Why Made in Abyss is So Special
Made in Abysshas been one of the darkest anime franchises that fans have gotten to see in the 2010s, and it’s something that fans really have enjoyed since that initial premiere. The TV series has been such a hit that it’s continued with multiple feature film releases and more, and now it’s coming back with an entire film trilogy keeping the story moving forward. It’s because it’s not only dark, but there’s a cool fantasy world that fans are seeing evolve with each new entry that fans want to see explored further.
Made in Abyss really struck fans with the titular Abyss that offers a deep new world of monsters and dangers that fans want to see more of. At the same time, it’s all very young characters that feel like they are in even more danger thanks to the fact that children are stuck in these terrible predicaments. But with this new film, it’s the perfect time to catch up with it all now streaming with platforms like HIDIVE.
