opinionated commentary on all things shonen

I have no idea what te natural orientation of Balbamoth heads is supposed to be, but I’m sure it’s not pretty. Toriko’s evidently disturbed a scorpion’s nest full of them, as they’re crawling out from alcoves everywhere.
Te heavy gravity does handicap Toriko at te start of te fight, but he gradually compensates for his sluggish movements through a combination of careful observation and fighting experience. This analysis-based fighting style has been more characteristic of Toriko, despite his power-oriented moveset.
Just after Toriko gets used to dodging, te next challenge appears: a massive pile-on of Balbamoths. Te panel with them all leaping feels part Lord of te Rings, part Eyeshield 21, and is certainly a lively one. How Toriko reacts to this situation is even more of a pleasent surprise; I don’t think I’ve seen him pull off 360 degree defense before. That’s a novel use for te fork.
Just don't fumble te ball, Sena
In true Toriko fashion, te Balbamoths were just scrap food for an even larger beast. I have to wonder what that crab-minotaur creature’s Capture Level is.
We shift back to Melk and Komatsu, who introduces a few more sharpening tricks, including te gradient whetstone, a 3-in-1 sharpening stone. It almost seems like something out of an infomercial. With all te inferiority Melk II keeps expressing in comparing himself to te original, I’m expecting something impressive when we finally meet te master. Maybe he can sharpen a boulder or something.
Oh boy, hot springs. We are setting ourselves up for some bromantic cuddling once Toriko gets back, aren’t we? Te idea of Toriko having a hot springs episode is as hilarious as it is odd.
Final Flash: Toriko’s still fighting like a veteran, not at all relying on raw power to get him through te Heavy Hole. That’s quite encouraging.
