The comedy gets more and more insane with every episode.
It is a nice and refreshing take on the fantasy genre.
Delicious in Dungeon (Dungeon Meshi) has been a huge hit recently. While at first, some people weren't sold on the anime, with more episodes released, many changed their minds. The series is now one of the most popular this season, with many new fans getting into it. This can be attributed to many things — but the main one is that it just gets better and better.
Fans weren't completely sold on the premiere
While the premiere for Delicious in Dungeon was already good, many weren't sold on it initially. The bizarre sense of comedy in the anime and uncertainty about the genres of the series made many fans wary. On one hand, the anime is a cooking-related comedy which focuses on cooking seemingly inedible monsters. On the other hand, it's a fantasy adventure in the dungeon — the mix of genres is somewhat odd.
Some fans were worried that the anime is going to become more serious when it really doesn't need to. Thankfully, that ended up not being the case — the anime is still as light-hearted as it initially was.
Comedies that mainly do one specific thing tend to be very hit or miss with people. That said, Delicious in Dungeon is definitely a hit with most otaku. The premise is crazy, but you get into it very quickly, and the comedic timing and reactions of characters support the humor very well.
Every episode is better than the last one
With every episode, the humor seems to ramp up the insanity of the things main characters end up eating. Episode 7 actually shocks the fans with how quick the characters are to eat a parasitic worm — which they cooked akin to real-life unagi, or freshwater eel. Except Laios, of course, who ended up eating the worm raw.
Predictably, he got sick because of getting infested with the parasite. This just shows how insane the anime is, and while this was certainly disgusting, fans couldn't help but love to see how far it goes with its jokes.
Every week it seems that it's going to be hard to top whatever the characters ended up eating the last week, and every time fans are proven wrong. Delicious in Dungeon constantly one-ups itself, and this keeps being a nice way to keep the anime not stale for the viewers.
A more refreshing take on the fantasy genre
As fans watch further, they fall in love with the setting and the characters. With how many fantasy anime focus on settings inspired by PC games, Delicious in Dungeon is strikingly different. The setting very much reminds people of Dungeons & Dragons, which gives the anime a "classic" feel — the humor and the sense of adventure is truly timeless.
Laios really didn't think his actions through in episode 7.
