    I ran across this manga and saved it for later, but now I'll probably just wait and watch this instead.

    I'd love a dungeon diving mystery adventure story like made in abyss but with less horribly hurting children and less pervert gaze at aforementioned children. That'd be more ideal.


    Have you heard of Dungeon Meshi/Delicious in Dungeon? Our protagnists are going to eat their way through the dungeon come hell or high water. Also it has some of the best art and fantasy character design out there, point blank.

    Yes that's exactly the sort of thing I'm talking about, dungeon meshi rules

    Now I want to read this but I hate anime/manga with depictions of delicious food because it makes me constantly hungry while watching/reading it.

    This will happen, but power through Friend. Not only is the series often deeply funny, it's got an incredibly well realized world - our protagonists win through actually understanding monster biology and the issues it would have, the reason there's a fucking crazy dungeon actually makes sense...
    Just go! Read it! It's so good!

    I'm glad I listened, I love this

    I had a feeling you'd dig it. It honestly does remind me of the Culture novels or similar works in that you can tell that a HUGE amount of effort has gone into planning the world, understanding the world, and it's consequences. Also if you're early on, it just gets better!

    I also suggest looking up the author's Daydream Hour bits she does - they're sketch compliations etc which show some of her behind the scenes work, and they're amazing. For an example, she'll dress characters in each others outfits to make sure characters remain recongizable, she'll draw just the eyes and noses (for exactly the same reason), she'll even do the characters as different races to show how they'd look. Which is just an amazing level of detail and effort.


    Ahhh! it's so good. It's also, sadly probably coming towards an end but i will be avidly following whatever she does next.

    The characterization of all of the characters are consistently adorable and I love how it manages to be this dungeon crawl manga that is actually about nutrition and ecology. You really get a sense of the author's deep love of biology.

    I cant wait for Winky's mind to get blown by that late reveal that's all over the screenshots they're posting.
    The fact that Marcielle is a Half-Elf and it's been visibly obvious by her ears this entire fucking time.

    I know, but the author clearly planned it and it's one of the best parts because unless you're paying attention it'll slip right past you and then bam and you're just like Ryōko Kui you magnificent bastard!

    It's great. Speaking of which, we should have a new chapter very soon.

    The Holy Grail of Eris is also quite good. Drama centered around a relatively sheltered noble girl trying to save her family and getting into some deep shit about it, and a ghost linked to her that is a lady who is basically the exact opposite ot her in terms of nobility.

    I just read through this, and it's great when it's doing the main plot or the other subplots directly related to Connie, but I think it could do with a lot less of the secondary/tertiary plots, there is just too much to keep track of, and it feels like there's a couple of new characters get introduced pretty much every chapter. Reading it all in one solid go I could just about keep up, but I am pretty confident that reading it as it gets released I'm going to be totally lost.

    All that said, I continue to be a big sucker for:

    so I am definitely in it to watch that happen.


    Unrelated, but worth a look: "Ah, My Job-Hunting Goddess" is a spinoff of Ah, My Goddess -- I've not read the original but I know who the characters are anyway just through osmosis; this is a story about them trying to get jobs and Belldandy being bad at interviews. I'm not sure how accurately it reflects that actual Japanese job market but it's pretty lightweight fun.

    (edit, oh, and the latest Nozaki-Kun had me laughing so much I had to try and explain why it's funny to people within earshot, which is _not_ particularly easy given how much context is going on there)

    The manga absolutely gives me the feeling that it's going to be one of those things where there's like four separate plots going on at the same time until they all crash together in a gigantic mega-clusterfuck.

    I have no trouble keeping up, but I was raised by reading fantasy novels in a library that had a ton of missing parts of series so I got pretty good at both extrapolating things from context and remembering characters that haven't appeared in a while.
