Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka V: Houjou no Megami-hen

Goddess Festival—A fruit festival that brings the labyrinth city of Orario to life. Goddesses symbolizing fertility are enshrined on the altar, and among them is the Goddess of Beauty. Bell Cranel, who has survived and returned to his daily life from the dead depths of the dungeon, is here and ready to enjoy the bustle of the Goddess Festival until he receives a letter from a girl at a small bar in a corner of Orario—"To Mr. Bell, please go on a date with just the two of us at the upcoming Goddess Festival. From Syr." Syr's single-minded determination will drive both Bell and the labyrinth city crazy. Meanwhile, the Einherjar, the warriors who claim to be the "strongest," are now suddenly on the move...

pretty simply its danmachi season 5 and it does well to flip things on its head and continue and resolve previous plot lines. Danmachi has a simple idea behind it, it wears its inspiration on its sleave, mythology. Following those footsteps its trying to be a classic story where a person with special abilities tries to become a hero. Some would argue he's a gary stu theyre right but so are the mythological hero's that inspired this story.

It does fall into the trappings of anime though so something to keep note of for sure with the harem thing if you can get over that ... theres a solid story behind it.

Preliminary (3/15 eps)

Welcome to the fifth season of DanMachi, also known as "The Harem Must Grow". It is the veritable Manifest Destiny of harem animes. The protagonist Bell-kun is divinely ordained to make every female cast member fall in love with him despite being a childlike Gary Stu. More seasons will follow until every single inhabitant of Orario without a Y chromosome is first rescued, and then neatly friend-zoned by him. Except, of course, for Ais Wallenstein, whose primary defining characteristic is being even more oblivious than Bell when it comes to romance. Truly, one of the harem animes of all time.

Having summarized all past, present, and ... future seasons of DanMachi, here's what you need to know about Season 5:

1) The new friend-zone candidate is stronger than previous ones, so the damsel-in-distress schtick has even less stakes than usual.
2) Even though the efforts to rob Bell-kun of his virginity reach new heights, he is as determined as ever to remain faithful to his oblivious crush.
3) The dungeon is just an afterthought. Think more cringy rom-com/slice-of-life and less combat. This could change, of course, but it seems like a definite downgrade compared to the last season, which, despite all the other shortcomings of the series, I had come to enjoy.

All in all, yet another season of the same. At this point, the rescue-then-friend-zone routine is getting so repetitive and the suspension of disbelief is so precarious that the anime feels more like a deconstruction of the harem genre. But I can assure you that was not the intention of the author.

To end the review on a positive (well, neutral) note: DanMachi Season 5 is exactly what it says on the tin. No better or worse than the the average season of DanMachi. If you watched the previous seasons, you know exactly what to expect. Caveat emptor.

-Is-It-Wrong-To-Pick-Up-Girls-In-The-Dungeon?-

POV: Is it wrong to decline all love interest in the Dungeon?

If this is not a harem anime, why they chose to go with this title?

If this is an Mc-driven story, why the hell we haven’t seen him develop and become stronger than a penknife thrower?

Bell Cranel is just incapable of picking up girls and level up from a pocket knife. He literally just an NPC since the second half of season one.

This show had the potential to be really exciting and different. It has some nice and interesting characters and even the plot was unique occasionally, but I am just tired ... to see that male Mc’s are acting weakling all the times in a romantic-action type of story like this.

You definitely don’t have to show x-rated scenes, but at least give us something rewarding to believe that this is what the title promised.

So far, it is quite the opposite.

⭐️ 2/10

Thank you for reading!
