Delicious in Dungeon vols 9-14 by Ryoko Kui (trans. Taylor Engel), 1256 pages.
This final arc of Delicious in Dungeon follows the party as they finally reach the lowest levels of the dungeon, and find deeply hidden secrets about its basic nature. While previous volumes have dealt a lot with exploration and eating monsters, this gets more deeply into the meat of the plot (if you'll forgive the pun). Reaching the mad mage is only the beginning.
This was a very satisfying end to a series I was really enjoying. The twists felt well implemented, and I really liked the arcs for all of the characters. I want especially to shout out volume 14, which allowed the series one slow volume right at the end to wrap everything up in a way that felt very relaxed and complete. This, as much as anything else, really emphasizes what a character focused series this was. Highly recommended as a relatively short, approachable manga to enter the genre through.
