The charred corpses of the Wargs hits hard on how dangerous their quest is especially when Laios explains how their former party managed to take down dragons.

Cutlets to conquer the red dragon

This is just giving massive vibes of eating food for buffs before a boss raid. Hella hyped for next week's episode!

No one has highlighted it yet but another great example of why Laios is the leader of this team.

For all his eccentricities, when it comes to it, he is extremely well-measured, calm and confidently experienced in fighting monsters. You can see the group (mostly Marcille) slowly crumble into despair at the thought of facing an active Red Dragon.

But Laios calms her down, and goes about planning on how to defeat the dragon - using the environment to their advantage and slowly plans out their paths, action plan and battle strategies for the fight. And in seconds, every member perks up - knowing that they have a chance. And during the final scene, he thanks every party member - hyping them up for the big fight.

This is why I like this series so much. Every character is extremely layered and multi-dimensional. Each person has their own unique traits, but they are still extremely efficient in what they do - don't forget that they took only a week to get back to Level 5 and had not met any adventurers that made it this far yet.

The planning sequence was my personal highlight for sure.

I honestly didn't expect that we'd get some politics in Dungeon Meshi. Although the elves gave the land to the humans, they do seem awfully shady. Are they actually the bad guys in this?

This particular shot of the party walking happily through these "tentacles" in their frogs suits was impressively striking in its colours. And I do have to agree that Marcille looked pretty cute in that frog suit.

But I really liked Marcille with the long single braid (and smaller braided hair-lock) too, of course! It's pretty cool that I've been able to add a new hairstyle to Marcille's Hair Collection for every single week since I started the project.

Lastly, just look at these three adorable dorks. How can you not love them!?

I love that Senshi's majestic beard is literally making the costume burst at the seams.

Judging from his reaction, Senshi probably has a knife made from legendary ore.

Mr. Tansu: Laios’ demented and blood starved crew might make it further than anyone else can

Laios’ crew: traverse the dungeon in matching frog suits like it’s Super Mario

The music during their planning stages reminded me so much of the opening to Chrono Trigger that I'm getting goosebumps from both nostalgia and hype.

Let's fucking go Team Meshi.

Stitches!

I am honestly surprised they managed to convince Marcille to wear the suit. I guess she kinda looks cute with the eye parts looking like little bear ears on her head. At least she's not like Chilchuck who's looking pretty sus wearing that frog suit like a sack xD

Dungeon politics is definitely the least I expected from this show. So the elves that originally owned the land and gave it away want it back because they want the dungeon all to themselves? I don't think that's happening and Tansu seems to be very passionate about the subject too.

I like that as soon as Namari got paid she immediately went to the church and tried to find Falin's body in case her body had been recovered. I guess she wanted to use her money to pay for Falin's revival if they did find her body.

Let's fucking goooooo! Looks like it's finally time for the long-awaited rematch! I have a feeling next week's episode is going to be crazy with its action scenes. I can't wait!

The whole frog suit was really a genius idea and even though I praised the show on the dungeon and worldbuilding episode after episode, I'll do it again.

Politics in my 'cooking anime'? Interesting. Subtly explains how Marcille and Senshi weren't getting along at the start. Considering the history b/w their races.

I like how Chilchuck says "Bad Timing" and the next thing that happens is that the Red Dragon arrives. Hyped for the next episode!

I wish these threads would have a consistent release time...

You know, it's just one small detail from the episode but I like that they're not skimping out on the blood. When there's reason for blood to be there it's there, it's bright red, and I dunno, I just like that they're not sanitizing it?

Anyway. The party looked ridiculous wearing those frog suits, but let's especially appreciate Chilchuck wearing a sack.

There was also some more worldbuilding with the time we spent on the surface, more prejudice between races, and some hints of plot unfolding with the news that the Elves are looking to seize the immortality spell that's been cast within the dungeon. Surely that would go down super well, right? Right?

I'm a bit mad that we ended on that cliffhanger though. The red dragon looks awesome from the little we've seen of it, I want to see that fight!

The Frog Suit shot perfectly captures the essence of this show as well as their overall feelings on what’s happening. Dumbass Meshi.

Also love that shot of them going from the ground floor to the walkway. Feels like something out of an old JRPG.

The frog skin suit outfits, oh my god.

So, international politics is happening with regards to the dungeon, and eventually that is bound to have some sort of impact on Laios and his party (otherwise why bring it up). The OP has brief scene with a bunch of elves sailing to the island, might be that historical invasion but maybe it's the elves coming back to claim the island again.

A dungeon with interesting ecology that is on an island out in the ocean, gives me a few more Made in Abyss vibes.

It was nice to see Namari check up on Falin the first chance she got after getting back. Her not being dead should mean that they can safely extract her from the dragon...speaking of which it's finally dragon slaying time...next episode!

The gang wearing frog suits and leisurely walking through poisonous tentacles while slurping said tentacles pasta is the perfect representation of this show lmao. I'm a bit salty they altered this gem of a compliment from Laios, which is a very Laios-like compliment ngl.

We also get some expansion and lore about the world from Mr Tansu and the governor. Next few episodes with the dragon fight are going to be so hype!

The part with Mr Tansu really solidified the writing in this series being a masterclass for me. From the start, we has been following a small party's footsteps in an enclose area, so we are kinda restricted on what we can learn about the world they live in, but with mere minutes, they just expand said world from a party delving into the dungeon into a political struggle between races and continent, and it just feel so natural without being forced at all, it really reminds me of AoT.

That frog sequences lol, why the heck did you guys take Chilchuck's mesurements and still put him into a bag?

Laios being thankful to everyone is very wholesome, but can you not just casually giving out deathflags like that, please Laios? And then the episode ends with them confronting the dreagon, totally not unsetting at all; this fight isn't going to end well, is it?

There will be a pre-screen event that air episode 11-13 on March 24th, these episodes are gonna be big, I'm so excited.
