Exploring the Abyss
The Made in Abyss saga began in 2012 with Akihito Tsukushi's manga, serialized on Web Comic Gamma. The story centers around Riko, a young orphan from the town of Orth, which borders a colossal vertical chasm called the Abyss. This mysterious hole in the earth is filled with ancient technology, bizarre creatures, and untold secrets that have claimed many lives.
Driven by her dream to emulate her mother, Lyza, a renowned White Whistle Cave Raider who vanished in the Abyss, Riko embarks on a perilous journey into its depths. Along her way, she encounters Reg, a half-robot boy with amnesia, and together they delve deeper into the Abyss, fully aware of the risks they face.
The manga's popularity led to its adaptation into an anime in 2017, followed by a sequel film, **Dawn of the Deep Soul**, released in Japan in 2020. Additionally, in 2022, Chime Corporation released a console and PC RPG titled **Made in Abyss: Binary Star Falling into Darkness**, further expanding the universe.
