Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? V
Oshimeter
Synopsis
Fresh from clawing his way back from the deepest, deadliest floors of the Dungeon, literally going through hell, Bell Cranel is now in Orario wanting nothing more than to enjoy the Goddess Festival, a city-wide celebration where fertility goddesses get their moment in the spotlight. Simple enough, right? Then a letter arrives from Syr Flova, the quiet waitress at the Hostess of Fertility tavern, asking him on a date during the festival. What starts as a seemingly lighthearted invitation pulls Bell into something way more complicated than any monster fight he's faced underground. This is Season 5 of DanMachi, and if you've been following Bell's journey from wide-eyed rookie to someone who can hold his own against the Dungeon's worst, this is where relationships and long-simmering mysteries finally come to a head. The mythology woven into Orario's world, gods living among mortals, divine blessings shaping power structures, keeps getting richer. J.C.Staff handles both the action sequences and the quieter character moments with care across these 15 episodes, and the soundtrack genuinely elevates the emotional beats. If you liked Sword Oratoria's deeper look at Orario's politics, this season scratches a similar itch but from Bell's perspective. Fans of I Left My A-Rank Party will appreciate the dungeon-crawling stakes mixed with evolving party dynamics. Don't mistake the festival backdrop for filler, there's real tension underneath the celebration, and the payoff is worth the buildup.

The animation is pretty decent, but the POV style they chose feels a bit off. Again, they've got pretty intense chase scenes. Ultimately, though, it boils down to the fact that love is some crazy shit, dude. Learn to let go without creating full-scale wars!
This episode totally sets up the last one really well, hypes you up completely. Looking forward to how they end up taking down the King, bro is an absolute tank! Can't wait for the end!
Again, the pacing is maintained, the kind where you can't look away for a second, or you're gonna miss something important. Surprising reveals, an unexpected appearance, all of this really pulls you in.
Pretty amazing episode, the action really picked up and made up for all the episodes before that. Ryu was totally on fire (quite literally). Amazing episode! must-watch<3
A good fighting combo at the end, and I really felt the tense moment led by Vana Freya. What stayed with me is how extreme love can become, to the point you lose yourself. It was a bittersweet ending for me; I’m left with a strange feeling.
Even if it doesn’t seem like it, for me Heind is one of the most realistic characters and I like that. I also got a deeper understanding of how others see Freya and who she really is compared to Syr.
It was hilarious how Loki Familia played their cards to take some kind of advantage. Liliruca really shows improvement as a strategist. The roles in this fight are finally changing!
Ryuu was waiting for the right moment, she was farming a lot of aura and she succeed. I really needed this development, it was getting stressful. This episode really belongs to Ryu, it gave me chills
They completely turned the situation around. Powerful, but still bad players. The healing spell is insane! The pacing feels weird, like slow but rushed at the same time. Freya Familia has main character aura, they need to do something!
I appreciated how the other familias supported Hestia Familia. Liliruca has really grown and gained confidence. I'm really excited about future events, I hope the development doesn't disappoint me!!!
I really disagree with Horn and Freya point of view. Yes, Bell might be naive, but those are his feelings. What a tantrum. Hestia had a GOAT moment here.
The most not-hide-and-seek game of hide and seek I have ever seen being played. Also, auto-heal is fucking sick, but that's lowkey hacking, Vans face pisses me off, but he's lowkey decent. Why are all the women being slashed across the chest aaaa
Freya brought this on herself, honestly. Apart of everything that's happening , I agree with Hedin’s mindset, if you do something, do it right and till the end. I really needed Bell’s courage back, that gave me life.
Freya’s way of thinking is really distorted, but it helps build the story. The pacing is stressing me out, I need some kind of satisfaction. Bell, I’m rooting for you.
I don’t tolerate Freya’s actions. I can see her intelligence and quick reaction, but it’s frustrating. The pacing is making me rage a little bit!
I personally love all the cat girls, but feel awful for Anya. Also, Bell might be a dense airhead, but I love his forgiving personality and the respect between him and Hestia. Extremely hyped for the game!
What a surprising start, my mind was malfunctioning. This is getting interesting, I really like where this is going. The story development is really good!
I don’t fully agree with Syr’s actions toward Bell, but in some way I understand it. I agree a lot with Welf’s reflection, he kwon things. The fight animation was smooth, and that last story twist was crazy.
Horn really got fkin into it bro, Bell should really take a damn hint (T_T) Well with all this pain and hurt, I think I've come to the conclusion that it's pretty wrong to pick up girls in a dungeon, heavy drama episode, still enjoyable tho.
The moment in the cathedral was nice, it felt a bit wholesome. The visuals of Bell and Syr with the music fit well, and the pacing felt fair, a bit of everything.
