So there's those two monsters in the final spread, one of which we've seen before (when Ichiryu confronted Midora). I'm thinking they're probably scum beasts? Anyway, really excited for next week, though the Bishokukai probably won't arrive for a few chapters.

A scum beast that was in the front lines along with the elite ?
I don't think so.

I don't think so.
Though when Kuromado was informed of Ichiryu's approach, he ordered the scum beasts to be dispatched:

But I guess we'll find out soon enough. -
When I first started reading Toriko I expected Komatsu to just become a mere background character or a goofy sidekick used solely for comic relief, so I couldn't help but smile when I got to the panel where he got surrounded by a crowd of people wishing him good luck.
Anyway, I'm really looking forward to Chiyo vs Setsuno and Zebra finally getting a chance to fight one of the Bishokukai.

Prettygood chapter. Sani hair locking the fans was pretty great lol.

This post is deleted!

Nice chapter. Nice to see Joe Joe again.
-
so much bild up for the war
-
Super amazing transition chapter! I love the exaggerations in it and the last Bishokukai based panels. If I'm correct Limon should be 2.17 m for 275 kg:wassat: But she seems quite smaller than Starjun (2.32 m) and Grinpatch (2.40 m).
I can't wait to see that damn "Cooking King" Zaus and the world number 3! I wanna see all those high rank chefs fighting! -
Iron Chef Toriko?
Of course, since it's Toriko, "Iron" doesn't cut it. It has to be "Diamond Chef", or "Star Diamond Chef", or "Celestial Chef"… Celestial is over the top, even for Toriko.
But that last page got me thinking, "I'm gonna be the King of the Pirates!"
-
The Mask still lives!
-
Whoa whoa whoa!!! Tommyrod is alive? How?
-
^Eh? Did you think he was dead all this time?
That last spread screams awesome in several different pitches. I'm earnestly looking forward to seeing Limon in action.
-
@Area51: Limon seems to be about 6 heads tall, maybe a bit more like 6 1/2. Normally an adult person is 7 1/2 to 8 heads tall, so she´s actually shorter than average. She´s prolly around 1,65 m tall
But she's still considerably taller than Chiyo who is, more or less, 1.50 m. I don't know how reliable is the Toriko wiki, I took the data about Limon from it so I think the perspective of the last panel is tricky.
About Tommyrod, as you just said, he was fully healed and already stronger than before on chapter 156.
But I think of the other pair of arms of Grinpatch and the level of his cells. If the recovery of Toriko's arm was much faster than average and his cells were considered at really high level, how stronger could be Grinpatch's? WOW! -
The toriko wiki is not very accurate. They actually think Limon has a claw instead on an arm…
Also Chiyo is quite small, I doubt she gets to 1,50. Data about her (like the height) hasn´t been released yet.
Grinpatch was GW material way before Toriko was even able to adapt to extreme climates, so I´m guessing that just like Staajyun, they have still quite an advantage over him.
-
Zonge on the "Famous bishokuya" panel was the best of the chapter along with 6-arms Grinpatch, and Sani/Coco were pretty funny too.
This fest is gonna be crazy. -

Grinpatch is the 'SUPER' Franky and Chiyo is chopper. Tommyrod is Zoro.
-
! What the heck is wrong with Grinpatch? My mind was already blown about why he had 4 arms, now, he grew 2 more!? lolz… I love that bitch.
-
You must love Alfaro then :)
-
For some reason Grinpatch on the last panel reminds me of Jesus Burgess when the BB pirates were introduced in a similar spread panel back in Mock Town. Now he says HYAAAA instead of WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Honestly, I'm not sure what these handful of Bishokukai want to accomplish by going there. Their big shots won't come to the Festival, and there will be plenty of stong people there including the Gourmet Knight elites, Saiseiyas, Bishokuyas (including Zonge, lol), the 4 kings, people like Setsuno and I'm pretty sure Zaus and the other ranked chefs are no weaklings either. We'll see tho. -

Don't forget Kousairou from 0th Biotope who seems to be stronger than anyone else you named.
-
I'm pretty sure Kousairou is the traitor Ichiryuu was talking about.
I guess he's gonna send Kuribou to protect the festival from the Bishokukai and Kousairou.

so much build up for the war
I really hope we get a FEW chapters of cooking before we launch into the war. Shima tends to get ahead of himself a lot of the time and I want to see some Iron Chef style food battles and amazing cooking techniques.
Also the numbers in this chapter were just ridiculous. 36 billion visitors every year to an island? And one billion people are on it right now? Yet 99% watch it on TV? And somehow they made a stadium that seats 100 million people!? That's more than most countries…

It must realy suck to have to run at the same time as the fest. I honestly would want to know what else is on, just out of morbid curiosity :P

Gay porn, since that's the most important thing in the Torikoverse after food.
-

It would have to be a stadium about 667 times bigger than the biggest real stadium on Earth
-
One of the saiseiya seen in this chapter (the one with that "pompadour" hairstyle) was already introduced on chapter 201. He was one of the fellows of Teppei.
-
How the fuck do you guys remember everyone's name LOL I have massive problems with that coz it's been so long and sometimes they appeared only on one page…
-
If Shima plays his cards right, this should be a very very very good arc.
Think about it: Iron chef competition at first, Bishokukai crash the party and start kidnapping top rank chefs en masse, Bishokuyas step up to the plate and do battle!
And we may even see some real powers from the supporting characters this time around.
Shima, you better deliver!

Don´t trust the wikia, where would they even get this sort of data even before she´s confirmed to be Limon? (no matter how obvious it is)
And she´s definitely shorter than 1,65, I can tell you that.Data like bday, height and weight, along with vision, blood type and zodiac always come once a new volume is released.
-
I thought of something: I imagine Zaus, other than cooking, is a fighter at least as skilled as Setsuno (I imagine he's even stronger because he could be younger), so you could say for the number 3, for Damala Sky XIII and for Yuda (this one said that the Four Beast was a minor problem for himself). Ok…If these chefs are in combo with someone stronger than them (like Jirou for Setsuno, as an example), how could the Bishokukai have even only one chance to kidnap one of them?
Don't forget there are even Kousairou, the Four Heavenly Kings, the Gourmet Knights, a lot of famous Bishokukai and Saiseiya. -
Just don't forget that the antagonists' powers in Toriko progress nearly as fast as the protagonists' for now.
-

Yeah, I know. But the chefs of the TOP 10 could be theirself far stronger than Toriko and company (I mean, everyone in TOP 10 could have been Gourmet World material for years before the manga storyline begins), and they could be in combos with much stronger bishokuyas too.
I clearly remember Setsuno effortlessly overpowered Alfaro (probably - much - stronger than Tommyrod), one of the higher rank members of the Bishokukai, without moving a finger. -
maybe there are more of them among the crowd, just like we suspect Kousairou might be on their side, there could be allies of them in other groups, like saiseiyas (for example Kaitora, but he´s a personal saiseiya so I dont know if the others know him), and even (tho I really doubt it) gourmet knights.
-
Hey guys, take a good look at this.
http://img.batoto.net/comics/2011/10/10/t/read4e92b9452e09d/15.jpg
It's Sakura, member of the 0th Biotope, and some of the guys that appeared in the most recent chapter. The info is given by Grinpatch during the BB Corn arc.
-
Yeah, some of us noticed it as well. Nice find (:
I´m leaving a Toriko bday list in case someone is interested (like the fans who do artworks for the bdays of their fave characters ^u^)
1.1 Ichiryuu
2.2 Jirou
2.9 Zebra
2.29 Guemon
3.3 Aimaru
3.8 Takimaru
3.18 Bogeyuz
3.31 Komatsu
4.97 Match
4.29 Barrygamon
5.25 Toriko
6.3 Cedre
6.18 Teppei
7.8 Zombie
7.11 Love
8.8 Mansam
9.7 Sunny
9.29 Coco
10.28 Livebearer
11.16 Melk 1
12.8 Yosaku
12.20 Rin
12.24 SetsunoWe need confirmation, but Midora´s definitely would be March 3 (3.3), since the three brothers Ichiryuu (first dragon), Jirou (second wolf) and Midora (third tiger) would then have their bdays with their respective number on both day and month.
-
A question for all you guys: how do you view the power level of Livebearer? It's implied he's really strong, since the Bishokukai include him in the difficult capture chefs's list, and we know he could take down over Capture Level 80 beasts (Wisdom Panda). But I remember him being knockd out by Coco in a blink of an eye. So, what do you think about?

He's like a special preparation dish. Super tough usually. Super weak against Coco.:ninja:

He's a Grass Type. Weak against Fire, Ice, Poison, Flying, and Bug Types.

Actually, I think he's a grass/rock hybrid…

I think that Limon is the weird antelope guy, and that this is Elg. She sure doesn't look like a somelier.
-
Elg is the antelope centaur guy.
Not sure how a sommelier is supossed to look.
-

True. But has the antelope guy been confirmed to be Elg? Elg is the 1st branch chief after all, and has been kept a mystery since the beginning of the series. While Limon is a somelier (a wine steward) and seems to be more along the line of Alfaro (a waiter), both of whom are less human in appearance, and none of the branch chiefs look THAT inhumn. No, it makes more sense for the girl to be Elg.
-
But has the antelope guy been confirmed to be Elg?
Yes, it has. Also we've seen Limon's back before when she was mentioned in passing, and she had long hair then too. I don't know what chapters either of these were in, but I guarantee Elg is the centaur and the woman is (probably) Limon.
-
To be fair the only indication we have is the presentation order along with the picture.
http://www.batoto.net/read/_/38955/toriko_ch101_by_hi-wa-mata-noboru/3This is only an assumption based on the naming order and the perspective as a logic, but in reality there has been no confirmation whether Elg and Limon are respectively the centaur and the woman or vice versa.
Also you guys are assuming waaaay too much lately (the Joa thing still has no solid proof and the majority here talks as if it's him already).
-
! Bunch of chefs were introduced in this chapter, but the most interesting thing is that Setsuno is a 29 times title holder while Zaus is "only" 14. Yuda held it twice, so that leaves 5 for 2 people. Also Livebearer is 17th and Chiru is 15th, nice.
-
So many new characters!!
Break next week ;_____;

To me another factor is that on 171 Elg was standing alongside Yuu and Jerryboy. The three of them are branch chiefs. Hope you find this a valid argument. I honestly can´t imagine him being Limon the sommelier.

! Huh. So Kahn is here now ?
Oh and could someone please explain the thing with the Kahn/Robo engine to me ? If he wasn't physicaly at his palace but just used a robot/thing, then how would he "leave" by turning it off ?
