listen man i think we're past "in a modern au laois would be a furry." like that's not a headcanon, guys. laios is a furry. it is textually explicit that he is a furry. it's impossible to miss. the climax of the manga dungeon meshi literally hinges around the fact that laois has a fursona. he could not be more obviously a furry
🔥 unsolicited, my unpopular pizza tower opinion is that I um. I don't think peppino is actually any better off postgame. Like financially I mean. It's not like the tower was stealing his customers or anything, and he's still out in the middle of fuckdamn nowhere, which I assume is the main reason his business was failing in the first place. He's got some peace of mind and some new pals postgame sure, but uh. Far as i can tell the main problems haven't really changed at all.
What do you think were some of the first monsters and dishes that Peppino cooked in the Pizza Dungeon? What were everyone's reactions to it?
to answer your question a bit more, everyone came around to the idea eventually but it took a lot of getting there. Noise and Noisette are not picky at all and came up with the idea first. Pepperman surprisingly is enamored with the idea and takes whatever dishes pep cooks in stride, Vigi hates it, and Gustavo begrudgingly accepts it. It took a lot of convincing to get Peppino to actually start butchering monsters but he got sick enough of their rations to try it.
Their first couple monster dishes are... not amazing. Obviously they aren't super skilled with monster anatomy and figuring out what's edible, but with gustavo's help and some basic cooking knowledge they get a lot better. When Fakey joins the party later on he's totally cool with eating other monsters to no one's surprise.
