! Re: Toriko 241 Spoiler Thread
Hi guys, I am new here. I just decided to post a brief summary of this chapter.
! Joa and Teppei approaches the stadium in Setsuno, Zaus, Kuriboh, Kousairou, Zebra, Sunny, Mansam, Buranchi, and Aimaru's amazement. Joa says something like "life force" is "deliciousness" and how "taste" is "thinking". Joa looks at the stadium as if he is looking in a radar. There are many dots on the radar varying in size. He states that there are many delicious things in the stadium, but the taste is not enough. He wants to "cook" those "delicious things"….just like what he did to Teppei. It is revealed that the black disc is called "transparent shadow" and has a capture level of 295. Colonel Mokkoi and Darnil Kahn knew that Joa has arrived, they wonder about why he has came. Three members of G7 approaches and states that it is because Joa wants to say good bye to the human world. Ume is suprised by the G7's betrayal. Joa sets foot on the stadium as the black disc disappears into the ground. The Saiseiyas are suprised by Teppei's arrival. Zebra states that he heard everything. He calls Joa and Teppei bastards. Zebra attacks Teppei but his attacks are blocked by a tree. Roots start to surround Zebra. Joa said that he has cooked Teppei. Nitros attack Joa. Joa takes out a knife and attacks the Nitros. He says that this type of Nitro is very easy to cook. Setsuno is enraged. Setsuno asks about the knife. Joa tells Setsuno to stop asking; he claims that the knife is his. Setsuno reveals that the knife belonged to the chef god Frozhe.
! *the girl/guy on the last page is not Joa.

! There are good ways to kill off characters. I'm not sure this is one of em. Teppei's death did have some excellent shock value though.
! My theory is that Joa has supreme mastery of the revitalizing knife and can revitalize (clone or make a zombie clone of) a person from a little bit of flesh the size of the Zaus or Teppei's scar.
! Otherwise undead Teppei somehow made it all the way from the country of life without anyone noticing.
! EDIT: So that is Frozhe? I wonder if it uses "god" and not "goddess".

! Wow, young Frohze looks completely different to what I imagined (I was expecting long, lighter hair). But my Toriko Bros and I did debate its gender
! It gives me a strong vibe of a character from another manga, but I can´t pinpoint it

! WOMAN
! just have to look well the last page and you'll find it

[Sâuza]

! Frohze looks gay lol.

[CaptainAppleJack]

! So what, if Acacia and Frohze actually were a couple with Ichiryuu, Midora and Jirou being their children? Would explain how Ichiryuu called Midora "brother".

@FKM: I know. I just commented on how my friends and I never were sure it was a he. And we were right on doubting it.

Chapter's out: http://www.batoto.net/read/_/181770/toriko_ch241_by_hi-wa-mata-noboru/1
TEPPEI NO. I'm not sure whether he's only being mind-controlled or dead-eaten-revitalized-zombified now.We'll see in good time.
But Joa's knife scarred the Nitros right? So maybe the knife really does brainwash people.
And Frohze, haha whut. I never thought you were a girl. Strangely drawn, for sure. (that's Shima for you) But see me dabble in Photoshop:

!
I think she's kinda cute. (well i tend to prettify everyone so)
Great chapter.

Great chapter.

! I definitely wouldn't call her ugly

[Hisoga]

wow.. Joa power is really interesting..
and wow

! Frohze-sama is a woman.. :blink:

[Nekketsu]

! So Setsuno is in the Stadium, Jirou is coming and Teppei is also already there.
! I'm anticipating an incoming tragedy. As Joa said, Teppei no longer is the man they knew, he was killed and zombified, and I'm afraid nothing can be done but for someone to give his soul rest.

[projectelf]

Funny how Setsuno didn't care about Teppei being zombified but freaked out when she saw Frohze's knife.

[Cutty Fram]

looks like they made Zebra angry. poor Teppei

[Devil G.]

@projectelf:

Hahaha true. Well at least I'm sure Jirou will be really pissed off. And I certainly didn't think we would see Frohze's design like this, neither I expected her to be a woman

[chopper666]

Great chapter of toriko this week. Joa really shook me up with his knife and powers. The tokage lizard was reaaly koo. Finally somebody put a zipper on zebra mouth hahahaha.great chapter jirou vs joa coming up.

[Louis-1988]

Why do people keep saying Teppei was killed?

[KageKageKing]

Joa is Moria.:ninja:

[The Laughing Man]

16 characters of Joa is a woman.

[phoenix_fire]

@Louis-1988:

Why do people keep saying Teppei was killed?

Because normally someone, whose severed head got served on a platter to a guy with very … questionable cooking methods/ ingredients, is not supposed to walk around completly unfazed afterwards.

@phoenix_fire:

I see someone doesn't pay very close attention to the manga.

Now, I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, so please do correct me if I'm wrong but… He looks pretty alive to me, and well enough to hold a conversation on top of that.

[Nekketsu]

Then explain the carred corpse of Zaus we saw in an earlier chapter.

[Louis-1988]

^ Starjun is quite obviously with NEO. Unless you truly believe that Star is stupid enough to think his shitty basic Camp Fire attack that couldn't singe Toriko's chest hairs could kill the worlds #1 Chef. He was obviously covering for Zaus, giving him an out to go meet up with other NEO members without rousing suspicion. What does that have to do with Teppei though?

[Strawhat Chan]

Those past two chapters felt super-fast paced to me. Even moreso than Bleach does usually.

[melody of dead.deanders]

i knew it that G7 well some members would be traitors.. and it would obviously be those three since they were last shown and they needed to make an impact..

[Zp1]

Teppei's usage plot wise seems straightforward. Him being brainwashed into NEO makes him the perfect actor to inform Toriko & co about what NEO is and what they're doing. There'll probably be a scene with Teppei and the 4 kings after the arc. Jirou showing up all but assures that he'll use some technique that reverses whatever Joa did to Teppei.

Trying to avoid back tracking through this thread since I haven't read this weeks chapter yet, but in regards to the Anime, what were everyones thoughts on Episode 112 last weekend?

Really nice filler if you ask me!! Do we know whether Shima was involved in any of there plot developments. It seems to tie in nicely to the story and great to see Yuu getting some more screen time!!

I enjoyed the episode, seeing Yuu and Alfaro was a nice surprise. The episode(and the next couple as well) are tie-ins to the movie that releases on the 27th.

[Skadi]

It was nice that they used the chance to let the fans know what are Yuu´s branch duties. Since that info wasn´t in the manga, but on the hunting book.

[choperman]

okay so I can't figure out one of the people on the IGO side cover

obviously we have
Toriko
Sani
Coco
Zebra
Melk II
Brunch
Match
Setsuno
Aimaru
Takimaru
Mansam

but I can't figure out the last guy!!

the one right above setsuno

It's either Rin or Chiru, but probably Rin.

[Area51]

Above Setsuno I see Rin.

[Nekketsu]

I checked back to make sure the scar thing wasn't just my imagination.

!

And it certainly isn't. The scar is larger after his head is placed in the food platter. And in the latest chapter Joa said that he "cooked" him. Good lord, he's really an undead now.

[JarmenKell]

It's still possible that revived Teppei is a clone, so the actual character is not dead.

Most likely the zombie is the original.

Oh boy that Yuda is CREEPY.

@Skadi:

Yup so much this.
I like today chapter.

Thanks for the reminder Louis, I almost forgot about the film. Still need to see DB Battle of the Gods.

Is the Toriko film already out?

[Louis-1988]

^ No problem, and no, the Toriko film won't be in theatres until the 27th.

[Lazy Ass Justice]

I still can't find Zebra on that volume cover. I'm inclined to say that it's the reddish one on the top-most right, but…​Where the fuck is his nose?

[Skadi]

Yeah, he is the reddish one on the top right corner. And we can´t see the complete face of most f the characters

[Manix21]

Here's my theory. Joa is the legitimate, biological child of Frohze and Acacia. Imagine a child of two legendary figures, especially a legendary chef in a world where cooking is practically on top of government. Joa was expected by everyone to be the successor to his/her parents, Joa became a highly skilled chef and perhaps, bishokuya, but never the best, she/he had to cheat to win Cooking fest, and lost to Setsuno in truth). instead these three "adopted" children, Ichiryu, Midora and Jirou, (not to mention Setsuno, who could possibly be Frohze apprentice) rise through the ranks to a place of greatness in the world, a place Joa saw as his/her own. So she/he takes her/his mother's knife, and sets out for revenge.
What are the things that are most important to the apprentices?
Ichiryu-His company and the stability of the world.
Midora-god
Jirou-His grandson.

All things Joa has struck directly against. Using Cinderella to turn so much of the IGO against the president, using those same people to claim god and cause chaos, and, of course, we've all seen Teppei. I think Joa is out for some bizzare form of revenge.

[Skadi]

I like this theory a lot, do you mind if I share it on tumblr?

[Manix21]

@Skadi:

I like this theory a lot, do you mind if I share it on tumblr?

Sure. Go right ahead.

[Area51]

Will the chapter go out this week? I don't remember anything about a break.

[Skadi]

There is no break. We should have spoilers any minute now. Here´s 4:45 am and I intend to stay until 6 am or until the spoilers appear.

[Mortea]

So is this woman personification of Cinderella or is it Frohze? Or is this Frozhe's intimidation? If this is Frohze, then that long hair - is it headgear?

[redon]

New book about Toriko announced. Could someone translate the information of that picture, please?
