DON’T ask him how old he is

Does anyone have the Japanese raw version of the Regal Mammoth’s data card? Just want some clarification on the mammoth’s weight.

The viz translation of the card states the mammoth weighs 50,000,000 kilograms, but the Toriko wiki says it weighs 50,000,000 tons. Which one is correct?

There was a fan poll in the 29.5 fanbook that gave me the inspiration for this. It was some kind of poll that had a bunch of top favorite “wanna-see” bishokuya/chef combis - Ichiryuu and Zaus ranked number 1 because it’s the top hunter with the top chef! Although something tells me they wouldn’t have the kind of chemistry Toriko and Komatsu have 😂 lmao

I've done my research of course so I know how hard it is to get your hands on the Toriko figures, especially the four kings and Komatsu and Terry set. But it was my 30th birthday in April and im so sad I still can't find them anywhere, I've been looking for months with NO LUCK.

It's called swallowed star, a chinese anime where you can find every episode on youtube with english subtitles. it looks amazing and the show never seems to run out of budget. its cgi tho, but very good cgi

It doesnt have any food themes. At the start, it takes place on Earth that's getting overrun by mutated beasts. The mc is one of the humans with superpowers who defends Earth. Eventually the mc leaves Earth to protect it from hostile aliens.

Here are some similarities between the two series.

Insane feats: swallowed star has characters that are capable of fighting on a white dwarf star. You also see characters clashing in space which results in a shockwave destroying several planets. These feats are nowhere near what the toptiers are capable of.

Things that are on large scale: has solar system sized planets and space civilizations that has millions of galaxies. its also mentioned there are planet sized beasts in the universe.

Both authors like to work with numbers. you get shown how much force there is behind a punch or how fast someone is etc.

I would say swallowed star has a decent amount of focus on world building but not as much as toriko.

If you are curious, just give it a try.

Even if it's untranslated

It would be interesting to hear some of ya’ll headcanons (^○)

From what it looks like, the laser was able to reach what may be the Oort Cloud and beyond in a single scan. It would take light between "300 to 1,200 days to reach the inner edge and one year to reach the furthest edge."

I want this remake so bad people, I know its likely never going to happen, but please sign the petition if you support!

Apparently, Viz has a "series suggestion" option on their site. https://www.reddit.com/r/MangaCollectors/comments/1fufcsx/reminder_contact_your_publishers_for_new_licenses/

I think if we all suggest Toriko reprints, it could potentially happen

I throughly enjoyed making this

I was in Toriko fandom for a long time but it feels even emptier now
