Dived into the Abyss Yet?
For those new to the series, Made in Abyss originated as a manga in 2012, penned by Akihito Tsukushi and serialized on Web Comic Gamma. The story centers around Riko, a young orphan from the town of Orth, which borders the enigmatic Abyss—a vast, vertical chasm teeming with ancient technology, bizarre creatures, and a profound mystery that has claimed many lives. Riko's ambition is to emulate her mother, Lyza, a renowned White Whistle Cave Raider who vanished into the depths of the Abyss.
During her journey, Riko encounters Reg, a half-robot boy with amnesia. Together, they embark on a perilous descent into the Abyss, fully aware of the risks involved. The manga's popularity 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 launched a console and PC RPG titled "Made in Abyss: Binary Star Falling into Darkness."
