Why does this series recieve so much praise on Zig Forums? Now don't get me wrong, I don't find it egregiously bad. However, having read all the chapters, it just seems like a slightly better version of One Piece.
It has the same adventure focus, strong worldbuilding, slowly expanding core cast who each has a different reason for reaching the endgoal, and mystery elements.
However, it also has many of the same pitfalls, such as relying on asspulls to solve most scenarios, babying the audience by constantly telling the core themes despite showing it well enough, having inconsistent pacing (which is far less excusable in a non-weekly series), and crutching on flashbacks as the only way to expound on and develop characters.

You might want to exclude certain retarded statements from your OP if you want any real discussion.

When I write something like this people usually tell me "what did you expect from a cooking comedy". I've been expecting at least more drama from this manga, because I sense it has some potential.
It's still a good reading, thanks to the art and humor. Still, I like Kuutei Dragons better.
Robert Hernandez
I wish I could compare it to something better than lowbro shonenshit, but I can't. One piece and golden kamuy are legitimately probably the closest somewhat popular series out there to this, and they are both shonenshit.

>it just seems like a slightly better version of One Piece.
Holy fuck what a bait.
Carson Green
How is the pacing bad? It's a cooking manga first and foremost, and most chapters, and every single encounter, ends with food being cooked.

Ok tastelet-kun, we'll read your isekai #987 Frieren manga. You can stop now.

Its "seinen" but its basically just shonen with blood.
Isaac Clark
Setting the bait aside, if there is something that I would compare Dungeon Meshi to is Full Metal Alchemist. Farlyn's misadventures remind me of Alphonse and accidentally both are written by women.
Michael Gomez
No. Shounen isn't a genre.
Parker Myers
>but its basically just shonen with blood.
Except shounens usually feature blood, including OP. Why are you trying to correct a retarded statement with something even dumber.

it's so fucking good, it's baffling that you can't see it

I was expecting the day some contrarian would start to hate on DM. I didn't expect him to come with such a poor argument. I'm honestly disappointed.

it doesnt even sell a fraction as good as one piece and sales = quality
Anthony James
It's good.

It's a legitimately good book with great characters, funny and dramatic parts. Best thing is unlike most Jfantasy right now Dungeon Meshi while obviously based in part on /tg/ and video games doesn't just port mechanics over literally but instead reinterprets game mechanics as actual conditions. For example instead of people having a quantifiable numerical mana limit it's treated as one would their own physical stamina, a nebulous feeling the character has not actual numbers
Jack Butler
It’s consistently good and quality in both story, characters, and art.
Hudson Rodriguez
You compare it to it's fantasy contemporaries 2hic are mostly shitty isekis and/or video game based where they put shit like stat screens and make character classes an actual thing. The only other fantasy I can think of as good as Dungeon Meshi is Bard Lowen which is criminally underrated here because tasteless faggots consume nothing but videogame iseki number 647204
Oliver Hernandez
Because it doesn't have an anime so hardly anybody talks about it except when there is a new chapter. It's just a meme manga for reaction pics.
Zachary Watson
WHERE’S THE NEW CHAPTER KUI-CHAN
WHERE IS IT?
Is this a break month? It feels like every other month is a break month.
