A new manga series, “Dungeon Elf – What’s a Dungeon without Treasure Chests?”, has experienced a significant surge in popularity after being recommended by none other than the beloved character Frieren from the hit manga and anime series, “Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End”. This unexpected endorsement has led to a reprint of the manga’s first volume and a wave of new readers eager to dive into the adventures of the treasure-chest-placing elf.

Frieren’s Endorsement: A Golden Ticket

Frieren, the stoic and powerful elf mage, known for her long life and insightful observations, has captured the hearts of manga and anime fans worldwide. Her recommendation carries weight, and when she expressed her enjoyment of “Dungeon Elf,” fans took note. In a statement, Frieren remarked, “I didn’t know there were elves who placed treasure chests. Thanks to them, I can enjoy the dungeon.” This simple yet impactful endorsement has acted as a golden ticket for the relatively unknown manga.

The manga’s official Japanese title is “Dungeon Elf – Dungeon ni Takarabako ga Aru no wa Atarimae desu ka?” and it follows the story of an elven woman who dedicates herself to placing treasure chests in dungeons for adventurers to discover. This seemingly simple premise has resonated with Frieren, herself an elf who has traversed countless dungeons throughout her long life. The manga explores her challenges in this unique endeavor, offering a fresh perspective on dungeon exploration and the often-overlooked elements that make such adventures possible.

A Unique Story That Resonates

The storyline of “Dungeon Elf” offers a unique twist on the typical dungeon-crawling narrative. Instead of focusing on the hero’s quest, it shines a light on the unsung efforts that make these adventures possible. The manga’s premise has been described as charming, focusing on a character who is essentially creating the classic dungeon experience that so many stories rely on. This different approach, coupled with the protagonist’s elven heritage, is what likely appealed to Frieren, given her own background.

“Dungeon Elf” currently has only six chapters available, published in its first volume, making it an easy entry point for new readers. This short commitment, combined with the buzz generated by Frieren’s recommendation, has made it an appealing prospect for fans eager for something new.

Where to Read “Dungeon Elf”

For fans interested in checking out the manga that Frieren herself recommends, “Dungeon Elf – What’s a Dungeon without Treasure Chests?” is available on the manga platform KManga. The English release of the series can be found there, allowing international fans to enjoy the story. The website currently offers the six available chapters, with more expected in the future.

Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End – A Phenomenon

The series responsible for the boost in “Dungeon Elf” is “Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End”. Since its anime adaptation in 2023 and 2024, the series has become a huge hit with fans. The manga itself has sold over 21 million copies, cementing its place as a fan favorite.

The story, which follows the elf mage Frieren after the defeat of the Demon King, is a contemplative and often melancholic tale about the nature of time, loss, and the enduring power of memories. Unlike many adventure stories, “Frieren” focuses on the aftermath of the grand quest, exploring the quiet moments and personal reflections of its characters.

Character Popularity and Impact

The popularity of “Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End” is undeniable. A recent character popularity poll saw over 12.5 million fans cast their votes, highlighting the deep connection many have with the series and its cast. While Himmel, the hero of the original party, topped the poll, Frieren herself came in fifth, demonstrating the broad appeal of the series’ characters.

The influence of the series is so strong that even characters like the Mimic, a creature that is initially a minor antagonist, has become a popular favorite, reflecting the series’ ability to create compelling and memorable characters, no matter how seemingly insignificant.

Other Manga Recommendations for Frieren Fans

For those who enjoy “Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End” and are looking for similar manga experiences, there are several recommendations to consider:

  • “Kino no Tabi (Kino’s Journey)”: This series follows a young traveler and her talking motorcycle as they explore various countries and cultures, delving into philosophical themes.
  • “Mushishi”: Similar to “Kino no Tabi,” this manga features a lone traveler who helps people with supernatural ailments, creating a thoughtful and atmospheric experience.
  • “Fullmetal Alchemist”: Although more action-oriented than “Frieren”, this series also explores deep themes with a unique story and well-developed characters.
  • “Witch Hat Atelier”: This fantasy series features a young girl who dreams of becoming a witch, with a focus on intricate magic and captivating artwork.
  • “The Girl From the Other Side: Siúil, a Rún”: This manga presents a melancholic story of a girl who lives with a supernatural creature, evoking similar themes of loneliness and connection as Frieren.
  • “To Your Eternity”: Following an immortal being’s journey through time, the story is another example of a series that explores profound emotional themes, and has a similar feel to Frieren.
  • “Magus of the Library”: A manga that focuses on a librarian’s passion for books and knowledge and is similar to Frieren due to the quiet and thoughtful approach.

These manga series, while diverse in their specific plots and settings, share similar qualities with “Frieren” including their focus on character development, world-building, and introspective storytelling.

A Testament to the Power of Recommendation

The surge in popularity for “Dungeon Elf – What’s a Dungeon without Treasure Chests?” following Frieren’s recommendation demonstrates the impact that a genuine endorsement can have. It also highlights the power of a well-loved series to introduce fans to new stories.

As “Dungeon Elf” continues to gain popularity, it will be interesting to see how the story develops and how it might continue to influence the broader manga landscape. It’s clear, though, that Frieren’s recommendation has given this manga a significant head start on its journey.
