And once Dragon Ball is in it, you can call Shenron and wish for these specials to stop, or to be of better quality, at least.
Anyways, this episode should be fun, if only to see the interactions between Luffy and Goku. I really hope they read Cross Epoch as reference though…
What is the point of doing these cross overs?
Are they trying to get more people to watch toriko or something?

Well, the point of this one is the three year anniversary of the anime.
Also, can't find the stream at this moment, but I'll keep looking.

And to promote the Dragon Ball movie, aaand the new crossover game that's coming up this year, aaaaaand because it somewhat helps as buffer I imagine…
Welp. Let's see how this goes.
how much time till the show?
Seen as the last one got shut, here's the new stream~
Not all that excited for this crossover, but I guess on the plus side, at least it's coming now instead of interrupting some of the more interesting story bits further down the road.
How long did it take for the other crossovers to get subbed?

I think it was about a week later.
Anime-Destiny did them the past two times, so I'd expect them to do it again.
I've no idea since I don't usually care about these crossovers, since I don't follow Toriko…
So I'm also curious to know this...

Perhaps the fact that we also have Dragon Ball in this one means we'll get subs earlier? I hope so…

Could be longer. If a fansub group that usually only does one of them does it, they have to research all the attacks and the way a character from another series talks in order to properly translate them.
Isn't Funimation going to sub it?It's part of the episode list unlike other specials.They have the rights to all 3 and not having Toriko last time is what stopped them from subbing the previous 2 right?

They had Toriko licensed when they the first one aired. The other two were also part of the episode list (542 and 492), but that didn't stop them from adding a disclaimer and saying they weren't releasing.
It's probably because the Toriko simulcast isn't the same night as the OP one, but that could be wrong also, because they didn't include the first special on the Toriko DVD.
I think I'll have to got o the dentist to check all the new cavities I have after watching a couple of minutes of that magical girl show currently streaming..
I'm about to puke a rainbow too
I wish Funimation would capitalize on these crossovers, but it's probably not in their contract or whatever.

When it comes to crossover specials, there are more rights involved than just the ones for the individual shows. These rights are extremely difficult to secure and as far as I know, FUNimation hasn't managed to secure them for this crossover.

It's one of the shows that Toei loves to spend their money on instead of on One Piece, Pretty Cure.

What other rights would there be exactly?
I lost interest on this after the premise was revealed to be "Everyone vs Pufferfish of Doom" instead of Wacky Races starring the cast of OP, Toriko and DB.

sadly it doesn't work for me..streaming gets interrupted after a couple of minutes every time

Oda also considers Pretty Cure to be the true rival of the OP Anime, since his children seem to like magical girls more than pirates.
Here's a bit from a 2009 interview:
- By the way, what characters do your children like? [Good interviewer! Who’s a cutey?]
- They like Nami-chan. Nami-chan and Chopper. But basically it seems that they like ‘Pretty Cure’ better. And so it is that Pretty Cure is that which stokes the flames of rivalry in my heart. I wanna take Pretty Cure down. (laughs)

My understanding of it is that when a show is licensed, Toei isn't the only company that has a say in it. All of the companies that provide funding do as well. These crossover episodes apparently involve additional companies aside from the usual ones and it's these extra companies that create licensing woes for FUNimation. For whatever reason, they can't seem to come to an agreement with them and secure the rights.
Nice opening song.
Was that song solely for the special or is it actually the new opening of the Toriko anime? I could only hear references to Toriko's attacks,

Someone get the roach spray.
I hope someone at least makes a raw.

That will be released like 4 hours after the episode, like always.
Mr. Satan made a cool entrance. XD
Yeah, Yamcha is in the audience because he already knows he's useless
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
ANd god it's weird when you here Krillin with Luffy's voice in this
! Zoro vs Vegeta vs Zebra, shit just got real
neat opening song, too bad we didn´t saw the new opening sequence yet.
…this is even more out of character than i anticipated. toriko looking everywhere like crazy when goku talks with kaioh-sama??? he can do exactly the same with zebra...
i just hope people won´t judge toriko by this shit of 2 hours.
tina spotted. i´m out. btw she´s filler and ruins everything of the first arcs.

You pay too much attention to the little things that don't really matter.
Hey guys, remember that time when Goku and Luffy teamed up to save Japan from Enel?
LOL Mr. Satan! RUN!
I'm kind of surprised that they actually seem to be making GOku flat out superior, even if they are still toning him down. It makes sense, but I thought they try their best to make them all completely equal
Hey guys, remember that time when Goku and Luffy teamed up to save Japan from Enel?
I do! It was pretty awsome in my opinion
the way satan won… BUAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is anyone surprised?
Goku got nerfed.
This is actually pretty fun so far. I like that they actually had Toriko, Luffy, and Goku fight, and that they actually showed that Goku was superior to both of them (because let's face it, he is).
@Monkey:
Goku got nerfed.
Well, I think most Dragon Ball fans should have expected this. Still, Goku looked like he wasn't even trying. Both Luffy and Toriko looked like they were putting forth effort, while Goku looked like he was playing. Of course, in the end, the 3 of them ended up losing and more or less like equals, but I'm happy by how they were portrayed so far…
new opening for OP next week?

pretty much. Honestly, as I said before, I really expected them to make them out as complete equals, which really isn't right.

Toriko matters A LOT to me. It´s the best manga I´ve ever read. And Toei RUINS it every.single.week.

just think if he got SSJ2 or 3…
! Lol Majin Buu and Franky.
Apparently Toriko put in the most effort for the fight. :(
That sucks. Did Goku or Luffy go SSJ or Gear? An what about Vegeta vs. Zoro vs. Zebra.
