DO NOT SPOIL THE ANIME WATCHERS

This is so that the anime watchers can sub to the community without worry of seeing posts that would spoil later parts of the story. This includes manga pages and panels, mentioning characters, fanart, etc.

Parent instance rules also apply, of course.

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.


The elves have arrived.

This episode opens on Shuros and Kabrus parties returning to the surface, and the events on the surface that follow. It seems representatives of the elven nation are here, consisting of the canaries. Military special forces, and experts on dungeons in particular.

Why are they here?

Meanwhile, Laios and his gang are invited deeper into the dungeon than anyone has been before.


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.

I think Senshi might be too much Senshi for anyone to handle.

Only three episodes left. If the current style of adaptation continues, we'll end on chapter 52. That chapter and all the ones before it, focus on Laios' party.

The very next chapter would continue the above-ground plotline, but it feels kind of weird to cut off there, to only have seen that the elves arrived, and that's all. And the underground chapters wind down again, not up. (Though they are great chapters, still)

I'm really kinda puzzled, it seems the series might leave us with serious narrative blue balls, and not even in the traditional sense of an intentional cliffhanger.

Maybe they'll rejigger the order of the chapters a bit, as the above-ground stuff and underground stuff doesn't necessarily need to follow the same back and forth order as the manga.
