तहखाने के चटोरे

It was great, very amusing. I appreciate the attention to detail with both the cooking and explanations of the dungeon's ecosystem.

I did not read the manga, so I had no expectations about how characters should sound. So, while "some people" complained about the English voice acting I didn't have any problems with it, my perspective is that those people are overly sensitive. The target of said criticism was a female dwarf character who sounds a bit manly; but it could be artistic interpretation of what a female dwarf sounds like. Those people should stop crying over trivial nonsense and grow up.

This is based of a manga by the same name which has been completed in Japanese as of this review. While it may start a bit slow, it is VERY worth sticking around for.

Per the manga, the characters have fun interactions, the world isn't as simple as it seems, and the plot gets twisty. It has a constant forward progression yet retains the spirit a food centric anime. It's very well balanced in all these and the pacing may be a little more slow than normal for anime, but there is no dawdling, that's replaced by character development. Honestly, I think it's just worth it for the characters alone and the comedy is solid.

I really hope Trigger does right by this through the end (hoping we get that far) and so far they have delivered.

DunMeshi has an unusual concept, but the worldbuilding is so well done that It grows on you. In a dungeon the characters usually worry more about defeating monsters, but in this story they realistically have to worry about food, water, carrying weight, and other aspects of daily life. The animation is beautiful and the food actually looks yummy even if it is made from monster parts.

If you enjoy thinking about the ecosystem of an universe, I bet you will enjoy this show. Senshi is one of my favorite characters because he understands the importance of each being, from big to small, and shares his knowledge and wonder with the other characters. A great hit for TTRPG fans, for sure.

I find this series enjoyable. It reminds me for some reason of childhood. The plot is not very serious and heavy and the humor is blended well. I think I enjoy the pacing the most, nothing is rushed and you really take time to know the characters. The characters by the way are a pleasure to watch how they interact with each other, with the environment, and how they behave with their main and side quests.

It's also great how they left enough space to further develop the world with intrigues all around, which even if they don't address I wouldn't mind, as the plot is already good enough.

All in all this is a nice series to watch as a filler series that doesn't feel heavy on you.

I would say the manga is a 10/10 while the anime id 9/10 because the animation quality kinda varies here and then. Some might like it but for me it was such a jarring transition especially when they do it in one episode.

I did started this series from watching the anime. It didnt interest me at first until like episode 2 and then I started reading the manga.

I have to give my highest praise to the mangaka. I dont think I ever saw another series that put so much work and detail on their lore, character designs, and world designs. The mangaka really knows what she's doing and it truly shown in the manga (and the anime since they follow the manga pretty closely).

The anime has become one of the things I look for every week. I just wish they would have animated the extra mondter tidbit from the manga too and put it in as an extra. It would be an added joy to watch.
