■ 🕑 8. Dungeon Meshi
Fairly generic fantasy dungeon explorer anime is mixed with a fairly
generic cooking anime. Neither of them would be worth watching on their
own merits, but this combination seems promising.
Art is nice, setting is fine enough (but again, generic). Character
designs are nothing to write home about. The attention paid to the
ecosystem of the dungeon and anatomy of the monsters is pretty unique.
This seems more promising than the magical girl ecchi.
For people who are fans of fantasy settings, I think Made in Abyss is a
more interesting current franchise, and at large, Record of Lodoss War
is the best LotR/DnD-inspired story.
