Dungeon Meshi is an anime and manga based on tropes from Western tabletop and videogame RPGs. By the manga's end, it was popular in Japan and gaining traction in the West. The anime, with its simulcast on Netflix, skyrocketed the series to popularity in Western anime fandom, particularly on Tumblr.[1]

Canon

Going through the dungeon to rescue their party member Falin who got eaten by a dragon, the group must eat and cook monster's they find in the dungeon to survive. But its more than mere survival—the group turns dungeon cooking into an art.

Name

Many fans are unhappy with the official English name "Delicious in Dungeon", and prefer the romanization of the Japanese title. Some English language fans even prefer or use localization names from Spanish "Tragones y mazmorras" or French "Gloutons et Dragons", both of which translate to "Dungeons and Gluttons". Many of the translated names are plays on Dungeons and Dragons, which the setting of the show is heavily based on.
