The Jam Grasshopper appeared in 2011 TV series called Toriko. The Jam Grasshopper is a large breed of parasitic grasshopper. It is one of the various types of insects that are produced by Tommyrod.
The Jam Grasshopper is a large insectoid that can grow to be around 35 centimeters in length and reach up to a human's knee in height, and when fully grown it can weigh up to 1.5 kilograms. It looks like a giant grasshopper with a small mouth and sharp teeth around the ridges of its mouth.
It grows to maturity by absorbing nutrients from its host's body. The Jam Grasshopper chooses its prey at random, eating its way in through the anus and laying its eggs in the gut.
As Tommyrod and his team prepared to capture the Century Soup in Ice Hell, he summoned four of his insects, a Jam Grasshopper, an Armor Hoihoi, a Spew Weevil and a Rock Bee, to find and kill any other gourmet hunters that may be searching for the soup. All four beasts were eventually knocked out by Teppei.
