I didn’t realize it before your comment but it’s absolutely that. I even saw it before I think, let me find the page…

EDIT: here, number 13:

I just realized that there’s another example of these “ryakuji” in your picture, the 門 of 新聞 that’s written like number 2 here:

Oddly enough I managed to read this one correctly first try without noticing that the 門 part was completely mangled. The 魔 character I think I read like 広 which is obviously incorrect and makes no sense here.

I guess we’ll have to keep an eye for these shorthands in the handwritten text of this manga…

Ah, this image is great! And so is the wikipedia article. Thanks! I already knew 門 (I think it’s pretty common) but the others I haven’t encountered before that I’m aware of.

Interestingly, it doesn’t actually fit the wikipedia 略字 list

It is written 新門 （門 instead of 聞)

But 2 in the list is providing a 略字 for 門 - ie 门

I don’t follow, the 耳 is clearly written here:

And wikipedia does mention these “derived characters” which follow the same pattern, using 間 as an example

 ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/wanikanicommunity/original/4X/7/5/1/75189a16ca36bd80a3ca96e805a075623592da5b.png)  
I already didn’t understand one of your comments in the 変な家 thread the other day and then felt like an idiot when it finally clicked, I hope I’m not repeating the performance…

Yeah, for that particular example, Wikipedia’s just depicting the general radical form - the same ryakuji can be used regardless of what’s inside it. The 間 version showed up in Yotsuba back in volume two or three.

Actually, now I’m wondering if there’s anything which appears inside a 門 radical which **also** has its own ryakuji form…

If you look at #11 in the image I linked, you have a simplified form for the inside of 闘 with 斗. So I suppose technically this is possible:

There’s something really sad about that image…  
Like, imagine going backwards in time and seeing humans devolving back into apes and then into primitive single cell organisms…

I looked straight at that one while pondering the question, and somehow failed to follow through with the train of thought…

I was really surprised how chill they all were, when the sister literally got eaten alive 😅 But then they talked about the revival and I remembered how the setting is similar to DnD and other TTRPGs. That was the one thing I knew about the series beforehand, but it still caught me off guard 😂

The discussion about whether they could revive her from excrements, if I recall correctly caught me off-guard.

It reminded me of a dnd session I had, where we kept on putting corpses of NPCs into our bag of holding to revive them/give them funerals. And we discussed how much of them we need to bring etc 😂

Haha I love that. Played a bit of DnD too and I love that the manga has that vibe too! Weird adventures and creative problem solving

I learnt this week that the English title “Delicious in Dungeon” is a deliberate reference to DnD. I thought it was just regular old imperfect English. 😛
