For those following Dungeon Meshi, also known as Delicious in Dungeon, it’s been an entertaining and refreshingly clever take on fantasy anime, focusing on survival, friendship, and the many forms of life’s tasty bounty. However, much like any popular anime, this comes with emerging fandoms that resonate with its lovable characters. One user, emfox.png, took to Reddit with her friend as they cosplayed Falin and Marcille from Delicious in Dungeon, achieving striking results and a vocal, positive response from the community.

Delicious in Dungeon was recently adapted by Studio Trigger for streaming on Netflix, becoming an enormous hit with the anime community. Along with near-unanimous praise from critics, it’s been well-received by viewers and longtime enjoyers of Studio Trigger’s output, and it’s hard to see why not.

Delicious in Dungeon features rich characters and an approachable, delightful premise while keeping an open mind about what monsters could reasonably be considered food. It also features distinctive characters perfect for cosplay, which is the cherry on top.

Delicious in Dungeon Cosplay Shoot Shows a Selfless Friend Duo

Two Real-Life Friends Embody Falin and Marcille in Cosplay Shoot

Spotted on Reddit, user u/Emfoxpng recently posted a selfie of herself in Marcille cosplay and her friend dressed as Falin in a striking Delicious in Dungeon homage. The two embody their characters well, with Emfox resting her face on her replica of Marcille’s staff, Ambrosia, staring into the camera with bright green contacts and the character’s signature blonde braids. Ever the close pair, Falin is not far behind, with eyes of a similar color to Falin’s, a fitting cosplay duo for friends in real life and the characters depicted.

Falin Touden’s fate largely sparks the plot of Delicious in Dungeon, with Marcille working alongside Falin’s brother, Laios, and their party to rescue her. The ensuing bond between Marcille and Falin is unsurprising: both are magic users with personalities that play well off each other. However, they are also willing to put their lives at risk for one another, which is a wholesome bond Delicious in Dungeon fans anywhere can thoroughly enjoy. The natural friendship in this Delicious in Dungeon cosplay photo is hard to overlook.

Along with an impressive variety of cosplay photos on her Reddit profile, emfox.png has an Instagram account with 91.5k followers and counting, actively adding new content when she can. Outside of Delicious in Dungeon, emfox has done cosplay shoots for Spy x Family, Chainsaw Man, Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End, DARLING in the FRANXX, and many more. She tackles an impressive variety of characters, including gender-bent takes on iconic villains like Sukuna from Jujutsu Kaisen, so she’s also full of surprises.

However, the Delicious in Dungeon cosplay shoot radiates a different energy, especially given the more straightforward aspects of her portrayal of Marcille. It’s done excellently, and people will surely wish to see more of her in the future. While the Delicious in Dungeon anime aired its season 1 finale on June 13, 2024, cosplay treatments like emfox.png’s will become more frequent as people catch the series and more of its iconic characters on Netflix.
