Toriko
I've been kind of interested in this series lately, especially since the main character, Toriko, seems like a mix of Goku and Kenshiro.

Originally posted by WikipediaIn a world where the taste and texture of food is extremely important, there exist individuals known as Gourmet Hunters (”üH‰® Bishokuya?) who specialize in the acquisition of rare ingredients and animals. Toriko is one of these hunters and it is his dream to find the most precious foods in the world and create the ultimate dinner course. As one of the most skilled hunters in the world, he is regularly hired by restaurants and the rich to seek out new ingredients and rare animals. A man with inhuman ability, he utilizes his incredible strength and knowledge of the animal kingdom to capture ferocious, evasive, and rare beasts to further his ultimate goal. He is accompanied by a weak and timid chef named Komatsu who, inspired by Toriko's ambition, travels with him to improve his culinary skills and to find rare ingredients. An organization that seeks to take control of the world's entire food supply increases the struggle.
The story begins with Komatsu requesting Toriko to capture a 300 year old garara gator, and by accepting the offer, Toriko begins his journey with Komatsu.
But I hadn't been able to watch this series yet. I hadn't even seen the first episode yet but I have seen a few scenes of it. Still, it's already up there with Dragon Ball and One Piece as one of the big Shonen Jump action series so I gotta check it out!
Still, people like me can't help but watch a series that's main character is basically:
