Dungeon Meshi

I was quite skeptical at the beginning of the first episode, but it immediately dragged me in. The show is nonchalant, weird in a good way and genuinely made me laugh more than a couple times.

It has really good and entertaining moments of cooking process itself with detailed recipes. Most recipes themselves have quite real analogies with real life ones, thus making some parts of the show somewhat insightful and inspiring.

Yes, it may sound stupid, but this show made we want to cook better and more often. I already had genuine interest in it and succeeded in a few dishes, but it definitely helped with my motivation.

Overall great, easy to watch and entertaining show. 9/10.

I genuinely really like this show. Is it dumb? Yes. It is slowly becoming a comfort show for me. I genuinely like anime about food/cooking and this show is basically that mixed with d&d.

The premise is a group of adventurers set off to rescue a party member who has got "trapped" in the dungeon but they have no money or resources for food other than a book of recipes for cooking monsters.

They respawn? It's not really very clear to be honest and it doesn't have to be, it's fun and that's all that matters. If you want a show that looks pretty, you don't really have to pay attention to it and is funny look no further.

It's nice looking, music is good and the English dub is actually pretty good. I am usually a sub over dub guy but the dead pan of the main guy hooked me.

I hope this gets loads of episodes as it's slowly becoming a favourite for me.

"Delicious in Dungeon" is a fantastic blend of fantasy adventure and culinary exploration, uniquely serving up an enthralling plot seasoned with humor and imagination. The series brilliantly marries dungeon crawling with cooking, where the characters must forage and feast on their monstrous encounters to survive. This inventive approach not only adds depth to the character development but also enriches the world-building, making each episode a delightful surprise. I'm a die hard d&d fan and I binged watched the entire series. I can't wait for more. It's a must-watch for fans seeking something refreshingly different. 10/10 stars!

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.

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.
