Idk how I feel about this. If Riko really not going to get back to the surface, then Nat and others will basically be tossed away from the story. The only way to make them relevant is by sending messages/items back and forth. But if Riko comes back to surface occasionally, then the story wouldn't be as exciting as it seems right now.

A much slower episode than the first two. Not bad, by any means, but not much happens.

The map of the Abyss was really, really cool. The art of this show is incredible, and one of the best I've seen.

Looking forward to the next episode. We finally get to see Riko and Regu explore the Abyss!

Their departure was so sad...
Would be much better if they went together, it wouldn't be so sad.

Aaww, Nat is feeling bit emotional whenever he remember about Riko and Reg are going to the Abyss. But damn, Nat's word about Riko's mother that probably dead after 10 years feels kinda overboard.

If I start to cry at the 3rd episode, what that will bet at the 13th.

So Riko thinks that Lyza's letter message is met for her. I'm not surprised that an argument broke out considering how dangerous a trip down to the Abyss can be.

Good amount of storytelling about the world fiction this episode too.

For an fantasy adventure, I think this show does a neat job at getting viewers to understand its world.


Nice spoiler, thank you, you just ruined the series for me smh

I was expecting this episode to show them already inside the Abyss, but I gotta say I liked the pacing used here, it sure did deliver with that ending.

They seem abnormally blind/nonchalant to the circumstances, or is it normal in the setting?
Riko acting like departing is not much different to departing for America from Japan or something, when it seems like it's closer to departing for Mars etc

Riko really wants to go into the Abyss. She's headstrong and impulsive, she does stuff even when she knows the consequences and dangers involved (the stealing of the star compass and the possibility of punishment).
There is no issue with Reg going in though, he can go in and out without any problem and he is unaffected by the Abyss curse. That blast he shot in the beginning should very well indicate that he is well prepared for the abyss combat wise as well.

Here's a question for you. When Riko first discovered Reg, he was unconscious. Let's assume he was awake when he fired the blast that saved her. Following that train of thought something incapacitated him shortly after he fired it. Before they managed to revive him with all of the town's electricity, nothing she or or her friends tried put so much as a scratch on him and he appeared to be totally unharmed when she first found him so we know he's more or less unbreakable.

So then, what exactly knocked him out to the point it took a massive electric jolt to revive him?

He ran out of battery? That blast must have taken a lot out of him, and if he came from the bottom of a 20,000 meter deep hole, climbing that has to be tiring.

Great and sad episode.

The structure about Abyss was informative. And by the looks of it, it indeed seems impossible to make it to the surface. I hope Riko isn't optimistic about finding her mother alive. It's best to prepare for worst.

I think Nat liked Riko... he should've confessed if that was the case. Who knows if Riko and Reg can actually and miraculously make it to the surface :(

The farewell was damn sad. I just wish we can see all these kids together again...

Because

And no, the elctirc jolt didn't revive him. He was already waking up

Well, we will miss them. Though I doubt Leader would agree since Riko and Reg's goal is to venture pass layer 6 (the curse of the abyss being the loss of humanity and possibly death), and have no intention of returning to the surface even again (since returning from the depth of the Abyss will lead to Riko killed by the curse instead.) Won't it be a bit cruel to ask the kids and Leader to join them in their suicidal dive?

Asking all the kids (red whistle) venture further below the 1st layer even with veterans like Leader (moon whistle) tagging along is still going to be a suicidal trip. Any red whistle that descend down layer 2 is treated as suicide since even the pursuers might get killed if they continued the pursue. And I bet even with Reg's aid it's still impossible to reach the depth with no casualties.

Eww! that snot of Riko attached to Reg is really revolting! LOLZ!!
That's very informative Sigy.
Kiwi (Kiyui has a cute name) and he's cute also!
So currently the Abyss explorers heave reached The sixth layer "The Capital of the Unreturned" and beyont that, to those who have reached seventh layer would never be able to go back to the surface because of the Curse of Abyss!
The map only tells 20,000 meters so that means there are someone who explored beyond seventh layer and was able to come back!?!?
Looks like there is no stopping for Riko & Reg! as they depart! lol at Nat crying because he'll miss Riko.
