Toriko Collection 1 Review (DVD)
Straight from the pages of Weekly Shonen Jump comes Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro's TORIKO , a series whose premise is so ridiculous, that it really shouldn't be as enjoyable as it is. We enter the "Gourmet Age". A time and place where chefs are heroes and "Gourmet Hunters" battle giant, monstrous creatures purely to create their ultimate menu. If this sounds like a mash-up of Masterchef and Dragon Ball, it's because that's pretty much what it is but frankly, it's far fetched enough that it actually works.
