Dungeon no Naka no Hito • Dungeon People – Episode 12 discussion – FINAL

I Enjoyed this a lot more than i expected. The contrast between art style and The violence was The best. It also had a huge world buidling that i didnt expect

I know this kind of shows hardly gets a S2 but if It happens fir sure i Will be there

There’s something kinda hilarious seeing a big burly Minotaur grazing like a cow. I mean it kinda *is* a cow, but still pretty funny.

I really liked that whole trek through the hunting grounds and exploring what monsters eat. After that crystal business, I think Belle might be the Dungeon Core. Just a wild guess.

This was actually quite fun. Cute, but also brutal at times. I really liked the dynamic between Belle and Clay. The whole dungeon management aspect was interesting too. Out of all the monsters, I think the golems were my favorite. They’re pretty cute! I wonder if we’ll get an s2?

definitely a surprise this season for me

Indeed, historians will say they where ~~coworkers~~ ~~allies~~ ~~roomates~~ friends [](#forbiddenlove)

Besides that, it was nice too see some familiar faces going about their [normal](https://imgur.com/CvDwxCe) day, poor [Binky](https://imgur.com/R1wFAXr) though

With those new revelations about the artificial dungeon core, the mystery around the predecessor is growing, I wonder if there is an connection to Clays adoptive father.

But it was nice to be reminded how hard Belle is working to further and further improve the dungeon

This was quite a nice show, nothing fancy, but still cosy and engaging. Would love to get more of this, but I think the chances for that are slim at best [](#salute)

The hunting grounds look so great! If I were Clay I’d spend all my free time there. I wonder if the artificial sun feels warm like the real one?

And I got a good laugh out of the minotaur just sprawled on the ground munching on some grass. He looked so happy too!

Ah, this was such a nice, comfy little show (with the occasional bout of gruesome violence) about the inner workings of a dungeon. But we still don’t know what became of Clay’s father so even though it probably won’t happen I’d love to see another season!

This was pretty fun despite being a low budget show. I really like the MCs and their adventures together. It had some decent action sequences as well. Just quite charming all around.

An idea that popped up in my head while they were talking about the dungeon core. What if it starts to break at some point in the future and Belle has to figure out how to create a new one? I feel like that would be a pretty good way for her to surpass her predecessor. Clay is always training to get better so it makes sense for her girlfriend, oh, excuse me, boss, to have to improve as well.

One last thing. If you really want more dungeon world building and you’ve already watched Dungeon Meshi, may I recommend reading the Reign of the seven spellblades light novels? The tone is quite different and the dungeon world building thing is more of a side part that pops up sometimes but I think there’s genuinely some pretty interesting stuff in there. Just a thought that popped up in my head while they were in the grass plains.

When Belle mentioned that the monsters were hunting their food inside of the dungeon, I really feared for a bit that they were preying on adventurers to eat.

Since this anime likes to catch me off-guard with sinister undertones, I was positively surprised that the monsters at this nature habitat didn’t proof very different from regular animals in their feeding habits.

Pekkomo, the minotaur, grazing on his belly like a cow was a surprising sight to see nonetheless. Now that he’s taught Clay the wonders of grass, Furin’s attempts at trying to teach her about proper food have been somewhat ruined. (Never change, Clay.)

I really liked Dungeon People! It’s a fun take on the world of dungeon by focusing less on the “crawling” and more on the mechanics of this oddly managed dungeon through the eyes of two cute girls, while not shying away from the occasional violence either.

There’s still many questions to be answered, like the disappearances of both Clay’s father (where did he go?) and Belle’s past (is she even human?), but I found this to be a satisfactory ending in its own right with Belle and Clay having found a dear friend in each other. That’s worth something too!

This show is one of the highlights of the season for me, and it’s in the running for my Dark Horse award. It wasn’t tremendously deep, didn’t have the subtlety of a truly great show, and the animation wasn’t spectacular… but I loved every episode for the charm, characters, and world building. Especially the more “matter of fact” stuff where they just showed mundane routines, because that really appealed to the realist in me. No need to over-complicate things, just apply the KISS principle.

Had a Trysail OP as well. Last one that I added to my playlist was two years ago from Aharen-san, so it was nice to hear another example of their cheerful sound.
