| Phew... what a ride. Amazing experience but I missed the adventuring part of it. The villagers were amazing, such wonderful characters too. Glad that Nanachi is still with us (and she looks awesome), but still no answers to where Reg comes from. I will miss Maaaaaaaa, what a fab public speaker. Go well Sosu, thanks for taking me with on this adventure. |
| May the Uguu be with you. |
| SOSU/10 . Props to Kuno for nailing faputa, her voice acting sent chills down my spine especially in the final episode. Also RIP to veuko and Maaaaaaa (no Maaa why'd you have to go T_T ). Godly OST from kevin penkins the gigachad, coupled with stunning visuals and character, PLUS superb OP and ED. Truly contender for AOTY. |
on 
| that was pretty good episode sosu. 8/10 |
 |
| This arc was Magi-tier finale build. The world setup and the whole mother scenario of Irumyuui being the symbol of her wishes for generations was a beautiful metaphor. As everything must come to an end the journey they started is surely reaching the depth of the abyss. Vueko was at the center of all and her death was really sad. Wazunyan played his role of a saint till his limit. Majikaja and Maa were the two MVP's of this arc. Bruh literally got his wish to be a value for the princess. Not sure what happened to Maa but I can guess he became one with Faputa too. With every arc the story gets darker taking our sanity bit by bit. Im kinda sacred what the depths hold now. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |

Raicman said: I'm starting to think this story isn't about Riko. And more like Reg getting a Harem of babes and fuffly cuddle ones. Hmm sounds true. Reg with his fluffy Haku tribe. Nanachi being the fluffiest and mesmerizing smell too. |
| When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| Anime of the season and quite possibly of the year. Shit was beautiful and I personally liked it more than the first one due to how much information we got from one place and how little relevance Riko had during the show (I just dislike her a lot, so fleshing out other characters is a plus for me). Loved the arc, loved the ost. 9/10. Certified greatness, sosu. Now I´m sad we won´t see this thing animated for the next 7 years. |
| it was beautiful... |
 |
| Perfect adaptation minus Riko whiffing Faputas asshole. Cant believe they left that out smh... |
| Amazing! What a finale. They absolutely blew it out of the park! Vueko's final remaining loved one saving her life at cost of her own, Faputa learning Irumyuui kept Vueko to herself all this time, showing how valuable she really was to her. Faputa, from being introduced as this great threat with immense hatred and strength to truly being as she is, friendly and thoughtful. Prushka's feelings of Riko. Reg rekindling his bonds with Faputa. The brutality of the abyss. Faputa breaking away from her mother's expectations and finding her own destiny. Moogie and the others giving up the remainder of their life so Faputa can finish her duty. Maaa taking care of Riko until the very end... This was such a journey and I've said it before but I'm so glad this was animated finally. I love this franchise. It's so much. So well put together. Thank you everyone. |

| Damn they killed of my fav char Veoko but damn wish I was berried with her can't lie. But damn they have easily recruited the most OP character if she joins haha, their going to be the most formidable group and adventurers that might even be able to climb up and go down into history. But damn I had chills mate chills just pure perfection. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Made in Abyss has done it again, the story, the character developments, the scenery, the world, the music, the pacing, each characters reasoning. Perfect 10/10 |
 |
| I knew it was coming but i cried with Vueko, Maa and the village getting destroyed. I liked how Riko and Nanachi comment indirect that Reg is pretty much a furry, he got easily sold for another fluffy. I really would like they teased "mommy", but well... Now comes the long wait. Easy 10/10 i will miss this anime, very unique and i can't wait for the full ost release. |

| A great episode. Very well done. Happy to see the curse took out at least one person and came back, but sad to see we didn't end somehow with getting to the next layer of the abyss. Movie maybe? I cant imagine a whole season revolving around one layer. Regardless, good arc. Animation was great, the characters are well done, and im glad to see most people feel the same way. Still, cant please everyone and it's disappointing to see some reviewers who nitpick at small things in this incredible anime. All in all a solid 9.7/10. Would've been flawless 10 if we got to layer 7... but hopefully we dont need to wait too long. |
  |
| What an epic conclusion |
| Penkin is the GOAT, visuals were great as well. Although I wasn't a big fan of this arc, the adaptation made it really enjoyable. Kinda sad considering the fact the anime is almost up to date with manga (and the pace the manga is being released) we're not gonna get any more MIA anime is a few years, it got me pretty hyped. |

Halfway through this season just lost me. Lots of dying, lots of drama, lots of action, but whats the point? Where was Vuero even trying to go when she got hit with the curse? Wazazan predicted everything and just did it for the lulz? Nanachis entire involvement in this was because she inherited some others memories. Basically was absent the entire season outside of recycled melodrama. Riku has strong "chose one" vibes here, just gets the center of attention without any reason. Reg still doesnt remember anything at all, shame. Lots of focus on Faputa so either she joins or this all was wasted effort. Idk, just give me back the adventure part of this story and tone down the child torture melodrama. Maybe I can enjoy this more when I binge it in a rewatch.. would be a shame not to after the amazing first season and movie. 1. I get why one may think this arc was semi-pointless. it was easily the most stand alone arc. still had a lot of stuff like reg's past, more information on the history of abyss and the white whistle and stuff like that, but it was mostly the story of the village, not our characters. but I'm completely fine with that. the story of the village was more than strong enough to stand on it's own. 2. Wazukyan brought her down when things were getting crazy, and she was simply trying to get back to where she was. 3. up for interpretation or maybe revealed in the future. we don't even know if he can actually see the future, or not, at least not for sure. I would say it has to do with the abyss layer thing nanachi explained in season 1, but he had this "ability" even before getting to the abyss, so idk. If he did know the future, he probably didn't know a way to change it. I think he did all he could, there isn't really much else he could have done to help their situation. 4. that and her fully moving on from her loss. But why is that a problem? it's not every single character has to have the biggest role in every single season. It is true that she had very little to do with this arc, but like, why is that a problem? 5. the thing about riko is that she has chosen one vibes not because she is the main character, but because she acts like it. she just does things without a second thought, even though those things have huge impacts. in this very season she almost decided what limb to give away in like 1 minute. you see her making relationships with the villagers, and you are given a reason to why people notice her. this is how to properly put the MC in the center of attention. she isn't special because she's the mc, she is the mc because she's special. 6. if by adventure you mean the first like 9 episodes of season 1, I don't see the show getting back to that. the show has been changing with it's every arc, and I think that's a great thing. the bondrewd arc was completely different from everything before it, and this was the same. my guess is that the later parts will follow this same pattern and be completely different. 7. even if she doesn't join, I'm near certain she will be coming back, so no I seriously doubt this being all for nothing. 3+2 how about not dropping Vera further down when he kinda knows the village doesnt stop the curse anymore? As far as I could tell she only died because of the curse, she was fine before. 4 Because none of the main cast got developement, Reg only got some backstory. Which in itself would be fine if we had more of the trio actually adventuring instead of getting split for essentially the entire arc. 5 nah huge disagree, she is both. Sure she doesnt act like most kids yet all the villagers getting attached to them only because they are human children was weak, Nanachi got it as well with all the small ones swarming around her only because she napped next to them all season. 6 we saw a lot of different locations and learned a lot about the world, here we see 1 honestly not all that cool location and get 2 eps worth of abyss lore. Honestly there was too much action. |

Astute_Anime said: Season 2 - 7/10 Season 1 and the movie were so immersive as an adventure (9/10), with the exploration of various levels of the abyss and the encroaching darkness and dangers as the team descends deeper. Season 2 was all about the village where they stayed, made some friends, but we didn't learn much about the abyss itself beside the golden eggs, the piece of paper from "Mom," and a few other tidbits like new monsters etc. Season 2 left me wanting to know more about the abyss, it felt like a side-quest story in a video game & look forward to what happens in S3 when it comes out. And whatever happens to Maaa? One second she is there, the next she is gone. Was she off-screened? she was holding riko when they got out. but when riko wakes up, she just sees the doll being next to her. the implication was that maa went poof in those purple flames due to being outside the village. |

| I'm not quite sure on how I've felt about this finale to be honest. To be honest, I wasn't completely following all the metaphors regarding value already so this finale's impact was mostly lost on my eyes. That isn't to say that the music didn't resound on me at all, far from it actually. Same with how each of the villagers were returned to the abyss. It was a sad departure but a necessary one. Regarding the season itself, for the most of it I wasn't sure where it was headed towards since each main went their separate ways and the villagers had a way of speaking that wasn't very clear. Aside from the value I guess by the end I didn't quite get what the goal of the villagers was from their initial journey. Were they venturing just for the sake of adventure? What was the golden city exactly? I'll need to catch up on that later. Lastly, animation wise this was on par with the last movie, which is good due to the fluidity but not that great considering that I'm not that fan of gore and there sure was plenty of it. In fact, I do still cover my eyes from time to time bt the mental image stays, gross. All in all, better season than the first one on many levels, even if I didn't get as emotionally or plot invested as others. |

Honestly there was too much action. if it was shorter, it would have been rushed. there was way too much in this to put into 1 movie. maybe you don't like everything in it, but there is a lot in it. 3+2 he didn't want her to get back up. he brought her down to keep her safe from everything that was going on up there. the main reason she got hit was because: 1. she didn't know she was human 2. she had forgotten that she should worry about the curse 4. I recently made sure of it, faputa will join them. and this was her arc. so I argue that she is now a main character that got plenty of development. + this arc focused on fleshing out the village. it wasn't about our characters, it was the story of the village. like I said, I agree that this had very little to do with our cast and overall plot, I just don't think that's a bad thing. 5. fair enough 6. I don't think they need to move through location after location in only 1 season for this to be a good adventure. for me 1 location per season is more than enough. I also hard disagree on this not being cool. I thought location wise, this layer was by far and beyond the most interesting out of the 6 that we have been through. it was also the most visually unique. if anything most adventure shows are like this. |

Just like we love watching it. Also imma need Riko's hair to grow back fast cuz I'm not a fan of her short hair lol Off to another 5 years wait before season 3 comes out... |
