NIGHTMARES + IZUTZUMI! | Dungeon Meshi Episode 19 REACTION!

[@AlanaMisako]

LOVEEEE izutsumi!! also the monster concepts in this show are always so cool 🥲

[@Banana_John]

13:35 It's funny but kinda makes sense since she never read the book and doesn't know its content, so she can't open it in her dream. But she believes it can absolutely solve her problem (time monster), even as a blunt weapon lol.

[@miigi-p4939]

I never thought about it like that but whenever i get something in a dream i never had before its either broken or i dont knwo how to use it

[@МихаилЛарионов-я8ъ]

The thing about nightmares being clams originally comes from chinese folklore. Shen is a type of shapeshifting aquatic dragon or a large mollusk which is able to produce mirages. The first character in japanese word for mirage 蜃気楼 actually means shen

[@superkenji]

idk if its related but, that’s why in naruto shippuden when they reanimated the 2nd mizukage if i remember correctly he also summons clams which also uses genjutsu or mirages

[@МихаилЛарионов-я8ъ]

@@superkenji yep, they are written with the same kanji 蜃, though the reading is "ouhamaguri", which is just a type of clam

[@superkenji]

@@МихаилЛарионов-я8ъ currently learning kanji and it is quite difficult,, didn't know that until now. actually a cool piece of information, thanks!

[@soulscyther666]

The japanese are really serious about their wordplays. Like for example, most of the curses/apparition/entity origin in Monogatari have double meanings in their name and appearance.

[@eclips_total2215]

I love how this show drops the hardest moments under peoples noses, that scene with the book is everything to me in writting , the ramifications of ones desires surpass their darkest fears and the book aswering that call and openning his eye to Marcille as if was saying "We see you".

[@yoshidinono8095]

1:07 Marcille acting like my baby kitten when my older cat attacks her.

[@gabriellee6891]

12:10 this is a slight misinterpretation Marcille's mother says that she runs at a different pace than everyone around her. I think most people get that her mother means she'll out live the people she loves but there's a slight nuance that's lost that really only makes sense later in the series. 12:53 This is one part that the anime really takes advantage of the manga. In the manga the portraits are all different but in the anime they got to add in a bunch of new foreshadowing and tidbits about Marcille's character that the manga hadn't plotted out yet. If you look closely you'll be able to see a big detail about Marcille that won't get brought up until next season. 14:38 This is Dustrag! Dustrag is one of Laios and Falin's several dogs that they had in their childhood. 15:37 In side material Ryoko Kui goes over how one researcher recorded the dreams nightmares gave him and how it started out pleasant but it steadily got worse and worse. The conclusion was that it was far easier to come up with awful terrifying scenarios than it was to create pleasant and happy dreams.

[@mitchhamilton64]

dude, dont talk about foreshadowing for events that havent happened yet

[@jemleye]

Izutsumi ain't your basic catgirl, she's a girl cat :D Down to the chaotic bratty attitude

[@HF-mo7fo]

spoiler

[@jemleye]

@@HF-mo7fo How so? Just observation of her behavior and character in this episode

[@XShrike0]

@@HF-mo7fo She described her second curse to be her mixed condition. I don't see what is spoiler about the comment. I don't see how specifying that she acts similar to an actual cat would be spoiler either. It would be like saying Liaos is monster otaku would be a spoiler at episode one.

[@HF-mo7fo]

@@jemleye @XShrike0 So you didn't talk about the content of the World Guide?

[@jemleye]

@@HF-mo7fo Not to my knowledge, no. Not sure what part of the guide you're referring to. Either way, I was just iterating a joke about her characterisation being more that of an actual cat rather than the stereotypical anime cutesy catgirl

[@mitchhamilton64]

i love marcilles expression when shes remembering her dream, she looks so innocent. i know laois is disappointed that he didnt look like a cool wolf but im glad he helped her have a nice dream.

[@rosie6807]

There's actually some pretty interesting foreshadowing regarding Marcille's nightmares, as in episode 2 she has a mini one about her mother. It makes me sad thinking about how she's probably been having a lot during the time they've been traveling considering the little nightmare clams grow in the pillow D:

[@wamaschawama5178]

1:52 I'll always be grateful for these camera angles

[@mysticdigital5936]

Love this show and these reactions are fun. Marcille misses her "bestie" amd we get a lot of insight into her fear and motivations for learning about dungeons. She also just sees Laios like a fluffy dog, they have such sibling energy. And we finally get Izutsumi! Definitely takes some warming up to, but interested to see what you think of her by the end of the season.

[@karottenkopf1520]

Me and thhe five other manga readers screaming from the book looking at Marcille.

[@BelBelle468]

The fact people are spoiling serious plot points and reveals in the comments…ugh I HATE this fanbase.

[@mitchhamilton64]

saaame. even people going "this moment is great foreshadowing for what comes later!" is annoying

[@phanquan9470]

cat distribution system at its finest

[@1984-z8f]

Izutsumi means literaly 9 souls what a cat😅

[@МихаилЛарионов-я8ъ]

@@1984-z8f can I ask what your source is? Because I speak Japanese and I'm pretty sure it doesn't

[@daavocadoguy5733]

[@Rishi-zv4ee]

You should react to Link Click as well pls. It's season 3 is about to release this October. Pls react to it

[@manjiimortal]

Izutsumi is just about the worst combination! A picky teenage eater, and a picky cat eater. There's nothing more terrifying for a cook.

[@brandonarreola7188]

Love the videos!!! But please finish spyxfamily

[@thesmilyguyguy9799]

[@janewow77]

Marcille fears the monster [time] who took those she loved. Her human father, bird...because she loved them but with her long lifespan, it felt like they were gone [died] too soon. She will outlive most people she loves. The fear of losing everyone she loved and dying alone..... 🥲😢

[@XShrike0]

I would edit your post to remove the specifics about her father. We know he has died at this point but, so has Chilchuck's father.

[@BelBelle468]

Man oh man do I despite dunmeshi fans. Gotta love how they are obsessed with spoiling things for people. I’m so glad I read ahead because Dunmeshi fans are easily the WORST fandom ever.

[@aidanbautista]

​@@BelBelle468 None of these things fall under spoiler territory. Maybe Marcille's dad being human, but you can easily infer by noticing some random man hugging Marcille as a kid. Also, I'm not a manga reader, I just really like the anime and rewatched certain scenes if there was too much going on.

[@Alexmagict]

Please put your "myanimelist" profile in your description!!

[@rendezvousonmemorylane]

That would just trigger people if she didn't like something. Unless she didn't give them ratings.

[@Alexmagict]

@@rendezvousonmemorylane so? Who cares? Bruh, move on! It is just her opinion and you and all that people should respect that because this is why you watching her in the first place. Stop being so childish..

[@XShrike0]

@@Alexmagict they aren't saying they would be offended. They are saying other people might be and start drama.

[@Alexmagict]

@XShrike0 I understood this from the beginning, but that's exactly what I was saying, that she shouldn't care about other people's opinions and drama..

[@Alexmagict]

@@Banana_John i can agree with you! 👍🏻🫰🏻

[@billlee3851]

How did you not realize she was a cat girl?? 😭 It kinda dawned on me when the Kobold was growling at her and no one else, that and the hat shape

[@XShrike0]

As I understand it, the hat shape is common in Japanese stage plays. Her whole outfit is that of a stagehand that you are supposed to ignore. It isn't suppose to give of hints of cat ears.
