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.


The cast grows by 5! Namari is back, for a short while at least… While Marcille isn’t too hot on seeing her again, it’s clear Namari isn’t as callous about leaving the party as Marcy might suspect.

Again, we learn many new details about the world, the Tansus are real experts on the dungeon and they share some tidbits on what makes the place so different to the outside world. Though both them and their adopted twins tend to look down on “normal” adventurers.

Marcille cooks up a stew, new relationships are formed over a meal, and an old friendship gets repaired.


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.

    Next you’ll tell me his cooking knives aren’t normal, either!

    How can he take care of those but not his axe??

      Knives are different. A dull knife is more dangerous than a sharp one. They need maintenance. Axe though? Worst hypothesis he’s strong enough to cause blunt damage to the enemies, it doesn’t need that much maintenance, once in a few decades should be enough.

        But if he knows how to maintain an edge on his knives, why not his axe? Though even if he doesn’t it’ll continue to deal damage as a club just fine, as you say.

        But what if he has never learned how sharpen an edge… because he has never needed to? Again, what are those knives made of!

          I can almost hear Namari screaming at the thought. Across the screen.
