What if the switch in the bridge was successful?
i think the main reason people dislike kabru is that they’re approaching dungeon meshi from the typical shounen protag framework where the main character is the moral authority and anyone who questions them MUST be a villain, but dungeon meshi is excellent at showcasing laios’ deep flaws and how he works to overcome them. from an outside perspective (kabru’s perspective) laios is dubious in morality and kabru says as much when he explains how laios is the only person he can’t seem to read. kabru doesn’t doubt laios because he’s plotting anything, he doubts laios because laios is a strange and offputting person who stumbles into a position of immense power and titular plot momentum, all of which kabru realizes well before anyone else, and which kabru also handles extremely apprehensively and delicately Because he doesn’t want to misjudge a strange but innocent man. basically if you dislike kabru you aren’t reading dungeon meshi right
I love themmm ( pt. 1 | pt. 2)
My missing school for good and evil hours mostly consist of just being so angry at how bad the whole tcy series is, and that the live action adaptation wouldve been revolutionary if its a series, not a movie
And the occasional thinking about agatha, you know, the usual
more magisterium characters! My fave is master milagros, cuz shes funny and apparently shes filipino, i love her sm

Kinda late participation post but huzzah
1. Fave lines:
"I think you deserve an ice-cream sundae — the biggest one we can get — on the way home. Your favorite kind, with butterscotch, peanut butter, and Gummi Bears. Okay?”
- i forgot that call is a kid with weird and crazy af preferences cuz wdym ice cream with gummi bears? That's so 💀💀💀 He does deserve it tho, kinda sad this wasnt mentioned again,, makes call rlly silly
If you could fly, whispered a small, treacherous part of his brain, it wouldn’t matter so much that you can’t run.
- this broke my heart,,
- when i first read this, i got so excited cuz i thought call would be able to fly at some point in the books. That it'll be his main thing, his specialized powers or smth. Imagine my disappointment when he only gets to fly during lessons, and nothing beyond that.
2. Best character aside from the main trio:
Master Milagros. They really captured the essence of a newly graduated, new hire teacher. The awkward introduction, the confidence in their work, and vibe, everything is so cool with her. And probably the nicest and sane and actually-cares-about-students out of all the masters in magisterium so,,,
3. Id rate it a 4.5/10
The prologue and chapter 1 really did a great job on setting the themes of "magic is scary" vibes. The tension built up for the entrance exam was well done.
But what comes after that is a shit show. The entrance exam ended up feeling like a human trafficking scheme. The exams itself feels rigged. The masters, the adults who are responsible for these children, feels like they don't care about them at all. These masters should NOT be teachers omfg (yes. Even Rufus.)
And not even the introduction to the school itself made things better.
So,, yeah,, its hhhhhhhh fun? happy tentitversary

<------ if you're confused about this post, i suggest to check this one out)
Ok I’ve decided I’ll stop screaming in my posts.
I trust everyone has done the reading 👀👀👀
Anyway! To spark the discussion, here’s three questions to start with! reblog or reply with the answer
What is the most iconic line in the first five chapters of TIT?
The best character in the first five chapters beside the trio (the one you find the funniest, the most intriguing one)
Rate the first five chapters on a scale from 1-10, either based on how the rest of the book compares or simply in general
Also, apologies, but I will be tagging everyone who interacted with the og post, if you don't wanna participate, just ignore this!
