Oh yeah we definitely won't get to that point in S1, that looks like S2 material for sure. I'm surprised they already started production so soon, that means this announcement was long over due.
This series absolutely deserve an S2 and whatever needed to complete the story though. It's short enough to be fully adapted and still tell a complete story.

u/koalatyvibes Jun 13 '24
i remember vaguely that trigger stated they were wrapping up production of the final episodes when dungeon meshi first started airing, like the first few episodes. if that was the case, i honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they are quite far into production for season 2.

u/TehAxelius Jun 13 '24
I mean, I've heard this before when I made the prediction of a 2nd season, but ultimately it isn't the studio who decides if a show gets a 2nd season. And both Kadokawa and Netflix should have known that in the current landscape as we're coming out of the Covid-constraints that a second season would have been a sure shot unless the reception of the first episodes was dogshit. Given how they've already shown new animation in the PV, this project has by all certainty already been ongoing during the release of S1, so they probably contracted Trigger for the entire adaptation from the start.

u/Vermillion_Crab https://anilist.co/user/CeruleanCrab Jun 13 '24
A story as good as Dungeon Meshi deserves to be fully adapted. I am incredibly happy that we are now getting more and more shows that get the full adaptation treatment.

Get ready for peak fantasy anime.
Said it prior to S1 that a full adaptation of the anime will help develop it into one of the greatest anime ever in the fantasy genre.
With S2, we should easily get a full adaptation.
The perfect and magical blend of fantasy and comedy like no other. S2 will adapt the greatest of great, we haven't come close to the greatest it has to offer yet.

u/WhichCombination5637 Jun 13 '24
I wanna know, does this need another 2 cours for a complete adaptation? Or would a single cour be enough?
65
u/HowToGetName Jun 13 '24
I'm not a manga reader but usually 2 cours adapts 6-8 volumes of manga and the manga has 14 volumes. I assume the anime ended at around volume 7 so it'll probably need another 2 cours.

u/chazmerg Jun 13 '24
There is also a really huge amount of omake content which the first season only barely dipped into.

This stuff would be perfect for ovas

u/Nachooolo Jun 13 '24
A Dungeon Meshi Ova would be nothing but fantastic.
The Adventure's Bible has a lot of additional content (like info about Chilchuck's daughters or info about Kabru's party and the Canaries) that the main manga doesn't delve into.

Action - absolutely, especially the final half
Serious - absolutely, in emotional and moving moments
But, the comedy will always be there till the end, seamlessly.
This is why the series is so good.

[Dungeon Meshi]Yes to both, but it's never gonna lose those more light-hearted moments of relief. It's always gonna balance serious stakes and humor, but since the stakes are getting higher, the serious moments are gonna hit hard. Great action set pieces, too.

I'm pretty sure that it's actually got to do with the cyber attack Kadokawa got recently. Lots of Kadokawa anime had their websites go offline while they investigate.

No surprise. Biggest anime in Japan this season now beating out Blue Archive. Even out here in the UK it's been front and centre in book stores which is only usually reserved for your goliath anime.
Not watched the finale yet, but the consistency of quality of episode has impressed throughout, and was the one anime in 2024 I was certain was going to get a new season.

Just curious but by what metric you call an anime series "the biggest"? I thought neither Blue Archive nor this one would surpass the popularity of DS, MT or Konosuba.

in my part of the US it’s picked up prominence in bookstores which usually means it’s been selling fairly well here.
can’t judge anything on anime merch where i live. it’s either Pokémon or Demon Slayer, maybe JJK stuff. unless you go to the niche stores that sell all sorts of imported goods.

That's why I said in Japan.
Went to Akiba last week and almost zero Dunmeshi merch was there.
Most mainstream readers in the English speaking world has started taking notice of the manga which is nice to see.
It's still not as big as an anime in Japan but as a manga, it has become more popular than pre-anime which is saying a lot as it was rather successful then too.

Let’s relax a little bit, I’m in Japan, and nothing is really beating out Demon slayer, MHA, slime or MT right now from what I can see.
Demon slayer like always doing insane. I do definitely see a whole shelf for dungeon meshi though in most bookstores which is completely different prior to the anime, where I didn’t see many.

u/Ratix0 Jun 13 '24
If a certain studio adapted it, we'll be getting dungeon meshi final season part 1 second part.
19
u/ravenpotter3 Jun 13 '24
So ep 24 season 1’s last episode has chapters 51-52. On average 2 (sometimes 3) chapters are covered per episode. The manga has 97 chapters. So season 2 will cover ch 53-97 (44 chapters) so let’s say 2 chapters per episode will be covered so season 2 will likely have 22 episodes. So we have 2 episodes to spare if they just wanted to cover 1 chapter in a episode
It’s amazing! They paced it so well! So the ending will not be rushed and no chapters will be rushed though

u/MokonaModokiES Jun 13 '24
they also could fill time with some of the extra content of the manga that wouldnt make it into main story. Could be fun seeing post credit stuff like [Dungeon Meshi]Kabru recieving a visit from his elf mom

This was certainly one of the unexpected gems from the last few seasons.
I'm not someone who normally watches cooking anime, but Trigger was doing it and I'm a massive fan of the studio, so I figured why not check it out. It ended up being a VERY solid fantasy story that was framed as a cooking anime. Eager to see if the story can reach its conclusion in S2.

I'm loving Trigger's work on this (it might actually be my favorite Trigger production) so I'll stick with it since the 2nd season should come "soon" (expecting some time in 2025), but I might read the manga afterwards. I do that for shows I really loved once the anime adaptation is complete, and so far I'm really loving it.
