As a Dungeon Meshi manga enjoyer, I am loving seeing anime onlys get shook by the revelation that Falin has been eaten by a dragon, 11 episodes after the first episode clearly started with Falin getting eaten by a dragon.
There's something tonally about how the characters treat resurrection magic and the fact that the audience doesn't get the full picture, that catches people off guard. A plot twist not caused by misleading or missing information or character betrayal, but from letting the audience get led astray by "it just works" assumptions of magic and fantasy.

I loved ep 1 of the dunmesh anime so much, except...
Where are the nutritional value spider charts and ingredients lists?!?
Hopefully they'll bring that to later episodes 🤞🏻

Dungeon Meshi and and spoiler etiquette
So, I've read some posts about people that are watching the anime as it comes out and are getting spoiled on some big stuff by other fans that are just discussing stuff about the manga.
This is kinda to be expected, as the maga has been out for a couple years, but also something that can be easily mitigated by tagging spoilers, which is a nice and easy thing to do for your fellow fans.
A lot of people probably already know this but for those of you that might be new, or new to fandom spaces here in Tumblr, or that for whatever reason don't know, her's a couple of tips:
People find new Dungeon Meshi content through tags, if you tag something so that people might find it, it's nice to also tag spoilers if it has them.
The most popular tag right now is just straight up "#dungeon meshi", it is what usually trends too so a lot of people see it, "#delicious in dungeon", "#dunmeshi", and specific tags like "#dungeon meshi anime" are less used and so less seen.
You can tag spoilers by adding another tag like "#dungeon meshi spoilers", but even only "#spoilers" it's pretty great too.
I would personally choose to tag for spoilers on anything that could spoil stuff specifically for the people watching the anime as it comes out, at least. But your opinion on this might vary of course.
You don't necessarily need to tag spoilers if you didn't also tagged your post with "#dungeon meshi" or whatever, because if it doesn't have any tags only your followers will see it and they might not mind. But if you tagged it for everyone to see it, then yeah it would be nice of you to tag for spoilers.
A lot of people add tags when reblogging posts, this too so that more people see them, if you do that, it would also be cool to check the post and tag for spoilers if it has any, even if you didn't write it yourself, you're the one showing it to everyone.
Of course none of us work here lol. All of this is just etiquette, not anybody's obligation. But in my experience most people will be willing to do this much to help out others that enjoy the same stuff we do.
Hope this helps! Remember to tag your spoilers if you don't mind n.n

Dungeon Meshi Anime Review, Season 1, Episode 10 review
Frogs frogs frogs!!!!!!!!! Frog episode!!!!
Another banger, only a few notes about things that I thought were strange or didn't like, but overall the episode was great and created lots of hype for the upcoming red dragon fight. I'm excited for next week!!!!!
Did NOT like that they removed Yarn from the scene where Tansu talks to the governor. I know she didn't really say much in the manga but she was THERE and it gave the strong impression that Tansu and his wife are a TEAM and that her presence is just as important as his. Don't like her being downgraded. And don't like that we didn't get to see her in her fancy hat and society gown. Boo. Boo!!!!!
They left out the explanation of resurrection??? That was the only real REASON the scene with Namari going to the resurrection office with Kiki and Kaka happened in the manga! Maybe they'll move that scene to the next episode? But it felt really weird to leave that out. There's extremely plot crucial info that needed to be dropped there.
It's possible that they wanted to save it to drop it right before the actual resurrection is happening...
Made Kiki/Kaka and Namari's scene seem a bit pointless imo, since all we really learned is that a dwarf has trouble correctly guessing the age of the shorter-lived races, which we already kind of know from how Senshi reacted to Chilchuck's age reveal.

sooooo i may have. spent my day binge watching dungeon meshi and here are my Opinions, having never read the manga ever (very MINOR ANIME SPOILERS ahead! nothing too in-depth but, y'know, for laughs):
laios is my autistic blorbo son boy and i love him and i want him to be happy. go find your sister, dude, but also eat monsters for fun and research reasons. this is the one context where i would say "eat monsters" like... ever
laios is also 1,000 percent a freak for wanting to eat monsters and study them the way he does. absolutely insane man. stop trying to be a martyr, you dumbass, and also stop poisoning yourself. both of these opinions coexist at the same time and i don't know how to feel about it because feelings (and social cues) are difficult
marcille is a lady who is so so SO smart and cool, but has absolutely ZERO street smarts. (babygirl you are JUST like me, except for the whole "being a woman" thing.) she's a "gifted" kid who now has burnout and needs to feel useful or else she feels like a failure constantly kinda girlie. she doesn't want to be abandoned. relatable. i'm concerned at how much i relate to her. stop being so relatable, dammit!!
chilchuck is INCREDIBLY emotionally constipated. lmao. he also has chronic young-forever face, which means he probably gets mistaken for a twelve-to-sixteen-year-old constantly, which... same, dude, same. i've heard (from the manga readers) that he's divorced with several children, but i don't know if that's true. i hope it is. i really want that to be where part of his issues come from. i want more angsty moments with his character. he'll be my new emotional punching bag when i finish all those other unrelated one-shots i'm planning on writing :)
senshi is a sweet man who just wants to feed and protect his new friends. i think food and acts of service are his love languages. he has a really fuckin' strong pot and knife for some reason lmao
i love falin. she's kind of a freak too, but she knows social cues better than her brother from what i can tell. sure hope nothing bad happens to her- oh gods. well, i sure hope nothing ELSE bad happens to her- OH GODS OH FUCK-
uhhhh. i like that the kobolds in this anime are dog-people. i love dogs. dogs are cool. very cute. 12/10 decision honestly
this anime made me so hungry but i still forgot to eat for most of today. rip. the food in dungeon meshi looks goddamn delicious though, so it's fine
sometimes these characters act just like a D&D party would. like. damn. this is just like that ONE TIME in dungeons and dragons when our party did [X action] and then [Y consequences] happened-
oh my goddddddssss there's ECOSYSTEMS IN THE DUNGEONS??? DUDE I LOVE THAT. CRAZY CONCEPT. FUCKING LOVE THAT. ADVENTURERS AND MONSTERS AND CREATURES (and senshi, who is his own category) ARE PART OF AN ECOSYSTEM. I'M CLIMBING UP THE WALLS AND GOING INSANE RN
oooohhhh shit politics. oh shit background politics that our main characters ignored. no wonder they focused on this other party lol
OH SHIT OTHER CHARACTERS FROM THEIR BACKSTORIES RRRRRAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH
oh yeah i guess this is about whoever gets the big treasure at the bottom of the dungeon or whatever if they defeat the Big Bad or something? okay dude. it's only relevant to me when it's relevant to my New Blorbos honestly. but i WILL jot that down though :eyes emoji:
look. i am NOT calling it "delicious in dungeon". i KNOW that's the creator's intended english translation, but personally i think that title sucks. so DUNGEON MESHI it is, for me personally
PLEASE give me the second season right now i need MORE. i'm slurping up this show like soup and i'm fucking HOMGRY!!!
okay that's it that you for comjng to my ted talk
