The anime adaptation, limited exclusively to Netflix, has been acclaimed both for its fidelity to the source material and for the quality of the animation. TRIGGER studios, known for their work on series such as "Kill la Kill" and "Little Witch Academia", have been able to capture the essence of "Dungeon Meshi", providing a visual and narrative experience that has left fans wanting more.
