Randomly thinkin about Chilchuck today, and how he tries sooooo hard to self sabotage
like for example, other half foots on the island think that he's a greedy asshole who only cares about money, and he does nothing to try to disprove that
but then there's this omake at the end of book 9 that shows that people treat half foots fucking TERRIBLY and chilchuck started a union to protect them
and then in the bicorn chapter, he doesn't want Marcille to keep digging into his personal business so he tells her he CHEATED ON HIS WIFE
but he just COMPLETELY fuckin lied about that and made himself sound so much worse than he is bc he's afraid of being vulnerable with people and would rather everyone believes he's a shitty person so he can keep them at a distance
and the thing that's memed so often is that he refuses to help with fighting most of the time because it's not part of his contract
but if you take this lore into account (not gonna add those particular images to this post simply bc I've used them in so many posts already LMAO) along with this tidbit from the world guide:
then it's like. yeah he has to keep his weight low so if he gets killed or severely injured and has to be healed, that could be really dangerous for him. and even if he was healed at that point he'd end up being a burden to the party after that point, he would be too dangerously thin/sickly to be able to help.
Like, Chilchuck has so many things about him that APPEAR to be character flaws, but every single one of them has a very reasonable explanation. He just leans into the mischaracterization bc he's emotionally withholding and can handle people thinking he's an asshole more than he can handle opening up to anyone. he's such a well thought out and interesting character
All he had to say was eek🥲
This is always the funniest thing to me remembering that this is literally Chilchuck’s POV of the Marcille-Thistle fight. Like no wonder he thought she was batshit after that
"Eek!" is an understatement sir
I really like the story of Jesus
Was Falin always such a messy eater?
thought about this after drawing my Falin weight journey notes and it made me emo so I had to draw it :')
(also related to my post about Laios' relationship with food lol)
Not to be a lesbian but if you got swallowed by a dragon and died I would cut that dragon open and pull out your bones and painstakingly put your bones back together, so I can bring you back to life using ancient magic but in doing so I inadvertently tied you to the dragon that ate you and you’ll never be the same but neither will I knowing what I did to you.
Walks in, people are really doing the “my white man has done nothing wrong in the narrative ever because he is autistic and autistic people can do nothing wrong actually” with Dungeon meshi
Read down below for my thoughts on people pulling this shit
Before I start, maybe pick up a book from school and practice how to read a narrative and learn content analysis,
it’ll really help because I don’t know what the hell else to say to people who are bad at reading subtext and putting context into practice at this point
I see the sentiment of “Kabru is actually evil because he actively murders people-“ as if the story isn’t actually like super nuanced and complex in its’ dynamics between races
and y’all can only really see a man that has personally gone through nothing but tragedy have a proper reaction to not having that tragedy handled properly and go “because he is a brown man he is inherently violent and therefore bad for my white man because of these story beats” with the type of stupid white person reaction.
The subtext went out the window huh, he gave the viewer ample context and reason as to why it happened he was going to kill the body retriever group, WHO WAS TRYING TO SAY TO HIM THAT THEY WERE GOING TO MUG HIM. AND KILL HIM AND SPLIT THE MONEY THEY MADE FROM GAMING A SYSTEM THEYVE BEEN EXPLOITING, WHICH HE DIDN’T DO.
Dying to monsters is one thing but someone like a retriever artificially upping the amount of people who die in a dungeon while also actively disrespecting the rules that the dungeon has by doing that fits perfectly into Kabru’s moral compass and motivation. Do you think that wouldn’t bother him? Sure, he has learning to do himself in regards to monsters and all, but do people really think he’s a monster actively incapable of change, when he’s stated in text that he believes himself to be a monster due to the things that have happened to him? Do you think he doesn’t blame himself and have survivors guilt from what he went through? Or do we think because Kabru lies and he warps and he cheats only to start realizing that the Kabru we’re shown doesn’t even know where he himself starts or ends. This is not trying to justify his actions. I am explaining his thinking. Of course He’d kill the retrievers.
And I think he would kill the Canaries if he had the chance to. I think the Retrievers were an active stand in for his feelings towards the Canaries.
When you build a life speaking lies after your previous status quo crumbles, how the fuck are you supposed to differentiate your own behaviors from the lies you grow into saying to make sure you don’t get close enough to people to be hurt as badly as he was as a kid. He is a sole survivor of a tragedy, and he reacts accordingly, and you all just want to antagonize him.
Did we forget who we’re talking about in comparison here, or are you guys that focused on justifying a man who clearly was used, exploited, and literally lost his mother because some group who thought themselves to be higher than due to their longer life cycles decided to destroy his whole life because it created a slight inconvenience
god you lot are truly fucking insufferable and can’t let characters be complex without woobifying or flanderizing them to be more digestible.
Let characters be complex.
You don’t have to like them all the time, You don’t have to agree with their actions.
You don’t have to agree with a character all the time for you to like a character’s writing.
Anyway last thing about Kabru I’m taking him away from you fuckers in the communal toy box since you freaks don’t know how to read his character
FARCILLE FANS HOW WE FEELING AFTER THE LATEST EP
HALLOWEEN WIP FOR CONTEST >0<
Dont know what costumes to give izutsumi and marcille ;-;
im fucking losing it
Finally got around to doing the triforce labrumisu art!
Very much a Wip right now.
The first two are some of Mithruns outfits but I’m debating if the second one should be kabrus.
More info about the au under.
Part of the au is that the part of the triforce each one is would be better suited for the others. Kabru as wisdom marches with his blue eyes and adviser status. Laios is better suited as courage going on an adventure around the world. Mithrun is canonically a very powerful magic user and fighter, hes also the canaries captain.
I wanted them to have roles that don’t fully suit them because it would be interesting to see how they work with and against their part. Also because the theme of this reincarnation of them is stronger together than as enemies.
Mithrun at first is wary of Laios and is fully ready to throw hands. His last Ganon was cruel and the reason he ended up injured and locked away. However after meeting Laios outside of him being power and the king he starts to empathize with him.
Poor Kabru has been hit by the Botw/Totk cooking curse. He is not having fun in that regard.
More things from my Labrumisu Triforce au.
It’s called the triforce trio au for the time being.
Fun facts under read more
Mithrun has desires but they are very muted due to him being in isolation for so long. He just doesn’t care about watching his words anymore.
Laios can turn into his chimera form but that caused problems for him in the village he grew up in.
His party members are his council!
Monsters tend to avoid him in a, we will spread across the world under his will sort of way, Laios who just wants to study (and eat) them is very disappointed by this.
Laios is very polite to Mithrun. He knows it wasn’t him but the triforce of power still disrupts Mithrun sometimes.
He thinks Kabru enjoys killing and eating the monsters he sends so he sends more. Kabru…Does not.
Kabru is very quick to jump into action due to his courage, he also overthinks so the entire time he’s fighting he’s freaking out in ten different ways. He will do it again, every time.
Kabrus village was attacked by monsters that where under the winged lion/goats control when he was power due to plot things.
Mithruns past self cared about the hero in a very, I am the prince/triforce of wisdom, obviously the hero will come for me way. Current Mithrun admires Kabrus tenacity.
The conflict in the background is how the trio are trying to deal with leftovers from the winged lions reign.
So these are body pillows at the Halloween market and the artist is @dianeramic or:

I am in need of a place to read the delicious in dungeon manga and i got no clue, HELP
Okay so, something I don’t see people talking about at all is how the Falin/Dragon chimera moves. How Falin’s muscle memory is overriding the dragon’s. She needs to hit something? Well then she’s going to reel back her arm of course, even if it isn’t the thing making contact. There’s something so wrong yet so right about it, a subtle thing that shows off the awkwardness of her new form that displays the body horror front and center. Something that when you stop to think about it, makes her less efficient, because if she was perfect, she would move separately, casting with her arms while fighting with her wings and tail. But she isn’t perfect, she’s a beautiful abomination.
