Anime and Manga Differences[]

  • Komatsu didn't get mad at Toriko about the Firecrackers that Komatsu used against the Devil Python, but its probably got changed due the ear plugs that Komatsu dropped in the previous episode that was a filler item.
  • Toriko did successfully knocking a Puffer Whale instead of missing his aim in his first try.
  • Coco did failed in one try to cut a Puffer Whale instead of three, due to the Devil Python injured Coco's arm in the previous episode.
  • The scene where Jiro knocked the other gourmet hunters himself wasn't shown.
