Synopsis

In a world where the taste and texture of food are an extremely important part of life, a man with superhuman skills is regularly hired by restaurants and the rich as a hunter of precious foods. With the "help" of his timid accomplice, inspired by Toriko's greatness to accompany him, he travels to capture the evasive and ferocious animals he needs to create the ultimate dinner course.

This manga is a classic example of Jump axeing their good manga line of battle shonen , its a shame too the anime got canceled so there was no point in keeping the manga alive , Toriko is about Toriko who wants to complete his full course meal , aka his favorite food list its also got Komasu too , the Toei anime really ruined this series greatness , the manga is better than the anime that for sure , the ending is rush as its was a manga facing cancellation , the series art and world building was amazing ...
