Dungeon Meshi is a well liked manga, and an adaptation by Studio Trigger is now airing. If you haven’t picked this one up, consider joining us. Both for fun and as a way of contributing to activity on Lemmy.
Episodes are available to stream on Netflix.
A lot happens this week. Falin re-appears, several people die (and get resurrected), and Laios and Shuro have a soft falling out.
Kabru reaps what he has sowed.
Yet another group opts to return to the surface after encountering Laios and his friends, leaving our core quartet to again head even deeper into the dungeon.
They have a mission again. Not to simply save Falin, things have changed, to achieve even that they must conquer the dungeon itself.
Remember not to spoil anything if you’re a manga reader, but feel free to elaborate on tidbits of lore that may not be coming through in the adaptation.
I fucking love Shuro’s “Umai” as he chows down on the onigiri after the fight.
He’s got to be famished, tired, and in pain. Can you imagine how good a simple ball of rice has to taste in that state?
And really, he’s talking about so much more than just the taste. For a moment there he is enjoying life in the simple way that he is so envious of Laios for. By enjoying the shit out of a tasty bite of food.
He said he could never understand Laios. But after the fight, that little moment, is a big deal. It shows that now that they’re actually talking, Shuro and Laios might just be able to get each other after all. Eventually.
