    It doesn't need a self-insert protagonist because we basically follow a wacky D&D-like scenario. The whole point is to follow the antics and critical fails of that group like you'd read a summary of a playergroup's previous sessions. It's not about the players but discovering the world as their characters explore the dungeon, the same way you'd blindly accept to play a "one shot homebrew story" from a GM friend and it ends up becoming a whole campain because why the heck not?

Dunmeshi feels like what could be somebody writing down their D&D campaign.

    Laios also has legit trauma surrounding hunger, because it was hunger pains which distracted him and lead to falin being eaten. There are even a few scenes where lairs is walking and then his stomach grumbles and he remembers his sister pushing him out of the way until a party member cracks a joke about his stomach bringing him back to the present.

    I feel like Dungeon Meshi is a masterpiece. It's not just about food but about ecosystems and about desire to live. Imagine if a person had zero appetite, that person can't survive or have any life goals anymore. Marcille is so multi-faceted, she's not just an "every day girl" but a freaking badass. I love her.

      Faraway Paladin. A actual traditional Knight Errant/White Knight tale. Note not actually an Isekai as the author was required to make it Isekai to get it published but main character remembers nothing of past life and thus modern knowlage is not applied in the stories world it only gives a bit more motivation though emotion and as recarnation and rebirth the Isekai of a Goddess it ties in. But think of it as tradtional recarnation no memory of the past life.
      Has touches of Lord of the Rings
      Oh not the feminist term White Knight for a man who tries to dominate a woman by always being there to protect her. No original as in the female Whtie Knight who in fiction was a Paladin for Charlemagne. This guy male but like the White Knight of tales they out to save the weak no matter what they look like or gender and they are chaste by nature only saluting or tipping the hat like the White Hat of Western to the maiden and riding out of her life and into the Sunset.
      The fact that traditional tales are in a time where women were discriminated in is the only way they are discriminated against.

    It's amazing that ten years ago we started reading this small Manga and thought it'd never get an adaptation or the love it deserves
    And now it's finally here and I see it getting the love it deserves, it feels so validating
    The manga gets just so good later on, especially as we learn more about the dungeon and why it was created, Senshi's backstory, the politics regarding the dungeon and how DEEP it gets about what "eating" truly is, hell you haven't even met Shuro properly or the fifth character that joins the group that tons of people consider to be their favorite of the WHOLE STORY
    What's amazing is that Ryoko Kui, the woman behind all of this, started writing Dungeon Meshi as a love letter to Western RPGs, games like D&D, Baldur's Gate or Divinity Original Sin is what got her into the genre, and now to see the love people are throwing at her passion project that started as her way to show love to the fantasy classics we grew up with?

      And in fact according to Dungeon Meshi lore Fallin had extreme affection and to Laios her brother. If Laios wasn't some Nerd and autistic guy, this story would have gone the incest route.​@hectorrodriguezgonzalez8938

    Also, just a little tidbit.
    Not only the animation was done by Studio Trigger, but the music was composed by none other than Yasunori Mitsuda, the legendary composer of ... Chrono Trigger.
    That's a lot of Triggers to trigger our appetite for this show.
    Also, if you want to discover another fantastic manga with a weekly cooking monsters show, I highly recommend Taku Kuwabara's Drifting Dragons (yes, another DD).
    It's basically Dungeon Meshi, but in the sky with flying "dragons" instead of monsters, and in a steampunk world instead of medieval, with a graphic style EXTREMELY inspired by Miyazaki circa Nausicaä (the manga, not the movie). And it's freakkin FANTASTIC ! One of the absolute best mangas I've read in these past 5 years, both in terms of art than characters and worldbuilding.
    I wish the anime was at least 1/10th as good as the manga (it's just generic-ass Netflix CG cell shading, sadly, which completely destroys the visual charm of the manga).

    6:36 you'll soon realise that dungeon meshi is ABSOLUTELY NOT just a show about cooking monsters, it gets dark with everything that happens like the resolve of marcille about not wanting to be alone which leads her to become the dungeon lord and almost dying, the true desires of laios regarding monsters which also leads him to become the dungeon lord (to save marcille too though) and literal demons that come from another dimension and they reside in some dungeons, have an entire squad of elves dedicated to kill and prevent them from surfacing and preventing what would be the apocalypse and also that they are a hive mind trying to fulfill their only desire since the first time they tried it which is literally eating the desire of any living being, no matter if it is a plant or an insect or whatever living being they find :p
    In conclusion it's a very good anime and even more beautiful and cool manga. So for those who aren't very sure about what to about it, it's a 100% recommended. Y'all really need to read the manda and the anime too is specially funny 💕
