[thatsmimi]

Hello, I saw in your translation for shuros proposal that you said savaralyn was a racist and since I've reblogged from them before do you have the source for that? I've tried to find info about it myself but can't seem to find anything

No problem!! The call out post is pretty outdated + Savaralyn is possibly the most active and consistent dunmeshi blog around, so I totally understand how things get buried. This post had a whole page with the evidence, but the carrd in it has since been taken down.

I've actually been meaning to ask if @putite (a different Mimi, coincidentally) has any intentions of restoring it, since there are a lot more than these images embedded in the post.

Some of stuff I found:

screenshot dated Jan 18 2024 | wayback machine link for the second one

I learnt about this back in January of 2024 and just basing on those evidence alone (the call out post dates back 2021), I would've gave them the benefit of doubt and assume they could have changed since the Trump-era. But then I delved into their twitter and there are some pretty atrocious likes in there, on subjects of anti-aboriginal or tweets complaining about "wokeness". Multiple tweets are colored red because I have Shinigami Eyes turned on.

Unfortunately I saved very few screenshots about the whole investigation and as of Feburary 10 2024 the whole account has been nuked and remade, focusing on Dungeon Meshi posting entirely.

I understand if you don't find it compelling enough to come to any conclusion, since most of these seems pretty shoddy.

So what's the take away from all this?? Honestly, Savaralyn's translation has been a cornerstone in the dunmeshi fandom that it'd be impossible to cut clean because of differences in political beliefs.

One thing I'll say in their favor is that Sava never include any of their ideologies in the translations, but it should be made clear for people who do not want to support trump/alt-right content creators.

I personally choose to not support them and skip the middle man straight to Sava's source, or buying the official books when they come out. I'm probably going to keep making some of my own translation from chinese into english and post them under #translations, but to prevent spreading misinformation or mistranslation I'm probably going to only keep them unrebloggable.

Daydream Hour Page - How to make an Elven Communication Fairy (Homunculus)

I just did this using Google's machine translation tools, and I didn't clean it up, but you can get the gist of it. I saw Japanese fans on twitter going wild with this information the day the Daydream hour came out, so I already knew there was something about blood and semen, but it's so fun to get more information about how the fairies work!!!

Keep an eye on Savaralyn 's tumblr because I'm sure they'll post a better, cleaned up version of this soon, and reblog that one because it'll be easier to understand but... This is just so cool! The fairies are homunculus, and so the reason they look like their owners is because they're literally made of their semen (reproductive fluids) and fed their blood. Blood and semen and other body fluids are frequently used in real world magic or religious rituals so it's really cool that Kui is being unflinching about using it here, even if it's "gross" to us modern people... I love seeing it acknowledged in a fictional work! tl;dr alchemists used to believe that there was A Little Man inside the sperm but because the baby sometimes looks like the mother, they are absorbing traits from her through the Blood.... and so if they can make a baby Only With Sperm they can make a little man 100% in their own image. But Dungeon Meshi and especially the elves don't seem to have the same sexism that we have in the real world... Real world alchemists wouldn't think about how women are supposed to do alchemy without semen, they just would exclude women I'm pretty sure, but elves don't seem to exclude female elves so, how are female elves getting their fairies? Either: - Only male elves can make a fairy and so they construct them for female elves. - Female elves need to get semen from a male elf (or whoever, does it have to be elven semen?) to make their fairies. - Female elves use female ejaculate (Ryoko Kui confirming female ejaculation real in Dungeon Meshi universe??? Joking) - Female elves use menstrual fluid that has a shed egg in it instead of semen (equivalent reproductive fluid to male semen)

If you have to get someone else's semen for your fairy does it not look like you? Does it look like a mix because you use your blood and their semen? Does the blood need to be regularly given to power the fairy? What if someone doesn't have enough mana - can Tallmen make fairies? Would they be able to make a fairy if they had an extra mana source (like a dungeon, or an elf) to regularly feed the fairy blood?

This is just such a cool bit of worldbuilding in such an unlikely place!!! Everything in Dungeon Meshi is so fascinating. I can't wait to get my Daydream hour in the mail from Japan. In case you haven't seen it, here's the other page we've gotten on the fairies:

As you can see, only Mithrun and the Queen's fairies look substantially different from them. Possibly the queen's bodily fluids are too sacred/precious to be used in this manner? What if somebody tries to usurp the throne or something (more problematic with a male ruler but still an issue if you have magic maybe...) and Mithrun... well, hard to get semen out of him. So his may be made by someone else but fed by him with his blood? (Could have been grown from a donation by his brother? The hair color is right but not the eyes... but Mithrun's blood may be influencing the appearance?)

Wait hold on there's images or descriptions of chil's family like his siblings and stuff?! Where I don't recall them being shown in the Manga or adventurers guide anywhere! Like I know we've seen his daughters but that's all I knew of!

Yes! I think it’s from Kui’s blog, I don’t keep close tabs on it but with the art format + since I haven’t seen the siblings pictures in any of the artbooks and guidebooks for Dungeon Meshi it’s a safe guess

Here’s a link to the pictures in question! Savaralyn’s blog is a great place to look at other things from Kui’s blog and lesser known dunmeshi canon content too https://savaralyn2.tumblr.com/post/687638172437495808/dungeon-meshi-siblings

[transsexualism]

is it ethical to repost savaralyns lycion snorf gif. i think they animated it themselves but uhm

[lucky-fy]

Looking back on the doodles Ryoko Kui did of Falin in different outfits, and how they showed that Falin was more comfortable in men’s fashion, I wonder…

Could it be that she’s wearing a male healer outfit? Hers look very similar to the gnome from Kabru’s party (minus the sort of apron (?) thing he wears on top), compared to the outfit Mrs. Tansu’s wearing.

Or maybe the outfit is just meant to be unisex and Mrs. Tansu is just wearing her own thing, like her husband.

Edit : never mind that, it seems the clothes are in fact unisex

the thing about savaralyn is crazy but this is the second time ive seen a callout doc that leads with “this person doesnt think pucci from jojo is black” instead of the actual super gross things theyve said. why is that still a thing were doing

[putite]

hi! i was wondering what happened to the savaralyn2 page?

to sum it up, i found reaaally bigoted stuff on their twt acc like 2-3 years ago and they just happened to be a shitty personal overall. i saw on some tags from reblogs that savaralyn hasnt really changed at all bc ppl checked their twt acc, so theyre still a really bad person

edit: idk if u mean the carrd i made regarding savaralyn, it got taken down :/

Inspired by @room-surprise's partial break down of this page, I got it translated! Room also has a lot of good dunmeshi world building posts, so I definitely recommend checking out their blog!

Repost policy: CN->ENG Translation + clean up is done by me! This post is locked because the leaker prefers to not have her stuff reposted to other places to prevent spreading accidental misinformation/mistranslation, so this is only for casual reading before official translation comes out. If you want to crop part of this post and use elsewhere please make sure to add the above addendum, or link back to this post instead. Here's why I don't support Savaralyn's translations.

Hi! Sorry this is out of the blue, but I just found out that savaralyn is a racist right-winger on their Twitter (I can send you the post with the proof) and wanted to let ppl know..unfortunately I don’t know anyone else who translates dungeon meshi side content though (but savaralyn has said that they mostly just used machine translation + cleaned it up anyways)

oh jesus. thanks for letting me know yeah i've just found their twitter and there's some heinous stuff especially from before 2017. not sure if they've changed since then but yikes, i'll try and find a different source/machine translate things myself instead

[rubysparx]

hiii ive just gotten into dunmeshi recently! do you know any good blogs i could follow for it? tysm <3

ummm me ^_^

I jest I jest (unless….) I can recommend some great artists but I don’t necessarily know of any blogs that just post general dungeon meshi besides myself. And @/dungeonmessy though it deletes its posts pretty often, fantastic fanart (also big fan of its original work, check it out). There’s also @/namaris who's been reblogging a lot of great dunmesh posts lately. Though im pretty sure thats not all they post (i don't follow them myself, i just follow the dungeon meshi tag)

anyway great artists i like; wombrion - not exclusively dungeon meshi but such a fantastic art style and staple to the fandom as far as i can tell. also comms open i think! Wattse - another staple imo, such beautiful detailed works. Also not exclusively dungeon meshi but maybe you like the other things they post about ! kemafili - apparently this is the man known for "my son egg and his brother cheese" but i followed him for dungeon meshi and then he got me into All Saints Street so very worth it. He posts some very wild things about Laios tho be ready (for the truth, frankly). Very funny, VERY fucking talented, number one absolute CEO of Laios x Namari. Also I think you should follow maria-ruta she honestly does not post that much dunmesh but they're a fan and have such amazing art and original characters check her out anyway. smiles

there's also savaralyn, if you're looking for leaks and very simple translations. He releases Ryoko Kui's personal blog sketches and translates anything that hasn't already been translated using a combination of ai and his own understanding of the language. The result is... usable. I don't follow him since there's a number of posts floating around describing him as problematic. But his blog archive is very useful, for example I own the world guide/adventurer's bible but i can only really get clean scans of the pages from savaralyn's blog.

Thankyou for asking! im very glad to see more ppl enjoying my dungeon meshi posting now that the anime out :3

apparently savaralyn(2) is a racist pos, oops. I don't usually interact with fandom spaces so had no idea who she was 🤯
