The new chapter's out, and we learn that Area 6 has its own set of 'Kings,' animals with Capture Levels over 4,000. Whale King Moon still reigns supreme over all of them. I really can't wait to see just what Moon looks like unobscured.

People, a quick question. I haven't read Toriko _yet_ so I was wondering, does Toriko ever have an Expospeak? Since I know Toriko has worldbuilding with Gourmet World. But I was just thinking, is this something that is explained to the audience or is it like One Piece where we have to figure it out ourselves? Is it explained early on in the beginning as "this is our world." Or is it more of an over-arching device with few clues every arc or something like that? Thanks in advance.

It's more of the latter, but there's a narration for a lot of important elements.

Could you elaborate on that? I don't mind being spoiled. Could you reference some chapters for your claims, so I can skim through it so I can better understand what is meant here and how Toriko executes/avoids this trope? Thanks though.

It looks like the last of the Eight Kings has been revealed: the Deer King.

[up]Well, all of them except for Bambina. Hell, even Terry, Kiss, and Quinn are bigger than he is, though nowhere near as powerful yet.

Well, I don't like how every King is a hugeass motherfucker. It just kinda lost its effect, since we already see the hugeass Heracles. I would like it better if the Kings are varied in size.

Well, is Guineas really huge comparatively speaking? Yeah, he's much bigger than Bambina but compare to the others he's a small fry (in terms of size not power, obviously).

I'd like this series a lot more of if I could remember most of the characters' names or abilities. Well, I suppose the fact that I can't do that says something about my overall opinion of the manga.

But anyway, could someone bother explaining the "Acacia was evil all along" thing, because I still don't get it.

And yeah, things have been crazy even for Toriko lately.

Basically,Acacia realized that the Earth's/his Full Course is merely the beginning of something bigger.Since it's all about new food/tastes,he accepted the Demon King,so he'll get to taste ALL of Earth's taste for starters,then hitch a ride on Neo to taste the universe.

Or something.Basically,he wants to eat new things.Constantly.

How do you think Acacia's disciples fair when compared to the Eight Kings?

I also have a hard time believing any of the Eight Kings couldn't destroy the world if they really wanted.

Considering that a disciple of Bambina can potentially destroy world, Bambina himself certainly could at full power.

So I hear the manga is supposed to end by the end of next year. Anyone know anything about that?
