Dungeon Meshi Episode 17 Discussion

The subs we want start with "Really, though.". "Wow, how shameful" are dub subs.

"It's so cool!" Never change Laios.
Amazing fight. Fun how with resurrection magic existing, you can kill characters left and right like that. Also Falin was hot when she descended at 6:51
20:37 What Laios said here: "Since slitting her throat didn't interfere with her ability to breathe, she may even have another air intake. She didn't even flinch when her throat was slit. It wasn't leathal, but it made her lose control of her body and..."

One of the best episodes so far, loved it. I hope we see Shuro again at the very end and he properly confesses to Falin.

Don't tell me asebi is actually izutsumi.....

This was probably the most tense episode to date...and with the most (temporary) death scenes at one time between two parties at 7 dead. Senshi not only survived, but didn't even drop the tray of food in the battle which had a bowl of soup--sasuga Senshi.

I'm surprised they kept the nipples in for the harpies. It's a very important detail faithful to the source material.

I'm glad Laios and Shuro got into a fistfight, although it started getting a little dirty with the hair-pulling...sometimes boys just need to get it out of their system to become bros again, as guys usually aren't the best at communicating with words.

Shuro saying he'll never step foot on the island again after returning to his homeland is a little depressing. I hope plans change with him and his party making more future appearances. Maybe one-half of the twin bell that Shuro gave Laios will play a big part in that.

Kabru getting flashbacks of 'nam from the thought of eating monsters, lol. He still annoys me with how he tries to for lack of a better term, manipulate people, where he pretends to be interested in monster food after being offered it, even considering briefly murdering Laios for a second.

Speaking of which, Kabru is the 2nd person (or 3rd if we count Shuro as well) to mull over the idea of what would happen after the possibility of Laios defeating the mad sorcerer, the first being the Orc chief. If anyone deserves to become King of the kingdom/Dungeon Lord, it's Laios...especially now that his party committed the taboo of black magic, he'll need some way to get around that together with Marcille who actually casted the black magic spell.

"Asebi" is still missing. I hope she comes back soon.

After listening to the 2nd cour ED, it's been really growing on me. I now think it suits the series more than the 1st one, as the smooth transition fits regardless of whether or not an episode ends on a somber note, or a happy one. Next week...no preview yet.

I'm surprised how easily those two parties just left the dungeon. Shuro's goal was to find Falin. He didn't sleep, didn't eat, and right after he finally found her, he just leaves the dungeon, despite Marcille mentioning there's a chance to rescue her. Instead, he decides to report Laios's party for using black magic, thereby dooming Falin to death even if she gets out of the dungeon.
On the other hand, we have Kabru, who intended (at least from my understanding after listening to his inner thoughts) to prevent them from killing the magician first, or even kill them. He looked pretty serious thinking about that. And after finally catching up with Laios's party, he also decides to leave the dungeon. Well, that reasoning is quite something, I must say.
