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 worldwith his bottomless stomach,facing every beast in his way.
Ichiryu, head of the IGO, and Midora, head of the nefarious Gourmet Corp., were once like brothers under the tutelage of Gourmet God Acacia, but now they are bitter rivals locked in a mortal combat of chopsticks vs. tongue. We take a trip hundreds of years into the past to see just what went wrong when Gourmet God Acacias three disciples Ichiryu, Jiro and Midora trained alongside their mentor, Acacia, and God Chef Froese to turn Midora into the monster he is today.
