Is it Wrong to Have a Title for a Light Novel that is Not Two Lines Long and Describes the Premise of the Show with as Many Words as Possible?
Danmachi says no. It also has no problem being a shameless representation of what light novels are all about; not limited to the ridiculously long titles other books would use as the synopsis in the back cover. So yeah, what do otakus want today? Videogames? Ok. Lolis and tits? Fine. Some generic fantasy land with a generic main character, who is otherwise special? Sure. Just take a big marker and draw a fat vertical line in the checklist of clichés without bothering to verify anything, for Danmachi doesn’t try to exclude anything, or include anything more.
So why the hell am I even reviewing this thing if it’s so bland and mediocre? If it’s the w…

Finally in the fantasy world the main character isn`t finished moron.
Finally he isn`t perverted, he isn`t teleported from parallel world.
Finally the story isn`t borning.
Finally something good.
The whole is set in a fantasy world with elves, Greek gods who have descended on themselves to surrender the divine powers, cute girls and monsters.
I hate to rave about shallowness of main. Bell Cranel is opposite of almost everyone mains in this type of anime and I love it. He is charming, handsome young man or boy, who cares? He looks childishly and often behaves like that.He wants to be a hero - childishly but nobly and cute.
Ironically our hero is save to her by Ais Wallenstein in which he falls in love. He wants to catch up with her to can using to be close with her. She is so cuuuute,bl…

Honest and short review from me so I believe that I am the only one who evaluates this anime..... let start with my love of all shows which are connected with magic/medieval (or MMORPG variant) and this show was similar to Sao what for me means cool!
Story 5/10 nothing special same something like sao
Sound 8/10 I like when sound is matched and remains atmospheric
Character 8/10 main hero is like a Kirito from sao but more trolling than seriousness and Hestia is very pretty, seeing their she hypnotize me, and last character who I liked too is Wallenstein, Ais she reminds me somehow Asuna from sao but she is more like Kirito by character.
Enjoyment 9/10 I watch the whole season in two days= I LOVE IT
Overall 8/10 this show for me is very good but not great or masterpiece becouse story i…

Also known as DanMachi, Dungeon is an anime about .. girls.
Yes because when I finished this anime I realized how many of the characters were girls .. and how many fell in love for him.
AND I MEAN IT . I think Kirito was just overcome by Bell. I can say for sure that any girl in a 1 KM radius would fall in love for Kirito. But Bell just goes beyond that with his 100 KM radius.
He gets everything that he wants. A loli, a hot chick, a hot elf and even a fucking god with nice tits. Jeez man this guy is awesome !
Now seriously .. this anime gets stupid because of this. He does nothing whatsoever but still every girl in the town falls in love for him because .. reasons.
At a first glance, this anime looked a lot like SAO. The worlds are similiar, the characters are similiar .. but lat…

is the latest anime to follow the video game trend that's become increasingly popular within the anime medium. These video game type series, usually MMORPG based, have gotten so commonplace in the last handful of years that they're starting to form their own sub-genre altogether, in a similar fashion to the "moe/cute girls doing cute things" craze in the mid-2000s. With an easy premise to understand, little to nothing to comprehend story-wise, and a "turn your brain off" level of entertainment value, DanMachi was tailor-made for mainstream success. But whatever integrity it may have had w…

Alright so now that the old post had been removed, I feel that it's my fault and i should've updated this anime review but this time I will be so critic.
*Spoiler-free* (Includes general overview of the story)
Story: 8
Why 8 ? That would be because of the expandable content of the story and I really love how the anime is adapted to a video game enviroment where gamers will remember how amazing it was to play and farm for hours in dungeons and meeting new people, then I realize that most of us quit after being hacked/scammed. Now furthermore, I realized this story isn't very stable when it comes to how it moves on and progresses. Like it starts off with a blow then it settles for a while then it skyrockets then lands smoothly. The ending impressed me cause it had hints for a second season…

Danmachi is an anime made to be simple. First of all, you won't see anything complex here. I see it as one of the budget anime, where there's nothing special about it, but it sells. It feels like sao season 3, just with more fan service. The purpose that I've found of Danmachi, is to serve as a passtime, and relaxation after you've exhausted the list of must watch anime, or if you want something "casual".
Right at the start, there is a narration, that quickly shows you a bit of how the world works. Later on, in the first episode you will of course find out more. What you will be finding out is, that that world is basically an RPG. It doesn't say anything about this being a game, but it simply works like that. People that aren't gamers probably won't understand most of the stats, leveling…

Is it wrong to pick up girls in a dungeon? Pfft, it's the best way to pick up girls!
More commonly referred to as DanMachi, "Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka?" is a fantasy, action, adventure, romance and, to some extent, comedy anime. The tags aren't inaccurate, as these themes are visible throughout all twelve episodes. After watching each episode weekly as they were released, I've come to that conclusion that DanMachi is deserving of around a 7/10.
Story: 6
DanMachi's main story line is decent. With plot twists every few episodes, it's safe to say that the main story is pretty exciting and definitely drags you into continuing the series. There are some brilliant moments of tension and the story changes its side character focus every so often, which keeps thin…

Danmachi is a textbook example of an anime that is truly a guilty pleasure in its own right. It doesn't have the most impressive writing, there are tons of clichés and fanservice, and the pacing is sometimes questionable but even so it never ever fails to be entertaining, which is something I can't say for most anime.
Danmachi follows a popular trend in recent years of having a setting that takes place entirely within an MMORPG game world. The difference this time however is that... it actually doesn't. Instead, the story takes place in the characters' real world, but their real world functions like a game. Adventurers gain experience points, earn loot, level up, gain skills and magic etcetera, but it all still takes place in their own actual reality. There is a magical dungeon which adve…

All right Lion Tamers. We look at another anime. This time, I found one I actually like.
It's called "Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka", what a mouthful! Translation is 'Dzun-ge would be wrong I'll seek a meeting to sound day', I swear that's the Google Translation.
There is a short name some use "DanMachi", don't ask me I have no idea. Google Translation is 'Dan-Machi'.
A lot of the time; most of us get caught up in the story, or the music, or the dialog, or the artwork, or the characters.
But then there is the forest, hiding in all those trees. And DanMachi is one of these shows, that shows us that sometimes the forest is more important than the trees.

I'll discuss the Anime's specifics in a moment, but I want to have a word about the meanings of things…

With an absurdly long title such as "Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?" your first inclination is to think that the show is trying too hard to pander from just the title alone. With Romance, Fantasy, Action, and Comedy spliced in with an element of Harem, your anticipation going into this will probably sink into apathy. But fret not, my dear friends, this anime, shortly titled DanMachi, actually has much more to offer than your prototypical otaku bait anime. If you think a story is essential in anime, that fits this description.
I mean the classic stereotype of a protagonist relatable to your average Japanese teenager when I say otaku bait: A sexy loli girl with a sexy petite body who sticks with the protagonist and a plot that owes itself to another shonen show's populari…

welcome to my overcritical & super quick review
very light spoilers below
story 4/10 - an 8 year old could write something on the same level but at least it was coherent
characters 4/10 - extremely generic & less depth than the kiddy pool. their backstories and motivations were barely explained and range from "MY FRIENDS WERE ALL KILLED AND I WENT ON A QUEST FOR REVENGE" to "MY DAD DIED AND I WANT TO BE AN ADVENTURER BECAUSE"
sound 6/10 - it was okay, not close to Hiroyuki Sawano level
art 7/10 - i enjoyed the art style even if it was generic, had a nice fantasy and warm feel to it
animation 7.5/10 - surprisingly better than most until they got cheap and starting throwing in CGI midway through
enjoyment 6/10 - i couldnt tell if this show was on full parody mode or if they were really…

Story: 8
A boy who want to become a great hero. The story is about fighting monsters and gaining experiences. A little bit of harem is involved.
Art: 10
I like the creative look of the characters. I do not have much knowledge to judge it so I gave it ten.
Enjoyment: 8
It's fun. That's it. I can't explain much. If you like girls, watch this. If you want to see a boy that gain fast fighting skill and make other people interest in, watch this.
Overall: 8
Yes, a good to watch anime. You will not feel boring I'm sure because the main character has a girl as his goal. He didn't initially has her so you will be excited when he is meeting with her.
Sorry for grammar.

"Is It Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon" is a goddamn abomination. JC Staff capitalizing on the video game anime craze was already a flag, but to go this far... is pathetic. This is every anime you have ever seen. This is everything wrong with anime. This anime is the exact reason why anime is ostracized at face value. This is what anime viewers should be trying to stop.
There is a story. It is hyper-simplistic. So stupid that anyone could understand it. Yet the plot points make little to no sense. The main character Bell Cranel starts his adventures with his well-endowed companion, the goddess Hestia. Why this girl is supposed to be Hestia I have no clue. She does nothing Hestia-esque. Her character design has nothing to do with Hestia. She's blatantly an oversexualized little girl wi…

I'm probably going a little overboard with my scoring but come on its a video game made into a anime. It's like the manifestation of the games I used to play and the only thing that bothers me is there is just one dungeon and respawning... but it makes sense cause its pretty much like most rpgs. The only thing I can say is I'm sick of getting sucked into short lived anime and there god dang for soarr better be MOARRR!!!!!

Overall score: 6.2/10
The world of DanMachi (short name for the Japanese title of this series) is interesting. The system that's used in this world is in accordance to what Family you belong in, as it determines how you're going to go on adventures. If you are in a family with a lot of people, then it's likely that you'll be going in dungeons with multiple other individuals. For the main character, since he is the only member in his Family, the Hestia Family, he goes on adventures alone--and that played a big role in his development throughout the series.
Although DanMachi is enjoyable, and although I was interested in its world (as I am a fan of Greek Mythology), I personally did not get more interested in its story and characters until around half-way through. A big part of it is prob…

Ah, role playing games. The common theatric in a role playing game is you, the player, controlling a little avatar of yourself as you explore the world and level up your skills, making yourself the best adventurer out there. So, to encapsulate that idea, we have Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka, or "Is it wrong to pick up girls in a dungeon?" in the Spring 2015 season to tell us this. Let's start our journey!
Story (7.48/10): Danmachi as the shorthanded way of calling this show is, takes place in a fantasy realm, a world where Gods and Goddesses (of actual mythos names for gods that exist within our world) have come down to earth to be amongst their children, sealing off their divine powers in the process. Here, the people are given blessings by their gods and godd…

There are times you get a reminder that no matter how many swords, boobs and magic you throw at a show it can’t save it from the boring characters among it all. Welcome to the world of Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka, where strong personalities are obviously illegal and main characters are inexplicably attractive to women. A 13-episode fantasy story put to screen by J.C. Staff and based on a light novel, ‘DanMachi’ can at times be an enjoyable experience if you shut your brain off. Action is served up in droves but in an equal share comes a bland cast and a setting that doesn’t exactly shout out originality.
Story
We follow the journey of Bell Cranel. Bell is an ‘adventurer’, one who goes forth to the dungeon to seek fame and glory while putting their life on the…

**SPOILER FREE REVIEW**
The easiest way to sum up Is it Wrong to Pick up Girls in a Dungeon, or Danmachi for short, was eloquently put by Youtuber Demolition-D as “Sword Art Online: Fat-Fucking-Titties edition”. Who am I to argue with such a flawless summation? There is no question about what Danmachi is; it’s an otaku-pandering, self-insertion, video-game-inspired LN adaptation. The real question lies in whether you will love it for what it is, or hate it for what it is. In case you haven’t guessed it by now, I fall into the latter category. This shallow, ridiculous, and remarkably unoriginal work is a good example of everything wrong with anime today.
Synopsis: Bell Cranel is an adventurer; someone who explores dangerous dungeons and fights monsters for a living. He and his “goddess”,…

When you see a title this long and silly, then you may also be asking yourself if you should watch the show. “Is it wrong to try to pick up girls in a dungeon?” That’s the translated title for this series which really sparks a bit of curiosity. Just judging on the surface, you can tell the story has relations to dungeons and girls. What you may not expect would be the presence of goddesses that really spices up the excitement.
For the purpose of this review, the series will be referred by its shortened title “DanMachi”. Adapted from the light novel of the same name, DanMachi is essentially a fantasy adventure show. The setting takes place in a fictional world known as ‘Orario’. While this name isn’t anything special to remember by, its features crafts many possibilities because of the ex…
