Is this the clsoest thing we have to LoTR?

Slayer doujins aside, why havent we gotten anything else than Dungeon Meshi?

Shouldnt a D&D type high fantasy manga/anime with some group being on a journey to defeat a evil villain be easy to come up with? Yet we have only few of these kinda manga.

Whats with that? Do Nips inherently dislike Western fantasy tropes?

You answered your own question
They're japanese not westeners circlejerking over Tolkien

Without even clicking the image or reading your post fully I knew you were talking about Dungeon Meshi. The answer is no, Dungeon Meshi is just really good.

Drifters is better.

Dungeon Meshi is just good by itself, not because it's like Tolkien's bullshit.

>Is this the clsoest thing we have to LoTR?
No, you uncultured swine.

I thought they were parodying old video games.

Don't compare Dungeon Meshi to that trash.

Jesus fucking Christ, OP. Are you retarded?

What's this?

Kill yourself

Go to bed granpa

user please

>7.5 in MAL
>No name show
OP said good animes

This is some high quality bait. Well thought out too. Good job.

The closest thing we have to LoTR is Crest/Banner of the Stars.

Ah, you almost got me.

>caring about MAL
Kill yourself, my man

it's difficult to draw up medieval/fantasy designs rather than use the real world around you as a reference. You don't see many future settings for that reason either

There are some fucking fags in this thread.

>Check
>One guy rated the art a 3/10

How pleb can you possibly be?

The Japanese D&D craze ended somewhere in the 90s, now they only do video game-based comedy fantasy and nothing else.

Why don't we get anime inspired by Heavy Metal anymore?

Why is her leg so long?

For sexy

>is this the closest thing we have to LoTR

Except this is a jrpg my boy. It's a genre with a long history and concept. They aren't trying copy tolkien.

Because we are currently suffering an isekai plague

I hope you die

Remember when isekai was good?

>plague
There's hardly two or three a season max

How is that not a plague

Compared to literally every other genre airing not really

Name one other genre that is this dominated by a sub genre right now

>animeonlyfags
The manga word is plagued by shitty isekais

We get like 2-3 new isekais every month

I havent noticed that, doesnt it get filtered by translators?

t eri

>The Japanese D&D craze ended somewhere in the 90s
It got the second wind with Isekai though.

Nips are too pussy for those.

Dungeon Meshi isn't like LotR at all, it's straight up DnD.

those aren't D&D inspired, though. They're MMORPG / DragonQuest inspired.

Did you actually had a look at picrelated?

Actually, it's straight-up Wizardry, which itself is based on D&D.
Heck, the Dungeon Meshi-one shot even had a nekkid ninja-joke.

Ïts pretty Tolkien though.

Most japanese fantasyboo first exposure to western fantasy is tru Dragon Quest, thats why most of the time Orcs are humanoid pigs.
And Dungeon Meshi is D&D not Tolkien bullshit tho.

>And Dungeon Meshi is D&D not Tolkien bullshit tho.
Partially true.

What are you talking about Isekai and Fantasy is bigger than ever

because its played out and lame

Lemnear was muh waifu.

My nigga here looks like he knows his shit.
Too bad we are for these
Faggots, too old to be on Sup Forums.
We should probably retire.
