Assassination Classroom also had the advantage of being by someone who already had a fairly substantial run in Jump (Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro) previously, so established author fanbase.

Definitely feel like it's wrapping up now. Gourmet world was supposed to be the final adventure... additionally, there were/are so many threads that if the author pulled them all we'd end up with a year of Sanji's having nose bleeds and no other straw hats...

I was expecting goons to be mad that Ichiru is being revived, but I guess everyone's fine with bonkers stuff happening in this bonkers manga. How is Toriko not popular when weak rear end assassination classroom is?

Not mad, but I honestly cannot give a poo poo about Toriko anymore recently. It's just bouncing all over the place, insane stuff happens every single week but it's so hard to care about any of it. There's no real payoff because we cut to different stuff all the freaking time. I want it to go back to the days of Toriko getting his hand cut off and then using his bloody stump to beat the poo poo out of Tommyrod.

This chapter was particularly bad about that. Read it and just went "Huh? I guess that works." There's no focus, no time to make an emotional connection with any of the 30 characters they're jumping between, and the pacing is hideous.

Incidently page 14 has an actual picture of the WHALE KING I just realized. Look at its goddamn mouth, it basically is a goddamn mouth, the gently caress.

While pacing in Toriko has always been pretty fast. Lately things have been moving at breakneck speed. Unless the whole cooking God thing is just another arc and we'll have wacky adventures in space or something, it all comes in way to fast. From a story perspective, we're in the endgame here. It feels very sudden and fast which often happens when a series gets the signal to wrap things up.

Does anyone happen to know where Toriko ranks on the Jump questionnaires? Bakuman taught me that high rankings are the key to staying published in Jump. It's just as possible that the Mangaka wants to wrap this sucker up and move on to something else too, not everyone wants to have Naruto length runs, and Oda is basically the only guy crazy enough to go the full One Piece and run for decades. Or maybe he's just upping the pace so it ends within 2-3 years instead of what could easily have been 5 years if he stuck to the formula and did a detailed story on the acquisition of each Full Course item. Ultimately, I think the most likely outcome of all is everyone (myself definitely included) is overreacting to the fact that we saw a big time skip (which we're now starting to see in some detail in flashbacks) and that we probably aren't going to see all the rad cooking battles.

Yeah seeing as the problem with most manga nowadays is that everything's too slow, having this rushing through absolutely everything is unfortunate. This could be mad awesome if a bit more time was taken, there's so much to explore. Also, speaking of long running manga, is that kochikame still running? What kind of ratings does it get? It seems like dog poo poo but I bet people love it cos it's an institution.

Toriko has been pretty much stable on the 7-8 spot for a long time now. So not quite in the danger zone so to speak. kochikame is still running and doing about the same as Toriko ranking wise.

I think people are right to view the acceleration with suspicion when the beginning of the arc sections were introduced as: ~Gourmet World Menu 1: AIR~ ~Gourmet World Menu 2: PAIR~ ~Gourmet World Menu 3: Everything Else~

Even before the time skip, wasn't the Gourmet Eclipse going to happen soon anyway? It seems like even the rushing was sort of planned back then.

I know it seems like Toriko is getting wrapped up in a hurry but I wouldn't worry about it, DBZ went on for like a decade after someone blew up the entire moon for basically no reason.

So I'm guessing that each of the four heavenly kings are going to have their final battles with their respective kings and get their ultimate ingredients, Midora Jirou and Ichiryuu are going to team up to take down the blue Nitro/Acacia, maybe Komatsu gets Joa? Or the dragon king which no one else seems to be fighting now? I don't really care, so long as the last chapter is one giant gay marriage between every character with Komatsu at the center.
