Another read that I can’t decide if it’s a 4 or 5 star for me!! I think my ratings are skewed bc if I finish something, I probably really liked it.
This might be my first manga ever? I love the anime and the concept of this series as a whole. I’ve always thought eating monsters (like pokemon for the internet meme) was a funny idea and then this series takes it further with environmental world building logic. This series take on monsters (and how to eat them) is clever and obviously based in a love for the natural world that is so charming.
Also, I’ve always bounced off of what I’ve seen of dnd and dungeon-like fantasy (with Zelda being the main exception) bc it seemed to have a lack of deeper lore/in-story explanation for the dungeon exploring loop. This series not only has lore but hints of an even more deeper backstory to come. The comedy and art puts all this into an appealing package. I will definitely keep reading the series between other books.
Tl;dr: the manga is worth the read for fans of the anime even though the anime is faithful/repeats the story. There are funny moments and lovely illustrations that you don’t get in the anime. I loved the little extras about the monsters!
