@@kylesmith564 it's only a "lie" because people are so distanced to the eating part irl. People cook to eat, and to eat is to sustain life by taking others
The first half of the story makes you believe Dungeon Meshi is about cooking. The second half makes you realise its actually really about EATING. From something civilized and comfy, to a base act that is instinctive and primal. Anime-only watchers are in for a BIG treat, and I'm glad this anime has been attracting a lot of eyes.
I'm still not sure about that part...But pieces of the imagery that were here from the early episodes starts to click together now that they mentionned a certain emprisoned creature in recent episodes
I'm anime only (atm) but considering that they're eating for survival (instead of pure cuisine) and they're still thinking about what is "acceptable to eat" and is sometimes hidden in a gag, it seems like it's just a matter of time before either survival becomes priority (serious tone) or something very dark will be hidden within a humor.
I mean, knowing there will be consequences but don't know what it will be in details then decided to do it anyway is WORSE, don't you think? What, Marcille thought they will be lucky and get away scot free? Certainly she is not THAT unwise.
The tone shifts feel so natural because a lot of the comedy is rooted on how raw nature is, so instead of feeling edgy the blood and serious topics feel more like a matter of fact about the world. Great video!

@@To-To What he meant to say is that the anime is about "eat or be eaten" and, as the story progresses, you discover that it is in more ways than one.
Wait until you learn what it's really about. Probably as part of a reveal at the end of S1 or earlier S2 if my memory of the manga's pacing serves correctly.
I can't believe some people call Marcille selfish and mistaken for using spell on Falin. Like, doing that to save your friend from eternity of torment of being bound to the dungeon is peak selflessness. Marcille knew it would land her into hot water and possibly ruin her life and ambitions, but she valued another person's wellbeing enough to make that sacrifice.
Marc was selfish, that’s part of her development. She used it with good intentions, but those same intentions were just as much for her too, of not wanting to say goodbye and because of her own fear of death. All the characters are like this, which is a good thing because it makes them flawed and feel more human.
@@To-To I think her close mindedness was a greater flaw, if a person's essentially only friend (*or more if tumblr's right*) could be brought back, most would take the odds head on.
I think it was both selfish and selfless. Selfless because of what you mentioned, but selfless because death is a natural part of life (though the state of the dungeon is a valid point). Let’s not forget that Laios shares the burden of this choice because he consented to the ritual
Just because you did something for selfish reasons doesn’t mean you did something wrong. It just means you did it because you wanted to. But it also doesn’t mean you know what you’re doing or what consequences will come from your actions.
Laios accepting that he has become schizophrenic until Isutzumi starts to notice his "visions" as well was probably the moment i understood that Laios is actually the most sane
That too. I didn’t point it out because I would have yapped too long without a joke, and the sword lended itself better to one. The little thing trying to square up was adorable tho lol
@@milkman4407 typically I’d agree, but in this particular instance it was talking past the point. I like to leave things visually represented too, in this case by showing that clip earlier on, same way the show would. Bringing it up would have been talking past the point as it isn’t necessary to call out every little thing imo
The best trick they pull, and they've done it several times, is present something completely innocuous that you don't find out until much later was pivotal to the entire story. "I'm just going into a few paintings for some wacky hijinks, annnnnd now the dungeon lord has a grudge against me because I showed up at all of his important life moment because it was basically time travel."
Exactly the kind of thing that I found jarring. I get that it's trying to emulate the randomness of D&D but honestly, that they used the painting thing in such a big way later on almost felt.... cheap? How is it that no other adventurer before Laios has gone into the painting, ever? If the mad mage created the dungeon, would they not be exactly aware of how the damn paintings work, and thus know Laios literally just stumbled into the main plot? I don't know, it's a great show, but I would not call the writing it's strong point.
@@Clovericious I dont think it's ever mentioned that only laios party stumbled on those paintings. It's even mentioned that majority of adventurers sucked into paintings tend to die from starvation or madness. And the dungeon lord did notice laios stumbled in those paintings that's why he's pissed. Tbh I view living paintings as nothing but creative way to make a flashback to flesh out the lore and the characters. Other media tend to just tell not show backstories or overuse the blur to flashback like in frieren. But I find dungeon meshi more creative with it by maximizing their fantasy setting like the nightmare clams, living paintings, kabru basically solving long winded autobiography, magical lion showing your desires, etc
@@Clovericiousas for how the lunatic magician doesn't know about the paintings. Because the dungeon is probably influenced by his mind, the paintings could be physical manifestations of the magician's memories. Like he remembers all of these events in the paintings, which is why the paintings are in the dungeon. He's the "lunatic" magician implying a level of obsession and of course madness. He may very well be reliving these events in his head as if he were actually there, which creates a physical place in the dungeon that even others can access, and explains why he remembers people from the paintings. Whoever enters the painting literally becomes a part of his memory, or relives it with him, and laios could very well have come across the real lunatic magician in the paintings. Literally reliving his memories, and possibly explaining why he holds a grudge in the first place. He hates that someone intruded upon his mind, and probably killed everyone else who entered for similar reasons. If there are deeper reasons for his hatred of Laios I haven't seen any beyond the fact the magician remembers him.
I disagree that Marcile made a selfish "mistake" the show makes it very clear that death inside the dungeon is not permanent. and though people call what she did "dark magic" its also explained that this is really just a spooky name given to magic that is only forbidden because people dont understand how it works. its not inherently evil, and the only reason that it failed the way it did, is because something more sinister is afoot in the dungeon. Shes following the rules of the dungeon, and is using magic that she is one of the foremost experts on.
The “dark magic” spell probably would have worked out fine if not for the interference of the mad mage’s spell to resurrect the dragon. Possibly every creature they have ever eaten could have a similar connection…maybe it is a bad idea to eat the monsters in this dungeon! This possibility makes the story so much darker! But I can’t say they are being selfish…they are desperate to save their friend and are ironically in trouble because they care so much they are making desperate risky moves that maybe are skewing their morality…is that growth or corruption? Such good writing!
Suppose thats why leaving the dungeon in the end is what makes them appreciate life more, the dungeon's nature is to make it so death doesn't stick like what Marcelle always explains to people like Senshi
@@captainkelley6450 Realistically it is only cause of the mad mage, the dragon was dead and just meat, much like how they say this can be done with pig meat, it being resurrected was all on him and unforseen
@@captainkelley6450 Actually no SPOILER ALLERT!SPOILER ALLERT!SPOILER ALLERT! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . SPOILER ALLERT!SPOILER ALLERT!SPOILER ALLERT! Near the end is explained that things which has been consumed cannot be resurrected Felyn still had the Bones, so there was still something of her This is why at the end they made a banquet making everyone consume only the Dragon's Parts And destroyed the Bones The only reason Felyn is still soulbounded to the Dragon at the end is because some of the Dragon's Flesh where still left on Felyn's Legs But because Felyn has more mass in the Hybrid Body then she is the one in control
Wouldn’t be the first time an anime lied to me. “Attack on Titan”, “Madoka Magica”, and “Magical Girl Raising Project”. And these are just three that shocked me the most.
I gotta give props for actually coming back and revisiting it once the anime had more time to breathe to give a much better take on it! I especially loved that twist that you incoporated in the video, in the same vein of the show, of pretending you thought the show did a complete heel turn into grimdark before coming back and explaining that the real strenght of the show is the tonal juggling between these two, seemingly incompatible elements! The first few weeks of this show had it be completely overshadowed, which is how the manga was at first, but the anime had a lot less time to actually catch the audience to have the attention needed for a season two, but I'm glad that the moment the manga exploded, the anime did so aswell (the Red Dragon of course). Props to the anime comunity for demonstrating that they CAN stick through a show's slow start!
i was pleasantly surprised how the tone changed so well, especially with its genre. theres only a few stories that executes this perfectly ill read the manga soon after the anime first season is finished ❤
Came for a positive Anime review who appreciates the Anime and Characters, but stayed because of your editing skills and beautiful voice. Can't believe you have only this many subscribers. Keep it up. I hope your videos get the attention they deserve!
The resurrection magic helps a lot in keeping the tone light. It allows such a dark scene to happen, while reducing the consequences of the monster attack. The audience still feels panicked during the fight, because the party will pretty much stay dead if everyone dies, but it can return to comedic once everyone gets resurrected.
To me it just removed all meaning from the character deaths. What's the point in horrifically slaughtering a bunch of characters only to resurrect them and then make inappropriate jokes about it to boot? This kind of shit works in a D&D session, but in a coherent story it just feels unnecessary. If you're gonna kill off characters, make it stick and make their death mean something.
@@Clovericiousbecause there is no "character death" yet apart from Falin, whose reversing of her death led to a terrible backfire. It's been stated or at least hinted early on (or half way, i forgot) that death can be reversed in the dungeon. Meaning that death isn't a card to play yet as long as Marcille or any other magic-user was still around, and that is made very clear. However, this doesn't take away from the intensity and fear of dying. The characters are often shocked and scared when someone dies because why tf wouldn't you be? They have such natural reactions to someone dying right before them while still keeping the information that a) they can help the deceased as long as they deal with... b)... the threat that's right in front. But just becayse they can be brought back doesn't mean that person dying doesn't mean anything since that's one person less to help, and also one more body to make sure doesn't get grinded down to ensure the soul doesn't hsve a body to return to. I think it's safe to make something a "character death" when they're truly out of the picture, the cause of the death and the people reacting will know very well that they're gone. But none of the characters in the dungeon react this way because death is reversable. But just because they know death is reversable, doesn't mean they'll just tank blow after blow. If everyone dies, including your healer, their souls will have to wait until someone else revives them, and who knows how long that may take or if the next griup of adventurers would even want to do that.
I do love this manga and anime and enjoy it greatly. and I have seen a video talking polar opposites about these characters and how they feels like even thought there is stakes to them having to find his sister the group takes their sweet time getting down to the lower floors and spend quite a bit of time enjoying and eating on the way down rather then having laser focus determination to get there as soon as possible. The argument I have against that is stated by the characters themselves that rushing and making haste can lead to mistakes and not properly eating and getting rest can leave them weakened to face what ever they encounter is ahead of them. I agree that taking their time is smart and important it, though does slightly mess with the urgency of getting to his sister before what they assume is the time limit of her body getting digested by the dragon.
They actually end up making great time. I dunno what video you’re referring to, but the characters themselves state that only took them a week or so. It took much longer last time. I’d say the other person wasn’t paying attention, but they definitely do dick around so I can’t fault them. Not to mention death is treatable in this world, so realistically the characters would naturally be callous towards it even if they know they shouldn’t.
Originally I also thought it was odd they had such a casual air and lack of urgency, but this definitely gets explained as we go on with death being more of an inconvenience to experienced adventurers in this dungeon. Which despite their goofiness, all the party members are experienced, if not any sort of master or such. They've been around the dungeon and have almost certainly all died multiple times. That and all their knowledge about the dragon suggested they should have had the time. I feel they could have done a bit better portraying the death thing sooner, but I feel like it all makes sense in setting as we get to learn more about it.
I for some reason recalled the hyphen every time I wrote it, but I kept second guessing myself and thought “I think it’s actually one word”. Turns out I was right lol
I thought the show was about irony. The journey was seemingly to save Falin, but the end of the manga revealed that Lios' true desire was to be around monsters, which he is forever separated from via the Lions curse. The irony is that everybody had a happy ending except Lios, whom while worshipped as a hero king, is eternally miserable without monsters in his life.
1:40's "The same way you can be passionate about..." Triggered my ad read fight or flight and I was hovering to skip forward when I realized there wasn't going to be a sponsor there
This has apparently happened to many people lol. I'm not big enough to get sponsors yet, but if I did I'd likely try to integrate them better than that, like if it were for Skillshare I'd have done in when talking about Senshi's skills he hones, brought up how you could do the same, and what it'd mean for the cast of DM if they had something similar, etc. Basically, just making it make sense to be there. I don't like when they interrupt the flow of the videos tbh
I feel like it’s that one-time special anime/manga, one that’s really good, but is so good that the entirety of its uniqueness and qualities are so rare that there’ll probably not be another one in it Also, I like the small detail that, when starting to describe how the scene changes from mostly comedic to mostly dark, that part starts just after the half way mark in the vid
Thanks! I spent a little extra time on it than normal to make sure it switched up at the right time and flowed well. Even changed my presentation a bit lol
Yeah those dark gritty moments just feel that more impactful because they clash with the rest of the show... Just like a good dish uses contrast to be tastier.
Look up BlueSechi, a channel which does fan content for the game Blue Archive. I think the anime girl gif originally appeared in the video "Dont't draw a bomb" but the version of it here probably comes from "Tea-bagging Momoi Green Screen" which, as the name implies, is there to help other people re-use the meme. Should be about 20 seconds into the video. Pretty sure the squid is unrelated to the original
The squid is indeed an original inclusion based off the giant squid they fight in the anime. I had no idea there was a green screen version tho. That would've saved me time lol
Most characters have an underlying reason for how they act. We’ve gotten everyone’s reasons but his, som I’m sure we’ll be getting it soon. He likely lost people close to him due to not being able to provide.
I'll never get over the scene of Marcille casting THE BIG SPELL. It's such a beautifully horrifying shot. Marcille, who is normally very well kept and clean is barefoot, covered in blood, hair is flowing wildly at crazy angles, has got some gnarly eyebags going on, and she has the look of being in some sort of evil trance. Just her appearance alone lets the viewer know: "Oh...this is not a good spell".
I'm ngl, finding out about that scene when the gray hair girl turns into some kinda bird and turning things around kinda got me sold into watching this! I had to say to myself, "Is this really that same anime abouting cooking?" 😂
Coming to this after reading the manga once i got caught up with the anime, this series is WILD and i dont regret it at all. Privledge of the living indeed.
This anime is the best way to describe how dnd plays you learn as u go never know what’s going to come next good or bad and the best time in dnd campaign is when your all at camp or in the pub having fun around food and drinks
that's a good revieuw. the twist in the revieuw is a big spoiler for those who didn't watch it. but your slot does tell them to keep watching, as nothing really changed about the show.
I'm normally hesitant about heavily spoiling things which is why I put it so much later into the video. It was also already plastered all over the internet so I figured most have probably already seen it. I know I got spoiled on it before actually getting to that episode lol
@@To-To it has been al over the internet for the wrong reasons unfortuanly. people who just want to complain, but never consume the content, i hate those people, acting like fans, but never careing to actualy get invested in the hobby. i enjoyed the series, defenetly waiting for season 2, but not a fan of the series. it was a enjoying watch.
Hey nice to see you again. Hope you’re doing well with life and what not, and whatever else is happening irl. But yeah, this one is something I’m not too familiar with, I read a little bit of the manga and I know how it ends with the dungeon and Laois with everything, and I know pretty much the more important and crucial plot points but I really haven’t watched to much of it aside from the important and food/cooking bits. But besides that, this clearly has become a classic fantasy series, that touches upon fantasy realistically and makes it out into its own unique and fantastical thing. It doesn’t feel like some dumb, generic run of the mill fantasy but an actual living and breathing world with many, many factors that play into it’s most central theme being the dungeon and it’s monsters. Similar to something like ghibili and their ways of introducing the wild and supernatural. The cooking stuff is clearly the most central thing of the show and a lot of what they cook is really impressive and more noticeably feels more like how one would actually prep a monster for cooking. Despite some of it being quite literally out of this world like the ice cream but the way they portray it makes it look like an actual dish that I would gladly try if it’s safe enough. Also a lot of other people have talked about this show, it’s messages, it’s portray, of fantasy and more particularly it’s main guy Laois with his whole autistic, pretty not normal behavior. Because some of the stuff he does is autistic, weird and out there, and the series even tells you it with his scuffle with his “friend”. Which only serves to make him a more interesting and nuanced character in a place so already filled with monsters and supernatural crap. As well as of course more proved to surviving it. With some major things down the line going to happen because of his personality and how it’s going to tie into the entire dungeon all together and how he’s going to escalate things to their fullest extreme. Nothing much other to say than that. I haven’t watched the anime, I did read the manga at the ending, and I know the basic of what’s happening plot and theme wise. But other than that that’s all I gotta say about it. I hope you and anyone you know are still enjoying it and that it remains memorable as people say it is. Safe to say it’s a really good fantasy series, and right up there with the likes of Frieren or other well crafted fantasy stories that are not isekai and isekai alone. So like I said, I hope you are well and healthy, that the channel is growing better and that most of all you are still content on doing more content. That’s it and hope to see you soon!
I’m doing great and the channel has been doing better than ever. Thanks for asking, Steven! I recommend a full watch of the anime if you ever get the chance as it can be pretty funny, but I’m excited to see the future developments you mentioned! Though I’ll likely have to wait for a season 2 for that lol
People keep saying it’s about eating and cooking, but it’s more about enjoying survival and that the lowest lows of humanity know no bounds, our society forgets humans are animalistic by thinking that we are are above yet we are still on the food chain
Its funny because the only thing this story did that elevated it above others is that it actually explored the themes present and wasnt afraid to handle consequence even if it meant changing the course of the plot
This is both a good thing and bad thing. I’ve definitely felt that way before though lol. Where you’re like “shit I gotta coma back to this later before he spoils me, this shit sounds gas”
I'm not sure where the anime is compared to the manga, I have finished the manga though, I will only say that the entire thing is indeed about cooking. Spoilers ahead To save his sister they end up having to eat the majority of the draconic part of her, some other stuff happens, he ends up defeating the sorcerer, and this is indeed a fantasy world where prophecies become real.
Best part of the world for me is that the world is based around reality but with monsters, opposite to others that centers around the magic aspect. Not that I don’t like that but it’s just refreshing with this
I did one on the first couple eps like a year or two ago, but I dunno if I'll bother to catch up and cover the new stuff. Haven't seen many people talking about it.
The real lie was making us think living armors were just here as "regular mobs" Same for that one second in OP1 showing a creature that never appeared in that part of the story "not being that important" Or even a shot shown in the video showing some "random" statue in the background "just being part of the decor" The forshadowing in retrospect is insane, so many pieces of a puzzle that fit together when you pay attention...Can't wait to discover what it leads to! That show will make for a great matathon on 2nd viewing that's for sure
I actually don't know what you're referencing for the monsters in the OP and statue, but the foreshadowing is very well done. The author does a great job at seeding it into the character arcs, and Trigger steps it up by littering it throughout the visuals.
@@To-To Oh, you'll understand soon enough. I didn't notice the statue while watching the anime normally, it just so happen to be in a spot that gave me a huge "wait a minute..." moment watching the video. I won't spoil where tho, that would ruin the treasure hunt for other people reading this. ^^" As for the OP you only see part of it, not the entire thing, but once you pay attention it should be noticiable as well.
In reality i get an elf turning to necromancy when they choose adventuring because they are odd balls so cannot adventure with other elves and they easily outlive all other races, so all friends die and other elves make it to real and embarassing. So the only way to not go it alone is to bring your friends back but they cant unless they turn to necromancy.
The basis for me reading the manga when it came to cooking and eating dungeon monsters was when it came to full circle to the lion demon , was infact how the dungeon would sought of cook the individual desires then consuming it a really twisted take
The anime is about cooking, which includes the preparation with ingredients and the eventual eating. Some eat monsters, some eat humans, and some other like to eat intangible things like dreams and wishes.
It's about eating. Then there will be the theme of you are what you eat. That's why I'm the latest episode there are some focus on people on people not wanting to eat monsters
This anime is not lying in any way. It is consistent as far as Ive seen. If you want an anime that is lying to you, watch Made in Abyss. You'll feel like suing them, but youll need the money for the therapy
I wouldn't have watched a cooking anime or a light-hearted adventure - it's just not my thing. Yet, I watched it, because my brother recommended it, and he has the taste for darker and more mature manga. After the first few episodes, I understood that I liked it - its main character cast, its theme, its humour, its worldbuilding. But only when things escalated (around episode 15, I guess), I became enamoured with this title! Now, I'm reading the manga, and it's insanely intriguing!
While they party may look quite goofy and weird, they are in fact quite skilled and experienced adventurers, which can be seen by the fact that they have the ability to take on and defeat dragons, and not just by luck, but by skill and teamwork.

Nom's are a big deal.

"I'm just going into a few paintings for some wacky hijinks, annnnnd now the dungeon lord has a grudge against me because I showed up at all of his important life moment because it was basically time travel."
As a sadistic DM myself, I knew it instantly.
Theres also the mushroom that might have been growing legs which is either a red herring or aa plot point later down the line
Exactly the kind of thing that I found jarring. I get that it's trying to emulate the randomness of D&D but honestly, that they used the painting thing in such a big way later on almost felt.... cheap? How is it that no other adventurer before Laios has gone into the painting, ever? If the mad mage created the dungeon, would they not be exactly aware of how the damn paintings work, and thus know Laios literally just stumbled into the main plot? I don't know, it's a great show, but I would not call the writing it's strong point.
@@Clovericious I dont think it's ever mentioned that only laios party stumbled on those paintings. It's even mentioned that majority of adventurers sucked into paintings tend to die from starvation or madness. And the dungeon lord did notice laios stumbled in those paintings that's why he's pissed. Tbh I view living paintings as nothing but creative way to make a flashback to flesh out the lore and the characters. Other media tend to just tell not show backstories or overuse the blur to flashback like in frieren. But I find dungeon meshi more creative with it by maximizing their fantasy setting like the nightmare clams, living paintings, kabru basically solving long winded autobiography, magical lion showing your desires, etc
@@Clovericiousas for how the lunatic magician doesn't know about the paintings. Because the dungeon is probably influenced by his mind, the paintings could be physical manifestations of the magician's memories. Like he remembers all of these events in the paintings, which is why the paintings are in the dungeon. He's the "lunatic" magician implying a level of obsession and of course madness. He may very well be reliving these events in his head as if he were actually there, which creates a physical place in the dungeon that even others can access, and explains why he remembers people from the paintings.
Whoever enters the painting literally becomes a part of his memory, or relives it with him, and laios could very well have come across the real lunatic magician in the paintings. Literally reliving his memories, and possibly explaining why he holds a grudge in the first place. He hates that someone intruded upon his mind, and probably killed everyone else who entered for similar reasons. If there are deeper reasons for his hatred of Laios I haven't seen any beyond the fact the magician remembers him.
I disagree that Marcile made a selfish "mistake" the show makes it very clear that death inside the dungeon is not permanent. and though people call what she did "dark magic" its also explained that this is really just a spooky name given to magic that is only forbidden because people dont understand how it works. its not inherently evil, and the only reason that it failed the way it did, is because something more sinister is afoot in the dungeon. Shes following the rules of the dungeon, and is using magic that she is one of the foremost experts on.
I thought it was because the spell is a bit too indiscriminate and tend to bring back more than intended?
The “dark magic” spell probably would have worked out fine if not for the interference of the mad mage’s spell to resurrect the dragon. Possibly every creature they have ever eaten could have a similar connection…maybe it is a bad idea to eat the monsters in this dungeon! This possibility makes the story so much darker! But I can’t say they are being selfish…they are desperate to save their friend and are ironically in trouble because they care so much they are making desperate risky moves that maybe are skewing their morality…is that growth or corruption? Such good writing!
Suppose thats why leaving the dungeon in the end is what makes them appreciate life more, the dungeon's nature is to make it so death doesn't stick like what Marcelle always explains to people like Senshi
@@captainkelley6450 Realistically it is only cause of the mad mage, the dragon was dead and just meat, much like how they say this can be done with pig meat, it being resurrected was all on him and unforseen

Near the end is explained that things which has been consumed cannot be resurrected
Felyn still had the Bones, so there was still something of her
This is why at the end they made a banquet making everyone consume only the Dragon's Parts
And destroyed the Bones
The only reason Felyn is still soulbounded to the Dragon at the end is because some of the Dragon's Flesh where still left on Felyn's Legs
But because Felyn has more mass in the Hybrid Body then she is the one in control
The ability to flip between Silly and serious is practically a staple of Trigger
That’s all on the author who hit it out of the park.
@@rubbadubba7153 trigger is an excellent compliment because of thr excellent work of the author
Wouldn’t be the first time an anime lied to me.
“Attack on Titan”, “Madoka Magica”, and “Magical Girl Raising Project”. And these are just three that shocked me the most.
I gotta give props for actually coming back and revisiting it once the anime had more time to breathe to give a much better take on it! I especially loved that twist that you incoporated in the video, in the same vein of the show, of pretending you thought the show did a complete heel turn into grimdark before coming back and explaining that the real strenght of the show is the tonal juggling between these two, seemingly incompatible elements!
The first few weeks of this show had it be completely overshadowed, which is how the manga was at first, but the anime had a lot less time to actually catch the audience to have the attention needed for a season two, but I'm glad that the moment the manga exploded, the anime did so aswell (the Red Dragon of course). Props to the anime comunity for demonstrating that they CAN stick through a show's slow start!
WE HAVE TO COOK!
Annnd we're back!
@ahri-theninetailedfox3535 unfortunately we wont be back for a while 😓
Obvious reason is to survive the excuse just to make the series continue for a lot longer and end on a cliffhanger.
Honestly those Breaking Bad jokes were the best ones, I loved that. xD
i was pleasantly surprised how the tone changed so well, especially with its genre. theres only a few stories that executes this perfectly
ill read the manga soon after the anime first season is finished ❤
Came for a positive Anime review who appreciates the Anime and Characters, but stayed because of your editing skills and beautiful voice.
Can't believe you have only this many subscribers.
Keep it up. I hope your videos get the attention they deserve!
No ones ever complimented my voice before 🥹
The resurrection magic helps a lot in keeping the tone light. It allows such a dark scene to happen, while reducing the consequences of the monster attack. The audience still feels panicked during the fight, because the party will pretty much stay dead if everyone dies, but it can return to comedic once everyone gets resurrected.
To me it just removed all meaning from the character deaths. What's the point in horrifically slaughtering a bunch of characters only to resurrect them and then make inappropriate jokes about it to boot? This kind of shit works in a D&D session, but in a coherent story it just feels unnecessary. If you're gonna kill off characters, make it stick and make their death mean something.
@@Clovericiousbecause there is no "character death" yet apart from Falin, whose reversing of her death led to a terrible backfire. It's been stated or at least hinted early on (or half way, i forgot) that death can be reversed in the dungeon. Meaning that death isn't a card to play yet as long as Marcille or any other magic-user was still around, and that is made very clear. However, this doesn't take away from the intensity and fear of dying. The characters are often shocked and scared when someone dies because why tf wouldn't you be? They have such natural reactions to someone dying right before them while still keeping the information that a) they can help the deceased as long as they deal with... b)... the threat that's right in front. But just becayse they can be brought back doesn't mean that person dying doesn't mean anything since that's one person less to help, and also one more body to make sure doesn't get grinded down to ensure the soul doesn't hsve a body to return to.
I think it's safe to make something a "character death" when they're truly out of the picture, the cause of the death and the people reacting will know very well that they're gone. But none of the characters in the dungeon react this way because death is reversable. But just because they know death is reversable, doesn't mean they'll just tank blow after blow. If everyone dies, including your healer, their souls will have to wait until someone else revives them, and who knows how long that may take or if the next griup of adventurers would even want to do that.
I hope trigger actually drops a second season because literally everything they do is known for being one season only

It's the most D&D-ish anime I've EVER seen
I do love this manga and anime and enjoy it greatly.
and I have seen a video talking polar opposites about these characters and how they feels like even thought there is stakes to them having to find his sister the group takes their sweet time getting down to the lower floors and spend quite a bit of time enjoying and eating on the way down rather then having laser focus determination to get there as soon as possible.
The argument I have against that is stated by the characters themselves that rushing and making haste can lead to mistakes and not properly eating and getting rest can leave them weakened to face what ever they encounter is ahead of them.
I agree that taking their time is smart and important it, though does slightly mess with the urgency of getting to his sister before what they assume is the time limit of her body getting digested by the dragon.
They actually end up making great time. I dunno what video you’re referring to, but the characters themselves state that only took them a week or so. It took much longer last time. I’d say the other person wasn’t paying attention, but they definitely do dick around so I can’t fault them.
Not to mention death is treatable in this world, so realistically the characters would naturally be callous towards it even if they know they shouldn’t.
Originally I also thought it was odd they had such a casual air and lack of urgency, but this definitely gets explained as we go on with death being more of an inconvenience to experienced adventurers in this dungeon. Which despite their goofiness, all the party members are experienced, if not any sort of master or such. They've been around the dungeon and have almost certainly all died multiple times. That and all their knowledge about the dragon suggested they should have had the time. I feel they could have done a bit better portraying the death thing sooner, but I feel like it all makes sense in setting as we get to learn more about it.
I wasn't expecting a shout-out but it DID make me laugh, only one issue, my name's one word, other than that, no notes 10/10 would sub again! XD
I for some reason recalled the hyphen every time I wrote it, but I kept second guessing myself and thought “I think it’s actually one word”. Turns out I was right lol
@@To-To No worries at all, not gonna stop supporting you over a hyphen XD
0:07 i am more concerned over "White powder (unidentified) ----- Lots" than what they are actually cooking here
I thought the show was about irony.
The journey was seemingly to save Falin, but the end of the manga revealed that Lios' true desire was to be around monsters, which he is forever separated from via the Lions curse.
The irony is that everybody had a happy ending except Lios, whom while worshipped as a hero king, is eternally miserable without monsters in his life.
this
1:40's "The same way you can be passionate about..." Triggered my ad read fight or flight and I was hovering to skip forward when I realized there wasn't going to be a sponsor there
This has apparently happened to many people lol. I'm not big enough to get sponsors yet, but if I did I'd likely try to integrate them better than that, like if it were for Skillshare I'd have done in when talking about Senshi's skills he hones, brought up how you could do the same, and what it'd mean for the cast of DM if they had something similar, etc.
Basically, just making it make sense to be there. I don't like when they interrupt the flow of the videos tbh
I feel like it’s that one-time special anime/manga, one that’s really good, but is so good that the entirety of its uniqueness and qualities are so rare that there’ll probably not be another one in it
Also, I like the small detail that, when starting to describe how the scene changes from mostly comedic to mostly dark, that part starts just after the half way mark in the vid
The resurrection would have been fine if not for the curse the dragon had on it... Probably... Maybe...
I just remembered we are NOT getting Hot Succubus Milk YET
NOOOOOOOOO
but we will in the confirmed 2nd season!
This was really funny, and the pacing was perfect!
Thanks! I spent a little extra time on it than normal to make sure it switched up at the right time and flowed well. Even changed my presentation a bit lol
8:20 minor manga spoilers
The rabbit chapters perfectly exemplifies this I've never gone from scared to laughing to sad so quickly before
Will that be a S1 or S2 episode?
@@To-To season 2 for sure
"fix that" god damn that was smooth
Yeah those dark gritty moments just feel that more impactful because they clash with the rest of the show... Just like a good dish uses contrast to be tastier.
I noticed how you shifted at the videos exact half way mark
Just like the show :D
8:20 FMA comes to mind
As in something that also does both? I agree.
Masterpiece. Dungeon Meshi is a fuckin masterpiece.
2:55 I NEED THAT MEME
I giveth thee:
/watch?v=fBx9FVtIVoQ
Look up BlueSechi, a channel which does fan content for the game Blue Archive.
I think the anime girl gif originally appeared in the video "Dont't draw a bomb" but the version of it here probably comes from "Tea-bagging Momoi Green Screen" which, as the name implies, is there to help other people re-use the meme. Should be about 20 seconds into the video.
Pretty sure the squid is unrelated to the original
The squid is indeed an original inclusion based off the giant squid they fight in the anime. I had no idea there was a green screen version tho. That would've saved me time lol
Senshi is obsessive to cook because of.......people will know it.
Most characters have an underlying reason for how they act. We’ve gotten everyone’s reasons but his, som I’m sure we’ll be getting it soon. He likely lost people close to him due to not being able to provide.
@@To-To Yeah, that is why I like this manga author so much. She is really good at adapting fantasy motifs to tell some real meaningful topics.
Thank you for introducing me to this anime
@@CountedCrimson I’m glad you enjoyed it!
This anime is my newest favorite for exactly the reasons you have stated.
I'll never get over the scene of Marcille casting THE BIG SPELL. It's such a beautifully horrifying shot. Marcille, who is normally very well kept and clean is barefoot, covered in blood, hair is flowing wildly at crazy angles, has got some gnarly eyebags going on, and she has the look of being in some sort of evil trance. Just her appearance alone lets the viewer know: "Oh...this is not a good spell".
without spoiling anything after having read the manga this anime can and probably will get a lot darker
I'm ngl, finding out about that scene when the gray hair girl turns into some kinda bird and turning things around kinda got me sold into watching this! I had to say to myself, "Is this really that same anime abouting cooking?" 😂
It’s definitely still the same, but I can’t lie that that part is pretty wild lol
1:30 i had to run that one by a second time, holy hell that's enough Internet for today
@@ravinsaber don’t think anyone saw it coming, especially not so early in.

Coming to this after reading the manga once i got caught up with the anime, this series is WILD and i dont regret it at all. Privledge of the living indeed.
This anime is the best way to describe how dnd plays you learn as u go never know what’s going to come next good or bad and the best time in dnd campaign is when your all at camp or in the pub having fun around food and drinks
OOHH DUNGEON MESHI TRULY DUNGEON MESHI
Sore wa, Dungeon Messi
that's a good revieuw.
the twist in the revieuw is a big spoiler for those who didn't watch it.
but your slot does tell them to keep watching, as nothing really changed about the show.
I'm normally hesitant about heavily spoiling things which is why I put it so much later into the video. It was also already plastered all over the internet so I figured most have probably already seen it. I know I got spoiled on it before actually getting to that episode lol
@@To-To it has been al over the internet for the wrong reasons unfortuanly.
people who just want to complain, but never consume the content, i hate those people, acting like fans, but never careing to actualy get invested in the hobby.
i enjoyed the series, defenetly waiting for season 2, but not a fan of the series.
it was a enjoying watch.
Hey nice to see you again. Hope you’re doing well with life and what not, and whatever else is happening irl.
But yeah, this one is something I’m not too familiar with, I read a little bit of the manga and I know how it ends with the dungeon and Laois with everything, and I know pretty much the more important and crucial plot points but I really haven’t watched to much of it aside from the important and food/cooking bits.
But besides that, this clearly has become a classic fantasy series, that touches upon fantasy realistically and makes it out into its own unique and fantastical thing. It doesn’t feel like some dumb, generic run of the mill fantasy but an actual living and breathing world with many, many factors that play into it’s most central theme being the dungeon and it’s monsters. Similar to something like ghibili and their ways of introducing the wild and supernatural.
The cooking stuff is clearly the most central thing of the show and a lot of what they cook is really impressive and more noticeably feels more like how one would actually prep a monster for cooking. Despite some of it being quite literally out of this world like the ice cream but the way they portray it makes it look like an actual dish that I would gladly try if it’s safe enough.
Also a lot of other people have talked about this show, it’s messages, it’s portray, of fantasy and more particularly it’s main guy Laois with his whole autistic, pretty not normal behavior. Because some of the stuff he does is autistic, weird and out there, and the series even tells you it with his scuffle with his “friend”. Which only serves to make him a more interesting and nuanced character in a place so already filled with monsters and supernatural crap. As well as of course more proved to surviving it.
With some major things down the line going to happen because of his personality and how it’s going to tie into the entire dungeon all together and how he’s going to escalate things to their fullest extreme.
Nothing much other to say than that. I haven’t watched the anime, I did read the manga at the ending, and I know the basic of what’s happening plot and theme wise. But other than that that’s all I gotta say about it. I hope you and anyone you know are still enjoying it and that it remains memorable as people say it is.
Safe to say it’s a really good fantasy series, and right up there with the likes of Frieren or other well crafted fantasy stories that are not isekai and isekai alone.
So like I said, I hope you are well and healthy, that the channel is growing better and that most of all you are still content on doing more content. That’s it and hope to see you soon!
I’m doing great and the channel has been doing better than ever. Thanks for asking, Steven!
I recommend a full watch of the anime if you ever get the chance as it can be pretty funny, but I’m excited to see the future developments you mentioned! Though I’ll likely have to wait for a season 2 for that lol
People keep saying it’s about eating and cooking, but it’s more about enjoying survival and that the lowest lows of humanity know no bounds, our society forgets humans are animalistic by thinking that we are are above yet we are still on the food chain
I have avoided the pathetic trope of being a weeb who has a waifu this long in my life, but…dammit I am in love with Marcille 😍 I can’t help it 😅
I think this is a solid analysis, fucking love this show!
We need to cook.
my brother honestly looks like chilichuck
I love that short reference to Parasyte, that anime is kinda a forgotten gem.
This is just an accurate representation of an DnD campaign reaching it's peak moment, after the fun adventure and discovery part of the campaign
Its funny because the only thing this story did that elevated it above others is that it actually explored the themes present and wasnt afraid to handle consequence even if it meant changing the course of the plot
"Cooking, and no one does it better than Dungeon Meshi."
*Cries in Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi*
I was a big fan of the manga and I was very excited to see an anime come of it.
Omg toto is so back
Didnt even wanna finish this video you made me wanna go watch this
This is both a good thing and bad thing. I’ve definitely felt that way before though lol. Where you’re like “shit I gotta coma back to this later before he spoils me, this shit sounds gas”
I totally thought 1:36 would start a sponsor
I’m unfortunately not big enough for those yet
I'm not sure where the anime is compared to the manga, I have finished the manga though, I will only say that the entire thing is indeed about cooking. Spoilers ahead
To save his sister they end up having to eat the majority of the draconic part of her, some other stuff happens, he ends up defeating the sorcerer, and this is indeed a fantasy world where prophecies become real.
Best part of the world for me is that the world is based around reality but with monsters, opposite to others that centers around the magic aspect. Not that I don’t like that but it’s just refreshing with this
Nice video bro. Glad I'm not the only one feeling this way about this anime. Btw quick question, do you think you'll do any Urusei Yatsura S2 vids?
I did one on the first couple eps like a year or two ago, but I dunno if I'll bother to catch up and cover the new stuff. Haven't seen many people talking about it.

The tone balance between silly and serious here gives me big teen titans vibes.
I think it’s funny how many seem to not realize dark moments can happen when it started with it but it also has a lot of light moments as its premise
When I first say this anime in Netflix I thought it was gonna be my new comfort anime…
The real lie was making us think living armors were just here as "regular mobs"
Same for that one second in OP1 showing a creature that never appeared in that part of the story "not being that important"
Or even a shot shown in the video showing some "random" statue in the background "just being part of the decor"
The forshadowing in retrospect is insane, so many pieces of a puzzle that fit together when you pay attention...Can't wait to discover what it leads to!
That show will make for a great matathon on 2nd viewing that's for sure
I actually don't know what you're referencing for the monsters in the OP and statue, but the foreshadowing is very well done. The author does a great job at seeding it into the character arcs, and Trigger steps it up by littering it throughout the visuals.
@@To-To Oh, you'll understand soon enough. I didn't notice the statue while watching the anime normally, it just so happen to be in a spot that gave me a huge "wait a minute..." moment watching the video. I won't spoil where tho, that would ruin the treasure hunt for other people reading this. ^^"
As for the OP you only see part of it, not the entire thing, but once you pay attention it should be noticiable as well.
You lie straight to our faces
Yes I did :)
In reality i get an elf turning to necromancy when they choose adventuring because they are odd balls so cannot adventure with other elves and they easily outlive all other races, so all friends die and other elves make it to real and embarassing.
So the only way to not go it alone is to bring your friends back but they cant unless they turn to necromancy.
Dude I just went back 10 seconds in 1:30 before he finished the sentence and all I hear is “monster co-“
and was like the f?
The basis for me reading the manga when it came to cooking and eating dungeon monsters was when it came to full circle to the lion demon , was infact how the dungeon would sought of cook the individual desires then consuming it a really twisted take
1:28 this was perfect
Madoka Magica vibes
The anime is about cooking, which includes the preparation with ingredients and the eventual eating. Some eat monsters, some eat humans, and some other like to eat intangible things like dreams and wishes.
The moment I realized that this had the ability to get dark is when lios found his sisters skull in the dragons guts
If only anyone had shown even a little emotion at that sight it would have been believable.
4:56 didn’t everyone want her back tho
0:37 why is race ALWAYS put into things.
I proceed to call Marcy an Elf. His race is a Tall-Man. It's a running gag that I don't ever remember character names.
i didnt even notice the sword thing
It's about eating. Then there will be the theme of you are what you eat. That's why I'm the latest episode there are some focus on people on people not wanting to eat monsters
This anime is not lying in any way. It is consistent as far as Ive seen. If you want an anime that is lying to you, watch Made in Abyss. You'll feel like suing them, but youll need the money for the therapy
Of course it isn't. I was. I reveal that in the video. I've also already seen MiA. Great stuff.
Forgot to like and almost didn't come back to, but I saw Dungeon Messi and I made sure I cam back for the Like
You dropped this king 👑
I wouldn't have watched a cooking anime or a light-hearted adventure - it's just not my thing. Yet, I watched it, because my brother recommended it, and he has the taste for darker and more mature manga. After the first few episodes, I understood that I liked it - its main character cast, its theme, its humour, its worldbuilding. But only when things escalated (around episode 15, I guess), I became enamoured with this title! Now, I'm reading the manga, and it's insanely intriguing!
The moment I heard the name "Studio Trigger" I knew I was gonna get gut wrenched by this anime.
*BOY, WAS I RIGHT*
While they party may look quite goofy and weird, they are in fact quite skilled and experienced adventurers, which can be seen by the fact that they have the ability to take on and defeat dragons, and not just by luck, but by skill and teamwork.
4:39 I don’t know why but it’s so funny 😆
I had to do multiple takes because I kept giggling lmao
Plot twist of the show... it's not about cooking.
