The phrase signifies the practice of accessing and reading the “Dungeon Meshi” comic series without monetary cost, typically via internet platforms. This encompasses various methods, ranging from official promotional offerings to unofficial distribution channels. As an example, a user might search for a website or application that hosts the manga and allows reading it without requiring a subscription or payment per chapter.
The appeal stems from the desire for accessible entertainment, particularly for those with budget constraints or a preference for digital consumption. Historically, comic distribution relied heavily on physical copies, creating limitations in access and cost. The internet facilitates wider dissemination, potentially increasing readership and fandom. This free accessibility also raises questions about copyright and the economic sustainability of content creation.
