Senshi Of Izganda - Tumblr Posts
one thing i quite like about senshi is that despite having 10 years of cooking experience, he doesn't think of himself as the best chef ever or anything. there's moments where he's eating the food he made and he's like "hmmm this could've been better. maybe i'll try again next time." and he doesn't take it personally when people say they don't like his food. when izutsumi says she doesn't want to eat dumplings anymore, senshi's not mad, instead he tries cooking something different so that izutsumi gets the nutrition she needs. he doesn't cook to show off, he does it because he cares about other people's health and is passionate about what he does.
WHY is everyone hungry in dungeons.
If baby Senshi is Steven, then if he had died with the rest of his crew back then, would that make him... Senshi After Not Surviving (SANS)?
I literally don't know what possessed me to make an 11 page comic over these sad old men! bon appetit <3

Here are my Dungeon meshi stickers! I basically thought "hey. lots of people will have cute food themed stickers. And that good and well, but I want that serious stuff too!" So I decided to make a series for the main gang based on sense of self instead!
you cant be saying that White Baby.
i saw this tweet and drew this immediately as fast as I could
🍴🔪3 episodes in and i already love this show!🔪🍴
dungeon meshi! just a few hours away! can you believe it? wow!
Hell yeah
I saw you were taking dunmeshi requests.
If you kindly would, I would enjoy to see Senshi chilling outside in the winter. Maybe in a cute scarf or something. I love snow, thank you for your consideration.
chilling? he would be cooking Chicharron with guacamole in an ICE STORM
One of the things I really appreciate about Dungeon Meshi is how the text is so clearly full of love for animals. Like the true kind of love Laios feels for the monster where he wants to know everything about them, but most of all he respects them and loves them as animals.
One of the chapters I can't stop thinking about is the one about Anne the Kelpie. It's kind of impressive how well it illustrates the different kind of love people have for animals. And how someone that loves an animal isn't necessarily an animal lover. If that makes sense.
When Senshi calls out Anne what he says is "Don't worry Anne's Harmless" but she isn't, she's a wild animal.
Marcille immediately reacts positively about it thinking it's cute she accepts the treat Senshi has for her. And hers and Chilchuck's reaction to Senshi wanting to cross the river on her back is more surprise while Laios immediately realizes how bad of an idea it is.
But Laios is the animal monster lover so how come when he finally is faced with a "docile" monster he doesn't react positively like the others? Marcille even calls him a monster. That's because Laios loves monsters, and Senshi loves Anne.
I've seen this attitude around me several times, where people love a specific animal but what they love is their idea of that animal, they don't really know them because they don't love the animal part of them.
It becomes a "this one is special because I love them" that can quickly become an issue for the animal as much as it is for the person. It's something unfortunate I see time and time again irl.
Anne wasn't wicked, Anne wasn't mean, Anne didn't trick him. Anne was a wild animal and Senshi loved her as Anne but not as a kelpie.
She acted on instinct, maybe she did love Senshi in the way kelpies can love, but animals are still animals and must be respected and treated as such. Climbing on top of Anne's back was the equivalent of putting your arm inside a alligator's mouth, the mouth is gonna close because that's what they're designed to do.
The real life equivalent I see the most of "I love this animal but I don't love the animal part of them" is with dogs. If you insist on loving an animal without acknowledging they ARE an animal they might hurt you, you might hurt them, it will only end in grief.
The best way you can love an animal is by understanding they're an animal.
That is all to say I don't mean that the love Senshi felt for Anne wasn't real or that it's all his fault. He couldn't have known with the information he had and unfortunately it came down to the worst outcome.
I just love dungeon meshi dearly.
Okay so hear me out...
Both the Touden siblings are autistic. That's not too controversial a take. Senshi is also autistic, also not too hot a take. Kabru is autistic and very good at masking in social situations, and Izutsumi may have mild BPD (difficulties with interpersonal relationships, distorted sence of self, intense emotional responses, eating disorders, risky behaviours) or she could just be a cat and a teenager. My interest here is Marcille... I think Marcille might have ADHD, and it's not just her fussy eating and persistent absent mindedness, it's that combined with her balance.
Tests on wii balance boards, of all things, showed that people with ADHD have consistently worse balance than a control group, and that children with ADHD have significantly more mild accidents due to poor coordination. You even see this in some adults with the "ADHD walk" where they instinctively sway or lean around objects in an exaggerated way as they have internalised a fear of hitting them as they walk... and tallman Chilchuck complains during the Changling arch that Marcille is still clumsy as a half-foot, to a degree that suprises Chilchuck. Add that to some difficulty making decisions despite being very academicly gifted and her occasional executive function failures, and I think ADHD isn't an unreasonable leap.
Interestingly Chilchuck's anxiety was cured when he became a tall man, suggesting that this is an inherent trait of half-foots and not a condition unique to him, so he might be neurotypical for a half-foot, and half foots might just be naturally more risk adverce and neurotic than the other races. He's litteraly the token neurotypical friend in the group, which might explain his long-suffering attitude towards the others.
Or I'm so desperate for good ADHD representation that I'm projecting.
Senshi (King of Micro-aggression)
The perfect character flaw for a character that basically has no interaction outside of dwarfs and orcs. It also reveal the inherent bigotry in dwarfish communities (then again, all races hate elves)
Dungeons, Drive-Ins, and Dives (or: Flavortown in Dungeon)
It's messy but I couldn't rest until I drew this cursed idea
it’s like the one human in a cast of muppets dynamic
