After watching the first couple of episodes, my wife and I were considering having our 8-year-old watch it with us. Then I noticed the TV-MA rating.

Not looking for spoilers, but like, is the show gonna take a bit of a turn, eventually? There hasn't been anything CLOSE to TV-M-worth thus far, in my mind.

Otherwise, it may try to escape its pen a go feral, living in some hole in the ground that it calls a "dungeon".

Dungeon Meshi is a well liked manga, and an adaptation by Studio Trigger is now airing. If you haven't picked this one up, consider joining us. Both for fun and as a way of contributing to activity on Lemmy.

We now arrive on the third level proper. As it turns out, this is where Senshi lives! He ropes the gang into helping with some totally normal gardening. We also get to learn what kind of person he really is.

Something some of you may have noticed... The foreshadowing has really started ramping up. Many places in the dungeon feature depictions of a winged lion, and it is appearing more and more. What might it mean?

Some long form writing by Sakugablog about the first three episodes of the show. Lots of insight into the production/animation side of Trigger and how a show like this is made.

The party is now on the third level of the dungeon, and we see the first multi-chapter mini-arc from the manga adapted into single episode. Laios and his party have to get past a room full of magical, moving, hostile suits of armor. How will they pull it off? What will they learn about this monster?

Laios very much wants to know, what living suits of armor taste like. The rest of the gang is pretty sure they're just normal metal with a spell cast upon them. But are they?
