The light novel has a cumulative 4.5 million copies of its volumes in print.

Akagishi K (Sabikui Bisco) began drawing a manga adaptation on the Comic Gardo website in March 2017. The sixth volume went on sale last November.

Synopsis
Along with three other heroes, 27-year-old Mukouda Tsuyoshi is transported into a fantasy world to rescue a kingdom from a mysterious threat. However, it soon becomes clear that Tsuyoshi has been dragged into the summoning ritual by accident. His only skill turns out to be "Food Menu," which allows him to open an interface where he can purchase and obtain food-related supermarket items from modern Japan.

Unceremoniously booted out of the palace, Tsuyoshi sets out on his own into his new world. However, his ability to create delicious dishes unknown to this world soon pays dividends, even attracting the legendary wolf Fenrir. Fenrir is so taken in by the food that the creature immediately forms a contract with Tsuyoshi, becoming his familiar. Followed by this whimsical mythical being, Tsuyoshi takes up a job as a merchant and adventurer, traveling and cooking up mouth-watering meals that never fail to amaze the inhabitants of this world.

As someone who read the 11 volume of TonSuki, it's a breath of fresh air from those isekai LNs. It does get boring *Spoiler* when they travel to two monster territories before going to the next town *spoiler* but the world building is great.

Happy that the time Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi is now having an anime adaptation!

Kinda want to watch it because it would be the first isekai by MAPPA.

I read the manga for this a while back and was really bored of it pretty quickly, so not too interested for this anime adaptation. Interesting seeing MAPPA take on this project though, and have that release a couple months after being announced. They already have their plate full with tons of other big shows/sequels so it's definitely a different choice to say the least.

I NEED MORE GOURMET STUFF LIKE THIS, dont give a shit about the isekai whole trend but at least it'll deliver some delicious food.

More! We need more isekai! May the cries and moans of the heathens be nourishment to the isekai god and elate the souls of its followers!

oh shit here we go again

Oct 29, 2022 7:13 AM by Disapeared_Ghost

Mappa doing isekai... Oh shit

Oct 29, 2022 7:00 AM by RedChrome

Isekai food porn from MAPPA? What for? If there's no dark fantasy or fujo baiting, I just don't see the point of this show for them.

Oct 29, 2022 6:17 AM by RobertBobert

From the director of Kakegurui xx. Hmmmm

Well at least its not "killing the demon lord then getting bored" type of isekai.

Unless the endgame is him having a cooking contest with the demon lord's chef.

MAPPA doing an isekai LN adaptation? Wow.

Oct 29, 2022 3:31 AM by MegamiRem

YES! One of my fav fantasy slice of life’s getting an anime!

Oct 29, 2022 2:33 AM by MythicLily64

The premise seems normal. Also, cooking shows are great. So... I'm not complaining.

Oct 29, 2022 1:39 AM by Pre_Yum

With both this and Vinland, also having Csm right now, i wonder if well end up getting SnK for summer 2023 or autum.

Mappa doing a generic isekai adaptation? Didn't expect that from them. But they do make garbage series from time to time so I am not that surprised. I would have preferred if they adapted something better though.
