it's eat or be eaten.

part of the reason that i really like the art style of dungeon meshi is that, despite being obviously stylized, i feel it is very easy to visualize how the characters would translate irl

i love that as soon as one character gets cleared of "possibly ate person meat" charges, another character pretty much immediately gets hit with them

noooooo tall chilchuck don't become the very thing you swore to destroyyyyyy

some people fixating on specifically marcille as being "the racist" is... a bit weird to me considering that the majority of the cast have said/done/exhibited something indicative of passive or active racial prejudice or ignorance at one point or another. and that is a very deliberate feature of the storytelling.

laios is so correct about dumplings. every culture is connected through the act of putting yummy things inside dough. and they're all so beautiful. world peace <3
