i love the way yu highight the animator for a specific part and the brilliance they employed to pul off what they did. they deserve all the praise in the world
DUDE, I have reread the manga countless times but I did not notice the parallels between Falin and the dragon on the left eye and neck thing until you pointed it out. Wow, kudos to Ryoko Kui and the anime team
I can see how it would come off that way in this moment, but I hope you keep giving it a chance! It's really not that type of 'dark for the sake of being dark' story, in fact I'd say it just keeps getting funnier. A nuanced story involves darkness and light!
“How did they get above where they fell,” it was cut from the anime, and it was still subtle in the manga, but the trash compactor death room swung around like it was an elevator, so it must have moved up while it was crushing them.
There's also the fact that there's nothing really indicating that the walkway shot was immediately after walking out of the store house. It's always possible that they walked up some stairs to get somewhere that seemed safer to walk.
I haven't read the manga so I don't know what the mad mage's deal is but I *FUCKING LOVE* the weird morphing of his pupils when he starts using magic. It sort of reminds me of weird pupils in some animals, like the beaded slit pupils of geckos or the oblong pupils of goats and horses. Knowing how much attention to detail this series has for the anatomy and biology of monsters, I wouldn't be surprised if this had some actual cool reasoning behind it. Honestly I just really like weird pupils that aren't just the overused snake/feline vertical slit.
We haven’t seen much of him but I think it’s safe to say that I hate him probably more than I should I hate when characters get reunited just to get torn away in 2 minutes fuck the mad mage 🖕
Something to note about the ghosts is that in the previous episode they seemingly tried to stop Farlyn from going to the dragon, and in this episode they were standing in the way of the Mad Sorcerer. Together with the comment about how they're seemingly more intelligent closer to the city probably indicates there's some sort of conflict between them and the Mad Sorcerer.
yoo fr imagine if the mad sorecer is the one who made the dungeon(pretty implied from marcelle's reaction) and is causing their spirit to be trapped their so the ghosts actually help out since they hate the mage for trapping them there and hope that by helping they can be freed and rest in peace.
Honestly, I think that's on of the whole foundations for the character writing of the characters. If you're familar with the FLCL Punnet square for characters to be Mature adults, childish adults, mature kids, childish kids, I think dunmeshi has the same thing going on but with weirdness. Laois is a weird seeming weirdo, Marcille is a normal seeming weirdo, Senshi is a weird seeming normal, and Chilchuck is a Normal Normal, and i think you can extend this to the full cast to some extant. Chilchuck fills the vital role of just being a guy. He has his quirks, but he's basically exactly what you'd expect of, like, a middle aged guy who's a career adventurer.
@@Ezekiel_Alliumi really love when characters are just some guy lol. theres such an over abundance of big strong flashy heroic characters in the fantasy/adventure genre, that its such a breath of fresh air to me when a main role is filled by a middle-aged jaded average normal man who could be knocked down by a strong gust of wind 😂
@@gristen I love Chilchuck. Everyone needs to love Chilchuck. I'm glad we're getting to the part of the story where we'll be getting a better look at his depth as a character. Dungeon Meshi is a very special story because we have Chilchuck, whose past baggage and insecurities are just so incredibly real world, being a proper main character alongside Marcille, and his problems are still important and interesting to learn about and unpack. Farlin, Marcille, Senshi, Thistle, Kabru, a huge amount of the caste have incredibly fantasy backstories, insecurities and traumas, and Chilchuck still feels right at home and meaningful alongside them as like, a guy, and his role as a guy is even vital to the dynamic. He's a grounded, level headed character in a party with Marcille and Laios.
I was worried about Falin when we saw the skull for the first time 2 episodes ago and looked up the manga because I needed to confirm what happened. I put my fears to rest after reading a bit ahead and watching them reconnect. I stopped reading at that point and thought things were okay. They weren't.
Hey friend, things are gonna be daijobu in the end. I don't want to spoil it for you, so I'll leave it at that. I commend this story for putting the characters through such interesting and dangerous situations without actually offing and cutting them out of the narrative.
@@typicalasianguy1805 I expected that as well but not what happened after. The dark aspect resurrection got me spooked as well, maybe there are aftereffects
Though I had my suspicions about Falin's consciousness being merged with that of the dragon, I never caught those small, telling details from the previous episode, so thank you for pointing them out.
I think my favorite part of this episode was all the little details of the eyes. The simple transition of Chilchuck's eyes using a pillar to hide their movement makes it feel like he's taking a lot more time to run through his thoughts. Then Laios has his eyes darting around at the end of the episode, trying to piece together what everyone has said to him and find the correct response. Also unrelated, but I love seeing Leed slowly move from annoyance to genuine interest in Chilchuck's story the more he explains it. It's just really adorable.
Noticing that Wargs are with the orcs, and then also in the stomach of the red dragon- implying the dogs attacked/barked and got the attention of the orcs to evacuate. Blown away by the eye thing with Falin, as well as her grasping her neck! Insane detail. Kui put a lot of attention on Falin's eyes being open and closed, so it's interesting to me that there's symbolism with them being half open too. Aughhghghh this manga/show is so good. I was honestly a bit disappointed that the transformation body horror sequence was in silhouette, esp that more detail would really add to the horror, but watching your thoughts on it I realize how much it actually works really well. Great stuff.
So, I haven't read the manga or watched the anime in japanese, but that "three people are in danger here" line from Chilchuck came across to me as him discounting himself there - essentially saying that right now his friends' lives are so important to him that his usual self-perserving attitude dissappeared. He's so frantic and scared of the thought that they could die, and then not even be revived because of how deep in the dungeon they are.
Actually didn't catch the physical representations of the dragon in Falin pre-transformation in the show or the manga. Guily as charged: Binge reading manga without fully appreciating the art 😥
idk if the elf being a magician as opposed to a mage is an important distinction character wise, but on the off chance that it is, I would have prefered the english dub call them the Mad Magician. The alliteration is sweet, and we all know that the word mad is supposed to mean insanity in this context, so it works just as well as lunatic magician. Though maybe they went with mad mage for syllable count, either way, lunatic magician feels like a nothing burger of a name in english and its a mouthful to boot, so if i had to pick i definitely prefer mad mage.
Haha yeah I didn't want to get too into the weeds in the video, but while I'm not married to "lunatic magician" in particular for the reasons you've mentioned, the "magician" part definitely makes more sense because he's literally a court magician!
It's also likely a reference to the Mad Mage Halaster from Dungeons & Dragons, who dwells in the bottom layer of the game's biggest mega-dungeon, Undermountain, and serves as the antagonist of the *Dungeon of the Mad Mage* campaign.
I love Chilchuck's scream in dub. When I first watched it I replayed that part because it was hilarious. I also love the shot of Chilchuck sitting between Liaos' legs. With Liaos being a normal-sized human and Chilchuck being a Half-Foot, it looks like a son crying to his father.
Mad Mage, Lunatic Magician, both sounds kinda bad, even if it’s to make sense to say in the dub. The Mad Sorcerer is what the scanlators used and I’m sticking to that.
I love that the english calls him the mad mage because that calls to mind the dnd adventure waterdeep: dungeon of the mad mage, and reinforces that this is the most dnd thing ive ever seen.
Mad mage has more alliteration and rolls off the tongue in 2 syllables (which is why I like it), but it runs up against a Wizards of the Coast Dungeons and Dragons module, and we ain't got time for that kinda copyright stuff
The ingredients list is a brilliant touch. I'm not mad that it's missing, being distracted by reading would take away from focusing the visual appeal (or lack thereof) of the shots in the couple seconds they're on screen, but it works great for the manga and makes me want to read that too.
when chilcuck says three people are in danger here, he means laos, marcelle and senshi are in danger as he almost left them to safety and if he included himself he would feel pretty bad considering he had the option to leave at that point
i normally have a super long watchlist that i add subscribed videos to and watch eventually but yours i always watch the moment I see them. Really loving this ep by ep analysis
The "I have three people to worry about" is double meaningful (at least in my eyes) because*[spoilers for the manga]* he has three daughters. I mean it might mean nothing but to me is an interesting parallel since he does take something of a caretaker role for the group (not as noticeable has Senshi but in the small things)
From 1 to 12 Episode was so enjoy to watch but when episode 13 was so bad i watch until 20 and i feel like this anime now i have to drop this anime and waste my enjoyment that i can i watch better than that
@@swampjawn Yeah, both exist! I just wondered which version they meant because they didn't specify why they wanted you to check them out. Maybe so you can compare the different voice castings? Idk! Being a translator myself, I find the differences in translation choices fascinating, but that's a complete whole analysis on its own 🤷.
can we mention the animation of laios' eyes at the end when chilchuck talked him down, and laios was so shaken and guilty? 🥺 altho i wish they kept the adorably crooked position of his hands in his lap that he had in the manga
The scene inside the dragon skeleton was fantastic and I'm more impressed now with your breakdown. I hit my desk the moment the group was separated of Falin, I'm also getting invested in the characters.
Short life span will do that for you. You know in fantasy dwarfs and elf's are the same long life advanced technology. It's like 2 side of a coin. Also I like both thistle and the teleport boy Mithrun. First i thought they were a girl some waifus if u will. But now i like them because they forget to eat forget to go to the toilet and forget everything like an autist. Literary me.
@@airplanes_aren.t_real well a quick look at the wiki Donato the dad started courting her giving flowers at 15 years old and 17 years later they got married. I mean waiting half your life for an elf. Also they become teens at 80 years old. So with some math. teen age plus 8 years of studies to become a court magician plus the 17 years of wooing and giving flowers I would say she was 105 years old when she married a 32 year old Donato. and after Donato left the world(died of old age probably 50 years old) she dated an older gnome to basically retire.
It's just a Star Wars reference in all languages, I just happened to show it in Spanish. It's a line that's repeated several times throughout the Star Wars franchise and combined with the later scene that mimics the trash compactor scene from the first Star Wars movie, I'm pretty confident it's a deliberate reference.
@@swampjawn well, compacting rooms are a staple of dungeons/ruins so I'm not sure it was deliberate, but I see your point, everything can be a Star Wars reference just like evrything can be Jojo's reference.
Ok so for the english translation, there seems to be two different translations? Theres two set of subtitles and one follows the dub script i think, and one... isnt? im not sure why, but that second script seems much more accurate to the source material
Hell yeah! I really want them to finish the series! I watched the latest episode last week and had to pick up the book. I noticed the same differences you mentioned here and I cannot wait to watch season 2
your video breakdowns on dunmeshi had become something i'd always look forward after new episodes comes out, and this one i'm especially excited for!! your analysis is incredibly detailed and well-thought out, just practically reinforces my deep love for this series 💕💖 (also unrelated but i wanted to point out bc i'm So Normal about laios is that during the scene where chil finally breaks down and beg him to go back to the surface together, the second he pushed him to settle down and it cuts to a close up of his thighs, that was the fastest i've ever paused to look at a specific frame 👁👁💦)
9:48 (anime spoilers at this point, idk if it's been spilled by the latest ep?) I thought it could also be taken as him being worried about his daughters, if he died. They haven't been mentioned yet, and they're adults by now, but it would still be at the forefront of a father's mind, wouldn't it?
Chiller episode, definitely but definitely perplexing on the translation side. Not only in English, as in Italian there were several parts that made no sense at all and made me switch subs to English. I wonder what happened, there were some perplexing choices earlier too but this one was near incomprehensible at times... Hopefully it does not stay that way, but my optimism is waning episode by episode...
I mean, have you really been watching the series with the Italian subs? They are pretty clearly translated from the English subs, and in a pretty terrible way (didn't they translate "party" with "partito" in this one?). Just stick with the English subs and the Japanese dub, or with the Italian dub (since that one is translated by a different person altogether, and AFAIK it was translated from Japanese).
From what I've heard the translators are mostly working off the script rather than actually seeing the episode in advance so they're missing a lot of visual context. The English Subs and Dubs are probably different teams as well which is why you have circumstances where one side is right and the other isn't
I love the way you analyze the episodes. All the way from plot to translation issues, panels and animation. As a translation student, the attention to detail between the dialogs in the manga and the different languages makes me very excited😋
Ngl as chilchuck was opening his heart to the team I was a little surprised that Laois didn’t comfort or hug him. Needless to say the next episode addresses that, and it might be fighting the UA-cam-edit zoom from episode 1 in terms of my fav comedic shot
Oh I LOVE this channel. Great editing and insight and understanding (both of the narrative and animation itself). I'm very excited to watch the rest of what you've got, as well as your future analysis!
Yeah, the translation issues are not great, but I'm still fond of the performances here. At least fan subs can correct the issue, but I'm gonna keep watching the dub.
Has anyone noticed the ghosts are the people in the paintings. They look kind of familiar that way, just looking at the clothes, but that's just me looking too close, maybe.
I would not be surprised if you are correct. I kinda feel for the mad mage. I haven’t read the manga but I really think he just wants things to be the way they were. I wonder if Laios would be the one to get through to him.
I was personally very distressed by this episode, while I know it's scheduled for 24 episodes.. I was enjoying the lighthearted adventure. ( First anime i've ever watched where it suddenly has a tonal shift like this.. )
I watching all your dungeon meshi videos but the usual background music that starts @03:33 is so damn annoying and pervasive it has taken over the identity of your videos. Now when I think "lemme check out swamp jawn's new dungeon meshi video that crappy call center hold music plays in my head and I dont want to watch anymore
Do we know for sure that the mage is a “he”? I’m asking because since Japanese doesn’t have any pronouns or gendered nouns, it might be possible that the mage were a woman or maybe a gender neutral entity. Or I might’ve just missed the part where he was confirmed to be a “he”🤔
We do. I can't point to exactly where it's confirmed and I (and some translators) were very confused about it at first when reading it initially, but yeah he's a he. Elves just look very androgynous.
My biggest disappointment was that they didn't play the horn sound when the rolling hams arrived.
Oh yeah, and the horn sound would of been muffled out when sinking!

“How did they get above where they fell,” it was cut from the anime, and it was still subtle in the manga, but the trash compactor death room swung around like it was an elevator, so it must have moved up while it was crushing them.

So with some math. teen age plus 8 years of studies to become a court magician plus the 17 years of wooing and giving flowers I would say she was 105 years old when she married a 32 year old Donato. and after Donato left the world(died of old age probably 50 years old) she dated an older gnome to basically retire.
Also a donato a court historian at age 15? Really Imagine hiring a 24 year old to be a president or a president spokesman? Too young.
as a native spanish speaker I don't get the spanish dub joke, "tengo un mal presentimiento" it is a common phrase even real people use
It's just a Star Wars reference in all languages, I just happened to show it in Spanish. It's a line that's repeated several times throughout the Star Wars franchise and combined with the later scene that mimics the trash compactor scene from the first Star Wars movie, I'm pretty confident it's a deliberate reference.
@@swampjawn well, compacting rooms are a staple of dungeons/ruins so I'm not sure it was deliberate, but I see your point, everything can be a Star Wars reference just like evrything can be Jojo's reference.
Is it weird I’m looking forward to seeing Senshi on a boat so a “Sailor Senshi” pun can be made?
I loved Leed, she's so cute. I hope she gets more screentime.
Ok so for the english translation, there seems to be two different translations? Theres two set of subtitles and one follows the dub script i think, and one... isnt? im not sure why, but that second script seems much more accurate to the source material
Hell yeah! I really want them to finish the series! I watched the latest episode last week and had to pick up the book. I noticed the same differences you mentioned here and I cannot wait to watch season 2
your video breakdowns on dunmeshi had become something i'd always look forward after new episodes comes out, and this one i'm especially excited for!! your analysis is incredibly detailed and well-thought out, just practically reinforces my deep love for this series 💕💖
(also unrelated but i wanted to point out bc i'm So Normal about laios is that during the scene where chil finally breaks down and beg him to go back to the surface together, the second he pushed him to settle down and it cuts to a close up of his thighs, that was the fastest i've ever paused to look at a specific frame 👁👁💦)
The best time of the week.
Engagement
9:48 (anime spoilers at this point, idk if it's been spilled by the latest ep?)
I thought it could also be taken as him being worried about his daughters, if he died. They haven't been mentioned yet, and they're adults by now, but it would still be at the forefront of a father's mind, wouldn't it?
Chiller episode, definitely but definitely perplexing on the translation side. Not only in English, as in Italian there were several parts that made no sense at all and made me switch subs to English. I wonder what happened, there were some perplexing choices earlier too but this one was near incomprehensible at times...
Hopefully it does not stay that way, but my optimism is waning episode by episode...
I mean, have you really been watching the series with the Italian subs? They are pretty clearly translated from the English subs, and in a pretty terrible way (didn't they translate "party" with "partito" in this one?). Just stick with the English subs and the Japanese dub, or with the Italian dub (since that one is translated by a different person altogether, and AFAIK it was translated from Japanese).
Fair enough, but yes I have been. As not all the ones I've been watching it with are as proficient with English as I am unfortunately.
From what I've heard the translators are mostly working off the script rather than actually seeing the episode in advance so they're missing a lot of visual context.
The English Subs and Dubs are probably different teams as well which is why you have circumstances where one side is right and the other isn't
Always look forward to these videos 💚
YOOOOO Falin's eyes! I didn't put that together, thank you
I love the way you analyze the episodes. All the way from plot to translation issues, panels and animation. As a translation student, the attention to detail between the dialogs in the manga and the different languages makes me very excited😋
Love your videos bro ❤️ You always find little details that make me appreciate the series even more
Ngl as chilchuck was opening his heart to the team I was a little surprised that Laois didn’t comfort or hug him. Needless to say the next episode addresses that, and it might be fighting the UA-cam-edit zoom from episode 1 in terms of my fav comedic shot
9:51 _what_
Oh I LOVE this channel. Great editing and insight and understanding (both of the narrative and animation itself). I'm very excited to watch the rest of what you've got, as well as your future analysis!
Yeah, the translation issues are not great, but I'm still fond of the performances here. At least fan subs can correct the issue, but I'm gonna keep watching the dub.
English dub is so much better than the sub
Great eoisode not gonna lie orc chick pretty cute
Great video!
Has anyone noticed the ghosts are the people in the paintings. They look kind of familiar that way, just looking at the clothes, but that's just me looking too close, maybe.
I would not be surprised if you are correct. I kinda feel for the mad mage. I haven’t read the manga but I really think he just wants things to be the way they were. I wonder if Laios would be the one to get through to him.
5:33 yep, I caught that
NETFLIX HAs added GTO❤
GTO as in Great Teacher Onizuka?
@@pedropimenta896 yes
@@pedropimenta896 yes
Hmm, I thought that when chilchuck mentioned that he has three people to worry about, he was talking about his kids 🤔
im sad im only discovering your videos after watching episode 20, your breakdowns are great!
I was personally very distressed by this episode, while I know it's scheduled for 24 episodes.. I was enjoying the lighthearted adventure. ( First anime i've ever watched where it suddenly has a tonal shift like this.. )
Watch the spanish dub
OH SHIT HE DID IT LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! VAMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
se adelanto un poco
Lololol that was you!!
Next itll be time to teach him about the birds and the bees....that was not a joke 😂 no its not poor Chillchuck
Day... whatever of asking for that Namari conversation. I've lost hope.
Another STELLAR video breaking down a terrifying and complex ep. Can't wait for more!
I watching all your dungeon meshi videos but the usual background music that starts @03:33 is so damn annoying and pervasive it has taken over the identity of your videos. Now when I think "lemme check out swamp jawn's new dungeon meshi video that crappy call center hold music plays in my head and I dont want to watch anymore
I love your videos! Thank you for making them! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ
as an anime only (for now), i also recognized that taking a bath made senshi almost unrecognizable for the orcs!
Hey after this series recap can you review and do a very thero analyses on your lie in april anime and manga
No idea how Trigger is doing that, but I'm all in for the second cour with this level of quality. Looking forward to the next breakdown as well ✌🏼
But whos the Delicious in the dungeon
where do you find the rough drafts/key frames? where it says who made the frame
They took the scene were laios, chillchuck and senshi hug while falin is down 😢
Love the little foreshadowing you hide in those videos :)
I like how the eye of the mad mage, when they are angry, seem to create a Polycoria effect, like there are two eye on each eye instead of one
Do you now any ships!? :D
Great video!
what does the rolling ham means?
cmnt

Do we know for sure that the mage is a “he”? I’m asking because since Japanese doesn’t have any pronouns or gendered nouns, it might be possible that the mage were a woman or maybe a gender neutral entity.
Or I might’ve just missed the part where he was confirmed to be a “he”🤔
We do. I can't point to exactly where it's confirmed and I (and some translators) were very confused about it at first when reading it initially, but yeah he's a he. Elves just look very androgynous.
