Dungeons, monsters, and gourmet cuisine in the anime Monster Eater

Read...
The new anime Monster Eater will arrive on Japanese small screens in April. Below you'll find all the info and a new promo.
Nobody wants "Grubby Forager" Rudd on their adventuring team. His nickname - and his stench - come from his constant treks into the Noxious Labyrinth to gather medicinal herbs, a job he survives only thanks to his status immunity skill. When he's finally recruited as a party porter, things seem to be looking up... Until a deadly dungeon monster appears and his fake allies use him as bait before abandoning him! Wounded, destitute, and barely surviving the attack, Rudd breaks a forbidden taboo to stay alive: eating monsters. But the more he devours, the more power he gains, kicking off a thrilling, adventurous gourmet fantasy!

This is the story behind Monster Eater (orig. Mamonogurai no Bokensha), a light novel by Renkino published since 2023, which IMAGICA Infos and Imageworks Studio will adapt into animation.

Directed by Hikaru Sato, with Kazuya Takahashi supervising production, onoken composing the music, and Yuichi Imaizumi directing the audio department.

Expected in April on the Tokyo MX channel, here is the new promo:
