  1. Chapter Toriko 253 Discussion Thread

    There's one thing I'm confused about. Midora says that Frohze used "God Cooking" when cooking a really though ingredient. But "Good Cooking" is her Gourmet Cell mode, as stated by Setsuno, which she is able to use because she ate Acacia's Full Course. Yet they only just caught God, so how could...
  2. Chapter Toriko 253 Discussion Thread

    Re: Toriko 253 Spoiler Thread No, the journey Acacia was talking about was going around the world giving god to the world's leaders to end the war, which was the whole point of obtaining it. The farther place he was talking about is almost certainly where god is. The reason I think this is...
  3. Chapter Toriko 245 Discussion thread

    Re: Toriko 245 Spoiler thread I'm pretty sure that Joa meant Star had the potential to become the second strongest in bishokukai. Considering before he awoke his gourmet cells just now, he admitted it was a fight for his life with Toriko, there's no way the top members of the bishokukai are...
  4. Chapter Toriko 243 Discussion Thread

    Re: Toriko 243 Spoiler Thread Top to bottom, left to right: Takimaru Kousairou Yuu (glad he's still alive, hopefully we'll see more of him) Mansam Buranchi Aimaru Chin Kuriboh Grinpatch (what are you up to???) Rin Melk the Second Setsuno Zaus Zebra Match
  5. Chapter Toriko 242 Discussion Thread

    Joa is always referred to as "him", but Frohze is a girl. Does anyone know if this is just the translator's guess and the original japanese is ambiguous, or the original Japanese does indeed assert that Joa is a guy? Also, now that we know Joa can revive things, maybe he was the one to revive...
  6. Chapter Toriko 240 Discussion Thread

    Two things. Firstly, for those saying Komatsu is a bitch and should just kill Starjun, this is ridiculous. Even in the state he's in, Star could incinerate Komatsu in a second with a wave of his hand if he so much as made a move to attack. Komatsu had to make this deal. Also, this Toriko vs...
  7. Chapter Toriko 236 Discussion Thread

    Re: Toriko 236 Spoiler Chapter Mansam is going to lose. Shigematsu hasn't even released his full power yet (remember he has to remove those things on his face). The question is, will he die? Also, on page 9, it seems JoeJoe is talking to Joa, telling him that since both sides suffered such...
  8. Chapter Toriko 235 Discussion Thread

    While I feel like the last 3 chapters could have been done in 2, overall I don't mind the slower-pacing. This manga has been going balls to the wall fast for a while now, and so it's a good idea to slow down for the main character and the battle we've been looking forward to. Anyway, this...
  9. Chapter Toriko 234 Discussion Thread

    Re: Toriko 234 Spoiler Thread The reason Shima's not showing Star fighting is because this isn't the last fight between them, and he doesn't want to reveal his attacks. Even though Star is on the defensive right now, it's because he's not going all out - he hasn't even drawn his sword. So...
  10. Chapter Toriko 233 Discussion Thread

    This chapter wasn't that bad. We've had endless fighting recently, it was expected to have an emotional, intermission type chapter. It's not like Toriko can just wipe the floor with Star, this needs to be a very epic, dangerous fight for both parties. Anyway at least it wasn't autophagy, but we...
  11. Chapter Toriko 232 Discussion Thread

    Re: Toriko 232 Spoiler Thread Joa has some weird ability that gives people scars... this means that the person in the black cloak (who was also behind the four beast incident) who attacked Teppei was Joa as well. Also, the president knew about the person behind the Four Beast incident, so that...
  12. Chapter Toriko 230 Discussion Thread

    Re: Toriko 230 Spoiler Thread I really hope we get a Mansam vs. Shigematsu fight, and that wound he got just now doesn't do it for him. Also looks like Rin's fight was skipped over, a little dissapointing but at least she won so we know she can hold her own. Next week Zebra's fight will start...
  13. Chapter Toriko 229 Discussion Thread

    This was amazing as expected, I really like Elg's and Buranchi's abilities, especially Elg's is pretty creative and unique (which basically describes this entire manga). Although it does seem like literally ALL of his power comes from the horse part of his body (speed + regeneration), but that's...
  14. Spoiler Toriko 227 Discussion Thread

    Re: Toriko 227 Spoiler Thread There's so many epic events in this chapter, yet the thing I'm most excited for is seeing the Elg v. Buranchi fight. They're just both completely awesome characters. Also, they mentioned off hand that there are some Nitro outside the stadium. It sounds like the...
  15. Chapter Toriko 226 Discussion Thread

    That's actually why I love Tommyrod. No tricks or special powers (besides the bomb egg thing), just pure animal instinct, which really reflects his character. He's just a monster with teeth and claws and wings. It makes him both scary and awesome, and a good contrast to Sunny.
