Even Naruto's outfit wasn't such rip off of Goku's...... Every Shonen nowadays is simply Dragon Ball rip off, what a bore....

Yes. The winner is Mister Satan. The race is resolved in the first half episode and the true purpose of it is revealed in the second.Sinestro wrote:They did?

Ah, yes!! And this! When I saw first promo pic of Toriko before it switched with Kai, I thought that it's some weird spinoff of Hokuto no Ken.kei17 wrote:No offense to Toriko fans, but I always see Toriko this way:MCDaveG wrote:Even Naruto's outfit wasn't such rip off of Goku's......

Its because of the art style and the muscles.

Still gonna hate the nerfing they will most likely do to Goku. If they format the special like the Yo Son Goku and Friends Special, then they won't have to nerf Goku. Have Goku be the background guy who steps in if he is needed. He will watch and only help if the enemy is too strong for the other 2 or could cause a problem. I don't have much hope for this since they have Zoro fighting Vegeta which is a landslide in Vegeta's favor.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Pretty sure that was about MCDaveG thinking Torkio was a spinoff of Hokuto no Ken.Saiga wrote:More that his outfit is a complete rip-off of Goku's.

"I like the money it brings in, but Dragon Ball Heroes is the worst. That's actually the real reason I decided to start working on new material. I was afraid Bandai would make something irredeemably stupid like Super Saiyan 4 Broly." - Akira Toriyama, made up interview, 2013.

Interestingly enough, when US Jump had Toriko previews in the magazine I thought more of a DB actor sort of. Read his dialogue like Kyle Hebert's Kamina voice.

Storyboard that was on a clip from NHK according to 2ch.

Bottom panel makes me think of an airport, even though it's probably not that. Maybe it's part of a cruise liner?

Looks like Gokuu and friends are sensing something afoul which interrupts their lunch! O.o
Re: One Hour Toriko/One Piece/DBZ crossover to Air April 7
In my opinion Toriko wears the orange and blue well
So deal with it

Re: One Hour Toriko/One Piece/DBZ crossover to Air April 7
Regarding Toriko's outfit resembling Goku's, well, yeah. It does. The anime tends to put him in that clothing the most, but he wears different things in the manga frequently.

Personally, I like that color scheme best.

Yeah geez. This thread seems more open as a "Toriko bashing" thread.
Has anyone honestly watched or read it? Or are we going on with the "Jump by committee" conspiracy theories?
Like I myself before have said; is it groundbreaking or deep by any means? NO. But it's a really fun and at times inventive series.
People see his outfit, the muscle and "ADVENTURE" and scream "DRAGON BALL" rip-off. Why? Because it took Kai's spot? I thought people have written Kai off already?

Re: One Hour Toriko/One Piece/DBZ crossover to Air April 7
I have read it, the first 2 volumes. The premise has potential, Coco is kinda cool, but nothing else in either volume appealed to me and Toriko himself is so off-putting.

Re: One Hour Toriko/One Piece/DBZ crossover to Air April 7
I've sat through twenty-nine episodes of Toriko. Including a unique concept doesn't stop a generic series from being generic and unentertaining. Execution, characters, and directing do that and such is something Toriko sorely lacks.

Maybe Ian Sinclair as the main guy might make the show better. Did hein your opinion?
