Toriko
oriko (Japanese: トリコ) is a high-energy Action-Adventure, Gourmet, and Shonen manga created by Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro. Serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump from 2008 to 2016, it was one of the magazine's "powerhouses" during the late 2000s, often crossing over with One Piece and Dragon Ball Z due to its shared emphasis on massive appetites and world-shaking battles.
The story is set in the Gourmet Age, an era where the world is obsessed with discovering and tasting the most delicious and rare ingredients. The protagonist, Toriko, is one of the "Four Heavenly Kings"—legendary Gourmet Hunters who possess superhuman strength and "Gourmet Cells." Alongside his timid but talented chef partner, Komatsu, Toriko travels across the globe to complete his "Full Course Menu of Life," battling gargantuan monsters and the shadowy Gourmet Corp. to find the ultimate ingredient: GOD.
