Well, that was more of an initial impression, really. World of weird monsters and ridiculously strong "Hunters" running around and all that. Though it is sort of reminding me of early HXH still.

Also man this translation is so bad. Using pluralization and ignoring it arbitrarily, repeating the same thing between speech bubbles, mixing up words so you can only make sense of the sentence by unscrambling it, mixing up millipedes and centipedes (and other things, this is just the latest example), constant typos... Please tell me this isn't a constant thing. Reading two hundred chapters of this is going to melt my brain.

Manga itself seems great, though. Ten chapters in at this point.

Edit: Man, the monster levels inflated fast though. That huge crocodile was a 5 and built up as a big deal that the main guy might not be able to handle, and now there's already double-digits being thrown around.

No, it starts off shaky but a real translation group picked it up eventually.

I dont even understand how powerful people are supposed to be anymore. Just like an arc or two ago it took Toriko everything to do like a double 36 nail punch and now hes making suits of god drat armor out of hungry and literal knife laser beams made of hungry and like 70x nail punch over and over.

Pretty soon Toriko is gonna eat the whole world and we'll be like "that makes sense".

He also DEFINITELY gets more screentime than the others. The only time the other kings are even in the plot is when Toriko is also around, and Toriko has his own arcs with just Komatsu. I dont know how anyone could argue that the kings all get equal screentime.

Comparing Sani/Tommyrod(:smith:) with Babies used as food for what is essentially 'livestock' is well... :shrug:

Im just talking about the cannibalism. Eating animals that eat people is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay different that straight up eating people.

This is amazing. Absolutely goddamn amazing.

Also I love the old hermit nitro.

I love the idea of him just chillin' in his little hut while Zebra was blowing up everything around him.

Also, the Dragonball style marriage is great.

Lets get married.

The Nitro will cook Toriko his full course, which when eaten will give Toriko the memories of his lifetime.

I read it as Dapper Frog was real, got sucked up by illusion fog, and is now dead. Funny, floating, fat face dude isn't getting enough attention!

The real D. Frog wouldnt have let himself got hit with the laser, thats why Toriko brings it up.

I don't think anyone could predict AIR being a giant air filled fruit, so I doubt we'd be able to predict what PAIR is.

Especially when it was called AIR but wasnt fully prepared until all the air was removed :v:

Also, the other big bomb dropped in this chapter

Toriko accepted a job from Midora himself and for "AIR" no less. One of the worlds strongest beings, who has yet to experience Acacia's Salad.

The power creep on Midora is going to be terrifying


Midora is going to fight the final boss and get Worfed to show how cool Toriko has become.
