If they cut the Buu saga down by 50% like the others then it will be 49 episodes which will take a year to air so that gives the Toriko manga plenty of time to get ahead of the anime.

By some stroke of luck, Kyle Hebert will be at an anime convention in my area, Taste of Animethon, this coming Friday and Saturday.

I'm considering asking him about Kai's Buu Saga, but he's probably not allowed to talk about it.

No, he's probably not. But you can ask anyway and see how he reacts! :lol:

Hopefully less pissed off than Schemmel and Sabat have been about it recently. I do feel sorry for those guys endlessly being trailed for answers that they have nothing to say about, but yeah - I guess that just comes with their job. I can think of worse work-related baggage.

I wonder if the first episode of Boo arc will be Episode 99 of Dragon Ball Kai, or if it will begin as Episode 1 of a "new" series.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter.

Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

The Data Carddass of Toriko is ending. http://www.carddass.com/torikobjg/

So, the anime is also ending for 99.9% sure.

This is one Hell of a build up to long-suspected news. :P

Although it kind of makes me sad we probably won't see another crossover now. Even if they first one was pretty terrible, save a few cuts from Shida Naotoshi. Eh, whatever. New Dragon Ball stories are always fun.

There is always the chance to see a Dragon Ball x One Piece special, especially he Dragon Ball replaces Toriko (which seems very likely at this point).

Hopefully, Toriko will return after Dragon Ball ends, if Dragon Ball really does replace Toriko.

For those with the ability to read 2ch: has anyone mentioned how many chapters Toriko episode #140 covered? My thanks.

I think the cross-over specials were almost entirely just to boost Toriko's brand. The Dragonball one was also a little bit to promote Battle of Gods.

Sadly I'm thinking that's the case, yeah. Otherwise we would have seen a crossover special prior to Toriko even joining the ranks. Though there were those really neat 'Dream 9' eyecatch things with characters from DB and OP interacting, it'd be cool to see some of those.

Or, you know, Toei could be really super awesome and finally animate Cross Epoch for us. *dreams big*

Thank you so much for this news.

Does this mean Toriko is cancelled ?
