I'll agree with you. The paint job is a real let down. Hence why I put off getting him for so long.
Looks like they rushed the hair. Could have been so much better, but it's just been done as one big clump. with very few strands. Like Skadi said, the colors all off as well.
You can tell why people didn't spend 6,500 yen on him. And now all 5 are selling together for the price Starjun was advertised for. You can see why they dropped the line….........

Starry's going to get eaten up by Toriko's mighty Appetite!! You know it!!
Then we can get to the good stuff!! Coco Vs Grinpatch battling it out at the entrance to the Gourmet world!!

! Pretty much what kanji_xiii said. The chapter is completely Toriko vs Starjun. The ending has Toriko mentioning those pre-shot routines again, and it seems to be gearing up with Starjun scared because Toriko seems to be unleashing his final attack. It's not said what it is, but the set up is Starjun on a plate like how the Four Beast was served up before unleashing Pac Man, so Toriko's probably going to send out his own version of the attack.
! And I know that Toriko has mentioned the pre shot routines multiple times before, but once again that seems like a scene that probably should've been fleshed out or not just shown right before Toriko is about to bust it out in battle.
! It could also be the page of just Toriko's face, but c'mon. Nothing happened this chapter. This is the boring fight sequences that people were complaining about in the Four Beast Arc Shima. People like back and forth, not just one upping another character with moves and having one character attack while the other just defends/is afraid/dodgesAnd a link to chinese scanshttp://www.ishuhui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=24477&extra=page%3D1

Wish shimabu used a page or two to show how the other fights are developing. Who knows how long will be this one
-
! Excuse guys…where do you see Starjun intimidated? Ok, Toriko is freaking scary and Starjun "sees" how bad he could finish if he was unaware of the danger. But, hey, do you really believe Toriko is going to win this easy? With Starjun having showed us nothing at all? Naaaah, come on. Starjun didn't couterattack yet, for real. Shima cannot waste Starjun like this.
Also, don't forget, Komatsu is there. If Toriko was going to eat Starjun, be sure Komatsu would interfere and stop his combo partner. -
! @Area51: Yeah, to kick him in the balls for all the shit he did to them
Komatsu: Ok I´m done go ahead -

Am I the only one thinking that was a quick read? Is there less pages or something?
Anyways, an okay chapter. Didn't see too much of a beat down but hey, don't wanna be all nitpicky. -
I thought the art was quite immersive in this chapter. And it felt short 'cause there were loads'a spreads and full pages of faces.

Toriko is not going to have a very good meal with Starjun on his plate. It'd mostly be silky human hair. I'd cut that shit off like a strawberry's stem before I ate a Starjun.

Guys, we didn't see any attack from Starjun. It's too early for something bad to happen to Star. Moreover, he's not giving all he got. Now Toriko was able to throw at him only 2 (potentially) fatal attacks. And now the supreme routine. Ok, cool and scary. But Starjun is only guarding. What will happen if he decides to attack seriously?
Again, I think in the end Toriko would be losing and Komatsu kidnapped but Joa's arrivale will cause a huge turmoil and things will change. -

Again, I think in the end Toriko would be losing and Komatsu kidnapped but Joa's arrivale will cause a huge turmoil and things will change.I think no one here believes Toriko has any chance to defeat Starjun. Moreover, we already know how will this fare. Toriko sends his best and deadliest combo, Starjun receives some damage and finally gets serious. From there on Toriko will be taking brutal hits one after another until, as you say, Joa arrives and shit gets real.
By the way, since Toriko is the Fork and the Knife, I guess Starjun would be the Oven, right? The chapter was short but intense.
-
I wanna see some fire attack. I mean, if Toriko is sending out this brutal hits, Setsuno destroys everything with her pression and Buranchi made Enel from One Piece a little shit, I expect Starjun will made an attack dwarfing Ace's Hentei.

Had you been sleeping in the latest 10 chapters or what? A change of pace is okay after so many frantic chapters.
-
Come on guys! Once the problem is the freaking pace, now it's the plot non-progress? This is a fight, and it involves the main character. If it would go entirely off screen someone would complain. Now that it's on screen it's boring and a waste of time?
-
I'm enjoying the pace of this fight. I mean it IS with Starjun. Author's been waiting for this, we, the audience, have been waiting for it. I'm glad it's being shown with vivid detail. The author's a guy who likes to go all-out on exhibition.

Nice to see Toriko use fatal intimidation like Setsuno. If now both of them will go all out, we don't need recap on how Toriko got a hole in his chest. And it's cool that he can heal such injuries on spot. That takes not only calories, but also strength of cells. I hope Shima will give fight just as dynamic as we wanted it all this time.
Back then Ichiryuu said that in terms of strength Toriko may pass, but Toriko got almost killed also because his attacks were not that strong against beasts, not only because he had no idea about dangers. Now we see this fight, with Toriko grown far over his level back then. And yet Gourmet World will show something even stronger. I'm sure of that. It's always like that in Toriko.
I can only wonder how strong Ichiryuu and Midora are.
-
Hater gon Hate, but imho that was one of the best chapters we've had in ages!!! Pure manly intensity!!! We haven't had anything as powerful as this since Toriko's battle with Tommy at Ice Hell!!!!
! This is an ultimate clash, but I think Toriko may have the upperhand!! They wouldn't introduce a new technique called "Ultimate Routine" if it wasn't…..........Ultimate! Unless Starjun has an equally powerful counter!! I think they may be on Par!!!
-

Yes, how strong can be these two (and Jirou, of course, but don't forget other characters like the guys from 0th Biotope - Rapp is stronger than Zebra…-, Teppei, Zaus, Shigematsu, Mansam - we saw a little demonstration of his real power - and, of course, Setsuno and...Joa).
Anyway, Toriko didn't use intimidation like Setsuno, he send two lethal hits agaist Starjun, which forseen the danger and dodged the first and guarded the latter.Talking of other things, Aimaru teaching some technique to Toriko is pretty amazing. We just saw Ai defeating (and maybe killing) Jerry Boy (who was Gourmet World material before the Kings) in a blink of an eye. He must be really tough!

Yes, lord forbid, we find some sort of middle ground where the pacing isn't super fast but doesn't bring the plot crashing to a halt either.

The problem is that we haven't gotten a fight yet. The pacing would have been fine if we had gotten to see the epic battle that drove Toriko to such a position. Some sort of payoff to a huge struggle. As is, Shimabukuro decided to skip all that so we're left without any sort of emotional investment in Toriko's struggle. We just got one huge infodump of a chapter on Toriko's gaymance with Komatsu instead of little bits here and there throughout an epic fight that would have gotten us invested.
Ultimately, it's just two of the most boring characters in the series mugging at each other. Sure the imagery is cool, but there's no substance to it. It's all so superficial. It all ties back to inconsistent pacing which has always been a huge problem with this series. He blazes through the initial fight and just randomly stops and slows down to a snail's pace at the most inopportune moment? What?

man toriko is one terrifying mofo in some of them panels geez

@Thousand:

You do know that this is a PURE shonen series? A manly man doing manly things thing? We don't want a steady pace, it would be boring. We want either an over the top fast plot progression or even faster fights. We have other shonen titles for the steady plot or predictable fights pace. Toriko is just a rollercoaster ride, enjoy it.
-
I love how people have been complaining about the pacing for 200 chapters but are still around.
You'd think it was enough time for people to realize Toriko's not their thing.
I'm enjoying it. I've been enjoying it every single week since the fest was interrupted and I'm still waiting for the next chapter. Also, I'm so glad the fest was interrupted, despite what most people here wanted. This is not a cooking manga.

Agreed. But despite everything I still think a somehow kinda different edition of the festival will be held by the chefs themselves when the battle ends. I think what Shima did there was some kind of elimination process. Many chefs will be kidnapped, others will go their way, and in the end only the ones that received special focus stay. This was also the only way Komatsu had any chance to pass to the next round since we now know Zaus won't be staying in the island for long.
Because no one here expected Shima to spent over 20 chapters in a shounen gourmet battle manga, right?
-
Got mixed feelings about this chapter. While I do hold Toriko to a lower standard when it comes to storytelling and characterization, the fight between Toriko and Star wasn't that interesting so far. I liked the pages with Star twice seeing himself die, and how him dodging Torikos attacks is well drawn (the choreography is good, easy to follow), but the fight itself so far is pretty boring. We had Toriko unleashing a barrage of attacks on Star, which apparently didn't even faze him that much, despite Star coughing blood, then we switch over to some other fights and back to this one, with Toriko being impaled by Star, which continues with him attacking Star again, while after 234 chapters we still haven't seen Star attack once. Think about that, we know that he can burn a tent (which is really unimpressive in the Torikoverse), and that he somehow managed to impale Toriko, but we have yet to see him throw an attack at anyone in flesh.
I suppose this is Shima teasing us about Stars hidden strength, so when the moment comes for him to actually do stuff, we are supposed to be super impressed.Star better be one hell of a fighter after all that teasing
-
Star better be one hell of a fighter after all that teasing
And that's why I think Toriko will lose the fight despite all the hype in this chapter.

What drew me into the manga initially wasn't the manly testosterone fights. The first few chapters where the series looked like it would be Toriko and Komatsu will be going ingredient hunting was what made me think this manga's special, a potential expansive world where Shima gets to go wild with creative ideas. It wasn't until later down the line that I realized Shima's limits as a story teller meant that the cool ideas will only be surface level, but he's still able to come up with cool designs and interesting concepts. Are the fights cool? Yeah, but I like Toriko for moments beyond that, hence why I will keep complaining about skipping over the cooking festival (and I was so confident at the time that this series was going to be great that I actually have been buying the physical copies as they come out, something I have only done for One Piece at the moment. Eventually am planning to buy series of all the manga I've read online but for obvious financial reason…)
As for this chapter, mentioned it already but I'll say it again. A great fight is all about the back and forth. Now, this clearly isn't going to be the end of Starjun since he's been foreshadowed to be bigger down the line (and I'll give Shima this. Sure, the foreshadowing/reveals tend to be superficial but he does leave the breadcrumbs for people to follow), but the fight would be much more interesting if Starjun wasn't just testing Toriko and actually fought back. Hence why for me chapter = not very interesting. Now, I can understand not wanting another Tommyrod situation where characters have shown all they're capable of, but I still think fights can have two characters get into a brawl, still have more to reveal in the future and end without having one side getting defeated.
Only other bit I'm worried about is that despite the forum's and general lack of enthusiasm for Toriko, he is the titular character. Unless the story's going to cut away for the fight, this should be the final climatic fight right before the true climax of the arc starts rolling, which implies the rest of the battles have been shown all they were going to be shown. Now, given his usual breakneck speed I prepared myself for the speed up, but after Tommyrod/Sunny and Elg/Brunch? Got spoiled and was hoping the rest of the fights will be follow through as well.

So anyways, how tasty is Starrjun ?
