So you should think a bit more about maybe why this show is so much more PG-ified. Consider the desires of the people funding and selling it, and the "mistakes" they may have learned from in the past.

Maybe because Toriko's blood demonstrations are more graphic then? I mean, we didn't get to see some fine Galala crocodile sinews getting ripped apart in a fountain of blood, but it's not the same as Luffy or Usopp oozing blood out of every pore in their body. Honestly though, I'll just never understand censorship, anything beyond cursing and gore just makes my eyes roll. Remember Sanji's lollipops? And yet Toriko features intravenous administration of the devil snake's drugs! ...ok, bad argument, but still :P

There's more detail in the manga, though the anime does a good job of keeping the information needed. Sure the pacing is pretty fast, though at least the explanation part of this adaptation is done well.
As mentioned, i thought the pacing was a bit fast in this episode, though saying that, it covered a decent amount of material. I guess the director doesn't want a lot of time spent on explanations because this adaptation is obviously aimed at a younger audience, so it needs to appeal to them. I'm fine with that i guess, because there wasn't one part of this episode where i didn't enjoy it. About time Toriko's attire changed. It's been pretty annoying how the anime only had him wearing the orange outfit up until now. Also, it's pretty crazy to believe that we're only at episode 7, and we're upto chapter 23 of the manga.

A Toriko PSP game was announced, and i must say it's looking pretty damn awesome.
