The anime will go on a break in 2 weeks so I hope they do the Sani fight justice when it returns.
The toriko punches were disappointing and mansam's animation is a disgrace.

If you only watch the anime, please go read the manga when you finish an episode and see the difference.

Episode was okay.

Good to see blood in this arc.
It´s not nearly the amount of blood like in the manga, but I´m okay with that.

Animation was terrible, Torikos fierce attacks lacked impact,
they showed the same Branchi- and Livebearer-scenes over and over and the cheapest attack was Livebearers attack with the swords...

I really hope for a scene by Shida in Torikos fight or even make some decent animation like the training fight against Ichiryuu or Toriko against Grinpatch.

Animation was so underwhelming and so many reused scenes it was gross

I though the action quality would skyrocket since they learn Food Honor, i had high expectations from the big-ass leg knife who crushed the sound barrier and the stadium and all. But they are dragging the fights for too long. Now, even when they dare throw a punch, it's just a weak attack against an opponent standing like an idiot (yep yep, they aren't full-power at all).

And Komatsu, please, stop bitching, everyone knows you would be OP enough with your knife. He DOES know how to fight since i-don't-remember-which-episode-but-it-was-a-long-time-ago, it was all about thinking of the enemy as food, but it looks like everyone forgot. ;_;

That was a bad ass episode. The fight with Toriko and Starjun was epic. Anyone else spot Hulk?

Yeah they did reuse some scenes. Didn't progress too much

...Seriously, as powered up as Toriko is, Starjun should have had his insides pulverized after the first multi-kugi punch.

Star isn't that weak, that's the thing.

I'm not too fussed with the animation for this episode of it means during the proper parts of the good fights they improve. Would have been nice for these bits to have more impact but future episodes are much more important. If they screw that too then, well, that will suck!

Marvelous seeing the other chefs around in action as well. xD But oh man, pretty awesome seeing the big fight coming right around the corner.

I somehow thought starjun would have better defenses or he just wanted to see how much infliction toriko could do without dodging.

Behold of my awesomeness~
controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted.

when did Rin became a Jedi, lol? Btw "handsome" attacks lucked impacted a lot more than Toriko's. The guy was kicking ass and bathing in blood and in the anime it looked like he was just making body building poses.

You hit the nail on the head. That's exactly what he was doing.

Toriko punches haven't gotten weaker. Actually his 50 ren kugi punch is now a lot stronger than if he did 50 ren in the past because of food honor. The reason that Starjun is a big pile of meat after taking those techniques is because he really is THAT powerful.
It wasn't about showing Toriko be weaker than what he is suppose to be. I about showing how terrifyingly powerful Starjun is.
