amidst the flood of excited screaming over the sudden tonal shift in episode 11 of Dungeon Meshi, I have seen a few anime-only viewers who are a bit... put off by it?? some feeling that they were lied to, or accusing the story of abandoning its premise and feel-good vibes.

all I can say to those people without spoiling things is this: TRUST THE PROCESS. this tonal shift didn't come out of nowhere, and it wasn't put in merely for shock value. Dungeon Meshi is a carefully crafted work with themes that carry from its opening moments all the way through to its conclusion. as the story unfolds, those themes are expanded upon and explored in truly remarkable and unexpected ways. it is, when viewed in its entirety, one of the most cohesive and beautifully told narratives in the anime/manga space.

as for those feel-good vibes?? they never truly leave, in fact imho they only grow stronger as the story progresses in spite of its increasingly dark moments. and there WILL be dark moments. man oh man, y'all have seen NOTHING yet. but again: TRUST THE PROCESS. believe in these characters, in their tenacity, in their love for each other. no matter how dire things get, believe that there will always be a warm campfire and a delicious meal waiting for them at the end.

May, according to F1 insider U2 is about to release a diss track about Christian Horner because his victim is the sister of the guitarist's son-in-law

I did not have "U2 releasing a diss track about Christian Horner" on my 2024 bingo card, and yet here we are.

what do we do if steve dies

i'm putting my hands on your shoulders, i am giving you the biggest pep talk as i say this: we shall rejoice!! with much woe and joy, as Steve will finally be freed from the narrative, just a joe keery will finally be freed from his netflix chains!!

Steve can happily join Eddie in fanfic afterlife, where he can never be tied down by an unsatisfying story conclusion!!!

Seriously though, I'LL PROBABLY CRY regardless of my feelings

but in reality, i'd be more upset if he's forced into a weird little 'happy ending' with a like "ten years later and he married to this character we've never met/Nancy" or my BIGGEST FEAR that they retcon robin to bisexual and actually she and steve are end game (this is a real fear, i lie awake a night terrified of it)

Genuinely, I am already aware that I'll not be happy with whatever "happy ending" Duffers/Netflix has planned, as they've long lost my trust over the seasons. The show is very fun and I have and will enjoy watching it, but I'm move invested in how I and other fan writers may rip it a part and make something BETTER. I've long taken canon out back and put it down quietly.
