Twitter screenshot of a conversations between users izzybela and Halimede.

izzybela: i want to play magic the gathering with a girl who hits me when i lose

Halimede: this is self-harm. please don't resort to that

izzybela: it's not self harm if another girl is doing it to me >.< beautiful women hurting me is one of my favorite hobbies you wouldn't deprive a girl of her hobbies would you

Halimede: what? no. consensual bdsm is fine. of course. I'm a lesbian - do you think I'm some kind of prude??? I mean the magic gathering part

An addendum.
From ANN's article "Fighting for a Better Anime Industry - An Interview with Animator Supporters' Jun Sugawara and Genga-chan" by Coop Bicknell, the interviewer asks the question "whenever stories of crunch and untenable work conditions hit the animator community, be they big stories like MAPPA's troubles with Jujutsu Kaisen or small ones that are privately shared, how to they tend to process the news? How does that affect morale? Do they hope that speaking out is going to make a change? Or that it's perhaps another story that people will forget about? Sugawara then replies: "[Nervous chuckles] Regarding MAPPA, it's said there's a rule that you're not supposed to talk about it. Genga-chan then follows with: "It's difficult, so people tend to keep it bottled up and don't necessarily talk about it. Sugawara concludes the answer with: "Most people who work in animation are fundamentally artistic, and a weird fact of the situation is that a difficult environment can sometimes lead to greater artistic work. There's an irony in that perspective. But unfortunately, such methodologies are unsustainable, and they result in people quitting.

It was actually outsourced, which is neat
A Tweet from kViN of sakugabooru saying "Dungeon Meshi #06 was produced by Enishiya. In an era when outsourcing has sadly become synonymous with dodgy conditions & poor resulting quality, it's great to see a small but very capable studio like them that can actually raise the bar with impressive, smart, and amusing craft"
