Dungeon Meshi

Description

When young adventurer Laios and his company are attacked and soundly thrashed by a dragon deep in a dungeon, the party loses all its money and provisions and a member. They're eager to go back and save her, but there is just one problem: If they set out with no food or coin to speak of, they're sure to starve on the way. But Laios comes up with a brilliant idea: "Let's eat the monsters!" Slimes, basilisks, and even dragons. None are safe from the appetites of these dungeon-crawling gourmands. (From Yen Press)

Most Impactful Tabletop Work Since White Box (Okay probably PbtA)

by tremofx
1 month ago

Rating: 10.0 / 10.0

Nothing too grand, never gets in over it's head, manages to shift goals and stay engaging, all while sticking to the premise it initially gave us. Reminded me of a tighter Dorohedoro.

I'm a big tabletop nerd so maybe I'm biased but hearing all the designers I look up to feel so similarly entranced, I think this will go down as one of the most impactful tabletop works - rulebook or otherwise. It distills what makes adventuring fun and how just simple critical thinking can turn what you do at the table into something memorable - much like itself.

that slice of life feel that never feels too meaningless but never is compromised. taking silly ideas seriously. truly a masterpiece.

So many layers

Holy shit, I was not expecting that level of trauma healing and bonding. The story seems simple, but it has so many beautiful layers to it. The SA pages hit me like a truck. Insane manga, I am absolutely in love with it.

It's a simple story, but with excellent levels of world building and characterization.

The storyline sounds simple, but the way the author builds the world realistically and creates characters very lively, having their way of thinking, makes it a delicious dish for readers.
One minus point of this work is rereading many times may not work well because its story is a little simple.
But overall, it is still an amazing manga for me to remember. Btw, its anime is very good too.

Calming and Great Cooking manga

by CCheshire

Rating: N/A

I have to say it started out pretty average for an adventure manga but it expanded into a fairly unique and interesting concept. The few parts that did end up losing my interest were the final big battle with the dungeon lord but the ending was a great conclusion.

I feel like I could recc'd this series to regular people who are not into anime and they would want to follow along too with the anime. It avoids alot of toxic anime tropes and fanservice with the female characters who all have agency and different goals not related to men. Also, with the curse of so many isekai novels, we often have to tolerate cardboard worlds and settings but everything is the opposite here with detailed and careful planning of the world's ecosystem and how the dungeon affects all living beings.

I wanted to focus on Laios the main lead and I feel like he was written to be on the ASD with his niche interest being ofc monsters and his friend's support and sometimes bringing him down to reality. Also, his sister who is missing a good part of the story since you know what happened still remains a unique character when they do meet up again.

easy reccomendation

by naianvx

Rating: 9.7 / 10.0

one of my favorite series for the last few years. the balance of dungeons and dragons, environmental storytelling, and character building makes it a gem in the fantasy genre. the author has an expert sense for making the world feel lived in. by the end of the series, seeing all the forces of the world congregate but still working in their own interests makes it more believable than other stories where the world blankly supports one character in an ultimate conflict. taking off .3 points since I feel the character of Kabru hadn't been optimally used despite being introduced later in the series and expectations already being high.

Delicious from beginning to the end

When I started reading this, I just love to read about the everyday kind of life in the dungeon. Eventhough I am not a fan of cooking manga, the twist on the bestiary of the fantastical beasts and how to cook them just make everything so fun.

As it goes on, the plot get more and more exciting, until it culminate into a most satisfying ending. There are no wasted characters, no wasted setting, no wasted plot, no wasted action. Everything is useful to bring everything together in the conclusion.

I believe this is a must read for all!
