It was better. Still feels somewhat unfocused for the time being and visually still isn't Trigger's most exciting but it did look consistent again, world looks fleshed out nicely with the monsters animated with detail and I did adjust somewhat to the art and color palettes too. Humor is still a bit hit-miss but I did like the cast more in this episode than the previous one (especially with Marcille being somewhat refreshing among the crew). The cooking instructions and watching Senshi prepare recipes with instructions can still be a drag at times to be honest, even if the food does look good visually. Despite the cooking segments being kinda meh, it's at least good that the series at least has strong enough world building in general to rely on in this series for the start regardless of how the characters or the lack of progression story-wise can feel at times to bring some sort of anticipation towards the future. Can't say it had me excited or completely invested throughout the episode but I wasn't feeling as iffy about it compared to last week. Still don't really know whether this show is going to be good or not, but I'll be patient for now until this kicks into next gear at some point in the future.

Better than last week for sure as the comedy and cooking scenes held my attention much more. Still very high energy as expected from a Trigger anime, with very laid back scenes as well. Good world building, and just overall really fun watching the cast's chemistry together. I'm much more convinced than I was last week.

Senshi really doesn’t give a shit about any of the traps lol, all he has is cooking on his mind. That was pretty creative though, to take advantage of the traps to aid in the meal prep. It was also nice to see him and Chilchuck bond a little more. Loving the character interactions and of course the food looks amazing as always.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

Episode 2 of Dungeon Meshi, let's go!!!

It's honest to God, kinda funny that we see the gang eat bats in this episode, considering what happened in the Wuhan wet Market, lmao. The original manga chapter would have come out in 2014, so Ryouko Kui would have had no insight of the pandemic.

Anyway, I've never eaten bat before, anyone have any insight on what it tastes like? Can't knock it until you've tried it, I guess. No sane person is risking diseases if it don't taste good, lol.

Anyway, I loved the interactions between Senshi and Chilchuck in this episode. It makes it funnier in hindsight when you realize a)
and b)
.

Marcille is a funny mess in this episode. We all love her though.

This episode adapts chapters 3-5, if anyone wants to go check out the manga.

As I'm typing my post right now, thanks to this episode, I have a nice hot chicken takeaway! It succeeded in making me hungry! XD

The comedy balance was better here compared to the first episode, mostly thanks to Marcille being overly ambitious with her ways of getting mandrakes in the most chaotic fashion. Still, at least her way did make the mandrakes more delicious when they had an omelette. Not only that, but she was happy in having chicken from a Basilisk, which was park chicken, park snake. This was the main reason for my takeaway dinner tonight...

Chilchuck does act a bit too stubborn and should learn to stress a little less, but I do admire the commitment he puts into dis-arming traps and making sure that the group can proceed safely. Although, thanks to Senshi not giving a crap, he did use the traps to his advantage in making deep fried food.

The ED song was an upbeat jam, which does compliment well with the nice looking stills. So far, the chemistry of the cast has been fun, where the production quality does shine with the comedic moments, as well as when Senshi cooks food, where the details to the preparations are very good. =)

so if its 3 chapters per episode that is 72 chapters total for 24 episodes so that means trigger still needs 1 cour aka 12 episodes more for the final arc eh

I'm finding myself 100% focused during the cooking instructions, and it's not even real cooking... It's actually kinda interesting and feels believable.

Weirdly this is filling a Yuru Camp-shaped hole in my heart. It'll be my Thursday treat.

Episode 2 was pretty alright. I have never been too in to shows like this, but so far I am willing to ride this show out to see where it goes. One thing these shows never fail at is making me hungry... Maybe I'll go make an omelette or something.

I swear, i thought that was the mandrake's scream ahah

Poor Mercille can't catch a break. It's nice of her comrades to remind her that she is important for the group

I did enjoy the Chilchuk part, since he's my favorite chracter (But I Really love all the 4 main characters). It's nice that he and Senshi found a funny and nice understanding between them.

Another lovely episode. This is already one of my favorite series of the season

Enjoyed how both halves of this one were kinda focused on Marcille and Chilchuck, except for the first part where they killed a chimera lookin’ monster and turned it into a rotisserie chicken lol. Marcille was struggling to feel useful so she ended up trying her own method to get the mandrake roots out than what Senshi was doing, and the resulting chaos and derpy version of Marcille was hilarious lol. Thankfully the party reassured Marcille afterward, and as it turns out Marcille’s method ended up making the dish they made better and taught Senshi something, a nice way to turn things around.

And in the 2nd half we saw Chilchuck getting pissed at Senshi for not listening to him regarding the traps, I understand Chilchuck’s frustration here giving how traps can mean life or death but Senshi’s not giving a fuck was pretty funny lol. And after somehow making use of a trap’s oil they made some deep fried goods, and in the end Senshi and Chilchuck settled their differences and became closer, a wholesome end for sure. And wow, I absolutely loved that ED, some nice visuals and the song banged, that’s an artist I don’t think I’ve heard since they did My Hero Season 4’s 2nd ED (which was also a banger) so it’s very nice to hear them again after all this time.

Comedy doesn't hit with me. It just seems like a little bit of cooking surrounded by a show of insufferable jerks outside of Marcille which seems to at least be a normal anime girl character

After an amazing premiere Dungeon Meshi Aka Delicious in Dungeon episode two somehow managed to top the first! For those who were let down by the lack of triggers signature, animation style in episode one will probably like episode two much better since it’s chock full of triggers, iconic, visuals! Episode two also does a much better job at developing the characters and The kind of dynamics we should see from them going forward! Overall, very satisfied with this episode And I can’t wait to see the next one!

Great episode again, truly one of the best of the season. Even funnier episode than last time. Resident girl-fail Marcille learns she’s not useless after the dumb bat-mandragora plan. And the second half was also funny. It’s a wonder Senshi is still alive being so lax around traps lol. Also how chillchuck conveniently leaves Laios out when talking about everyone’s specialties. Really good character building this time around, heavily enjoying the anime

I have heard that snake tastes like chicken so having a half snake/chicken chimera sort of makes sense in that respect. I am a little surprised that the group is taking their time in saving Laios' sister but I guess in that world she can be revived (but still, come on she's being digested! x_x)

Oh nice strat simultaneously taking down the basilisk which at first glance I thought: "Huh, isnt that a cockratice?"...and apparently another mythical animal on it's own. I blame Harry Potter for everything else. XD

Now that's just trap (and no, not that kind you're probably thinking) abuse or very creative uses/exploitation of them. Fire trap as stove, oil trap (olive oil for crying out loud!) as cooking oil and blade traps as meat cleaver/chopper.

We're only at episode two but Marcille being miserable with dungeon monsters as food (until she actually ate them cooked by Senshi, of course) then this anime should be titled "Marcille's Perpetual Suffering" instead . LOL

Being caught up to speed on the rules of the world and knowing death is a common occurrence with people "wiping" and getting revived as a result. I feel pretty well caught up and in the world now.

Issue of the first episode's pacing well gone. This show is fantastic. Humor, food, interesting characters, and an adventure. Right up my alley.

Art is pretty decent, I wish it was a little better on the food, but for what it is? No complaints.

Upping my rating to a 9 depending on it goes may make it a 10.

Snake meat can be delicious, although very annoying and tiresome to fully separate to prepare and be able to cook. This episode made me long for it again, but it really does taste similar to white meat poultry like that from chicken (though that's reptiles in general, but something like alligator meat has a much larger fish or crab element to the taste profile, which must have to do with the animal being aquatic), so probably will just settle for the much more readily accessible option of chicken for now.

And bat is something which I've sadly never tried, but has long been on my list, and this episode just rekindled something in me again to want to try seeking it out somewhere. I don't want to have to/feasibly can't just swing by Palau though.

Also, Marcille didn't irk me nearly as much in this episode, which is a good thing.

The comedic style isn't doing it for me. I'm just hoping that at least Laios acting like a clown either fades away or I just become numb to it on the long run. Same with Marcille's reluctance to eating monsters.

As a fan of RPG knowledge, at least the whole lore behind mechanical traps is quite interesting. And the cooking segments still look awesome, so that's my reason to stick with this one.

Edit: Chillchuck acting all responsible towards detecting traps feel awfully inconsistent if compared to his chill stance in episode 1 after they lost their food supplies before the dragon encounter.
@Kimurah

As it is said in episode Chilchuck carries the responsibility of his comrade life when it concerns his job. Guy is just strict and loyal to his own job ethics and losing their food wasn’t the biggest concern here compared to the safety of his companions. They are two different things.

This show is the cooking anime series I didnt know I needed. It definitely makes me appreciate the cooking with the Emiya family series a lot more as well. Marcelle wasn't so bad in the first episode but she's absolutely grating in this second episode. I found her to be the biggest drawback from the episode and on the whole kinda wish she was being digested in the red dragon instead of the sister.

@Tamago006 How the heck isn't losing the food their biggest concern? Without it they couldn't survive back then for long because they didn't have someone who could teach them to cook and SURVIVE from the dungeon resources. Heck, the main moral in this episode blurted by Senshi is that you need proper nutrition to fight and move on in the dungeon. This is some massive plothole.

Both are the same thing, it's taking responsability for the party's survival in one way or another, and losing their food supplies falls on both Chilchuk's hands for failing to detect the trap that took them away and also on Laios' hands for not retreating from the dungeon after facing the reality that they could no longer advance without supplies.

Replicate the same principle in a mountain hike, or a boat trip and it doesn't work at all. You either need the keep your supplies secured or have the knowledge to survive from the environment.

@PotionDweller this screenshot has me hollering. I've watched that scene a couple times and it's glorious. What a relatable struggle as well, you want your contribution to the party to matter and can get self conscious if you feel like, or get told, that you don't. Great episode.

I can see game devs giving Senshi early access keys to their pre-alpha games, so that Senshi can found their exploits and glitches for them. I mean, using dungeon traps to make deep fried dishes is just way too exploity.... wwwww

At this point, I won't even surprised if someday Senshi just somehow perform an ACE and then the party just somehow got teleported straight to the dungeon's final room. Senshi is just way too exploity....
