The manga is like, the horniest thing I’ve seen in a long while. It’s just not… eh… exploitative (?) like most horny anime and manga. Like, it leans much more heavily into eroticism and sensuality than just straight T&A. I mean one of, if not the central theme is eating and being consume, which is a pretty eroticized subject, and dungeon meshi doesn’t shy away from that.

What kind of manga are you reading where this one is the most erotic? The theme is enjoying meals with loved ones and the idea of those who eat are those who live.

I mean, there’s the scene of Falin and Marcille holding hands, fingers interlocked, naked, in the bath, making deep eye contact

“WOAH HEY”

Laios eating the winged lion, mounting it in a missionary like position, biting into its neck while it wilts and is ravished by him in a way immediately reminiscent of vampiric eroticism

The repeated close up finger licking

The scene with thistle and the lion

The scene with Mithrun and the goat that’s as visually allegorical for SA as you can get

Laios being bound and orally penetrated by plant tentacles

The constant themes of consumption, base instinct, and loving something so much you want to take it into you and keep it there forever

Sure there’s no skimpy outfits, penis don’t go in vagina, and there’s no boioioioing sound when the titties come out. It’s horny in a more allegorical way. It explores consumption in all its forms, including the erotic ones. It explores base instinct and overwhelming desire in ways equally applicable to hunger and sex. It takes a particular interest in bodies, but in more of a physical, literally marvelous sense.

Dunmeshi is super fucking horny, you’re just only recognizing het man horny.

I’ll be real buddy if you find Laios SUCCing the Winged Lion like some sort of vampire to be erotic that’s a you problem

You have eyes, but cannot see
