Shocked I tell you
Well at least we know now who the strongest of the 8 Kings is. It's the Whale King.

Coco's partner (the poison cooking guy) makes sense I guess but it's weird that we have a new guy in the spotlight so late in the series. Did he place highly on the popularity vote or something?

Both Sunny/Livebearer and Zebra/Brunch are definitely gonna be a blast to see though :allears:

i figure new guy might be a turncoat for one of the other groups trying to get the full course or else he's going to get red-shirted

I like my coffee with cream and lsd.
I seriously can't wait for more Livebearer faces and the inevitable Sani gross-out reaction faces. What an awesome match up!

Is anyone else ready for some Star back story? Why does he always look so sad?

So in regards to which King is in which zone, I'm assuming now that:

Each character will go to their respective pet's ancestor.
Toriko will go to the Battle Wolf
Coco to the Raven
Sunny to the Snake

which leaves Zebra to the Dragon?


Derous is the king that is probably the one who will be a factor in CENTER, the mythic "bring out your dead" Hors d'oeuvre

Reiche posted:

I thought this was touched upon way back when he met Toriko and Komatsu at the Danger Zone Restraunt in the swamp.

He's apparently searching for an ingredient that he has either forgotten the taste to or the taste was taken from him.

For the longest time, I thought that the ingredient that he found on the brain wall in the Livebearer Arc (THE BEST ARC) was going to be the ingredient, until you know... it was revealed it was the taste of Billion Bird.

EDIT:

I just realized Whale King Moon is the thing the size of the moon that fell into the Black Triangle.

Let's wish for a Whale to take us to the Moon!

I am so excited about what the coming chapters will show off. I loved the makeshift Brunch/Zebra pairing from the anime, now I get to see the manga do true justice to what this can bring. Sani/Livebearer just makes it even better.

I think I remember it being implied/stated somewhere that "Frohze" was actual-Frohze's daughter.

Based on the pair's gender changing powers, and earth being cooked, I'm curious if Joa is actually Acacia.

Looking forward to the moon whale being the Regal Mammoth 2.0. Another is going to be its eggs (caviar). Getting each item on Acacia's full course is going to require helping one of the eight kings get laid or give birth, or something.

ANOTHER is likely a different creature, given that the Moon Whale is the boss, but only seems to be related in that it'll make getting ANOTHER harder. Also, ANOTHER is what's supposed to make the Stardust Rivers in Area Six so I doubt it would be any sort of caviar.

It's Toriko. Sharks aren't normally equipped with spas, tigers don't have alcohol for blood, and jellyfish do not grant superpowers. Whales not only have the possibility to lay eggs in gourmet world, but the eggs themselves would have some supernatural aspect about them (like having a disco ball effect where the different amounts of colored lights reflected indicates it's nutrient configuration).

I'm legitimately surprised we haven't seen this yet. Maybe that gourmet DJ will come back and he'll have to spin some bitchin tunes to cook.

Of course they give one of the most dangerous men alive (Zebra) a loving Battleship.

So the next ingredient is a fish that creates stardust wherever it swims and is so delicious that it sunders open the boundaries between life and death itself, allowing death-juice to seep through and turn a whole ocean into a variety of tasty braises, soups, and sauces. Yeah, okay.

We just had gender-bending soup that opens doors to spirit world which drips from a monkey king's balls that fall off in two dimensions simultaneously after a dance battle, this is nothing
