ダンジョン飯 [Dungeon Meshi] #2
Delicious in Dungeon, Vol. 2
With the possibility of starvation as a constant companion, Laios' party continues advancing deeper into the Dungeon. The adventurers have made it to the third floor but only rotting zombies, ghastly spirits, living paintings, and golems await them--all of them absolutely inedible. After coming this far by adapting and learning how to live off the dubious bounties of the Dungeon, how will they manage when even the meanest monster won't make a decent meal?

I like the easy going pace of this book. It's essentially a slice of life in a dungeon and it gives you recipes for mimic soup or kelpie soap. The story is funny and engaging. The illustrations bring the best out of the story as well.

We've now moved past dungeon food being the main focus and we're getting more into the meat🍖 of the story with new characters and new info being introduced. The plot still revolves around food but we get more backstory to go with it. They're finding new food and meeting new "people" (are orcs people? is butter a carb?) and they're not just doing it because they're starving and low on supplies.
So many things in this series are just so unique and I love that. One of the highlights for me were the golems. I'm curious about the living paintings though, it seems there's a story there. Saddest part goes to the kelpie.
This volume wasn't as formulaic as the first so I have no problems continuing on.

Bonus points to the artist, being able to make be hungry for DRAWN food. Mah goodness.
(Greatly enjoying the creativity of this)
Meal plan from the volume (Spoilers)
-Simmered cabbage and turnip salad (using earth golems as walking gardens, love the creativity)
-Hanging out with orks and teaching them to make bread.
-Frying treasure bugs into jab, crackers and skewers
-Using ghosts to make sorbet (use multicultural holy water)
-palace cuisine (from a haunted magic painting that MIGHT be a checkoff's gun time-portal)
-Boiled mimic (they're a variety of crab in this universe).

This series is becoming an instant favourite. Mix Dungeons and Dragons with Top Chef and you get this. Awesome and very, very funny

I devoured this book as quickly as book one. Our adventure party gets a bit deeper into the dungeon and begin to have more meaningful interactions with the beings who dwell there, including an Orc family just trying to get by, golems which grow vegetables on their backs, and living paintings which might reveal more of the buried castle's history.

I am LOVING this manga series! This volume was such an excellent mix of character development, cooking segments and dungeon diving/fantasy fun... it's adorable and strangely wholesome. The characters are excellent. Senshi is INCREDIBLE and I would pretty much lay down my life for him because he is so passionate about cooking and being just precious in general.
The really excellent thing about this volume is that it starts to introduce the larger plot. We get glimpses of the characters backstories and some hints at the bigger, darker happenings in the dungeon as they get further into it. I'm really enjoying this series and remain keen to keep reading!

Un’esplosione di originalità, dai personaggi adorabili, ai mostri che incontrano, dalle ricette all’ambientazione del labirinto. Se mano a mano che si va avanti si aggiungono anche elementi più “dark” allora sarò completamente soddisfatta 👁️👅👁️

This was lovely and fun! I wish the story would move a little faster (that poor girl eaten by the dragon will die long before they come to her rescue if things go like that), but I am enjoying the ride, their interpersonal relations, their shenenigans and cute scenes together.

3.75 stars. This volume really breaks away from the exact structure from the first volume, which is what I was hoping it would do. The characters really play off of each other well in this volume and their interactions do make this one a fun series to read. Glad I continued with the second volume on this one!

A great second installment that continues the fun cooking conceit while expanding the backstory of the party without detracting from either component of the series.

i am continuously amused by the queer autistic white boy and how far he will go to eat strange gourmet stuff

The best manga that has ever been written about man-eating plant tart.

A fun, hilarious romp that had me in stitches. Lots of personality development for all of the characters in this volume. Each of them gets a chapter that focuses on their struggles and skill sets in this volume.
Also I'm intrigued about what goes on behind the scenes of the Dungeon. I feel like Ryoko Kui is setting up some major plot points for future story developments.
Especially in the chapter where Laios goes inside the living picture. I feel like there's a lot more to explore in that chapter, than first meets the eye.
Really enjoying this series so far.

La imaginación de Ryoko Kui es desbordante. Cómo es capaz de hilar tan fino sobre ecología, alimentación y tropos fantásticos sin despeinarse.
Aquí se nos habla de huertos urbanos, de nuestro papel dentro de la naturaleza, de la capacidad para sobreponernos y de la importancia de los autocuidados. Sé que parece exagerado, pero no lo es.
Incluso en este tomo dos ya se nota una evolución en el apartado gráfico. La composición de la página es maravillosa y las ilustraciones que acompañan a cada capítulo son pequeñas obras de arte.
De verdad, recomiendo mucho este manga.

This Volume 2 broke the mold that Vol 1 followed as it introduced the characters. Vol 2 had many creative twists and unexpected turns, along with some interesting foreshadowing and the-past-of-the-dungeon exploration. I appreciated how the author didn't skim past "the level with little food," and stayed with the setting to create unexpected recipes for non-food creations. Thought-provoking mysteries, grudging allies, traitorous friends, and cute humor.

Less eating monsters and more getting to know the characters and the world. But still a lot of fun.

Another fun issue, and nice to learn a little bit more about each of the characters.
It was cool to see them all kinda having their moments both in the sun and in the shade. I liked the teamwork but also the misadventures that always left them with a tasty meal XD
Very cute but also just a great sense of fun and adventure.

This series is super fun, I am forever the magic-explosion-first-talk-later elf girl, and that making of "holy water" (WHICH GOT TURNED INTO ICE CREAM VIA GHOSTS THIS SERIES IS AMAZING) is so amazingly D&D it made me laugh out loud.

Genial! Alkoholische Gärung ist Nekromantie!! Ich habe es immer gewusst....
Band 2 begeistert wieder mit extrem witzigen Ideen, allerdings schlägt er - teils unterschwellig, teils auch eher offensichtlich - auch ernstere Töne an.

I'm absolutely LOVING this series so far. It really feels like it might get darker. I'm so interested to see where it will go. Will we learn more about the prince who became king in the paintings?

I love it when a series embraces its weirdness and makes it a part of its element. Dungeon Meshi has an innocent but wacky humor, which brings out the fire and life in it.

Me gusta muchísimo que se dé tanta información sobre cada criatura de la mazmorra!! Me leería una enciclopedia entera solo de eso 😭
