Toriko, Vol. 27

Toriko is a Gourmet Hunter out to eat the world!

In a savage world ruled by the pursuit of the most delicious foods, it's either eat or be eaten! While searching for the tastiest foods imaginable, Gourmet Hunter Toriko travels the world with his bottomless stomach, facing every beast in his way.

It’s fork vs. flame as Toriko and longtime rival Starjun duel for dominance. At first the two seem evenly matched—for every new combination of Fork, Knife and Spiked Punch Toriko conjures with the Ultimate Routine, Starjun has a fire burst or blade to counter. But while their battle rages on, NEO continues to viciously decimate both the IGO and Gourmet Corp. Who will survive to help their side win?
