Announcer: ...There it is, the exploding cherry!!
A hit on the super special preparation ingredient the "Nitro Cherry"!!! [quote in white.]
Title: Gourmet 168 Coco's Aim!!
Coco: We need to eat this or...
Komatsu: We can't win...
Side: If the line between life and death lies in front of a delicacy, then bet your life to eat across it------!!
Live: HM~~~~~ could it be you plan to eat it?
Caaaaaaan you eat iiiiit?
Announcer: The time limite to eat it completely is
"10 minutes"!!
Sign: Kitchen
SFX: KOPO KOPO
Coco: Understand, Komatsu-kun?

Page 4:
Coco: The stable temperature for the Nitro Cherry is 6 °C.
While maintaining that temperature you need to detach the layers through the boundary points.
I'm quite sure that was the way to cook the Nitro Cherry.
And during that time, you mustn't apply even a small shock to it...
Komatsu: It... It's impossible...
There isn't nearly enough time!!
Announcer: Remaining time to eat completely is 30 seconds!!
Komatsu: I can't...
Coco-san... We'll have to take a give-up here after all...
Coco: Not being able to disarm the explosion in time is within my assumptions...
What Komatsu-kun needs to do is...
Toriko: Out of the way, Komatsu!
Komatsu: !!
To... Toriko-san...
Announcer: 10 seconds remain!!
Toriko: It's just about meal time.
Announcer: 5 seconds!!
Toriko: Itadakimaaasu!
Announcer: 1 second!!
SGX: GOKU (Gulp)

Be sure to thoroughly savor it, Toriko...

Page 7:
SFX: HAAA HAAA
Toriko: Livebearer...
Live: !
Toriko: There are no hits or misses with ingredients...
Without exception, every one of them is a blessing from nature...!!
Narration: The organs...
that had been destroyed by the explosion...
SFX: ZAH
SFX: GUAH
Toriko: For me...
all ingredients are hits!!
Narration: At a miraculous speed, the gourmet cells which had absorbed the "deliciously cooked" Nitro Cherry attempted to regenerate.
Komatsu: Okay!!
We need to hurry...!!

Page 8:
Live: MUNI~~~~ They're all hits? Oh, what a worrisome statement!
Maybe all the ingredients I've every eaten were misses?!
In that case I'm really looking forward to Toriko's memories~~~
Just as I thought...
SFX: JYURU
Live: HAAAA You alone is plentyyy
SFX: BOTA BOTA
Coco: The "Nitro Cherry" is a "Joker Ingredient"... ["Joker Ingredient" in white]
I'm calling for a trade.
Live: !
Yes.
Of course.
HAH
HAH
Coco: I'll take the "Numblemon" from you. [quote in bold.]
And we'll submit from our side...
The "Wisdom Panda". [quote in white.]

Page 9:
Announcement: Aaah, astounding! Team Coco Toriko Komatsu [First sentence big/bold.]
Live: Ooh.
Announcement: The trade is the "Numblemon" for 200 points and presenting the "Wisdom Panda" for 250 points!!
Once again, he doesn't pick a 10-point junk card, he submitted a high-point valued ingredient-----!!
Match: Coco...
If he finishes eating that...
it'll be impossible to stage a comeback.
Coco: .........
Live: You rea~~~~lly wanna make me do a give-up, don't you~~?
I've read you...
SFX: HICC
Live: I know what ingredient...
you want to make me eat in the end...
Idiot.
Do you think
that I can't beat the Wisdom Panda?
SFX: GOGOGO

Page 10:
Live: But I don' need it!
It'd be a pain in the ass!
Announcer: AAAAAAH, and here Livebearer passes on the "Wisdom Panda"!!
It's the first give-up of the game!!
Scores: Coco Toriko Komatsu
Livebearer
Live: Uhuhu.
Announcer: The 250 points instead go to Team Coco Toriko Komatsu, and furthermore...
Toriko!! He finishes the "Numblemon" even with his heavily damaged body!!
Plus 200 points for them!!
Incredibly, they've successfully staged a turnabout!!
Scores: Coco Toriko Komatsu
Livebearer
Komatsu: Toriko-san, are you okay!?
Toriko: Komatsu...
When I have food on my plate
I don't leave any left even if it kills me!
HAAAA
HAAAA

Page 11:
Toriko: But... This ingredient...
And Komatsu's cooking...
Match: No way, for there to be a turnabout here...
Coco... did you predict that he would pass?
B...
But...
Announcer: Because Team Coco Toriko Komatsu have had 3 consecutive hits and eating completions,
the turn switches to Livebearer!!
Live: For this game...
This is the first time I've had this much fun.
And...
Number 5.
That's the whole ball game.
Number 31.
Announcer: There it iiis! He gets a hit on the "Electric Banana" for 180 points----!!
Because Livebearer has given up, if he can't eat this he loses!!
Match: A narcotic ingredient...
Could it be...
he'll eat it?!
Live: Uhi
UHIHIHIHI

Page 12:
Live: YOU FUCKING IDIOTS!!!

Coco: There are still cards remaining...

Match: Coco...

Coco: It's your turn to draw.
So hurry and pick your cards.
Live: So he's saying...
he can still find a way to win in the remaining cards...?
But to begin with...

Page 14:
Live: You guys were fucked in the first plaaaace!
Number 21
Number 27
Announcer: It's an out. The turn switches!!
Live: I don't need any ingredients anymoooore!!
I'll give all the ones leeeeeft!
If you can eat them,
that is. [Heart]
HEAHHYAHHYAH!
HYAHHYAH!
SFX: HYAH HYAH
Coco: ............
I'm truly...
SFX: HYAH HYAH HYAH HYAH
Coco: glad...
You're acting just as I predicted...
Match: !
Coco: Toriko!! Komatsu-kun!!
This is the final sprint!! Please eat all of it!!
Toriko: Right!!
Komatsu: Leave it to us!!

Page 15:
Announcement: Team Toriko Coco Komatsu eats the 50 point "Rock Lizard" completely!!
And the 10 point "Sea Urchin Rat" completely!!
And the "Caesar Snake" completely for 10 points!!
Scores: Coco Toriko Komatsu
Livebearer
Toriko: Ooh... This is...
My... My wounds are...
Announcer: With 3 consecutive hits and complete eating completions,
and with 1 card type remaining.
the turn switches to Livebearer!!
Live: I knew it~~~ [Heart]
And that iiis...
The big-miss card that you guys wanted me to make me eat so so much...
The "Poison Potato". [quote in white]
It's true that it's the worst of the miss cards.
Normally here I'd have to give up and it'd be the end of the match. Is that what you envisioned?
Coco: ..........
But I've got some bad news for you.
The reason you guys were fucked from the beginning is...

Page 16:
Live: There isn't a single ingredient in this Gourmet Casino
that I can't eat.
Any kind of special preparation ingredient,
any kind of wild beast,
I have the ways to capture and cook them right here in my head.
So do you get it?
From the beginning
you've been fighting a losing battle.
Match: We're beat----
That abomination...
Live: So, Coco...
your cool judgement, Toriko's frightening appetite...
Coco: ......
Live: and...
that chef's exceptional talent,
despite being my enemies, you all played admirably.

Page 17:
SFX: DARA
Live: Rest easy.
SFX: DARAAAA BOTA BOTA (Dripping)
Live: Even if your brains are emptied
it's not like you'll die or anything.
In fact, just imagining someone like Toriko-chan with an empty head is so cute.
Enough for me to want to let him form a combo with me.
Toriko: ..........
Live: This is bliss----
Memories are "life" itself.
To have your memories erased
is equivalent to that person's life being taken...
This is true victory...!
And for me, that is
the ultimate pleasure----!!
SFX: HAHAHAHAHAHA
Coco: I knew that.

Page 18:
Coco: The fact that you could eat all of the ingredients,
I knew it from the beginning.
Live: !
Hm?
Coco: Yes.
Someone who cheats so calmly...
would never purposefully put ingredients into the game that you couldn't eat.
Live: .........You knew...
and you're saying you thought you had a chance of winning?
Coco: The ways to cook special ingredients...
Were things you had taken from other people's minds, after all...
Even if how to eat them are in your memories...
the order you would eat the ingredients today would not be in your memories... ["order" in italics.]

Page 19:
Live: Hmm~~?
The order...
I ate them?
----------!!
Coco: You knew the way to eat it, right?
So why don't you hurry up and eat it...
The final ingredient...
However...
it'll be the last one you eat in your life...
Live: Y...
You can't mean...
This guy... From the beginning, it was this...!?
He was aiming for the worst "combination of foods" [quote in white]
to go with the Poison Potato-----!!?
Aide: With an underhanded trick, a return check!!
Bottom: Toriko
...Gourmet 168
/ End
Next issue, the big conclusion to Gourmet Tasting!!
And what about the "Meteor Garlic"......!?
