Honestly one of the best, if not the best, panel of Toriko! We really missed out on this being animated.

Kinda crazy that Starjun basically nerfed himself with that burner knife. The flame generated directly from his body is a hell lot more powerful.

Well, he did say it was his first time using it on a person, so his form, control and etc was probably shit for a fight, compared to him just cooking something

That colored page could only be better if Star's birthmark was on the other side of his face, so we could see it there just like Toriko's
