Cipher Pol 9: Oct 9, 2006

So now Buranchi is an important enough character the he warrants his own side-battle? Or is this a case of Mitsutoshi just having a short attention span when it comes to the main cast?

Somehow I'd have to imagine that someone who can regenerate a new one of himself, seemingly equal in power to the original, from every cell of his body would have a lot of himself floating around. But then again since this is Toriko he probably eats all his copies after every fight.

Yup! Ever since his intro and interactions with Komatsu, Buranchi's been stealing spotlight like a new member of the main characters and I get the feeling he's here to stay. It'd be cool to have another chef on the team, and who better than the best one who isn't evil?

Also: Rule of battle in Toriko. Whatever it is, turn your power into a sword. Electricity, poison, smells, gently caress it, try and cut somebody with it. I'm waiting for Zebra to scream into his hand and make a sound sword.

Nitro have been hyped up over the course of this manga as legendary, insanely powerful end-boss level creatures.

Now Zebra is thrashing them like they're nothing. That should result in power creep complaints but I don't care at all because he's so goddamn awesome.

And he was still only the second coolest thing this chapter because OLD PEOPLE DEATH MATCH.

This manga is so food. I misspelled that but I stopped autocorrect from fixing it because, hey.

Didn't you read the chapter? Ichiryuu left the Human World, probably including IGO, to (if he survives) Handsome.

I hope he does, too. He's too cool to go out now.

Good chapter, but man, I know it's a shonen manga, but are we really going to forgive Chiyo so quickly? Remember when she sliced out a guy's torso without him even noticing? That poo poo was scary. But I guess if we can forgive Midora after he literally caused space to begin eating his adoptive older brother alive, what the hell, right? Shonen manga.

Two weeks from now is too far away. The world needs to know: God drat it, where are you Coco?

Also I'm calling Coco joining Neo, because where else could he even be?

I'm still on board with the "melted down into poison completely and is now inside Grinpatch" theory, but that's because Coco is my favorite.

The Bishokukai got freaking dismantled by NEO. I wonder what they will look like in the coming chapters.

Despite their villain status up until now, what are the odds of them joining the good guys? I don't know if Starjun can really be forgiven considered his mutilation of Toriko and theft of Komatsu was so recent, but if Neo attacks now and takes Komatsu, I don't think Toriko will hold a grudge.

EDIT: Also seconding happy at seeing Grinpach off his game and Coco back. If he really was drained of poison, I wonder what his fighting style will become? I don't know how much farther he could have gone unveiling secreter poisons every fight, though him having to create new poisons on the fly was cool, if that even happened. I remember it, but my memory is sketchy at best.

Wouldn't you be?

"Well I just murdered my older brother and devastated human world for no discernible reason, and now most of my evil organization wrecked my base and defected to an even more evil organization. I am literally starving with rage!"

I like to think Gourmet cells replace most major emotions with hunger. Except, of course, the pain of a "delicious hunter" being unable to protect a single cooker. :smith:

If you aren't watching the anime, we are on the Sani vs Tommy Rod fight. It is pretty fricken sweet.

What?! Man that feels so recent, I guess the Fest arc was just that long. Gotta go back through the anime and watch some choice moments, I haven't had the time to follow it since the Melk arc I think.

I wish I could bump this thread with an actual translation rather than this:

http://www.mangabird.com/toriko-264?page=3

But aw man Toriko's back

I took a look at the first few pages and said "Nope, I'll wait for a real translation."

Then I went, read Beelzebub, and came right back because goddamn it I needs me some Toriko. And drat what a chapter. The scales were already insane before, they seem to have gotten even crazier now. Can't wait for the inevitable flashbacks to figure out how the hell we went from entering Gourmet World to Toriko of the Apes featuring Komatsu. Also, Capsule Corp! That ought be interesting.

Also, anyone else catch themselves thinking, "Man, Komatsu's grown up!" but then remembered he's like in his twenties? That's always weird.

gently caress, Toriko should've put the garlic on his full course. I like that the only boring ingredient on there so far is the BB Corn.

Ah yes, the 20-story tall super-tough popped corn that has to be heated by a volcano in order to pop and feed a hundred people. So boring! :colbert:

Just kidding, it is sort of boring. I think the Rainbow Fruit is comparatively more boring, but it also looks more delicious. It also made me check the Toriko wiki, where I found out that it "ranked 28th in the first Popularity Poll with 23 votes, tieing with the Grinpatch." And that's hilarious.

7. Miraculously, the four kings pulls off another "Dinner of Kings" which may be enough to defeat Joa.

Really? They're gonna try and end it with the Hunger Bomb? I love Toriko, but that was a really weak finisher even when it was first used.

When I saw those weird demon faces, I thought they were related to the Old Man Daruma that Brunch always mentioned.

I thought so too! Nobody's said it but maybe everyone's thinking it: could this be the Bewitching Food World that Brunch is from? He said it was in the Gourmet World, didn't he?

It happened like four or five times but the Old Man Daruma dying gag killed me every single time.

Also I like how Zebra's can make even just "Can hear a huge guy who talks quietly" seem badass.

drat, the atmosphere on those last pages is intense. Scatter Nail Punch was pretty badass, can't wait to see what the author will actually show of this fight. I could have read a whole 'nother chapter of just the gang talking flanked by increasing angry close-up panels of Heracle's face, so to actually get to the action this fast is awesome.

This is the first time I've seen a character's hair color become a plot point when the color wasn't white. That's pretty neat.

Are we not going to talk about Train Shark? Because he's amazing. Love that Toriko.

I wish he hadn't said the monkey king "eclipses" the Horse King tho. On par with or exceeds maybe, but the Horse along blasted half of Toriko off, how in the world are they supposed to touch something that much stronger?

Actually, it only feels like it took that long! Translation is done in the Back Channel now, so Toriko is already out and the entertainment flavor is at 120%!

Appetite Demon Soul World Cruise Liner is some wacky poo poo that could only exist in Toriko and it's amazing. Shame we didn't get to see some food-demony transformations for the other chefs though, just Komatsu's "Air-Cooking" form. Which was still neat.
