Roland Jones posted:Checking out this for the first time, it might just be the phrase "Gourmet Hunter" but I am now reminded of Hunter X Hunter, and the opening chapter has only furthered that, between its over-the-top introduction and the main character first showing up fishing. Not that this is a bad thing; HXH is one of my favorite series and if this is basically a more ridiculous version of it then that alone should be massively entertaining. It's not really like Hunter X Hunter. It is, however, pretty loving great.

The best part of this chapter was Zebra headlocking one Nitro and punching it in the face while stomping on the face of another

MegaCharger posted:I almost wish IGO president and the Bishokukai boss would both show up as well to confront Joa, but I guess it's a little bit too early for that. I think Jiro will just use knocking to disable Teppei until Komatsu learns to cut the evil out of people under pressure.

Sindai posted:I don't think that's even a real physics thing? It sounded like pseudoscience at best to me. It is, uh, kind of true in that it works for several classical treatments - which leads me to my next statement, I hope to god that Midora kills Ichiryuu and says "Didn't you know? The square root is just an approximation "

I really wanna know how being kidnapped by Starjyun is going to work out for Komatsu. I'm calling he gets some sort of weird cooking powerup out of being faced with something cool. Or else the IGO/Bishokukai team up occurs and the kidnap subplot ends with Starjyun awkwardly returning Komatsu and joining his muscle harem.

Serious Frolicking posted:They are trying to pretend that Toriko possesses empathy even though he spent a year stuffing his face with the most delicious food imaginable while most humans were living through an unprecedented famine. Actually, this is completely consistent with the christmas story where they feed people one day of the year. Well, Komatsu is going to come back and cook Ichiryuu's Full Course and thereby end world hunger. And he'll make it delicious just to show up everyone else, possibly with hints he got from 6 months with Midora, Honorary Muscle Harem Member. (Midora can never properly join Komatsu's muscle harem because he remains forever part of Frohze's)

Fabricated posted:What he should've done is play the Rin marriage totally straight and had it be appropriately sappy with Toriko giving it more than 2 seconds of thought and no one being confused about it. I dunno, I kinda like "what does that have to do with this? " in regards to his combo with Komatsu.

Mr. Maltose posted:I love that the answer to "How to make the Billion Bird not taste like poo poo" is that no one gives a drat because it's not a food pill. I got the feeling it was just mediocre, kind of like how they would react to a real-world chicken. Also the true answer was clearly give that motherfucker a hug

Brandfarlig posted:That's probably quite common though, unless you're a huge drunk or planning for the destruction of all farmland in the human world. The basic problem I think is that the power (err, flavor?) creep has rendered the early stuff on Toriko's Full Course like Rainbow Fruit kinda boring by comparison.

Silento posted:I've thought about reading HxH, but the constant hiatuses stopped me. Sounds painful, especially if it's as good as people say. It's worth it. The hiatuses aren't that bad, they suck for a month or two when it happens but then you give up and forget about it except for the occasional idle "I wish that would come back from hiatus" thought until you see it pop back up on your manga reader of choice and you go hey it's time to reread it so I remember what's happening! Nen remains one of the best combat systems in shonen because it has been so far pretty effective at avoiding power levels. Not that power levels are explicitly bad, the series we're in the thread for uses them pretty explicitly and I find myself not hating them edit: I mean all the manga readers use scans for a certain arc that are essentially Togashi scribbling on a napkin. They were redrawn for the volumes so if decide to read it and have the means do yourself a favor there and look at the redrawn ones because jesus christ. ONE's mangas are better drawn. and possibly better Shugojin fucked around with this message at 03:38 on Jun 19, 2014 |
