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.
This week we get learn a lot about the phenomenon known as "dungeons". Marcille points out that the dungeon they are in has been carefully designed accounting for a mind-boggling amount of complexity, and that she studied the science in school. But then the dungeon that Falin discovered seemed like a natural occurrence?
So which is it? Man-made, or natural phenomenon? And can the dungeon master really be taking every little detail into account? Are they omniscient within the dungeon?
This is the tipping point. This is where the story begins to crack open the floodgates on what is really going on.
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.
This is the first time they cared about the medicinal value of food. It worked in a fantastical way reviving Marcille so quickly. I'd only thought about the food as regular food until now. I suppose it makes sense mystical monster meat can have exaggerated nutritional value.
She's not revived or even a bit healed. Liver will help her body deal with the blood loss due to its high iron content, but that's about it.
Food can restore a mage's magical energy if it contains a lot of it, but potions that have a similar effect to an actual healing spell aren't a thing.
Ohh good stuff. I definitely prefer regular food over magical food, in a food show. The worldbuilding here is fantastic.
