Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? (Japanese: ダンジョンに出会いを求めるのは間違っているだろうか Hepburn: Danjon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darō ka?), also known as DanMachi (ダンまち?) for short, and with English subtitle Familia Myth, is a Japanese light novel series, written by Fujino Ōmori and illustrated by Suzuhito Yasuda. SB Creative has published nine volumes since January 2013 under their GA Bunko imprint. It has received a spin-off light novel series and three manga adaptations. An anime television series adaptation by J.C.Staff aired from April 4 to June 27, 2015. An OVA was released on December 7, 2016. An anime television series adaptation of the spin-off series is scheduled to air in April 2017.
The story takes place in the fictional country of Orario whose main feature place is the Dungeon (ダンジョン Danjon?) which contains an assortment of monsters from goblins to dragons. Adventurers visit the dungeon to defeat monsters and take their crystal shards, which are used to craft magic items, among other treasures; however, they can also be exchanged for the world's currency. The people of Orario join groups called Familia (ファミリア Famiria?), who serve a range of functions from dungeon crawling to crafting items. Each Familia is named after and serves a resident deity. In a fashion similar to role playing games, the adventurers are grouped into levels, increasing their levels and abilities according to their achievements.
