Toriko's fight with Tommyrod is turning from ridiculous to eye-rolling. The bloodiness of the manga compared to the anime makes it worse, in the sense that the damage is just so over the top. Some may like the over-exaggeration, but I just skimmed through this fight since I already knew what was going to happen. I did like Takimaru's and Match's underdog fights though, even though they had the same over-the-top damage. They were a bit less dragged-out compared to the anime.

And this was the first time the name Joa was mentioned. I can't remember whether this was name-dropped in the anime at all (and I'm not going to trawl through the episodes to check), but I totally had not realised this early connection to Mokkoi.
