After episode 12, we’re on chapter 34 of the manga out of 97, on a series with a promised 24 episodes, by Trigger which has never done multiple seasons of any show, and which has adapted the story EXTREMELY close to the source without rushing anything.
Am i the only one worried about how the hell are they gonna adapt the remaining chapters in the remaining 12 episodes?
Unless Trigger breaks their streak and they actually have a second season of one of their shows for the first time in their history (I’m ABSOLUTELY IN if they do), i just don’t see how they’re gonna do it, they have NOT rushed any part of the story yet, and i don’t see much if anything of the manga that could be safely cut without structurally compromising the story.
Do we know if they have promised an S2 or something? What do we know?

I wouldn’t be worried. Reading through the Production Notes articles for this series on Sakugablog, a lot of the key staff members are huge fans of the source manga. They would move heaven and earth to see this adaptation through to the end based on what I have seen of translated interviews.
I can tell you for a fact they are NOT adapting the remaining chapters in the remaining episodes. I’m sure of it.
The chapters in the manga only grow and get more substantial. The pace started off at 3 chapters an episode, and is now at 2 chapters an episode.
I fully expect to see a single chapter episode, eventually.
And Trigger has already broken their no more stuff of same IP rule with Dynazenon, Gridman Universe and others.
The reason they don’t continue stories they have finished, is artistic integrity. The same reason leaves me completely doubtless, they will not be rushing Dungeon Meshi or doing it dirty in any way.
Worst case it’s a financial flop, and they don’t finish it, but I fully expect they plan to.
