Dived into the Abyss Yet?
For those unfamiliar with the series, *Made in Abyss* originated as a manga in 2012, crafted by Akihito Tsukushi and serialized on Web Comic Gamma. The story centers on Riko, a young orphan residing in the town of Orth, which encircles a colossal vertical chasm known as the Abyss. This mysterious abyss is teeming with ancient technology, bizarre creatures, and a haunting enigma that has claimed many explorers.
Riko's ambition is to emulate her mother, Lyza, a renowned White Whistle Cave Raider who vanished into the depths of the Abyss. Her journey takes a significant turn when she encounters Reg, a half-robot boy with amnesia. Together, they embark on a perilous descent into the Abyss, fully aware that they might never make it back.
The manga's success led to an anime adaptation in 2017, followed by a sequel film, *Dawn of the Deep Soul*, released in Japan in 2020. Additionally, in 2022, Chime Corporation released a console and PC RPG titled *Made in Abyss: Binary Star Falling into Darkness*.
