The characters pretty much adhere to the normal characters you'd expect in a medieval fantasy RPG style world which didn't bother me but may be too plain for others. It may lack the detail and flair that some manga readers are used to but the style overall is solid. I don't know too much about judging manga's art but I will say that it is certainly not bad art. Food preparation works as it does in real life, the monster's strengths and weaknesses are sometimes magic but more often realistic details based on how they might be if monsters lived on earth as we know it. However after I got through a few chapters I came to truly enjoy both the realistic food preparation aspects of the story and the fantasy aspects as well.Īlthough Dungeon Meshi's story is very much rooted in the archetypal idea of a medieval fantasy world, many of the plot points are grounded completely in logic and reality. At first I thought that the focus was too much on food and too little on the great fantasy world imagined by this
Instead it is an extremely solid story with a simple premise. Overall, I'm very glad that I did.ĭungeon Meshi is not a groundbreaking, exciting manga full of action and twists. I was looking for a new manga to read and I tend to like stories involving dungeons in general so I clicked on it and tried it out. I came into Dungeon Meshi with no expectations and no prior knowledge of what it was about or how good it might be. After learning of Laios' circumstances, Senshi expresses his desire to cook a dragon and joins their guild, thus beginning their food-filled foray into the dungeon together. An enthusiast of monster cooking, he helps them prepare their monster ingredients for safe consumption. Upon the preparation of their first meal in the dungeon, they are stopped by an onlooking dwarf named Senshi. Time being of the essence, Laios suggests the taboo of eating the monsters of the dungeon as a means of gathering supplies.
Despite having lost the entirety of their supplies and belongings, Laios along with Marcille, an elven healer, and Chilchuck, a halfling thief, immediately reenter the dungeon, determined to save Falin. Laios, the leader of one such guild, encounters a dragon that wipes out his party and devours his sister Falin. Guilds are spurred on by this promise, traversing the labyrinthine dungeon in search of the magician. EditSynopsis After the Golden Kingdom is sunk underground by an insane magician, its king emerges, promising all of his treasure to any who defeat the magician, before crumbling to dust.
