Delicious in Dungeon Creator Addresses Spin-Off, Sequel Rumors

As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that Delicious in Dungeon has been one of those rare, unexpected treasures that managed to captivate me from the very beginning. It’s not often that a series comes along and effortlessly combines elements of fantasy, adventure, humor, and culinary delights, all while maintaining an authentic and endearing narrative.

The “Delicious in Dungeon” series bucked expectations, having been initially released in 2014 by Ryoko Kui before the renewed popularity of Dungeons & Dragons. This fantasy slice-of-life show, filled with various mythical creatures, gradually garnered a following that swelled as more fans became enamored with tabletop RPG (TRPG) stories. Following Trigger’s adaptation of the series into an animated production, speculation about future spin-offs or sequels flourished. However, Ryoko Kui has lately put a halt to such speculations.

The information originates straight from the mind behind “Delicious in Dungeon,” who recently talked with ANN. When inquired about potential future plans for “Delicious in Dungeon,” Kui expressed uncertainty. Currently, the manga is complete, and Kui is content to let her characters dwell within the imaginations of fans.

Kui expressed that at the moment, there are no plans for a spin-off. However, Izutsumi may still have the desire to track down the Black Magician and defeat him. Alternatively, she could simply continue living her life as she pleases, given her independent nature.

Indeed, the “Delicious in Dungeon” manga has taken a hiatus for some time now, wrapping up its run back in September 2023 after nine years. However, the story continues to thrive through Trigger’s anime adaptation. This series gained immense popularity on Netflix with season one and is already preparing for a second installment. Even without Kui returning to the series, there are still many more adventures ahead thanks to its anime version.

To watch the anime series “Delicious in Dungeon”, it’s currently available on Netflix. In the USA, the manga is being published by Yen Press. For a better understanding of the series, you can find its official summary provided below:

In a deep, perilous dungeon, young explorer Laios and his team encounter a terrifying dragon that leaves them penniless, foodless, and one member short. Despite their eagerness to rescue their fallen comrade, the group faces an obstacle: they have no supplies for the journey ahead, which could lead to starvation. However, Laios proposes an unconventional solution: “Why don’t we make our meals out of the monsters we encounter?” This bold idea means that slimes, basilisks, and even dragons might become their next meal in this treacherous journey through the depths of the dungeon!
