Both are stories filled with the philosophy of life, death, and the meaning of existence. They do this both by the character's outlook on their hopeless situation, and the subtle hope gain from the company of another. Both are about a pair of kids traveling down a path which is certain to end, and the significance of that journey. Note: the horizon is much more graphic and perhaps more tragic than girls last tour, so only a good rec if you enjoy tragedies and contemplating the human condition in the wake of restless sleep.

I recommend these two like a nice wine and cheese paring. The two shows mirror many themes while evoking completely different emotions. As such, they compliment each other well. To start, we have Made in Abyss; which starts out as a hopeful tale of would be adventures and wonder. Only when we descend into the deceivingly vibrant pit does the gnawing feeling despair and hopelessness start to set in; our two protagonists in a world which could care less about their survival. The Abyss inflicting danger and peril around every corner, only increasing as they delve further into the depths, with the small hope that they will beat the odds. So after you have finished Made in Abyse and collected a good amount of stress and anxiety, it's time to convert all in into subtle bittersweet depression. Enter, Girl's Last Tour. Likewise, we have two unlikely protagonists in a hostile environment, albeit one much less cheery. We watch these two live a hand to mouth existence in this oppressively bleak and barren wasteland. But despite the hardships they face, the pair exude this general feel-good-ness which makes you hope that they will survive and carry on despite the odds. That hope secretly increasing as they climb each layer of the city in pursuit of whatever may lie at the top, while fully aware of the dangers and difficulties they may face. A journey downward, filled with hope, riddled with despair and pain. Can they make it? A journey upward, bleak and hopeless, yet daring to hope and carry on. Can they make it?
