Made in Abyss

Made in Abyss looks childish. If you think it is for kids. You are Grosly mistaken! Stop that train of thought before it's too late.

Basic plot: it's about a girl and a robot boy who decide to travel down "the abyss" a giant hole for spoiler reasons.

I can calmly say there were Scenes, ney episodes that left me speechless and utterly dumbstruck.

The show is beautifully animated. And to top it all off the plot is completely original and very well fleshed out. You'll enjoy the unique traits of each character and the diverse pacing of the story.

If you are a fan of sci fi adventure, studio ghibli, or are just looking to get your sick kicks. Made in Abyss is for you.

Still we're well into 2018 and no anime came close to Made in Abyss.

Emotional, brutal and beautiful. Don't believe the 1/10 reviews out there, it's being praised everywhere for a reason.

You can tell there was a ton of effort put into this series. As someone who doesn't like the current trends in anime these days, I found massive enjoyment watching Made in Abyss. This might not make sense, but it feels really pure and new. I highly recommend just diving straight into this series without knowing much about it.

Made in Abyss is going down as one of my favorite shows of all time. Not just one of my favorite animes, one of my favorite shows. The characters, world-building, plot progression, music, art style, animation, voice acting (sub and dub), everything is incredible.

The show is a return to fantasy elements, and doesn't set up an rpg style world or borrow from Tolkien or C.S. Lewis. It begins in an optimistic and lighthearted tone with just enough dark implications to get you wondering, but as it goes on it begins to explore the most brutal aspects of being human in an increasingly harsh manor. But it never gets to be too much, and it doesn't feel like gratuitous suffering because the two lead characters push through with hope, determination, and a childish charm.

I really hope Made in Abyss gets another season. I'm dying to know what happens after the latest episode, and I would read ahead in the manga if the author weren't such a creep. If you're prepared for a shockingly dark and intense show with incredible quality and enough high moments to get you through the low ones, then give it a watch. You won't regret it.

Rarely has a show annoyed me so much like "Made in Abyss".

The anime is actually extremely well done in many ways. The presentation is really very good and made me very interested in how the story will unfold and how the characters will develop.

To stay with the characters - they were often really well written and the relationships between the characters also developed in a meaningful way.

The look of the anime and its animations are also extremely lovingly designed, so that you enjoy watching it.

The anime really could have told an extremely interesting story about children entering a world unknown to them, unaware of the dangers of it...

Apparently the author thought there was one thing missing - the sexualization of children... In the first season you got some very questionable scenes - sexual violence on children, very scantily clad children, children getting to know each other's bodies.

Normally I would have stopped the anime a long time ago, but here I looked past it and said to myself that everything makes sense because I was really interested in the story.

But in the middle of the 2nd season I finally stopped the anime - here really no option was left out, if it was possible to portray the characters in light clothing or to sexualize them in some other way.

Without all that weird stuff, the anime could easily have gotten an 8/10 or 9/10 from me, but because of all that slightly pedophilic tinge, I can't give it more than a 6/10, unfortunately, even though the rest was really good.
