just like a mass of gourmet cells without it actually being Frohze
|
I always though that the missing National treasure dude was behind joa and NEO. I thought for a while that he had revived Frohze similarly to the four beast etc and merged their cells together to become Joa. Just my stupid idea though.
We will probably find out soon but why wouldn't Jirou recognize or be a but more disturbed by seeing Frohze as Joa? He knows shes dead but doesn't seem to think anything of her being Joa. Really love this manga.So many EPIC characters and so many questions.

Feels
Man Midora such a whiny little kid

I thought for sure they'd take each other out, or at least Midora would be crippled for life because there's a lot of tension between Toriko and Staarjun but very little between Toriko and Midora...
And what about all the other Gourmet World fights, looks like Midora can one shot the world right now with his hax powers.
Hopefully zombie Frohze kills him soon I guess~

I found the new episode in spanish and damn guys shit just went down.. + Show Spoiler +is Acacia the real enemy? :O

+ Show Spoiler +NOOOO ICHIRYUUUUUUUU WHYYYYYYY That was even worse than being killed by Midora (assuming he died ) And plot twists, plot twists everywhere Although it was bit hinted at earlier on when the 3rd party emerged I didn't think that they were the "true" antagonists though

Ever since they tried to make Starjun (I can never spell that guys name) look a little lost and real, and after the Midora flash backs, I think definitely Joa and co are appearing as the main antagonists.
I like the little introduction of how the eight beasts work. Since the four beast destruction, I was really worried that it would just be humans vs humans forever even after all the interesting creature designs.
Ichiryuu's mention of seeds is interesting. His full course is a more interesting mystery than Acacia's for me.

+ Show Spoiler + NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tragedy everywhere, I hope the members of the 0th aren't dead, I rather liked them even though the author didn't really show us much about them. I was wondering though, was that nitro that Toriko met when finding the ozone herb a blue nitro? Finally, killing Ichiryuu after making me think he would live is like giving a child a lollipop then slapping them and taking it away from them. TT

Ichiryu dies in 254, lives in 255, dies again in 256 ! lol I love this manga.
|
Really enjoyed that Chapter! So is Acacia still about and hes the true enemy? Or is it frohze/Joa? Or the Blue Nitro/Pair? Yosaku has got to be my favourite character still though. Doubt the 0th guys are dead but I'm interested in seeing how many of each side are actually NEO, seems like its quite alot. Also how how come Starjuun knew about Neo/Joa but Midora didn't seem to? Though if Midora knew about Neo I doubt he would have been too fussed but I would of thought he would have been more careful like Ichi. Man so many questions. Love this manga.

he did meet a Blue Nitro
i still think its different from the other Nitro though, the other Nitro weve seen wouldnt have been to passive

Midora doesnt seem too interested in the day to day runnings of his organization (has to ask wiater how many are ready for GW) so they probably dont let him know how many spies and traitors they unearth

up a bit late but whatever =D
Pretty interesting world building stuff here, apparently the world of Toriko use to be just like ours at some point.
Also hints at going to SPAAAAACE in the far future i would think which would be sick lol
|
Haha, and the world of Toriko gets even more crazy (in a good and funny type of way).
|
Lol what a chapter... even the "info dump" chapters in Toriko are plain crazy :D
|
Intriguing Chapter with all that info. I still can't wait to find out where Midora is Taking Ichiryuu and whats next for that part of the story!
|
Good Chapter for info. Still can't wait for the continuation of the Midora/Ichi story. I really want to find out how Jirou and joa relate to Midora in power as imo Midora seems to be ahead of the pack in that case. I felt as though Jirou was always the strongest of the three and (above Ichi) was more likely to be = to Midora but I'm not sure if Joa is actually a match for them. Midora defintatly seems to be the strongest in the verse so far imo but lacks the information people like ichi and joa have to complete crush the oppostion and achieve his goals.
|
Toriko has set everything up so far with the premise that everything is food. The origin story for the world seems to be one where even the planet itself was seasoned and prepared as an ingredient. Just a question as to what entity/alien race is going around preparing whole planets in that fashion, and how they inevitably go about consuming the planets they prepare.

not neccesarily the rock could have just been a pice of some planet that broke off and landed on earth doesnt have to be a deliberate action from some alien race
but if there are Aliens its totally the Nitros

just think about the "meteor spice" Midora performed not long ago.
Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro did a great job including our "real life world" into a manga!

Nice speech by based Jirou but I'm not sure I like the implication that Ichi was stronger than Midora. Though I expect Ichi to have not shown all of his abilities, Midora should be stronger imo given hes alot bigger and has been eating the highest quality food from both the human and gourmet world. Plus It's kinda boring when the old leader guy is killed despite being the strongest for no reason.

they both said as much during there fight though i think Ichi was trying to find a way to connect to Midora, if it wasnt for the nitro he and Ichi would have completed there heart to heart and maybe teamed up to destroy Neo
or maybe he decided he wouldnt be able to do what it would take to stop Neo so had to entrust his will to Midora? if Acacia is the final boss Ichi may have felt he couldnt fight him and entrusted Midora with that

6k!?
Well to be fair, if the 8 kings are meant to be stronger than anyone we know by far, they've got to be that far ahead. I guess that was to give us a gauge on Toriko's power. I'm actually looking forward to vs animals again. Hoping thats a thing.

Holy Shit dem numbers. Explains why everything shown so far is such fodder to the disciples I guess if they're stronger than 6k. Damn.
|
so given they said up until this chapter was the first Act (Human World Arc) I would think its safe to assume the manga as a whole is about 1/3 done.
Also i would think that the Battle Wolf is not the strongest of the 8 kings. Which means i better be seeing an OVER 9000 joke coming in the future with the stronger kings =p
shits getting more and more exciting, i kinda of knew well before the Cooking Fest that Komatsu getting kidnapped would be the catalyst for Toriko entering Gourmet World seriously.

I pretty sure Midora didn't attempt to kill the Nitro. He just spooked it a little and it jumped through the gaps of the hungry space left from his fight with Ichi. Also the Disciples are stronger than 8 kings given what was said at the beginning of Midora vs Ichiryuu and I'm pretty sure that the Capture levels will vary from each member of each species of King just like any other.
Kind of a bit to announce the capture level of a king at this point as it kinda limits what the power scales can be imo.

a really long time ago the Derrous dragon ruled everything, then he died and his descendant now chills by the cure water as one of the 8 kings

Guess we have a lost in translation then.
Please cite your source for it.
Here are my source:
The wiki says that Derous is one of the 8 kings, not the ancestor of the 8 kings
Mangapanda/Mangareader translation stated that Derous is one fo the 8 kings, and what Midora went though is a descendant of it.
Unless you can provide a better translation from the raw, I dont see why you have come to that conclusion.

http://www.mangareader.net/toriko/256 saids all the 8 kings had ancesters who ruled the world, Midora fought one of the 8 kings who was a descendant of Derous who ruled the world with only one fang
so the Wiki is wrong, Derous was never one of the 8 kings his kids eventually became to be called one of the 8 kings, he was THE king and then he died, just like there was a time when the Battle wolf was THE king and they waned
although reading it again Midora may have fought a younger one
at any rate theres still the "final area" where "god" is so well definently reach over 9000 capture level

Thank you for citing.
After rereading that page, the wording somehow lead me to believe that the "8 Kings" refer to both the 8 strongest species and also the strongest individual of that species in certain era. 'King Dragon" might be one of the king specie, as like "Battle Wolf" and "King Snake" of Sunny most likely. Derous was the strongest ( or the only of his specie ? ), as such can be considered a King. His dragon descendant ( likely the only one/strongest too ) is also a King by consideration. The battle wolf just show in the last chapter is a Battle Wolf, but unlike Terry, he's probably the strongest of the specie in the Gourmet World, so is considered a King.
Just my 2c though.

Huh. I just noticed that the second most powerful beast shown in chp. 263, the capture level 4.2k Ashurasaurus is on Knocking Master Jirou's full course. I guess that really puts into perspective how absurdly strong Acacia's three disciples are.

I don't mind the chapter mostly explaining all about the horse king (which is an interesting story for me ). Hopefully whatever Komatsu is up to will work out and Mappy does not have to die
Also I'm not sure yet why the Nitro keep stealing the fruit. Do they need it for a Doomsday device? Do they need to prevent the birth of another Heracles as it would destroy way too much of the world? Are they simply evil? Or is it as simple as them wanting to eath Air themselves as they crave all the best ingredients?
so many questions, so excited for next week's chapter

So Toriko use to have black hair when he was really young.......i am so damn right from back in September:

So we have:
1. VERY similar hair style/overall appearance seen from a young Midora and Toriko
2. Scars from gourmet cells that were confirmed my Acacia to be GENETIC
3. Toriko use to have the SAME hair color that Midora does
Toriko is TOTALLY Midoras son. Which is probably why we never got to see the encounter Toriko and Midora had between the time skip.

Who is his mother then? Frohze? Frohze's daughter?

Holy shit, this manga is amazing O.o
I saw bits and scraps over the internet but dismissed it as stupid because of the food theme, but after reading ~20/30 chapters I got hooked and plowed through 286 in 2 days! This is now my 2nd favourite manga in weekly serialisation.
|
Toriko is pretty much 2nd after OP
|
|
|
Yeah, on Bleach's llevel of shortness.
|
Also I'm not sure how to feel about this power-up of Toriko. The blue Oni was capable of creating the Emperor ring with Heracle, and is fighting pretty even with it too. They were supposed to be the 8 strongest creature on earths, and are worthy opponent for the Acacia disciples.

same, but Heracles is at his weakest right now though and has been weakened by not getting to eat "air" in who knows how long so hes the weakest of the 8 king

I disagree. Most of the twists in Toriko were forseen several chapters b4 it actually happened.

THey dont make me think deus ex when they happen so if toriko does pull deus ex I'm fine with it
|
in what way do toriko compare to deus ex?
|
|
|
Oh shit.. This chapter was fucking amazing! Really excited. This manga and HxH
The Chapter!
|
and here I was thinking "well lets enjoy another episode of a light-hearted feast and people having fun"
SUPER excited for the next episode
+ Show Spoiler +and I sure do hope Komatsu is alright. Maybe the whole gourmet cell information thing was for us to understand why Komatsu gets gourmet cells now too in his system and how they randomly cure him from literally having his heart ripped out. Maybe he gets one of the appetites of Toriko, seeing as how he's got a spare one? :D
Since the shadow guy says "for a little while now", he probably does have a way to fix him up
I really love this manga
|
|
|
Froshze wants Komatsu for whatever reason so presumably reataching his heart wont be a super difficult task with the revive knife cut thing
probably thats the plan to force them to hand over Komatsu by saying only they can save him, but isnt that 0th biotope doctor guy nearby too?

wtf @ ending of latest chapter

This is like that time in Bleach where Ichigo just goes ham on the vice-captains, except here Toriko just doesn't give a fuck and murders everyone lol

I hope Toriko won't leave the others 3 behind in strength. I kind of liked that there were 4 characters which were around equal strength (though undoubtedly Toriko and Zebra were the strongest).

I think it was a momentary power up because of Komatsu being hit. I don't think the other 3 will lack behind, they all got their power up around the same time every time and now it's just because Toriko ate Air, but I'm pretty sure Zebra & co will also get their power up with God soon.
|
their devil reacted with Air too, we just haven't seen them go fighting yet.
But this having 2 gourmet cell devils in toriko, makes it seem like he's pulling ahead.
I don't mind thaaat much though
|
The manga is called Toriko
|
actually, I am somewhat disappointed that Toriko didn't pull ahead a long time ago. He did go through so much trouble with the food appreciation for a great powerup that in the end - did not power him up compared to the others who don't know this rare technique?

Ok
But ughhh I hate reading one chapter at a time
I haven't read this for like 9 months then caught up, and now I'm back to single updates
It just kinda flows much better if you get to read sections together
|
|
|
|
|
Oh Zebra what did you do this time?
I love this manga, it's my favourite by far. Always makes me smile, a storyline that makes sense (even if it is sometimes predictable), detailed drawings (take that Bleach) and huge scenery. New monsters, identifiable and good-looking fights. If only a new chapter was released every day :/
|
|
|
I think the plot goes too fast.. these power ups are kinda annoying if they start getting some every two chapters..
|
b..b..but the enemy power levels are going up too fast
They have to keep up hue
I wish there was more food D:
It's turning less and less about food sadly
|
It's extremely incongruent that Toriko is capable of destroying Shigematsu, Boneless etc while they fought on par with 0th biotope staff in more dangerous continents close to the respective food kings. Other than that I enjoy Toriko almost as much as One Piece. This is the true heir of DBZ
|
Wow how can people complain so much??
Toriko is in action mode almost non stop and it keeps getting interesting with lots of thing to reveal ..
It's always about food, like now they are trying to get another menu item from Acacia.. they simply don't have time to eat the monkeys they might kill and it ends with them falling to what seems a ancient city of the NITROS..
that's fucking amazing!
i'm with you Cloud..this is my number 2 after OP

shigematsu fought a weakened bald dude though and was more a sneak attack

wow great chapter this week!
we still know so litle about the Nitro
|
|
|
It is indeed a highly enjoyable manga compared to bleach and naruto. Also that must be the first female nitro that we see right? I like how the writer develops/expands everything in this manga with a reasonable amount of effort, nitros at the very beginning were so different from what we know now.
What part on monkey do you think that is the Pair lol

It must be a pair of "balls" lol
if you consider the chinese interest in the testicles of gorillas because they believe it "expands" the human longevity or something..
i think it might be it.. :D

appendix.
sound like a good soup ingredient

Might be that bambina needs some kind of condition to give birth like the horse, and its breast milk is pair

Shrug. When you've meticulously built a kingdom of perfect balance (based on oppression, but whatevs), why not relax and enjoy yourself. The actual governance of the continent is left up to the masters so I don't know what else a food king would be doing.

Honnestly I'm surprised there are still mountains left on the continent. After so many years you'd think he'd run out...
Another fun chapter but I got a bit confused with the Birth Tree/ Pair soup details.

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.

They just handled a 1.4k monkey instructor pretty easily so 2k sounds about right I think.

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?

Most likely because capture levels does not have a linar progrssion.
I.e. a capture level 20 monster is probably not twice as strong as a capture level 10 monster.
We also know that capture levels are not only dependant on strenght levels, as seen with the puffer whale and shining gourami fish.

Bambina doesn't strike me as having the longest attention span. He's probably really bored. This also gives an opportunity for Toriko and the others. They don't have to beat Bambina, only to entertain him enough.

The level of power being flung around has seriously gotten out of control after the human world got wrecked. Adapting their bodies to a high gravity environment is cool and all, but they're about to go toe to toe with someone that uses entire mountains as skipping stones (that he throws around the entire damn world).
At least the planet isn't set to explode in 5 minutes, though I wouldn't be surprised if something like that happens eventually given what we've been told about the planet's internal composition and why the human world is different from gourmet world.

There are two types of PAIR, the ones from the tree, and the real ones from the monkey king. Nitro does not know how to get the real PAIR. However, we have no clue as to what the normal PAIR taste's like or even if the Nitro want it.

im pretty sure they hang there balls on the world tree and thats whats gets harvested

Looked to me like Kaka was going into cryptobiosis, aka saying "screw this, I'm out"
|
Noo Kaka is going to do something that's going to piss toriko and the others off, that's a shady face no matter how you look at it.

probably going to do some major kaka

my guess is he will sacrifice his own heart for Komatsu, or at least use his own Enbu to help Komatsu. Then Komatsu will cook up some food, which will make the monkey king happy, he gives up his testicles and they eat them together :p (I still can't believe they are trying to eat the monkey kings testicles -.- )
to me Kaka looks really regretful towards the head of the train where Komatsu is at. And don't forget he still owes him big time.

I CAN'T WAIT FOR NEXT CHAPTER, THIS IS TOO MUCH, YOU CAN'T END A CHAPTER LIKE THAT, WITH NO EXPLANATIONS.
Shit. What were even kaka ambitions ?

she looked surprise so maybe that was her plan and was surprised it happened without her?
and what about the Sandoriko flower? it was supposed to be important but they basically havent used it at all, is its role now?

Maybe Kaka just wants to take the Air capsule made for Komatsu and bring it to the blue nitro? She was waiting for Pair too but once monkey king awoke she gave up hope on it and just tried to take Air and leave.

easier ways for her to get Air, and her backstory seemed legit
and if she knew the legit way for pair why not have the blue nitro do it themselves?

Kaka so scary :<, but a really awesome chapter It's really cool they don't have to kill / fight to the death the mnkey king to get his balls' sweat. They only have to challenge him to a dance off@
|
oh shit Kaka is evil?!?!?!?!?!
i guess with Pear a "failure" she planned to bring Komatsu to Joa? she was after him earlier and they may have another way to fix his heart
|
Damn, Kaka is scary. One thing to bear in mind is that they've only been referring to "that person", so it could be someone other than Kaka. Can't think of anyone who fits though.
And the expression they make during the achi muite hoi is pretty hilarious. And there's a nice nod towards Toriyama; one of the murals depicts the fusion dance from Dragon Ball Z.
|
I am honestly so pumped for next chapter. I thought Kaka was GOODD?!?!! Then he made that scary expression. I wonder if the blue ntiros will interfere with Pair...

Joa wanted Komatsu at one point, maybe thats why? Kaka's trying to kidnap Komatsu or get something from him without Toriko and co knowing?
|
http://www.mangapanda.com/toriko/315
+ Show Spoiler +The balls came off! Komatsu and presumably Bambina are there, but they are unaffected by the plants' poison? I was hoping that Komatsu had to fondle the balls or tickle them a special way to get them to fall off, and right after a slew of dirty jokes would ensue, but I guess this is fine too
|
what if Kaka had been planning for soemthing like this and the fake sandoriko would mingle with the real sandoriko to make people hallucinate good things? so Toriko sees Komatsu and monkey sees his mate and there all happy?
|
I wonder if Kaka will try to steal the balls next week... They arent just gonna get Pair that easily without a fight...

im still not 100% convinced Kaka is evil after this, im fairly certain that shes the reason Toriko and Bambina are hallucinating and seeing people that arent there and im pretty sure shes basically swooped in to save the day
of course my predictions have a 99% chance of being completely off

Lovely chapter. And yeah it a nice little save.
|
still no clarification of what happenned. Why pair dropped, and why komatsu and monkey girl images appeared.
|
One theory out there is that pair is an magical orb that let one see/interact with the underworld ( soul and stuff ), as the author said, it's "A drop of two sides of the same coin". Hence even in coma, Komatsu can help Toriko and female ex-Bambina can be seen by the Monkey King even though she's most likely dead by unknown cause.
Also Blue Nitro vs one of the 8 Kings, HYPE HYPE.
I don't think Kaka is going down so easily though ( even though I would love to see her get rekt ), as Blue Nitro was hyped to be even stronger than the 3 Acacia disciples.
|
I think Toriko & co. will help Bambina do the dance-off fight vs Kaka. Didn't they say Bambina is still a child even though he's one of the 8 kings? So his power might be immature and Kaka could win.

hes just immature in mind not body, hes supposed to be stronger then the horse king

Well next chapter, we will see the FIGHT!!! Wonder how it will go down. Will kaka destroy Bambina and Toriko and co save the day?

Komatsu might know the last pictoglyph of the dance. 1. He had the ancient book from the pyramid. 2. He has good sense for these kind of things
Also: is Kakaru dead? Probably not

re kaku I don't think so. I'm going to be disappointed if she's unhurt, but I don't think she is dead
|
so did kaka get ripperinos or....Kinda left wondering whats gonna happen. Will Toriko and Co eat Pair as well before shit gets rough, im gonna assume that the "organization" will make its appearance.
|
i bet shes injured, i hope power levels arent going to scale to the point where the eight kings become fodder, but im guessing she has to retreat for whatever reason
|
I really hope she's just dead, but given the nature of manga I expect the kings to become fodder at some point :\

Mountain of food.
Monkey King is just next-level in everything.
|
Monkey king is a friggin' romantic.
|
but the Monkey King actually saw his partner the same way Toriko saw Komatsu when Komatsu was about to die.
So maybe the partner of the Monkey King can be revived using Pair? It does have quite the power And then they feast together and laugh at Kaka
|
What if Kaka was the the monkey king's gf

Komatsu had the charm, had jsut recently died and only needed his heart replaced
i think pair is just an extreme cure water (when purely talking about healing properties) so someone who is truly dead cant be revived with pair, unlike Komatsu who was only mostly dead, youd need the hors to revive someone dead dead
Sandoriko flower is cured by eating it, and dodurian bombs smell disapears after eating it
i wonder if thats just coincidence

This manga just keeps getting more interesting. Kaka already back on his feet? And MK helping everybody by taking a shit.
|
so is Kaka not evil cause shes all grinning and shit and told those 3 to stand aside for just a moment
maybe she knew that they needed to push on alone and set herself up as the bad guy then got hit by the monkey king so she could disapear and help from the shadows?
as for the piece, maybe its from God?

Yeah Kaka was playing an interesting game. I don't think the piece could possibly be God as you can probably tell an ingredient as great as that from the smell.

I thought it was something from a new monster that's as dangerous as one of the eight kings. Basically saying I can kill/hurt one of them, fighting me is completely pointless.

well maybe not the true god, but some animal thats a main component like something greater then the 8 kings that is sleeping 99% of the time

This might be the real kaka because her clothes are still intact
|
The Blue Nitro that got blown away was the fake one. Now the real one, Chichi's friend shows up. That's my understanding from the chapter anyway.
|
That's one of two possibilities. I still think it's possible that it was the real Kaka all along.

the nitros know about everything and dont seem to be trying to stop it, rather there gathering influentiatial people probably by offering to take them with them
although since one of them is in the space bussiness maybe Neo gathered to figure out a way off planet before it kabooms
i dunno God and the eclipse are connected and you need nitro to get god so id say most likely the nitro are responsible for everything

I like how toriko, coco and sunny all go to the eight king territories respective to their animal partners. Also the whale king is the size of the goddamn moon, the eight kings are so absurd in the best way possible.

I'm confused to as what midora and jirou are up to. They obviously want to eat Acacias full course but at least midora seems to know about the true enemy and i imagine jirou does too but why aren't they doing anything? Jirou hasn't even partaken in the eating of any of the courses yet as far as we know.
They both are clearly in a calibar of their own now that ichiryu is gone so why aren't they attempting to do something about neo? I really want to know!!!

he and setsuna are probably doing special ops shit behind the scenes, trying to figure out where Joa is and the best places to strike while eating as much as they can in preparation
Midora is probably just waitng until they take the offense and then counterattack

Jirou probably ate most of acacia's full course ingredients way before toriko was even born, he's like 500 years old and visited the gourmet world frequently.

Ok new chapter (335) is pretty hype. We finally knows all the 8 kings and then some.
|
So the whale king is literally a moon with a tail and fins, that's interesting. Not that really hyped about sky deer since it's a bit similar to the horse king but still it's pretty cool. Dragon king's the only one that has yet to be oficially revealed.
Jesus what did acacia turn into anyway, that doesn't look very good.

Derous sure is fucking huge if those things below his body are mountains, it's weird because according to the wiki a derous dragon is only 350 meters long but his 1,5 million ton weight makes a lot more sense this way.

Midora always looks condescending.

Very unforgiving too, a single misstep could kill you or cost you the level but it made the game very challenging.

New chapter is out
+ Show Spoiler +Midora meet Joa for the 1st time. We see Acacia monster in action, a tiny part of it devour a 4K beast like a piece of cake. Jiro shows up. It seems like Blue Nitros are at the main dish/8 kings position in different areas also and might clash with our protagonists. Shit be cray yo
|
Neo henchmen were nothing in front of Midora, let's see what their boss can do.
|
It's getting really confusing
|
that is one impressive amount of reviving "life" balls hanging from the hair of Joa or whatever she/it is called in the translation you fancy :p
|
Chichi seems to have joined up with Jiro and Setsuno. Also I wonder how they will fight that ball since it's probably pure appetite.
|
Midora and jiro finally getting busy it seems.
|
New chapter
Well well well what do we have here.
Not since the Dragon vs Tiger that we have a fight of this magnitude.

New chapter (339)
SO HYPE
+ Show Spoiler +Acacia become sentient again and rekt a Blue Nitro like it's candy. Chichi suggests he might actively hunt the 8 Kings in each continent too. Rip Derous in area 1 we didn't even get to know you ;_;
Jiro will finally unlock his full strength.
Midora meets his maker.
Apparently the ruler of Blue Grill is the of the same specie as Ichiryu's gourmet demon, which could potentially be able to match Acacia. And here I thought Toriko's Blue is the strongest Demon we've known so far lol.
Could potentially see Minority World again. That was so hax it would be a wasted to never see that ability again,
I feel the manga is going pretty fast even by Toriko standard though.

shit this is getting really out of hand.. so many things going on at the same time!
shit got reaaaaaaaal

Wait what is happening? I'm so confused.
So... Acacia's demon wants to cook/eat the whole planet right? And blue nitro want him to get his ultimate super saiyan form and kick his ass in that from and lock him in some kind of vessel (somehow I don't think this will work)... but do they want world destruction/cooking the world too?
And Jirou... what does he want? He said he wants to kick Acacia's ass now b4 he goes all super saiyan, and he'll kick blue nitro asses as well?
And Toriko & co.? I'm pretty sure they don't want their planet eaten, so against both nitro and acacia?
And it seems Jirou's appetite demon is also very menacing and potentially ancient?
Feels like there are 3-4 parties involved with a little different agenda's. But it seems acacia is the big bad guy everyone wants to defeat.

Apparently Acacia isn't even the bad guy himself, he was just goated into being the vessel of resurrecting the demon, which first has to become full form before it can be destroyed once and for all. At least according to the Nitro Jirou is talking to.
But before the demon is fully resurrected, he is probably gonna eat the world, which some parties involved may have a problem with.
Since day 1 this manga has been my favourite delicious story, hardly anything you could call a filler arc, the story progresses fast enough you always smile when you think about the next chapter coming out.
|
Jirou is deadman walking with the fact that he intent to take on all the Blue Nitro and Acacia subsequently. If he succeed then the story goes nowhere. So he would likely fail & die somehow.
Which is a damn shame since I really like his character design. Badass mofo.

think i heard it is or is in danger of it

Anyone knows what's Toriko popularity among Shonen Jump atm?
I feel the author tried very hard to pick up the hype the last 5 chapters or so (since we switched away from Blue Grill) but it wasn't working; and he just fucked it and try to end thing as fast as possible so we can have an ending to the storyline before the Manga got shafted.
Which is a damn shame because there's still so many things to come like the Gourmet eclipse and the space arc. Lameee
Edit: just check, Toriko is hovering at the lower half of the middle pack of the weekly Jump popularity (7 or 8). Doesn't look too bad, not sure why the manga is in danger of getting cut :/

Toriko ending? why ?
It's one of the most dynamic, fun and original storys out there..
i hope it doesn't

In manga sales I don't think Toriko is selling, they didn't even make top 30 last year afaik.

Honestly Toriko is the manga i look forward to reading to most each week. If it truly is being forced to end quickly and the recent events aren't just going to be covered via flashback i might just stop reading.
We know Toriko has untold potential but watching him get truly destroyed by the Horse king with a little breath and then having bambina show himself capable of killing the 4hk several (maybe hundred or thousand) times over before they could react to then having toriko actually fight an 8 king honestly feels like too much, which i understand if he needs to cut a lot out.
Then the whole shit with Midora claiming toriko could actually hurt him (LMFAO). I honestly couldn't take it seriously.
I fully understand the hype behind Torikos individual powers but i don't think anyone can argue this is how it was meant to develop. If this manga is coming to an exceptionally quick end then that would be tragic as i feel this could be an incredible story but oh well .

it was the best when it was Toriko and Komatsu trying to find delicious food
then it got all serious with the apocolypse and the coming end of the world and the story just kept getting heavier and heavier and getting worse and worse
i feel like it lost what made it special and just had more plot piled on it without alot of sense

I disagree. While the pacing and certain choices the author has made are certainly criticizable, it was in fact the natural progression that is expected. What makes a story good is that they end or progress. You can't have one theme continuing on forever -however original and entertaining it is- as for every Forikorder who would want that, there would be 10 times more people thinking the storytelling has become stale.

I'm surprised that Toriko isn't doing well as I enjoy the manga quite a lot.
I guess it is difficult for any manga to have the "perfect" length or pacing given that different readers will have their own view on what is perfect.
For me at least, whilst I feel like the plot is being rushed now, at least the story is developing and I am hoping that the manga will end on a high. After the drawn-out end to Naruto (and let's not even talk about Bleach), it's not too bad if Toriko finishes with me wishing that it went on for a bit longer.

That's weird, Toriko is always at worst in the middle of the ranking in the WSJ, at best in the top5.
It's always ahead of Bleach or even World Trigger so I kinda fear for WT right now since I enjoy it too a lot.
|
I wonder if toriko would've been more popular if ufotable did the anime, their 1 episode ova is better than everything toei produced. Maybe with a better anime it would have had bigger sales.
Then again i heard the anime was pretty popular in japan so w/e.

you can have it progress and not have it be like it is now
theres no good fights because either A) all 4hk just gang rape the target or B) its something even all 4 of them cant touch and theres no good plots because it always Komatsu solving the problem though intuition
i would have preffered toriko and komatsu just leveling up by themselves and exploring the gourmet world on there own and they cant explore it cause the world ending in a month
the gourmet world got hyped SO much and now we got to see none of it

wtf is going on with don slime.. he talks about reviving ichiryu and then goes out and atacks NEO ?

Well, there is quite the time skip in between, if I understand correctly the time goes faster inside the shell or something like that (2 days = an hour in the outside world, so imagine how much time passed inside the shell when 3 weeks pased on the outside). So the cooking contest ended and don slime plans on reviving the old man. Which is probably gonna go like "hey ichiryu we'll revive you" - "no thanks now the next generation is responsible for the sake of the world I'm done here", at which point Don Slime is getting seriously pissed off. Or, even more likely, one of the appetite things that Neo send out landed where they prepared the cooking to revive Ichi and prevented it, so now Don Slime is out on revenge. Which I'm a bit sad about, because to me it would be much cooler if the only gourmet demon that was claimed to have a chance fighting Neo didn't get involved just to hype up the strength of Neo even more before Toriko steps in.
Also that research on the back channel is interesting

there probably gonna use the hors deuvres or whatever was the reviving one and don slime just went to tear some out of neo i guess
or stall for time?

I'm hyped for these flashbacks.
That present box in the previous chapter might have Ichi in it.

I'm pretty sure that's just another

"Komatsu reaches the center of area 6.
Next year, that darkness comes to light?!"
PLEASE tell me Toriko is not going on a break until next year and it is just a translation thing :/

This is so crazy i can't follow anything anymore.. but it's been a great ride..
so now we have:
another (blue nitro) + acacia + froz versus neo
everybody else versus neo
right? :D

So the Shounen mangaka have started writing weekly comments that Mangastream translates. And for the past 3 weeks, the author of Toriko has written the same thing: "The lock to my workplace broke. I can't work."
Dafuq?

And Komatsu managed to satisfy him for a meal too!
I can't wait to see Komatsu somehow come back from being eaten from God, he must make a return or it would be too sad.
