Made in Abyss: Awakening Mystery
HIDIVE, the anime subscription streaming service owned by AMC Global Media, Nov. 10 announced it would begin distributing feature film Made in Abyss: Awakening Mystery in 2027.
This marks the franchise’s first new movie in six years, following Season 2 “The Golden City of the Scorching Sun,” which aired in 2022. After debuting in Japan’s box office Top 10 on Oct. 23, “Awakening Mystery” will have its North American theatrical premiere Dec. 5 during Anime Frontier in Fort Worth, Texas.
The storyline follows Riko, Reg, Nanachi, and Faputa as they traverse the Abyss’s treacherous sixth layer, searching for Riko’s mother, Lyza, amid new and familiar faces.
The anime is based on Akihito Tsukushi’s 2012 dark fantasy manga, which currently has more than 22 million copies in print across 15 volumes.
HIDIVE, which has distributed the series since July 7, 2017, when Season 1 won “Anime of the Year,” will share more streaming details for the 2027 release at a later date.
