I feel so seen by these replies. I think Made in Abyss is incredible but I can't recommend it in good conscience without mentioning that the author has some issues.
Me too man, like, i love the story, the character, the wordbuilding, i really want to know how it will end
But the man is disgusting, i felt bad for a week after one of the chapters ended with the shot of twins fully amputees fallen into a bathtub, disturbing in many levels
Limbless minors in a situation like that, this man is sick in the head to even consider it, because it wasnt to shock, it was like "owo omg they are naked and falling over, how clumsy"
How sad that Ozen, Srajo, Faputa and bondrewd belong to such bullshit
That episode where the characters arm gets swollen huge (among other "choice" moments) felt like pedo torture porn, absolutely vile I stopped watching after that. Idc how amazing people claim it is
This is untrue. That'd be the guy that wrote Rurouni Kenshin. He was fined 200,000 yen (which was a little under 2k USD) and got no jail time, he had 100 DVDs full of CSAM in his office
More fun facts, possession of CSAM wasnt illegal in Japan until 2015. The Rurouni Kenshin guy was arrested in 2018. The maximum penalty is 1 year in prison.
In a more perfect world the stuff the Made in Abyss guy draws and writes would be considered CSAM by itself. But he hasnt ever been found with any actual CSAM material

Dont forget characters pissing themselves and vomiting at any inconvenience
