Synopsis
[edit]Setting
[edit]The planet ofTorikois separated into two parts; the Human World(Nhân gian giới,Ningen-kai)and the Gourmet World(グルメ giới,Gurume-kai).[4]The Human World is where modern civilization exists and occupies just 30% of the planet, the rest is the Gourmet World, which is inhospitable to most humans due to the strength of the wildlife and extreme climate changes. In the Gourmet Age(グルメ thời đại,Gurume Jidai),which began five centuries ago at the end of the hundred-year war, the taste and texture of food is extremely important. The International Gourmet Organization(Quốc tế グルメ cơ cấu,Kokusai Gurume Kikō)(IGO), maintains order and defends civilians from dangerous animals and gourmet criminals. Originally set-up by theUnited Nations,the IGO is now independent from them and holds more influence as it is composed of 360 nations.[5]They apply a numerical rating from 1 to 100, referred to as Capture Levels(Bộ hoạch レベル,Hokaku Reberu),to most ingredients based on the difficulty of acquiring it.[6]The IGO has a group of seven individuals with highly sensitive taste, called the Gourmet 7(グルメセブン,Gurume Sebun)or G7, that are in charge of assigning the star ranking of restaurants and the ranking of chefs.[7]
Individuals known as Gourmet Hunters(Mỹ thực ốc,Bishokuya,lit."Gourmet Food Providers" ),who have usually trained their abilities to that of superhuman, are regularly hired by restaurants and the rich to seek high-level ingredients and rare animals. One can also increase their strength by implanting Gourmet Cells(グルメ tế bào,Gurume Saibō)into their bodies.[8][9]Gourmet Revivers(Tái sinh ốc,Saiseiya,lit."Regeneration Providers" )are those who dedicate themselves to protecting ingredients from extinction or exhaustion, and who can also arrest people that partake in the transaction of illegal goods, violate poaching laws,[10][11]or causes extinction of an entire species.
Plot
[edit]Toriko is a Gourmet Hunter searching for the most precious foods in the world so he can create his full-course meal. A man with inhuman ability, he utilizes his incredible strength and knowledge of the animal kingdom to capture ferocious, evasive, and rare beasts to further his menu. He is accompanied by the weak and timid chef Komatsu, who, inspired by Toriko's ambition, travels with him to improve his culinary skills and to find rare ingredients. Toriko and his friends often fight against the Gourmet Corps(Mỹ thực hội,Bishoku-kai),who seek to take control of the world's entire food supply and are looking for the highly sought-after ingredient GOD(GOD ( ゴッド ),Goddo),which the legendary Gourmet Hunter Acacia used to end the war that took place five-hundred years before the series began.

Otaku USA's Joseph Luster calledToriko"an absolute feast for fans of beasts", not able to tell "whether Shimabukuro just comes up with everything on the spot or if it's all meticulously planned out", and said that the series' charm is "how it effortlessly applies classicshonentropes to such an outlandish world. "[63]However, he commented that "The formula ofTorikois apparent right from the start in true shonen fashion[...] tougher and tougher creatures will quickly follow. "[64]Deb Aoki writing forAbout.comalso praised the imaginative beasts and monsters of the series, as well as the occasional informational bits on the true science of foods, but called the art "grotesquely goofy."[2]
Lissa Pattillo ofAnime News Network(ANN) calledTorikoan "in-your-face action story riding on the back of a gastronomic fetch-quest."[65]She compared Toriko's design to that of characters fromDragon BallandFist of the North Star,and suggested this might deter some readers.[65]ANN's Rebecca Silverman stated that "Shimabukuro has clearly devoted time and thought to crafting the story's world, as complex creatures, animal profiles, and distinctive landscapes attest.", and called his art an "odd mix of old schoolJoJo's Bizarre Adventure-style manly men and newerOne Piece-stylechibis."[66]Carlo Santos, also for ANN, praised the action, saying "For over-the-top action, it's hard to beat the thrill of Toriko punching out a swarm of giant insects, or the creep factor of a villain who literally wears another human's skin.", and called the art one of the series' highlights.[67]Reviewing the anime, Santos said "Fans will know what to expect in each adventure: ravenous strongmen flexing their superpowers, ferocious foes being slaughtered by said strongmen, and a rich, imaginative world full of impossibly delicious foods. But the simplicity of Toriko is also its downfall: there are no clever twists in store, the characters don't develop at all, either personally or interpersonally, and even the most calculating villains are just mindless targets waiting to be knocked down one by one. The on-again, off-again animation also does a disservice to the bright colors and creative designs of the series."[68]
