    I am really appreciating the vibe of this show. This shows a vibrant ecosystem within each layer of the dungeon, coupled with a variety of problems that can be solved in a multitude of ways.

    I wouldn’t have expected that the mandrake could be harvested and eaten by just cutting off their heads. I also didn’t expect that they would show the screamed-out one to be superior.

    One point they are making is the strength of the main characters. At the beginning you see that they are initially holding their own against a large dragon, before they fail. Now the party’s strength seems to be compared against adventurers at each stage. So far, the party has had the occasional mistake, but hasn’t faced anything significantly challenging. It will be interesting to see what the party’s limits are and how they overcome them.

      They all have flaws, despite being pretty high level adventurers. They deal with death fairly casually, Senshi has been around living off the dungeon for a decade… And any more would be spoilers.

      It only gets better. Getting to know these characters (and several others that we will meet) is one of my favorite aspects of the manga. In this episode we saw Marcys vulnerable and naive side for the first time, and you can be sure there’s more to Laios and Chilchuck, as well.
