Second best. Call of the night is better imo. This season is also weaker than the first season, and has dragged on a bit long

Classroom of the elite is best in this season is what I feel

Wake up to reality! Nothing ever goes as planned in this accursed world.The longer you live, the more you realize that the only things that truly exist in this reality are merely pain, suffering and futility.Everywhere you look in this world,wherever there is light, there will always be shadows to be found as well.As long as there is a concept of victors, the vanquished will also exist.The selfish intent of wanting to preserve peace, initiates war and hatred is born in order to protect love.

Call of the night is a good show but i wouldn’t say the best this season. As for cote imma be honest while i do like it there just isn’t really much going on apart from like a few episodes and even in those it’s just like a few minutes of actual good stuff

Only one I would say could compete for me is Kingdom S4, but idk if that really count since it started in spring. There’s a lot of good shows airing this season, I just think MiA is the best by a wide margin. Personally my anime of the year so far.

No it is not the best anime this season, that honor goes to Parallel World Pharmacy.

It warms my heart seeing some fans realising what I already knew, before this season went on air, that this anime would either get stuck, start dragging is feet and pull the biggest Deus ex Machina this industry has seen in a long while.

That or they would make one or both of the kids some type/kind of Abyss Jesus or something in those lines.

The sign were all there, à la The Promised Neverland that the show was headed into a certain direction, a bit more subtle than Promised Neverland, but nonetheless going towards a soft? Hard? Disaster.

But what do I know?

Absolutely. I'd even say it's top 3 anime this year. But this anime season has very weak so that isn't much of a compliment. Besides Overlord and Isekai Ojisan, everything has been a 7/10 at best.

Probably, yes and I’m not saying definitely just because there are a couple of shows I’ve been meaning to check out and haven’t yet, though I doubt they’ll contend with made in abyss.

Though it does bear mentioning that this season is a bit worse than previous entries imo and took quite a while to get going, but it would still probably end up as aots for me and maybe even aoty, but the last episodes are still ahead of us and next season looks pretty packed so who knows.

I guess yes but this season disappointed me a lil bit. I was so hyped after first season, It was awesome and pure art but this season is feels like am not watching made in abyss anymore, I can't feel that atmosphere and my curiosity dropped a lot. For me what makes made in abyss good is well written side characters it has and their deep stories, music (frickin awesome), the world, feeling curiosity over anything but also you scare from those things, everytime something new happens and we learn but questions are also getting bigger and bigger. It was awesome, the first season. But for second, characters aren't interesting, I mean how can they be, most of them are can't even talk they are just some meatballs. Also because of there is no change of layers so we only stuck on one world which is not that entertaining, at first glance I think like "omg last layer, finally" but yeah it is just like a desert and it has some villagers in it from Minecraft. Holy fuck but that village even has an iron golem bro. The whole world feels like Minecraft now, it has nothing. (i like Minecraft but it is what it is) I mean I do understand the philosophy they wanna make and try to tell, it is good but gosh you don't make me care for what you say, really. And then Riko... most uninteresting character ever, she isn't develop one bit from the very first episode and her mother's story is still a fkin mystery, it feels cheap you know, a cheap trick to make you curious and watch. Well I am gonna watch but its just some cheap trick. Also Rikos story supposed to be main story ig but over 10 episode we only met with Regs ex love, princess. Which is her story doesn't mean much cuz they AGAIN made up some drama with flashbacks, AGAIN. First with Mitty i cried, then prushka which is a cheap tearjerker but its worked and AGAIN some flashback story with some drama over a girl that can't even talk and has zero story just wants to be a mother cuz society says so. Story is not bad but let me live it, not SEE it! I NEED TO LIVE THOSE THINGS TO FEEL, NOT JUST SAW FROM FLASHBACKS. I am not gonna compare Call of the night to the made in abyss, I mean I know they aren't in the same league If I'm gonna speak objectively but on the other hand Call of the night is more fun and the atmosphere it has is better for me, also as a Monogatari fan I really enjoyed it with same transitions and dialogue structure. It feels like a different arc with different characters from monogatari. So subjectively speakin I think call of the night is better, that's because I was expecting something more from Made in abyss after it's magical first season. I wrote a lot tho...

Best seasonal this season by a land mile. Every other seasonal can't keep up. Yokafushi no Uta is average apart from the music, Isekai Ojisan is not coming back till September, and Lycoris will continue to be dropped.

Made in Abyss releases banger after banger every week and we still have people saying Call of the Morning has been better smh. One of the highest-rated anime that still keeps being slept on. Make it make sense.

Yes it is, but the first season was much stronger. The star of MIA is the great worldbuilding - and i haven't seen enough of it. I didn't like Call of the night, tried to read the manga before and it got boring very fast. Rent a Girlfriend, Devil is a parttimer were very disappointing to me.

Looking forward to the fall season. Could and should be a golden season.

- Mob 3
- Chainsaw
- Spy X
- to your Eternity

all of them have the potential to get a rating of 8.5 or higher

I have watched all of them.. Personally MiA S2 is the best, i mean its 5 years worth of content magically adapted in only 12 eps WITHOUT ANY MAJOR CUT.

Classroom of The Elites is not even in the best arc now in the LN, there is a cut everywhere, theres animation error too.. Yofukashi no Uta is great, i love the color palletes and the directing.. But this anime is still too shallow compared to MiA S2 plot, but dont worry the story will be more interesting later. As for Overlord S4.. I mean you are literally like watching MiA S2 without watching the movie 3 first.. They literally skipped a fkn huge arc, WHERES MY NEIA BARAJA!! Welp, even the Kingdom invasion isnt much better, theres still a cut, like the scene where that stupid noble attacking Magic Kingdom Caravan... Still enjoyable but can be better..

If there is something that can close to MiA S2 is Lycoris Recoil, it have huge impact and hype since eps 1.. Its gradually getting better with more plot and character revealed, the graphic, chara design is also great too.. It might be the AOTS if it were not in the same season as MiA S2..

The thing that i really loves with MiA S2 adapatation is the directing.. It really close 1:1 manga accuracy but not something like Grand Blue Powerpoint anime.. The voice acting of Misaki Kuno where she literally shaking after every voicing for Iru and Faputa well, that just show how much she get into the character.. I mean just listen the contrast of Faputa happy voice and rage voice.. I crying by her voice alone.

Shame that it's much less popular than other titles, but its okay, sometimes masterpiece dont really need a huge audiences..

Still concerned about authot massive lolicon tho

It's one of the higher rated anime of this season for me, but I haven't really liked or fully enjoyed a show from this season either. So it's kind of a bizarre situation overall for me. Reminds me of the Winter 2022 season where My Dress Up Darling was one of my higher rated anime of that season, but that season was such a bummer overall and I didn't really love a show from that season after following up with most of it.

I know this is all opinion based/subjective/whatever, but reading that made my eye twitch. This season of Made in Abyss was the most unique adventure anime experience I’ve seen in a while with so many interwoven complex themes, gorgeous art and character design, and an extremely gripping premise… and you think fanservice-laden shallow slice of life anime about a pedo vampire literally grooming a 14 year old who’s very obviously a projection/self-insert for the audience outclasses it? Catchy music and pretty backgrounds could not help me from that mess, but ok. Fair enough.

It isn't obvious? MiA has 8.80 and Overlord 8.33 so it's a difference more than 0.5.
Probably best of the year. Probably. I'd really like to MiA win AoTY. But there are still animes left.

To me it's easily the best this season and probably around the top 10 for this year

COTE was also good but it doesn't quite give me that COTE vibe unlike the first season

Then there's Lycoris Recoil, Call Of The Night, and Rent-A-Girlfriend which are all good in their own respect but still, atleast for me it's MIA

It’s really close with Overlord and Call of the Night for me. All 3 of those are 9’s for me. If I had to rank them, I would probably say Call of the Night, Made in Abyss, and Overlord, but man there isn’t a lot separating the 3.

Bruh MiA literally got child nudity, rape, children shitting and a bunch of other fucked Up stuff. Idk if saying call of the night is bad because pedophilia is a valid argument in this case.
