I don't understand why the series would suddenly privilege anger when the entire red universe fights have been about Toriko having 'wild fights' where anger is not involved, simply survival. Do folks in the black cell universe fight endlessly until it 'gets personal' and then the fighter with the most angst eats the loser?

RE: Toriko III: It's Over!!
Maybe we are entering the Gourmet World Night Arc? Although, it is very strange that we have not receieved any more of those 'menu item' cells that denote a new arc's beginning; like, we are technically still in the ANOTHER arc

RE: Toriko III: It's Over!!
Nope… So far we've only seen Midora, Alfaro, Star and Chiyo who defected.
Jeez. Looks like the entire Otake-Komatsu plotline is gone.

What happened to Otake? Have we seen him at all post-timeskip?

RE: Terra ForMars
Is there a consistent release schedule from the scan laters? It's feels as though there are a lot of untranslated chapters (the raw's and/or Chinese scans) that are being translated quickly now. I think three chapters have been released in the span of a week or two? Are we just really far behind?

RE: Toriko II: Ichiryuu's Slimy Insides!!
! Right, I am not saying that all characters and their powers should be given 3 chapters+, I am just concerned that relatively (in that they were able to move about the GW freely and had very high level titles) important characters (much like Boneless, the bubblegum guy, and Shigematsu) will not be detailed. I mean, the sudden animal characteristics of a member of the Oth, the top ranked Human world chef, a Human World National Treasure, and the former Bishokaki's top scientist just feels like end of series information/battles. I get that Toriko is not at One Piece levels of sales or popularity, but Bleach's current arc has been rambling on for almost two years without much sign of slowing (even in the midst of horrible sales, likely worse). I just don't want Toriko to end prematurely like other good shonen: yu yu hakusho, hitman reborn, etc.

RE: Toriko II: Ichiryuu's Slimy Insides!!
! To clarify, we are seeing now a lot of the final villans and their powers are not being explained; I mean for example: I never really considered that JoeJoe would have an appetite demon/monster inside; that feels very much like something that was going to be revealed as a surprise later on in the series. What I am trying to say is that it feels as though Mitsutoshi is being rushed to finish the series in the same way the Hitman Reborn was rushed to its end: A final villan briefly introduced and then defeated by some poorly fleshed-out flaw (an issue I have been having with Blech (not a typo) lately).

I am getting really scared now… I don't want Toriko to be cut short like Hitman Reborn

So what ever happened to Grinpatch and Alfaro? I kinda liked those guys…
