WAku's manga / #Action(72)

My God. Wow. First and foremost, the setting is to die for as an enthusiast for post-apocalyptic and dystopian genres. I love how Sak's circumstances were a part of the "school's" scheme to create him into a weapon that will slave under them as well as both Lima and Sak's backstory that shaped them into who they are in that present setting. You can see how they've developed because of how they grew up in this war-torn country. From their mannerisms down to their reflexes, it's a charm that many characters do not possess. I can't emphasize more how in love I am with how they opened their hearts up to each other and how their feelings and thoughts are actually telepathically connected subconsciously with one another. THAT was what made Sak's charm grow. The fact that he thinks as though he was born to be for his caller, Lima, who never thought of him as something weird albeit their relationship was born from toxicity, it seems as though as they reached out to the other contradictory to their drowning state, they inadvertently pull each other out of their miserable present, making them realize just how terrible their current situation is making them want to struggle and convulse themselves out of murky waters because of each other. I love their chemistry so much. The relationship between the side characters can be expanded more but it wasn't explicitly stated. It was interesting because their paradoxical twisted desire for the greater good never made sense to the moral compass of Lima who was more capable of understanding and realizing just how deluded the officials of the school were.

AAAAAAAAAAAAA. This manga isn't your typical manga about venturing into dungeons. To begin, the world that is built around this manga is quite something; it is self-sufficient and not dull per se. Another thing is the monsters! The monsters I see from other manhwas and mangas are repetitive, lackluster, and inadequate in terms of variety: Dungeon Meshi has many different monsters and races that seethe into that fantasy genre. The main characters' personalities aren't dull and they have the depth, or rather, drive that most characters of a manga are missing. Their desire is clearly understood why they're adventuring be it of their own accord or compelled due to their circumstances. Each character has their own quirks and don't get me started on their design because the different anatomy of the different races are illustrated without bias nor need to cater to perfection or fanservice. Each of them has its strengths and limitations but they gladly help each other out sometimes inadvertently because of their natural identity of just being themselves. This eccentric manga lured me into reading it with its cute elements and simplistic ideas at the beginning with the placard of "Cutesy Manga that gives unusual recipes for dishes made from monsters in a dungeon," but no. This manga goes deeper beyond that consensus. Revealing the origins of the dungeon: how it came to be, why monsters keep on appearing out of nowhere, what mysterious beings reside on the deepest floors of the dungeon, and whether or not it has a creator. It probed the characters' deepest darkest desires, what they had truly wanted, what had kept them going deeper and deeper within the dungeon, and most importantly how they challenged their beliefs and learned how to accept and change them. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
