"How did Shuro think he could marry Falin when he hated her brother?" you have to understand. Toshiro is from a whole different country. In his head he and Falin would move back to the Eastern Archipelago and they'd see Laios twice a year tops. You can pretend to get along with in-laws you don't like for a few days a year, people do that all the time.

The actual flaw in his plan– which shows he doesn't really understand either of the Touden siblings– is the fact that if the plot hadn't happened and Falin had for some reason said yes to his proposal, Laios would have packed his bags and moved away with them instantly.

#dungeon meshi #laios touden #falin touden #toshiro nakamoto #not only are the touden siblings SUPER codependent #laios wants to go to the eastern archipelago soooooooo bad he'd run home to pack his bags before falin has even finished saying yes #literally on the postcanon comic where falin rejects toshiro he's like OH LET ME GO IN HER STEAD #(which... laios...my man...)#of course in postcanon he couldn't actually go because he's [spoilers] now #but toshiro doesn't know that #toshiro has no idea that a prophecy and falin's lesbianism just saved him from sharing a house with laios as his brother in law

The laishuros and the labrus had a delightful episode today.

Not only did Laios and Shuro have an adorable reunion, full of ~informal~ and affectionate language (to his household’s dismay), but also gentle and affectionate touch, encouraging Shuro to take care of himself.

Then Kabru shamelessly inserts himself into the conversation, bats his eyes at Laios, and tries to “introduce himself,” when the man clearly has no idea who he is.

Kabru then sees Laios leading Shuro away for perfectly normal reasons and goes “I’ll join!!” with as many ulterior motives as possible.

These three have a hilarious dynamic, I want as many scenes with them together as possible.

#laios: SHURO MY BESTIE I LOVE U REJOIN OUR PARTY #kabru: i am looking…👁️🫦👁️…respectfully…nvm i can’t take it anymore i have to bag that man #dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #laios touden #kabru of utaya #kabru #shuro #toshiro nakamoto #laishuro #labru #neo queen serenity’s posts #shuro dungeon meshi #kabru dungeon meshi #laios dungeon meshi #laios x kabru #laios x shuro #shuro x laios #kabru x laios

man laios and toshiro's/shuro's dynamic is incredibly compelling to me on multiple levels

when you look at them, you can see the cultural and personal barriers that drive almost every single aspect of their relationship, both positively and negatively. laios is incredibly outspoken and driven by his passions, which he expresses freely even in the face of annoyance and/or criticism- he's allowed to be as authentically himself as he pleases, and it's this drive that allows him and the others to survive as long as they have, especially due to the fact that these passions and interests are intertwined with his skills as a dungeon diver. toshiro, in contrast, is incredibly reserved, not only due to his eastern upbringing but also his status as nobility- a combo of cultures that both demand that one save face, to avoid conflict at any cost, even at the expense of one's own feelings and individuality. this, in turn, has made toshiro the perfect samurai, as he's politely-spoken, agreeable, and an honorable, skilled man. both are also incredibly devoted to falin on different levels, having come to accomplish the same mission of her rescue despite drifting apart from the party.

on the flipside, it's these same strengths that cause them to clash- laios is outspoken but unable to truly decipher the emotions of others, leading to a lot of false assumptions and frustration from those who interact with him. toshiro is stoic but to the point of complacency, leading to a aggressively neutral disposition that's ushered by the needs and wants of others, rather than himself. neither man truly knows where they stand with the people important to them in their lives, and hold the ones that they do know how they feel with a fierce admiration expressed in ways that aren't always traditional.

in the end, they both share a growing feeling of isolation from other people that comes to a head when they meet again in the depths of the dungeon, and they both have different ways of coping with the frustrations that arise, seeing the other as only the things they have seen face to face.

it's laios' ability to express himself emotionally without consequence that sparks jealousy in toshiro, leading to a physical fight born out of miscommunication and envy. while toshiro is a driving force in the conflict, it should be noted that the actual fight is started by laios, breaking the dam of indirect communication through force. nothing is more direct than a slap to the face, and it's only after they start hitting each other that toshiro's true feelings come to light.

however, at the end of it all, toshiro is the one who stops torturing himself, listening to laios and giving him the bell, allowing laios and his party entrance into his homeland should they need it, and ultimately giving him support in his mission to defeat the dungeon mage, albeit in his own way. despite it all, they're still good friends with a conflict that boiled over, but came out the other end with a slightly better understanding of each other. the fight was painful for both of them, but it was a necessity for their dynamic to improve, and for them to be made aware of their faults and improve as individuals as well.

but also, if you think about it, their dynamic is literally just this

#dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #laios touden #laios dungeon meshi #toshiro nakamoto #shuro #shuro dungeon meshi #character analysis #anyways toshiro haters with surface level takes get the hell off my lawn boy #i hope you know this entire character analysis was born out of the realization that i'd seen this dynamic before in a different light #and i thought. man. what is the funniest comparison i could make here rn. and i'm still right abt it btw #oh yeah also of course the autism read is still there #as an autistic person myself they don't read at all like neurotypical v autism. they read a LOT more like autism v autism #you know how people with autism either get along REALLY well with other people with autism or repel each other with a force #yeah they're basically that. to me #reading toshiro as autistic with the immigrant lens btw makes him even more compelling to read that way #but that is an analysis for another time #man i missed writing these #dungeon meshi spoilers

Falin and Shuro headcanons ( they’re trans your honour 🫡)

I really like the idea of them both representing a chance at a certain type of marriage that they feel they’re not going to get again.

#my comics #falin touden #toshiro nakamoto #shuro dungeon meshi #ive been thinking of this a lot lately #ive always thought of falin as a trans woman and while thinking about all the ways that shuro really looks up to her relates to her #is inspired by her #my mind started working. about trans man shuro #and I feel it really does fit a lot and opens up interesting avenues of thought regarding his presentation #and his relationship with his father brothers and maizuru and his retainers (particularly hien)#going to draw comics about that when my ass is not in the lunch room but I was thinking all morning about this #and wanted to put it to the page #dungeon meshi

i can't stop thinking about transfem shuro while working on my analysis.. . it's kind of funny actually. i'll be writing something like "i think subconsciously part of his admiration for falin is how she represents a part of himself he felt like he couldn't have, where he can approach from a safe distance" and you add all the stuff about how at the whims of conformity and social rules he is, and how held back he is in expressing himself at all, and how he's a sensitive person deep down but is something that's covered up under a guise of (masculine, at that) seriousness, and how he explicitly likes falin for being an Unconventional Girl who is Herself, where he likely feels he couldn't be (and where they also have a lot in common) and it's like "Hey. Why are you like... . Transgender"

#talk #anime and manga #delicious in dungeon #dungeon meshi #toshiro nakamoto #he's over here getting told ''man up and stop crying; you're a guy aren't you?''#estrogen could have saved her for realsies #and honestly falin is so transfem herself so when it's already such a ''you get it'' moment...#such a special place in my heart really #i have to add it as a section to my post because like people aren't ready for this conversation but its a narratively excellent take tbh #the gender envy aspect of things could be so real #it's not even necessarily my own personal belief but it is something where i'm like #''THERE'S A WHOLE CAN OF WORMS HERE IS ANYONE GONNA TAKE THEM??? CAN SOMEONE TAKE MY WORMS''

“Why doesn’t Toshiro just tell Laios that’s not his name??” He’s an immigrant, next question

#i have not met a single person who doesn’t mispronounce my name except my old arabic teachers in school #which is a shame because it’s really pretty in arabic #and instead people say it with that fucking long aa sound that I fucking hate #but i’m not going to sit down and teach every person i ever talk to how to properly say it #sometimes they can’t even say it because certain sounds aren’t in english #of course it’s not a complete butcher like shuro #but free my man i understand him so much #toshiro nakamoto #dunmeshi #dungeon meshi #ryoko kui

the way ppl feel the need to immediately paint POC men as abusive towards yt women needs to be studied

A MoC could be nothing but nice and cordial and still be read as aggressive and predatory simply for existing next to a white woman not because of their actions but because a lot of yt people inherently see them as a threat

#ri✨talks #asks #before you bounce on my dick! I didn’t say all so if this doesn’t apply to you delete whatever think piece you’re writing #this isn’t even specifically about dunmeshi cause this has happened so many times but #still going crazy about people thinking he’d throw her in a dark room cause he’s bored of her like that man is working himself to death #dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #trying to find her #toshiro nakamoto

How I feel about this and next week's dungeon meshi episodes

I'm already seeing people going at it and it's gonna get SO much worse next week when The Fight™ happens. I am so tired. I just wanna stare at my and marcille's hot dragon chicken wife. Is that too much to ask?

#dungeon meshi #falin touden #toshiro nakamoto #part of me is like eh whatever at a man getting the same treatment for getting 'in the way' of a wlw ship #that girls always get for 'threatening' an mlm ship #but at the same time HE'S NOT EVEN GETTING IN THE WAY OF ANYTHING?? BFFR RN THAT MAN IS NOT A THREAT TO FARCILLE let us all calm down #also i think the conflict between laios and toshiro is one of the best written conflicts where you understand both parties #and neither is fully in the wrong or right. and both of their experiences describe something marginalized people irl can deeply relate to #(autistic trauma on one hand and wheathering microagressions without speaking up bcs you don't want to Make A Scene on the other)#and i am NOT looking forward to seeing ppl flatten it into 'shuro's evil laios good bean' LET MY DUDES HAVE NUANCE

"How can Toshiro loves Falin when he dislikes Laios that much? Another man seeing an autistic woman as a "manic pixie girl" but who would treat her badly."

Yeah, Falin and Laios are totally the same person. It's not like Falin is more reserved and Laois is more loud and extroverted, so Toshiro is more comfortable with with her because of that. Not at all. (/huge sarcasm)

#laios touden #toshiro nakamoto #falin touden #dungeon meshi #stop finding excuses to be racist and to deny that that man is also nd #I'm a lot like him in my nd behavior and I am so uncomfortable when people gets too loud #poc and nd behaving like Toshiro unit to protect him

i swear this panel drives me INSANE. this as a visual while the text says "it feels like we're pretty close", them being the same age but hien already having developed her tough personality while he's still a sensitive boy. this being one of the FEW things we know about their relationship. what tje hell man what the hell
