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.
The party is now on the third level of the dungeon, and we see the first multi-chapter mini-arc from the manga adapted into single episode. Laios and his party have to get past a room full of magical, moving, hostile suits of armor. How will they pull it off? What will they learn about this monster?
Laios very much wants to know, what living suits of armor taste like. The rest of the gang is pretty sure they’re just normal metal with a spell cast upon them. But are they?
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.
Yup, Trigger is beautifully stretching the legs on the animated medium, not just adapting but adding complementary artistic expression to the source material.
It’s a treat to see a studio apply these things that they’ve learned doing original anime, in ways studios that do only adaptations seldom do.
