>>286656551Ears too long and pointy
>>286656474She's also the dorkiest elf
>>286656551I feel like this anime is trying too hard. I saw her in the white dress and went nah
>>286656474>>286656551>"No, whiteboi. I'm the cutest, sexiest and most beautiful elfa, right Alvin?"
>>286656474>Marcille>elf
>>286656474she's a human with pointy ears (aka Tolkienslop), not an elf
>>286657319
Marcille is a revolting halfoid mutt. Post real elves.

>>286656474
>>286658833This manga is unnecessarily detailed sometimes.
Cute mutt.
>>286659432>unnecessarilyNo such thing. Knowing that Marcille pisses silently is absolutely vital to the plot.
>>286656551Her little hop on the merlon is forever burned into my brain.
>>286656474Marcille a mule! A mule!
>>286660557>pissesWrong number.
>>286660666Why was the author so cruel with her?
>>286656474nothing compared to her mom
>>286656474No.
For me it is Izutsumi
>>286656474not a real elfshe's a filthy mutt
>>286661274I could get her pregnant
Crazy how Marcille is the only good elf we've had in years.
>>286656551>Deedlit supremacy My brother.....
>>286657877donk elf
>>286661354Well she has actual character and doesn't just exist as fap bait/waifu in some harem slop isekai.I'd count Frieren as semi decent elf in isolation but she is brought down by the absolute slop the setting and story she exists in.
>>286661354
>>286656474>elf
>>286656474she grew on me so muchat first i didn't like her, but after the dream snail chapters it slowly snowballed
>mutt, mule, etc.So what, just adopt or get a surrogate. You want her as a wife, right?
listen, there's a lot of cute elfs out there, and some of them can shit silently
>>286662995Elves can poop?!

>>286666108elf sandwich is the only ship I will ever accept
I strongly dislike the Japanese trend of drawing elf ears sticking straight out to the sides. Even WoW, with their ridiculously goofy extra long ears has them sticking mostly backwards like they should.
>>286667835Correct. Elf ears to the back, goblin ears to the side. Anyway, Marcille a cute.
>>286658833based mule. IMAGINE having a waifu who does something disgusting like shitting
>>286657877Why is she swimming in her own poop water?
b-BAAAAAKABAAAAAAKA
>>286661474Frieren is also more boring than a sack of potatoes. Meanwhile Marcille is as funny as she is cute.
>>286667899Dark Elves really do be like that
>>286657877OP said cutest, not hottest.
>>286656474KOITO!!!!!!!!!
>>286656474Marcille is indeed cute, but she's no Seira.

>>286658833>>286660557>Marcille makes no sound when shittingOkay this author is autistic about certain details right?
>>286656474God, if Kui ever does another series set in the same setting as Dungeon Meshi but 100+ years into the future, I wanna see statues of Demon King Laius and people talking shit about the Golden Kingdom for having a high orc and kobold population and implications that Laius fucked his sister for the bad-ass dragon-blooded imperial lineage is too cool to pass up.
>>286669075Kuroeda is cute althoughbeit

>>286661491Falin deserves more porn.
>>286672237she doesn't have a choice
knife ears stink
>>286656551>>286661371>>286658771NTA but perhaps you could argue that Deedlit is more of an elegant beauty type. The problem is that I think Deedlit actually straddles a spot where it crosses over and one doesn't rule out the other, she's elegant unlike certain Frieren but can be cute a lot too.And that's with full respect for Kui Ryoko as perhaps the best mangaka of today. Actually, Marcille is not supposed to be too cute. If you read the manga, you notice how the author gradually makes her more plain - probably because of the spoiler thing that is revealed later, it's sorf of a silent retcon drawn out over tens of chapters because she decided she shouldn't be as pretty as she was at the start.Actual contemporary competitor to Deedlit is of course tsunelf, both possessed and unpossessed. Evidence presented picrel.
>>286656598
>>286667835It's acquired taste but in the end I started to like it. Not sure it could ever work in a live action medium o realistic game graphics (guess you gotta keep the style a bit stylised), but in drawn animation or manga it just does.

>>286677061She's barely a character.
>>286677094
>>286676820Firmly grasp it.
>>286659432Nah, it's one of its core strengths.
>>286656474wrong
>>286667835They stick straight out because it's easier to draw. Nobody wants to keep that perspective in mind at all times in 2D mango.

FUCK elf LESBIANS
Long Elf Ears are clearly superior.
>>286686561Agreed
>>286686327I only see one lesbian.

>>286689628Try to get a job with Microsoft, you won't have to write a line of anything, you'll just get paid to submit whatever AI shat out that day.
>>286688950Well in manga or anime you not only have to draw but draw a lot in a short amount of time.And also straight ears are much cuter than those shitty pseudo horns you seem to prefer
>>286689877>draw a lot in a short amount of timeOkay? Then don't take the job if you can't do it.And I feel like my phrasing of "even WoW" was clearly critical of the design.
>>286689310Elf bush!
>>286690119>Okay? Then don't take the job if you can't do it.They can do it, and they do it. Just because you don't like the design doesn't mean it is wrong
>>286690255Not according to the other anon's assertion that they do it because it's easier to draw, which is the claim we're currently discussing. If you want to argue about whether it's a good design or not, that's a different matter. I don't really have anything else to say on the subject, but I can sit here for a while and insult your opinion if you'd like.
>>286687062It's important for elves to turn on their blinkers before turning.
>>286690357>Not according to the other anon's assertion that they do it because it's easier to draw, which is the claim we're currently discussing. If you want to argue about whether it's a good design or not, that's a different matter.Things can be both easier to draw and more aesthetically pleasing, like in this case. Don't make me hold you though, you are free to go back and jerk off to westoid shit
>>286690357Saying it's easier to draw is unrelated to the design, as that is completely on the author.Saying that you can't cut corners in software is so stupid you must work the cash register and consider that software.
>>286690493>aesthetically pleasingEvery single elf in this thread would be more aesthetically pleasing if their ears pointed in the proper direction. Though, having looked back through the thread, I will admit that some of them already do.

>>286674923>Actually, Marcille is not supposed to be too cute. If you read the manga, you notice how the author gradually makes her more plainI feel like part of what makes Marcille so cute is how pathetic she is.If Kui had tried harder to make her cuter, it would ironically make her less cute.
>>286692430Izutsumi is a cat. 17 means she's geriatric.
>>286674923She gets more "plain" because everyone does. The artstyle overall changes considerably over time, likely kui just getting complacent and leaning on the faux chibi faces more often.
>>286656474sex with lycion
>>286656474Did she end up with the MC?
>>286696505in a manner of speaking
>>286696519Is there a Necronomicon version of this?
>>286696505She ends up being his wrangler.
>>286693797Yeah.
>>286659432Little humanizing details can be quite funny and help keep the characters relatable.
I lost interest in DiD pretty early on, but Marcille was fun.
>>286696519Falin may be the secret selfinsert.Was powerful even before the story but with the large payoff, she basically ends up a prestige class (dragon disciple) with increased strength, dragon teeth and voice, may even be able to breath fire in the future.Shit may even prolong her lifespan and with all that high-level magical goodies, it's almost as if she was the secret ending tool where it turns out Marcille cen get pregnant with magic and have a life partner too because of the schenanigans, but it is not openly written in the epilogue because that would be overly sweet and perfect sappy ending.
>>286698993What she went through wasn't worth it. Or really, the process destroyed her and what was left wasn't Falin but a thing the dungeon created referencing a thin copy of her memories in order to roleplay. Someone else picked up the character sheet, bullshitted the stats and finished the game.
>>286698993Not to mention she's absurdly cute yet hot at the same timeFalin mogs the mule so hard its unreal
>>286698993Falin is best described as "built different"
>>286699191>>286699154she wears heavy clothes because aryan who lives in the north with wolves n shitnot because shes obese
>>286661245
>>286699200S'cuse you negro, but that particular tribe does not hail from the north.
>>28669920069.5 KG of tits
>>286685172really likes men
Is Marcille really is gay?
>>286701437no, she explicitly likes a novel character thats a bishi prince-like character character, he also wears an eye patch
>>286701499like all elves she's a plaything for humans, so it depends on who is around at the time
>>286700881OTOH>all the erotic content in her book of doodles besides this is women with tits out, or in lingerie>mentions that she mainly draws women
not saying she must be ghey or bisexual but would not rule it out
>>286686327I am surprised, and very bummed, the author never showed off any extras artwork of what Marcille's life would be like if she got captured at Sissells house and became a Canary. She is only 50, so she'd probably be besties with Pattadol and avoid the rest of the bad influences, like the nice and proper elf she is
it's not even close
>>286701699the what if pages were relesed with manga so we may get that
>>286701699Pattadol embarassing coituses
>>286682855>>286684263not dark enough. give me my vanta black elf queen>>286683045nice
>>286701787I worry that trigger won't commit to her being the niggest. She's probably going to be washed out or have an outline or something.
>>286701584It's hard to draw basic erotic content with men. You gotta lean into your fetishes for several years before finding out what you like.
>>286702344>gotta lean into your fetishes for several years before finding out what you likeI think she knows by now
it's baguette all the way
>>286701739Best elf
>>286674923Definitely my latest favorite elf. I look forward to seeing her village its either going to be great or extremely painful for Unc. I wonder if season 2 is just a lost cause lol.
>>286703541Izutsumi is easily the best girl in DM.
>>286692430>Let's combine an angsty and selfish teenage girl....>...With the soul of a creature known for being aloof assholesIt's like some mad sorcerer wanted to create the ultimate pain-in-the-ass being.
>>286667835They look better sticking slightly outwards, makes the elf silhouette more obvious and unique + works better in settings where their ears are more versatile in terms of movement so they can be used to help the face and body look more expressive.
>>286661069the fact a doofy tall-man like Marcille's father was able to pull that makes him an automatic legend
>>286703885Izutsumi is the ultimate cuddling lifeform.
>>286703032This woman has said she is a picky eater. If the entirety of Dungeon Meshi was her playing into a food fetish...I would respect her greatly.
>>286659432Your ability to express yourself is unnecesary, showing each party member in the bathroom is unnecesary, the mangaka showing her worldbuilding for mundane activities during dungeon delving with small gags is welcome. Dous thou not shite? Your mouth surely does.

>>286710060AH, good call!
>>286706174LOOD!
how come there's no sex or even implications about sex in the manga
>>286710556Because Kui is a pure maiden
>>286710556Sex with halflings?
Anyone notice the trend with female authors of making the story revolve around sexy man&woman characters, then surrounding them with characters that are somehow out of the dating pool for the sexy ones.Laios and marcille are the dedicated sexy ones.You have a short fat man, so hes not in the dating pool because only tall men compete for sexy women.You have a short child man, same thing really except with more childish non-dating aspect.Laios has a sister so the sexy woman doesn't have to compete with her for the sexy mans attention.Theres a cat character who out of the pool due low IQ and the sexy man seeing her as pet/curiosity.+ side characters can be in the competition but they are then played for a challenge to overcome in the plot.Interestingly the 2nd sexy man inserted into the story that could compete for marcille is black.Then usually that setup is used to create drama for relationships but in Dm its very dry, despite having the cast mimic that of a manga that does have plot points about holding hands.
>>286711089>the sexy man seeing her as pet/curiosity.Laius would 100% dick Izutsumi if he found out she's more monster cat than woman.
>>286710556It is interesting how asexual the manga is given how Kui actually really loves romance. But I suppose she saw no way to shoehorn that sort of stuff in Meshi.
>>286706174
>>286706174Greedy little slut taking every inch of it inside of her.
>>286712730There's nothing worth doing anymore except jack off and commit suicide. Until a truly good anime shows up again, why the fuck should I go on living?
>>286712779Tojima Wants to be a Kamen Rider is airing right now, anon.
>>286712779change the world, have some self respect
>>286710556There's insinuations of sex, but it's mainly focused around Kabru being a ladies man.Guaranteed there's a few darker skinned half-breed kids wandering around Kahka Brud
>>286712779J<->M is getting an anime
>>286656474I like mine a little thicker than that
>>286704711
>>286710556Eh...?
>>286710556Because it didn't need it. That's not what the story was about, and in retrospect I'm glad Kui kept it out of the manga. It would have REALLY slowed things down imo.
>>286712730uh oh melty
>>286710556>>286712116>>286714010You're just too innocent to catch all the innuendo.
>>286710556It's implied that Kabru is a man slut
>>286701699>she'd probably be besties with Pattadol and avoid the rest of the bad influencesSome extras in the Adventurer's Bible actually shows them hanging out as buds, which makes sense since Pattadol is the diplomat for the elves and Marcille is a royal advisor
>>286716902kinda surprised its Kabru and not Lycion, you'd think a half naked elf who fights as an anthro wolf would get a lot of tail or something like that
>>286717224>you'd think a half naked elf who fights as an anthro wolf would get a lot of tail or something like thatYou're probably knot wrong
>>286717224He grew up manipulating a woman and tracking her body in detail just to survive. One with huge mental advantages over him. He can turn normal women on like a light switch in comparison.
>>286717224In Lycions case he's a prisoner and has much less ability to interact with random ladies than Kabru does, so its not really shocking. Also I imagine his actual appeal to girls would be more niche since he hates how he looks in his regular pretty elf form (and acts pretty aloof while in it) and only likes his wolf body that 99% of other people just think looks like a gross monster.Also Also he definitely only has the hots for Fleki.
>>286717698>spoilerthat would make sense more than him being a manslut, given what you said earlier (though i like to think him and fleki are FWBs as well)
>>286701499Puck's harem
An elf is an elf, you can't say it's only a half
>>286657877I love Kuroeda!
>>286701651Truly wonder how many mangaka apply themselves as hard as Kui
>>286674923>>286693797I always saw her as plain, like a girl-next-door type of gal. She's still fairly cute and her mannerisms amuse me, Marcille a best imo.

its picrel but out of curiosity when and why did elves become an obsession in japan?were they always part of the folklore there or was it some specific foreign thing?
>>286717698>spoilerI was gonna say. They are DEFINITELY fucking.
>>286720755>why did elves become an obsession in JapanWestern fantasy in general is popular in Japan because of Wizardry and D&D, which was further popularized by Dragon Quest.
>>286720833makes sense
>>286720755For the same reason theyre obsessed with Alice in Wonderland
>>286721020Most of the popular elves aren't even lolis though.
>>286721020
>>286721071I want to shave one of Frieren's eyebrows off while she's sleeping.
>>286717698>>286720800>>286717843Really wish there were lycion x fleki r18 doujins, hopefully S2 will make them happen
>>286720755>why did elves become an obsession in japan?It's those damn ears.
>>286721020Don't be a cryptic faggot and state the reason
>>286721696Theres nothing "cryptic" about it, japanese ppl just love classic Disney
>>286721876Alice in wonderland (that you've clearly never read), elves and Disney have nothing in common.
>>286656474That'd be Sylphie, my Goddess of Love
I loved the manga but is the Dungeon Meshi anime worth watching?inb4>/a/>liking anime
>>286722092Yes, it is a very faithful adaptation
>>286683045I'd worship her obsidian skin even more than other elves do desu.

>>286707401>>286658833 https://files.catbox.moe/vkow2t.jpg Spying on Marcille
>>286722504>farting soundsMarcille ran out of 2nd level spell slots, huh?
>>286722504
>>286722057nta but i think the point he wanted to make was that the book was really big in japan when it first got translated, hence why he said "for the same reason"or at least thats why i think he said that, either that or hes just high, idk
>>286721228samethey do give off the vibe that they fuck each other for stress relief (i bet fleki fucks while high)
>>286722504this guy draws quite a few knife ears and nice armor detail, and the style is good if you exclude faces.
>>286720755Safe version of catgirls. All the pointy ears and none of the furry connotations.
>>286722673You don't know shit about Japanese connotations.
>>286722673The appeal of catgirls is that they're girls that you can rub and rub and rub like your friendly neighborhood gato and they're fluffy and soft and go prrrrrrrrr while doing that cute thing that cats do when they rub their face and tail against you.
>>286722092Yes, it skips over a few minor things for the sake of time but overall is a pretty faithful adaption, and the visuals are fun and dynamic in that Trigger way, especially during big action/story scenes. Only thing I'm not a huge fan of about it is the OST, its very well made but a lot of the tracks are very generic 'medieval fantasy' music, there's a couple standouts but most of them are very forgettable.
>>286723263i really like both of the eds
>>286723266I wasn't really counting the ops/eds, just the regular soundtrack in the show itself. The only bad one was the second opening IMO, which is just kind of grating to listen to. The first op and second ed were great though, Kui's art is gorgeous alongside the eds in general, too.
>>286656474For me, it’s male Marcille
>>286704398Do you think Marcille ever resents her dad, even a tiny bit, for giving her the doofy genes?
>>286661069>Marcille does the same pose as her motherCute
>>286659432The little details make it even better, how could I truly appreciate dungeon meshi without extensive knowledge about elven earmuffs?
>>286720865Do you think the ayatola got isekaied?
>>286722646*faeces
/a/nons...what are your general opinions on tanned gyaru elves?
>>286726677nah, faces sic.
>>286726788
>>286725697I was gonna say that Marcille should have some lower court mages do menial work like that but then I realized the Gold Country wouldn't have a ton of mages or a stable economic infrastructure yet so she's probably having to do the work of a hundred mages. Thank God she has a long lifespan, she's not getting much sleep for the next decade or so.
I've been out of the dungeon meshi loop for a while. Did Kui made any new material?
>>286726788Tolkien would be quite confused by this
>>286727987I think anyone from that age would be
>>286727456At least she's got Patty.
>>286729645For a political envoy, she seems to have it super easy.
>>286726788Which type of brassiere does she wear?
>>286720755>>286720833And there wasn't the Warhammer "elves bad, dwarfs good" neckbeard army over there. And they weren't influenced by the thiefling enshittification of the genre.
