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, an orphan from the town of Orth, which sits atop a colossal vertical chasm known as the Abyss. This mysterious place is teeming with ancient technology, bizarre creatures, and untold secrets that have claimed countless explorers.

Riko's ambition is to emulate her mother, Lyza, a renowned White Whistle Cave Raider who vanished into the depths of the Abyss. Accompanied by Reg, a robotic boy with no recollection of his origins, Riko embarks on a perilous journey into the Abyss, fully aware that they might never make it back to the surface.

The manga's popularity led to its adaptation into an anime in 2017, followed by a sequel film, Dawn of the Deep Soul, released in Japan in 2020. Additionally, in 2022, Chime Corporation introduced a console and PC RPG, Made in Abyss: Binary Star Falling into Darkness, further expanding the franchise's reach.
