Yeah, there is a bit of emphasis on how sustainability is important and dungeons are very balanced magical systems here. Also the cooking is modeled after real life recipes, so it looks delicious. It's a weird combo, but the author makes it work well. I hope it gets an anime at one point!

I agree with most of that. It can be interesting, but at this point portal fantasies are pretty common, so there has to be more going on for it to work for me. I will check out the Slime thing, the work of building coalitions sounds amazing!
