Interesting manga with a shit ending. 6.5/10 (honestly maybe a 6 is already too much, but i enjoyed it besides the final chapter) The story wasn't developed enough, they rushed everything after a certain part (more than it already was lol) and the character.. Well, he was an interesting character but wasn't developed enough as well. All i can see is a bunch of potential going to waste here. Maybe this can be described as a shorter, worse version, of "Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou" ? Both have the same problems but arifureta is a little more developed, has a better character and a more interesting story(imo), this is judging by the current manga ch. btw, i didn't read the novel. Anyway, Dungeon Seeker ended like a shit movie that was not supposed to get a sequel, i'm quite disappointed. ---Now to the actual review--- You can read the synopsis, so i'll skip that. The manga goes from 0 to a 100 in a matter of a few chapters, and then it falls under a boring part, returns to a interesting part of the story to end with a completely shit conclusion. If you want a quick read, go for it, otherwise don't bother. What you can actually expect from it is the regular isekai thing, with a darker world and a mc that is ok with killing people. Like i said, you can compare it with Arifureta. Personally i read this thing within a few days while i was in the bus lol
Junpei Takeda, a meek high school student, regularly suffers at the hands of Kido Shouta and his gang of bullies. Luckily, his childhood friend Noriko Tatsumiya always comes to his rescue. One day, all of them are transported to a fantasy world by an aloof being who calls himself "God." Junpei quickly learns that he is just as weak in this new world as he was in his old one; yet, he now possesses a unique ability that allows him to learn a skill from any enemy he defeats. After months of struggling to survive, Noriko and Kido trick Junpei into entering the "Sacrificial Labyrinth," a dungeon filled with powerful monsters that no one has ever escaped from. Driven by revenge, Junpei ventures deeper into the labyrinth in search of an exit. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
I am reviewing this manga as isekai junkie (someone who likes consuming isekai even if its bad), so please be aware that this will definitely affect my enjoyment and view on the subject. In a time when you have so many copy and paste isekai, its nice to have something that breaks from the mold a little. Although it might not seem like it early on it gets more eclectic/original as you go on. It basically takes an Arifuerta-esc premise, and just stuffs in a bunch of Made in Abyss style depression. If you just blast through it, I think you'll just get much lessout of it than is there. The manga is less about the plot and is more so about the characters that are in it.
I read the manga and it was horrible. The main protagonist is dumped because of a weakling he is. Then of course his only motivation to clear the dungeon is revenge. He goes from goody two shoes to a harbinger of death..? The girl who seems full of sunshine and rainbows turns into a bitch and then.. ahh i don't feel like talking about it. Characters are too bad. I haven't seen worse. Okay I did (SAO), but still. The fights have no logic. The mc can doge easily etc etc because his agility is high? That's an asspull because there were monsters who could killhim easily in the beginning but didn't because he is "the main protagonist". The ending was all over the place. The ending was so bad that hunter x hunter (2011) ending seems better. The ending brought new character which was never introduced or mad a hint before. The ending is not really an ending as I believe they intended to make more manga. Anyway I will end my review here by saying don't read this manga, there are better ones.
I always liked the premise of a character who is betrayed and driven by revenge to get stronger, but this manga does not use very well and ends up distorting halfway and ends in a horrifying way. The manga is very similar to Arifureta, but unlike the one that gives up revenge and begins to focus on how to return to its original world, Dungeon Seeker remains obsessed with revenge, but the ending is so bad that the whole development of the story that It's cool becomes skippable. About the story: Much of the work is interesting, but the ending spoils with virtually all of manga's development. Characters:The main characters are well developed, except for the girl who causes the plot twist of the ending. Art: Beautiful, nothing to complain about. I recommend? If you like Arifureta and want a manga with a similar premise yes, however you might be disappointed with the ending.
Trope-loaded isekai revenge manga done very well. It doesn't really have any shocking deviations from the standard, but it doesn't have anything annoying about it either. There is no annoying forgiveness of a girl because she's hot, no annoying harem, no giving up on revenge due to being a wimp, no protagonist running around raping people and buying slaves because nobody can stand him, none of that bullshit. It's just good, solid, revenge. Characters are consistent, and while it doesn't go super-deep, they all work. Story also works. Art is quite good. This is all the good things in isekai without the typical things that ruina series, so it's quite enjoyable. The ending was fine. I'm not sure why people have so many complaints about it. It was mildly rushed, but it finished everything that had to happen. It changed something appalling in the novel and made it good. Someone wrote a spoiler in the comments that made me almost drop it, but it turned out the spoiler was from the novel and said event doesn't happen in the manga. Overall, if you're looking for a good isekai, this is it.
