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.
Izutsumi’s membership in Laios’ party is off to a rocky start. The gang is running low on food again, and unlike our former main quartet, our new feline friend isn’t taking well to the idea of eating monsters, and is taking it out on her new friends.
As the journey continues through the now frozen fifth level, the gang starts looking for the next monster of the week to cook up for dinner, while refusing to treat our new neko-buddy with anything but kindness.
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.
