For me, it has to be HXH and One Piece. Are there any other shows that can compete with those two's worldbuilding?

Dungeon Meshi has ludicrous detail. Even more with the bonus chapters of the manga.

I loved watching Dungeon Meshi. Very casual, fun, and sometimes intense. I didn't think too much about its worldbuilding before but now that you say it, it is indeed very detailed.

It's especially impressive considering it takes place within a single dungeon on a small island.

Like when it was pitched to me I thought, "neat, a small focused story" and then the scope of the world-building is just insane.

S2 will go so much further in that regard.
