PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide electrophotographic glossy toner having a massive feeling peculiar to a metal as well as a gloss and a method for manufacturing the same. SOLUTION: The electrophotographic glossy toner is obtained by dispersing, in a binder resin, a coloring component composed essentially of yellow, magenta and cyan colorants and a pearl pigment formed by covering a flaky inorganic crystal substrate with the thin layer of titanium dioxide. The method for manufacturing the electrophotographic glossy toner comprises a first step of melt-kneading at least a binder resin and yellow, magenta and cyan colorants and then carrying out pulverization and classification to prepare toner base particles, and a second step of melt-kneading at least the toner base particles and the pearl pigment formed by covering the flaky inorganic crystal substrate with the thin layer of titanium dioxide and then carrying out pulverization and classification.
