Thanks for watching! We had so much fun diving into DnD content to make this video. There's so much more we didn't get the chance to cover! What other DnD media would you recommend watching?
She doesn't play DnD but she plays Wizardry, you can find an old post from her blog about the build of each Dungeon Meshi character would have in Wizardry. That interview is just shit and they asked a yes or no question about DnD, not about tabletop games in general.
but she said she plays wizardy a lot (a old school dungeon crawler) when she was a child, even the races are exactly the same as wizardry (and that's why kobolds are dogs)
Dungeon Meshi really reminds me of old Advance DnD in just the ways they navigate the dungeons and surviving in it. We didnt eat the monsters but there was so many times of clutch near death moments that this anime reminds me off and how we spent half of it half naked beating monsters to death with rusted swords and turning giant dead snakes into makeshift loot sacks.
I DO really like how D&D naturally builds in flaws for your characters, not just in backgrounds, but yes, in stats. Unless you 'roll your stats at home', you are very likely to roll some good and bad stats (or if you sensibly use point buy, you have to choose between being good at some things and bad at others, or very average at everything.) This character is also just that, a character, with a background and personality, which can have more flaws, which you can choose to relate to your stats or not!
It really feels like Dungeon Crawl Classics to me. There is a Fighter, Dwarf, Elf and Halfling. (Yes, those are all classes). The way they are forced to relly more on cunning and cenario interaction rather than pure uses of spells really sends home how it feels to play DCC.
DinD is a fantastic show. i was so blown away, as i am not a "normal anime guy", and don't really watch much or often. but DinD was binged over 2 days and i can't wait for the second season!
My headcannon is if Delicious in Dungeon just a game of DND then Senshi and Falin are the same player. Senshi and Laios get a long well and even share the same interests, and its really funny by the mininal interactions Senshi and Falin have with each other because that player would have to talk to themselves.
I love the idea of the ranger class, and like many feel that they are not getting the proper care in DnD 5e. The fact that you classified Senshi as a ranger, makes me happy.
there really are several moments in the show that remind me of DnD like marccille with the kraken and waterwalking spell that feels like it should not of worked but she rolled a 20 and the DM went fine and let it
Contrats on being the first ever video of a subscribed channel that did not appear in my subscriptions feed. :( Luckily the home tab recommended it to me, but that's only after I way done watching all the videos of channels I'm subscribed to.
this is not right, meshi is not an example of a D&D play, it is an example of a good writer a D&D game has multiple minds, each one pulling the game to a different way, sometimes fighting between them in meshi, every character has the same mind, the one of the author, and so the story plays smoot Also, characters in meshi are never in danger, you know that it's a wholesome story about eathing. I love meshi for what it is, and it is not a D&D game, by a long shoot.
Awesome video, also please make video about what if Gate anime has the US military with US Intel Community agencies replaced JSDF then send to the new dimension other than 'liberate' new places?
Paladin in my opinion. Or Fighter. He learns some magic during the show...so I thought Paladin. He's so nice and kind to others he seems to embody the 'Lawful Stupid ' tropes that Paladin fall into. 😅
Maybe Lily Orchard was right(Which I thought was impossible), maybe Dungeon Meshi is trash. Lily Orchard being right about something must mean the world is ending.
20:27 yes, but also wizardry EXTREMELY wizardry, with wiz 6 being cited as one of the biggest inspirations for it, as that game, unlike most previous entries, focused on a party trapped inside a dungeon, without a town to go back to
