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.


Dear me this episode goes hard! Trigger pulls out all the stops on their signature quality, smear frames and rapid movement all over the place.

Laios and the gang finally fight the Red Dragon. Nuff said.


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.

    Of course Senshi got to have an adamantine knife. Of course. And since it’s an actual cooking knife instead of a weapon, he maintained it properly - unlike his battle axe.

    The battle against the dragon was cool. Not the sort of battle you’d expect from fantasy, but that’s typical for Dungeon Meshi. And their battle plan went wrong, wrong, wrong, then finally right, if I didn’t read the manga I’d expect it to go wrong all the way.

    Overall great episode. It was really fun.

      Mithril. The pans are adamantite.

      Also more Falin flashbacks. We already know but the anime is doing a good job showing off what a precious person Falin is despite her not being around.

        My bad - still, an actual dwarf (like Namari, unlike Senshi) wouldn’t use it for cooking stuff!

        As of now, Falyn reminds me a lot Sousou no Frieren’s Himmel. You never see them directly, only through flashbacks, but you still like them because they’re clearly precious people, by the impact that they have on the memories of the cast.
