I'm getting sick of Toriko throwing all this exposition (using random terminology without giving us an explanation of what they mean) without tying it properly into the story. it's just a bunch of useless information that doesn't really add anything and it's so clunky and awkwardly delivered.
_Hmm, I see you had a battle with the Monkey King, you know we fought once!
Yes, I know that, also, damn those Monkeys who had originally drunk up all the pair. Also speaking of Kings, damn that Horse that I brought up for no real reason, that SCUM THAT CAME FROM THE EARTH whatever that means. HE SMELLS!
Well STRONG SCUM means STRONG TASTE! Also on a random tangent, so Pair had another cooking method?
Yes, it looked really good. RANDOM TANGENT, I am certain I heard voiced from the BACK (Back channel?) and so can that kid even though I have no way of knowing this seeing as I never met him conscious and got knocked the fuck out to this place before he recovered!_
Blegh.
Also, did Toriko really ally himself with Midoriya, the dude who as far as he knew was responsible for the death of his father figure, the dude who sent guys like Starjun and Tommyrod after him, the dude responsible for the massacres of countless Bishokuya by his agents under his orders, the dude who caused a MASSIVE GENOCIDE that killed countless people, displaced countless more and destroyed the economy and the world's ability to function as well as sending it into a famine the likes the world had never seen before…because it's what the old man would have wanted? Pffft.
