I thought the armor was real armor picked up by the mollusks (like hermit crabs) but later found out in the manga that their shells naturally look like knight armor (more like corals).
This episode serves as a wonderful introduction to what dungeon meshi truly does better than most fantasy, making each and every part of the world fit together better than “oh it’s powered by magic” by providing an ecological perspective. It also fully introduces a major part of the character of Laios, his never ending fascination with monsters and desire to learn all he can about them. I hope as the episodes go by you both continue to be invested in the world and characters so you can look back and appreciate the earlier episodes even more.
You misunderstood at the end, he isn’t saying that they find armour themselves, the armour is literally a shell that they grow around themselves, that’s why almost all of the colonies look exactly the same.
Your reaction to this show is already one of my absolute favourite reaction series, I love your ability to engage with the premise and your interest in the setting. I really hope you continue to stick with this series. Some of them might take some time, but all your questions will be answered!
I think you guys are going to really enjoy this series. I stumbled upon the manga several years ago and it's been my favorite ever since. The anime is very faithful to the manga (a lot of things are straight panels into shots) though some details do get left out to save time in the episodes. I'll hint that things do get more serious, in this episode you saw the living armors kill several people. The show is deceptive about how deep it is at the start. Pick at the details, make theories, have fun. Avoid spoilers! Count how many hairstyles Marcille has 😂
27:38 ngl that sounded kinda sad... I feel like once you make your hobby a job feels like ok this is the best outcome... but now that you said it like that kinda hit me xD for example I'm trying to live as a videogame programmer because I like to make some games code, lear new stuff, etc etc but if I made it... would I ever feel like ok I should do something else because I shouldn't "work" rn. idk I just felt a bit down with all that thoughts xD
Or you could be a regular programmer and do games as a hobby, that way if you want to blame the code, you can always blame the job, but if you praise it, you praise the hobby.
This episode is when the author started cooking for real. It'll meander a little until roughly halfway through the season and the story will pick up drastically and dramatically from there. I am so excited to see you react and discuss it!
Meander? I disagree. As someone who is reading it and reaching the end game, I think the beginning episodes are still absolutely wonderful and set up the the rest of the series fantastically. Theres still joy in the simplicity, and the early stories are still compelling. The rest of the series is compelling just cuz of how good these ones are
@@BelBelle468 I don't know where the meandering is coming from. The pre red dragon part is world and character building. It has what is left of the original party getting to learn how to work with Shenshi and vice versa. It also sprinkles in themes and plot points that grow as the series progress. It avoids exposition dumps by having characters bring up topics naturally and explain them naturally.
Glad you guys are enjoying it. The show continues to just get better as the episodes go on, so looking forward to see what you guys think as it goes on. BTW, I binged your guys Steins;Gate reaction last week and it was amazing.
I never wanted to try mussels either, but a friend sitting next to me ordered them, and they surprisingly very good. Honestly, like a better chicken. Might depend on the place that makes them though, like everything else.
I'm actually happy that most of your question are spot on about the lore, magic system, and character's background, which also are gonna be answered in the future.
Since you seem to be enjoying this and Frieren, you might like these two series: Mushishi and Kino's Journey (Kino no Tabi) if you haven't seen them. And if you want something warm and fuzzy, Skip And Loafer is pretty tight.
So ya know, your thumbnail....reads "Delicious In Dung", because of where the "1x 3" is. I think that's a step too far even for Laios, though it might summon a certain "Loathsome" Elden Ring character.
oot.. hey Auto Save.. do you know that Link Click is the most well written recent anime that community anime watcher really slept on it so bad? I hope this channel of all reactors i watched will give them a shot.
I love the character design of Dungeon Meshi. Japanese anime has big eyes, the same faces, and no personality, but this anime is Disney-like and expressive. And Marsil changes her hairstyle 36 times in 24 episodes. It's also great that it has a symphonic theme song like Indiana Jones or Star Wars, which is rare for an anime, and I love it.
No name? Maybe if you only know or follow a few big name battle shounen series or something which air on TV overseas in your country. This is an extremely well-known and successful series in Japan.

The monster species is already named "living armor." They just reclassified the taxonomy from magic construct to mollusk.

I’m glad you’re watching this. Having Frieren, Apothecary Diaries, and Dungeon Meshi back to back this year was an amazing run.
It's been a good year, for sure
Anna: They look a lot like they could wake up any second.
Also Anna, surprised pikachu face when they do.
I think it was more the, you know, sword through the throat
You misunderstood at the end, he isn’t saying that they find armour themselves, the armour is literally a shell that they grow around themselves, that’s why almost all of the colonies look exactly the same.
This is the episode that made me really love this show. It’s so damn creative
The miniature always makes me chuckle
"Delicious in DUNG" hahaha
The loathsome Dung eater
Its funny how well you guys can predict this show. I wont say which prediction was correct but you'll be surprised how it's handled regardless
The animation really has that Trigger look in this episode.
The dragon is straight out of Little Witch Academia, so any episode with it being featured just strongly reminds me of the studio.
Laois is such a enjoyable highlight MC character!
Notice Marcille hair changes every episode
Delicious in Dungeon - the only place to get your fix for dwarven panty shots.

"Cooking", heh

@@BelBelle468 nono, I agree they are excellent and necessary for the story, but they don't have the same intensity as the latter half of the season.

Yeah, it wasn't until at least episode 5 that I really got hooked. It gets really good after that.

BTW, I binged your guys Steins;Gate reaction last week and it was amazing.
I love how into the speculations you are already, can't wait for more ingredients as the story continues for your ultimate dish ;)

No character in fiction has suffered as much as Marcille
Not the Delicious Dung thumbnail
Why are the subtitles changing so much of the meaning
They use the wrong sub
@@DaGoldFthey need to watch dubbbb
Since you seem to be enjoying this and Frieren, you might like these two series: Mushishi and Kino's Journey (Kino no Tabi) if you haven't seen them.
And if you want something warm and fuzzy, Skip And Loafer is pretty tight.
You want senshi to use magic for cooking that’s a sin
I really hope someday they start foodwars and dr stone those are some classic animes with lot of lore😊
*Delicious in Dung*
You did not think that thumbnail through, did ya?
Ah I wanted to point out, you may be using the subtitles for the English dub, not the Japanese to English subtitles.
29:44 You guys should definitely watch Food Wars some day.
Good job for Anna in not spoiling it for Ben when explaining what it's about 😆
So ya know, your thumbnail....reads "Delicious In Dung", because of where the "1x 3" is. I think that's a step too far even for Laios, though it might summon a certain "Loathsome" Elden Ring character.

Food Wars is PHENOMENAL, and I would LOVE to see you react to it 😂
The translation is so weird..
what are these noname shows? wtf, plz choose more carefully
No name? Maybe if you only know or follow a few big name battle shounen series or something which air on TV overseas in your country. This is an extremely well-known and successful series in Japan.
This anime/manga is really high quality so idk what ur talking about. It’s not generic anime slop..
