Chapter 6, 7, 8: >>289874094Chapter 9
>>289955418Rabbit
>>289955411You should put Chapter 9 (the current chapter) first and the previous chapters after.
>>289955411Why is she reading the Zohar
>>289955529fucking goblin
>>289955576ENTER Best Bois
>>289955529>Vegetables.There it is, the panel that made me check out Dungeon Meshi. I'm glad I did, it became one of my favourite manga.
>>289955662So there are goblins in the dungeon and they're at least intelligent enough to trade with.
>>289955695>Whoa, an elf>Man, she's uglyHoly fucking shit my sides
>>289955760>>289955783I like Senshi but this was borderline retarded
>>289955794haven't you ever heard of breaking bread with the enemy?THINK
>>289955823reminding me of the spirit circle bread edit from years ago
>>289955418yo opchama
>>289955927howdy feller
>>289955411Reading Dungeon Meshi was a huge waste of time. The experience was entirely unengaging. It bored me relentlessly. Kui doeesn't understand what makes fantasy good.
>>289955833>>289955852>>289955876>ORCS DINDU NUTHIN!
>>289955989all you know how to do is waste your timenow get the fuck out
>>289955576>>289955603This was one the most poorly adapted pats. Total slideshow and a huge dissapointment. Was also more censored compared to this.
>>289955794Senshi is autistic.
>>289955989Really? I liked it a lot, it's rare for a manga to stay thematically consistent the way it did
end of chapter
>>289956070my niece done got bit by a copperhead
>>289956080Don't respond to It.
>>289956040The orcs look like shit.
>>289955603Those poor beer wenches...
>>289956089thanks opsama
>>289955662Nip Kobolds tend to be dog-like while western ones tend to be Lizard-likeWhy is that?
>>289956080The dungeon floors in dung meshit just aren't as interesting as stuff from other series like Danmachi, Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita or SAO. Heck even something very mediocre like Shikkakumon no Saikyou Kenja is superior in that regard. The actual dungeon crawling is very weak. Dung meshit is also just too repetitive. It really drags on longer than it needs to at times.
>>289956317IIIRC it was something about the kobolds in the first edition of D&D being described with some dog-like qualities and having an illustration that was kinda in between. Same with the orcs being pigs.
>>289956018I never took it that wayThe orcs definitely aren't in the right, we just understand why they are the way they are more
>>289956317IIRC it was a specific translation issue about kobolds having snouts. The Japanese translators took that to mean they were specifically dog faced.
>>289955576Orcs don't seem too evil here, since we know these people will get resurrected. But isn't it canon they feed people to wargs? That makes the MCs seem scummy for negotiating with them.
>>289956089If only he knew.
>>289956403>The dungeon floors in dung meshit just aren't as interesting as stuff from other series like Danmachi, Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita or SAO.Oh. My condolences.
>>289956317I wouldn't say "western" kobolds are lizard-like. Specifically DnD kobolds are draconid.Traditionally in western foklore, kobold is just the germanic word for goblin or gnome.
>>289955548>koboldthat bar owner is extremely ugly
bug eater
>>289956136Cope more you disgusting fucking elf
>>289956265Someone is gonna revive at least them. Nobody is gonna revive that progeria looking hobbit though
>>289955576Fuck orcs. Making them sympathetic and chums was a mistake. Sorry thicc albino.
>>289957405>Fuck orcsdon't mind if I do!
>>289956089hantan lyë avestaina
>>289956018Not one of the orc's points isn't perfectly counted by Marcille>Orcs killed lots of other races tooIn other words, they were just as guilty and were just worse at it, sucks to suck>you kept plundering other villages>You did that before you even came down hereSpeaks for itself, they don't want to/know how to live off the land, they subsist by being nomadic bandits and don't even try to mend their waysFuck orcs, glass them off the face of the planet
>>289957487
>>289957487Laios...
>>289955498Tan elf spotted.
>>289955695>>289955757There it is, a panel that makes me chuckle whenever I read it
>>289955529the half foot dude sounds like peter lorre 100%
>>289956929>Nobody is gonna revive that progeria looking hobbit thoughiirc we do actually see him cameo later
>>289957830It's funny in a sense because by all accounts, Marcille is a pretty plain elf. The race-swaps Kui did kind of show if she was a tallman, she'd be fairly mousy
>>289956403>SAOAnon SAO was generic as hell when came to the dungeon floors wtf are you talking about ?
>>289955794It makes sense considering his past.
>>289958535They still more interesting than anything to look at in dung meshit. SAO's floors are visually appealing. Meshi mostly just looks like a bland and boring indoor city.
we never really do get much more into the history of the orcs, do we? Like how many were there? How much of the world did they span?
>>289958721
>>289958535You're joking, right? If 'generic' is your complaint then Dung meshit is definitely worse. SAO changes the scenery for the floors. Dung Meshit mostly has these dull, generic brick walls everywhere. The dungeon interior is just dressing in this show. Heck, even Isekai Meikyuu with its hidden rooms and traps was more interesting than this. Watching the MC of that show fight off tons of Needle Woods after getting trapped in a hidden area was actually fun. Dung meshit feels so dull by comparison.
>>289958771>zon's horns are fake implantsew
>>289955833dont act like a pigger and you wont get treated like one :)
>>289958940Yeah orcs are a lot less cool now. The horns were like the one cool thing they had.
>289930578One of my favorite trivia facts is that asian flush (where lots of east asians get extremely redfaced by drinking alcohol) is caused by a mutation that makes it so your body is terrible at clearing toxic aldehyde created when you metabolize alcohol. Why was this genetically selected for so much that about half of east asians get it? Because if you spike your aldehyde levels it acts as a wide spectrum anti-parasite treatment, so a lot of people were killing all the worms they'd accumulate doing agricultural work every time they'd get drunk.
>>289959071>>289930578
>>289955876Poor Chilchuck, taking abuse because he's a half-foot.
>>289958940>>289959056hope they don't go skying with them
>>289958771No way in hell are those average height examples low body fat %I get that that tidbit is because pigs IRL are surprisingly lean but it's not really reflected in the art hereThe orcs we see in this chapter are better examples of this, they look fatbuff but that's just because of the hair
>>289959364
>>289955980Bastard bread stealer
>>289959364She drew this pic but it seems it didn't end up in her officially released books.
also this
>>289959960>>289959849>>289959869Hideous cancer. I really have to hand it to Kui, she really has a knack for uglification.
>>289958482She's plain in a cute way though. She has that girl next door charm.
Kui would even make me fuck goats
>>289959984wouldn't this imply litter births?
>>289955898>Marcille and the Orc going to their corners like it's a boxing match
Maintaining the agenda is our top priorit
>>289955833Cute orclet>>289956040>(stolen)>>289956089Thanks OPEpic foreshadowing
>>289960524A nomadic, raiding centered species? I'd be surprised if they didn't birth in litters to be able to keep headcount with constant losses.
>>289955411Just a reminder because some people weren't around a couple of years ago, the resident schizophrenic is assmad about Delicious in Dungeon because, back when the anime was airing, it was in competition with Solo Leveling for views, and he was shilling it hard.Seeing as Saudi Leveling is barely relevant nowadays, you can see why he's still seething.
>>289959046What did Dungeon Meshi do to deserve a resident schizo?Is it really just because the author draws characters with noses?
>>289961231honestly, having a high birthrate while also being a violent raiding species might warrant wiping them out alone
>>289955529>>289955548You'd think that fresh vegetables would be a high value barter for people who can't go back above ground.
>>289961571probably the anti-Trigger schizo
>>289955662>humans and elvesIs this a mistranslation, or just orcish perspective?
>>289961571Schizos are schizos for their own reasons. A series only has to be noticed to spawn one.
>>289955794Early Senshi comes across like he has no sense of danger aside from malnutrition.
>>289956040I think this is the first dish you can actually make in real life.
>>289961409I don't know if that's actually true, but holy shit would it make sense.Dungeon Meshi and Solo Leveling are spiritual opposites.
>>289961409Sounds like diaperfag with Edgerunners and Chainsawman.
>>289956089Danke
>>289961571Yes. Having a colorful, "westernish" style, that cares more about each character having distinctive features than about being fanserviceable is enough to attract schizos and shitposters.
>>289956317I am an extremely old man that had the red box basic set D&D as a kid and I always thought they were supposed to be dog men until like third edition (i.e. like 15 years late). Specifically nasty hairless and monstrous dog men though. I know there is an illustration from the first edition AD&D (slightly different than basic red box D&D) Monster Manual of a doggish-lizardish kobold that people always cite as the origin on the internet, but I don't think that was quite it. Japs are definitely the ones that made them really silly like being specific breeds of dogs with trimmed coats and so on though.
>>289955794This anon never did homemade bread
>>289961409Pains me to say, but I'm beginning to think Imperial Japan was right about Koreans
>>2899563171st Edition kobolds were dogsWizardry was based on 1st/2nd EditionWizardry became the literal grandfather of JRPGsDogbolds became Japanese standard, same reason why Orcs lean much more into pig/boar aesthetic
>>289956089Thanks, anonsito.
>>289956317>>289956411>>289962920>>289963419Baldur's Gate kobolds would always go Yip-yip in the Nashkel mines.Dogbolds are canon to me.
>>289956089Residential district?>two floors belowOn floor 4?Why would a dungeon have that?Thanks OP
>>289964387It sort of makes sense when you see it
>>289963769That was also my first exposure to kobolds.
>>289955695Iconic panel
>>289956040Cute orcThat bread looks so good
>>289956089Thanks OP
>>289955833>>289955852Orcs being passive aggressive little bitches is a first one
>>289956070spiciel
>>289956089Thanks OPheh
>>289956528It's open season both ways and they don't have healing magic to rez so they can't really be blamed.The wargs would put bounty hunters down permanently.
>>289964387the dungeon was formerly the golden kingdom, you meet the former king in chapter 1
>>289966339This is not self defense though
>>289956528Yep, they feed adventurers to wargs intentionally so they can't be resurrected. Though its kinda middling since a lot of the adventurers heading into the dungeon in recent times are doing it specifically to hunt down orcs, since there are more and more bounties out for them. I'm under the impression that the orcs are probably the worse group here, since they seem to overtly rely on pillaging to get by, even when they were on the surface, but still, it's no huge deal in this instance since this dungeon bar is specifically be for criminals who are hiding from the law by holding up in the dungeon. So it's either 'trade with seedy criminals' or 'trade with pillagers', you're not gonna get much of a better option within a dungeon.
>>289961747Not a mistranslation, he literally does only reference humans (as the umbrella term) and elves even in JP. I guess elves are probably a rung lower on the living being scale by his perspective.
>>289966881Its not like anyone is willing to let the orcs set up farms anywhere near them, and most people won't do business with them either. If you can't grow your own food and you can't buy food, are you supposed to just starve to death for the convenience of those that hate you? If people send assassins to participate in genocide against you people are you obligated to just let them go with a slap on the wrist so they can try again with more firepower?
>>289955695Based orcbros.
>>289956089Thanks.
>>289956089>>289956070Laios the Conciliator.
>>289967890That just reinforces the point that humans and Orca are in a life or death struggle and they shouldn't be friendly with them.
>>289968640I'm choosing to believe that wasn't a typoFuck Orcas, fuck delphinidae in general really
>>289968640Not at allLaios' kingdom benefits greatly from accepting the Orcs in the end
>>289967193Nah he's talking to Senshi, so I guess orcs go by the notJapan perspective of only tallman being human.
>>289955794I'll be honest: you saying this makes it clear you've never made bread. I highly suggest you try it sometime. It's one of the single most fulfilling, heartwarming foods you can ever make. It'll change your lifeIt's by no means any exaggeration for me to say this: human existence is defined by bread. It exemplifies the mastership of agriculture that sets us apart from animals, which is why when you eat your own freshly baked bread, you can feel it doesn't fulfill a base instinct like hunger. It's some higher, more divine instinct.Making and eating bread is basically manifesting and enriching the soul with its one true purpose.
>>289956089Thanks for the read, OP
>>289969364NtaJust wanted to say you're a BASED bread appreciatorHere's my last loafs from a couple weeks ago
>>289957558Orcs should all be killed to deathPure scumMay slow and painful death find every orc in the dungeon and every orc outside of itMay orc children have to watch as their orc parent's heads explode like a balloon after being shot by an AR-15. Then may they get orc cancer and orc aids at the same timeI hope every orc in dungeon meshi has a bad day and is always hungry and never fullFucking faggots
>>289968778t. Shark
>>289956089I mean Caesar was captured by pirates once, it's a pretty funny story all things considered>Demands that they raise the ransom because he was insulted by how little he was going for>Spent the entire time bossing the pirates around like he owned the place and laughing with them about he was going to have them all crucified when he was free>It was not a joke
>>289969255Orcs hate elves so much they probably give them a specific category.
>>289923469>>289923500>>289923532I do wonder if Senshi's maintenance helped delay the inevitable collapse of the dungeon.Thistle should've been paying him, tbdesu.
>>289969462Based
>>289958179I went for a more gollumesque voice in my head
>>289957830marcillekeks
>>289955794He has fairly good relations wih the orcs, according to his backstory
>>289959155half-feet should just accept their fate as exotic sex slaves for taller races.
>>289956080Every human being in this thread agrees.
>>289969364I've made bread before. I just think Senshi was being very stupid when the orcs have already robbed him once and said to his face they're having a tough time food-wiseLike if there's no kid wandering around to shame the chief the orcs just take the bread and then the party is in orc jail
>>289958771>by the long lived racesevery fucking time
>>289958627>>289958908The use of "dung meshit" in two separate posts replying to the same post is an interesting insight into his what-passes-for-a-mind. Either 1) His seething is so strong that he's unable to refer to the series by its actual name and is compulsively forced to use the same derogatory nickname even when trying to samefag.2) His theory of mind is so weak that he actually believes that other people will believe that two (2) entire people would find "dung meshit" clever enough to not be too ashamed to hit Post.
>>289967890To be fair, the orc chief does bring that up but Marcille says they were pillaging on the surface first. Even kobolds (also demihumans) who live in fucking death valley don't have as bad of a rep as orcs do.
>>289955876What am even reading.
>>289959869Uooh?
>>289973470>they were pillaging on the surface first.Orcs only exist at all because a dungeon master was using the power of /that/ to do experiments, and then carelessly either forced them out or cut them loose or got killed. And the only surviving records from back then other than oral tradition are, wouldn't you know it, written by the long lives subspecies
>>289955989You have fried your dopamine receptors harder than I have mine.
>>289958535That fag has been at it since the anime because it was made by Trigger.
>>289956040>freshly stolenhehe
>>289975619That's important. If you want to replicate the dish, you have to steal the ingredients.
>>289956528>Orcs don't seem too evil here,>first thing they do is kill everyone
>>289976743Death is but a temporary inconvenience in this setting.
