Last weeks thread - 10 Comments
Dungeon Meshi is a well liked manga, and the first half of an adaptation by Studio Trigger has just finished airing. If you haven’t seen it, it's fantastic and I highly recommend it. If you're a fan, make sure to sub to the community here on Lemmy.
The series is available to stream on Netflix.
And so it ends. Another great episode, not much of a synopsis to write here. The gang sorts out the Mushroom and Gargoyle problem, and then discuss the best plan they've come up with so far for dealing with Falin.
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.
The manga is also perfect.
Having read it made me more excited for every episode, not less. Every week, I was hyped to see fantastic moments from the manga in motion.
Do you have any idea how hard it was to hold back on Izutsumi fanart until she got introduced?!
The anime is fantastic, but I still wouldn't say the manga is a "lesser" version of the story, so if you want to know what happens next, don't hesitate.
The anime will still be amazing, and worth watching.
Oh I don't doubt at all that the manga is fantastic but I'm the kinda person who doesn't bother with anime if I've already read the manga.
I'll start reading from the beginning and see if I wanna keep reading still after reaching the point where season 1 ends.
Meta question about this community, is it going to preserve the rules about not spoiling beyond the show while we are in the inter-season period? I don't particularly mind spoilers, but was just curious how you were planning on handling this as a mod.
Yes. I want the community to be a place where anime onlies can be active without worry.
I'm considering a weekly manga chapter discussion thread to replace the episode discussions, which would continue for the full series, but we'll see whether that has any traction.
Luckily season 2 doesn't have many more new characters, so most fanart is now fair game, etc.
