Is this the clsoest thing we have to LoTR?

>>155405198
You answered your own question
They're japanese not westeners circlejerking over Tolkien

>>155405198
Without even clicking the image or reading your post fully I knew you were talking about Dungeon Meshi. The answer is no, Dungeon Meshi is just really good.

>>155405198
Drifters is better.

>>155405198
Dungeon Meshi is just good by itself, not because it's like Tolkien's bullshit.

No, you uncultured swine.

>>155405198
I thought they were parodying old video games.

>>155405198
Don't compare Dungeon Meshi to that trash.

This is some high quality bait. Well thought out too. Good job.

The closest thing we have to LoTR is Crest/Banner of the Stars.

Kill yourself, my man

it's difficult to draw up medieval/fantasy designs rather than use the real world around you as a reference. You don't see many future settings for that reason either

The Japanese D&D craze ended somewhere in the 90s, now they only do video game-based comedy fantasy and nothing else.

Except this is a jrpg my boy. It's a genre with a long history and concept. They aren't trying copy tolkien.

It got the second wind with Isekai though.

>>155407741
Nips are too pussy for those.

>>155405198
Dungeon Meshi isn't like LotR at all, it's straight up DnD.

>>155413101
those aren't D&D inspired, though. They're MMORPG / DragonQuest inspired.

>>155413251
Did you actually had a look at picrelated?

>>155413206
Actually, it's straight-up Wizardry, which itself is based on D&D.
Heck, the Dungeon Meshi-one shot even had a nekkid ninja-joke.

>>155413206
Ïts pretty Tolkien though.

>>155405198
Most japanese fantasyboo first exposure to western fantasy is tru Dragon Quest, thats why most of the time Orcs are humanoid pigs.
And Dungeon Meshi is D&D not Tolkien bullshit tho.
