Gotta go beyond Ozen, Lyza and Bondrewd if she wants to see the bottom. One lost arm is nothing. Riko is sigma.

[@idofx8722]

She was in a heightened survival state meaning her body was likely full of adrenaline. This along with the way the curse of the abyss interacts with the body would likely confound her since of pain. It should also be said that losing blood on it’s own isn’t particularly painful, it’s usually an injury that preceded it that causes pain. The cleaving of the arm was probably out of a sense of desperation, but she did in fact, feel that agonizing pain. It’s the impalement that would have gradually made her cry out, had her arm not been snapped once the adrenaline had worn off.

[@caelcdye9575]

@@Pemalstula not necessarily in this anime specifically its not like these people are being pit against each other by some evil entity for their amusement. The only enemy is the environment and what lives in it and having as many useful people possible on your side would help your survival chances the most in this environment. So if you were Reg or Riko sacrificing either one would be really dumb since they both bring useful skills to the table that are needed in the abyss. As dumb and naïve as Riko is sometimes she often comes up with good plans and has a lot of practical knowledge for the abyss. Reg is obviously a combat powerhouse. Both are needed in the abyss as we have seen before neither on its own is enough to overcome the abyss. Sacrificing either of them should only be done if absolutely necessary to save themselves from a purely pragmatic point of view.

My thoughts on how to survive the Abyss. 1. Don't go into the Abyss. 2. If you do go into the Abyss, don't go into the deeper layers. 3. If you do go into the deeper layers, don't go alone or with a small/inexperienced group. 4. If you do go alone or with a small/inexperienced group, travel slowly and carefully to build enough familiarity and skills that you're unlikely to die from normal events within each layer. 5. If you've somehow survived while ignoring rule 1-4, you've got some miraculous luck and/or are a little anime girl with a powerful robot boy.

[@idofx8722]

As cebola pointed out and Bondrewd at least in the manga clearly states, the time of a mass-death-event was creeping ever closer. Bondrewd was trying to find a solution, but continued to fail. He was debating going deeper to find a solution, however the layers beyond the 6th are quite mysterious as there are no records describing what lies within them, or how many more layers there even are. Returning is not a guarantee as presumably instant death awaits those who try to ascend. He is capable of observing the world through Nanachi’s eyes, so using the children as a scouting party is a vile yet efficient way to scout out the lower depths of the abyss.

[@melodybaoin1425]

A correction on that red note (10:12). That red note was not from her Mom. That was written by her senior ( that white haired teen-ager a while back). He actually knows that Riku and Reg are going to the abyss alone, so he tucked that note in those letters. Since he can't convince them to stay put, he will just let them be. Then he will come after them. This puts Riku in a panic so she and Reg immediately ran off.

[@MrSkullVA]

yes, exactly. Their senior was really close with her mother. That's why he helped them and gave them time, but he was ready to help if needed.

I think I got it. The ancient peoples probably figured out how to transplant their souls into automatons like how we see with Reg. By being a machine with a soul, you can absolutely traverse the Abyss. Reg is a member of this ancient tribe. Also, I think Riko's mom's physical body is gone, but her soul travelled to the bottom of the abyss, where she has inherited a new, Reg-esque body.

[@pralayaryan]

then why no one from the ancient tribe had ever ascended from the abyss, if ur theory is true then there should be a lot of ancient tribe members traveling to the outer layers .

[@Ytremz]

@@pralayaryan Two answers. Firstly, time dilation is massive down there, it is very possible that Reg is the first automaton to rise up from the 8th abyssal layer. But I think, more aptly, is the question of 'why'. Why would they want to leave their homes, especially if they consider it a kind of promised land? Most tribal communities are very insular and uninterested in the outside world. They would need a very good reason to leave. Perhaps Reg is connected to that reason.

"This also work for all Shounen genre" Great, really useful since this is absolutely not a shonen and that screaming loudly in the deeper layers attract Eldritch Horrors that have sacrificed their sense of view (since it's dark, duh) for hearing. They also have Reality-bending powers such as seeing the future. You're fighting against deities bro

[@emirikyuu7308]

1. the red note was written by the white haired guy at the start and not the mom, and they thought he was saying he wouldn't try to convince them to stop but would come after them as a kind of test to see if they were good enough to survive which is why they panicked and tried to descend quicker. 2. Finding her mom is ultimately an excuse that Riko uses to explore and see what's in the abyss, as she was born there and is therefore very drawn to it. This is also why she feels the need to continue descending even when Reg is passed out and told her to stay put. What's intresting is that's why the show is called what it is cus Riko is literally "Made in Abyss" lol 3. The orb piercer can practically read their thoughts and predict the future so trying to trick it by sacrificing riko wouldn't work 4. Going all the way down to the 5th layer (while Bondrewd is there aswell) just to find the artifact thingys and then descending all the way back up just to fight Ozen (and most definitely die because of the curse) isn't a very good idea.. sry i just love this show a lot and its cool seeing my favorite anime talked about :)

[@paulvonhooveriii9943]

1 yep 2 yep 3 mostly true but it can’t fully read or know what someone does, orby uses is the abyss itself (I forget what it was called the stuff if the air) which is why nanachi could tell reg what to do and how he was able to reach the nose of the orb peircer 4 yep (Edit) you are somewhat right tho aswell dangling riko off the goblet and hoping for orby to charge dodging and punishing would not work due to it being able to predict the movements of its opponents and yeah using riko as bait would not work 5 (my own) reg disobeyed nanachi and she decided to assist him in saving the black whistle

[@paulvonhooveriii9943]

@truthseeker Your partially right but not fully if it could perfectly see the future reg would not have been able to grab his nose because he would have seen his jump right in advance.

The curse repelling vessel doesn't actually repel the curse. Someone would put a half alive animal in it, then carry it up, and the animal would still be alive at the top of the climb so they just assumed it prevented the curse from killing the occupant. Nope, the occupant does and the box revives them, and as long as you keep climbing the thing will keep dying and reviving.

[@caelcdye9575]

I feel like you should have had more to say about the third layer escape scene like it was pretty dumb to drag reg through the caves when it didn't look like anything was chasing her immediately. All the carnivores they had seen so far were quite large and the tunnels there were quite narrow they could have just waited until reg regained consciousness to go exploring since riko is kinda useless combat wise on her own. Secondly since the laser beam causes him to go unconscious after he uses it maybe it would have been a smart idea to train earlier to find another way to kill large beasts in combat without it since going unconscious leaves riko very vulnerable since she has no combat capabilities herself. They also had another weapon they could have just used the pickaxe instead of the incinerator to kill the monster in the third layer first so reg would be awake to defend her later. Also it is shown later on since reg will go unconscious no matter what after using his incinerator he might as well just use it multiple times since he can use more then one before he goes unconscious to defeat the splitjaw. Edit: while I am it sacrificing riko to the orb thing would be a dumb idea. There would be no reason to do it in that moment considering their lives were not in danger and on his own Reg is capable of escaping and surviving an orb piercer as we saw before. Riko as useless as she is in combat and naive as she is is still useful because of her wealth of knowledge as we have seen before. She may pull it out at inopportune times as we have seen before, but she had been helpful in the past with the advice and would probably continue to be helpful. In addition if you need to sacrifice someone later on having a third party member to sacrifice later is always useful in such a dangerous place. No need to throw away resources willy nilly in such a deadly place. This deep in the abyss not many people come here and the likelihood of gaining new members to the expedition is slim and the chances will only get slimmer. As long as each member adds something throwing away a team member as a sacrifice should be a last resort since you are likely going to have to make do without their skills for the rest of the trip if you sacrifice them. Also her mother would probably not be pleased to learn her daughter was sacrificed if/when they find her. Lastly if Riko's mother was/is such a badass what prevents riko from becoming the same she obviously has the genetics for it she just needs to do some training so maybe they should stop for a while and do a training montage to atleast make her able to fend for herself.

[@Josuh]

Yeah, in the manga the fight is very different, instead of encountering the Madokajack at 26:48, it's the same Crimson Splitjaw from later in its place, so the fight happens earlier and Reg is fully awake, they defeat it by Riko first throwing Sun Sphere to distract it and then Reg beating the living shit out of it into the abyss lol, they didn't even use the pickaxe Although the anime did expand on the world building by having Reg fire the incinerator, falling unconscious and Riko exploring more of the 3rd layer, which didn't get much exposition in the manga, so that's very nice 👌

I fell in love with the story and animation to the point where I could not even feel anything about kids getting stuffed in cases. This must be the longing that those cave raiders feel. Like moths to a fire, you just can't get enough of the Abyss, with all its wonders & mysteries.

[@vomothytigan1640]

For some reason this dude's scientific approach to the Abyss and its curse (and everything associated with it) reminds me of Bondrewd. ... not the most pleasant of reminders.

[@fadelsukoco3092]

Not to mention that Bondrewd is likely the only one who has the resources, skill and technology to do all of the science-heavy solutions proposed in the video, and more importantly, the only one who would likely be willing to do so, considering that developing new ways to overcome the Abyss would fit right into his schedule of becoming a fluffy curse-immune transhuman monster via copious amounts of child sacrifice. Plus, if it benefits him enough, he would be willing to sacrifice his life to help, considering that he has an artifact that IIRC allows his soul to take control of the bodies of anyone who puts on his helmet, even if it's damaged to an extent, and has an army of mutant clones to help keep the work going.

[@Pemalstula]

Loved this video and the amazing world building of the story, never seen a place so magnificent in beauty but terrifying in nature.

[@ToozdaysChild]

"If I was Riko, I'd focus less of my time on climbing and more time on studying the myths and legends and history associated with the Curse of the Abyss." Bruh, Riko eats, sleeps and BREATHES Abyss lore. She knows the list of major artifacts by heart, she knows all the ways the Curse can affect you on every layer up the 6th (and nobody can return from any lower than the 5th), and she knows most of the currently discovered fauna and how to exploit/counter/avoid them. The only reason she doesn't know more is because there literally isn't any more she can learn; any further information is either restricted from Red Whistles, or outright hasn't been discovered yet. Literally the only way she can progress now is through training and practical application: ie, going into the Abyss. As for knowledge of the Curse, nobody has ANY clue why it exists or how any of it works, except perhaps the White Whistles. The viewer only recieves an explaination on how it functions after they meet a character who can literally SEE the Curse.

Hello. I just want to bring up that Riko technically did a "thorough" inspection of Reg on her own back when he was still unconscious. If I can remember it correctly, Riko tested multiple things on him, including attempting to drill through his hands and skin, checking his genitals, and even sticking a measuring stick up his rectum, which promptly broke while inside him. She did manage to get the snapped portion back out of him though. So while it wasn't any tests of his abilities or his incinerator, she still did an inspection and reported back her findings to the other children in the orphanage. EDIT: Went back and rewatched the scene and here's Riko's report on Reg (before she got cut off by another child at the orphanage who got uncomfortable with how thorough her inspection was). "Besides that, his arm can extend about 40 meters. His metal parts are made of some mysterious flexible material, which I couldn't pierce even with a drill. He also has a belly button, but I couldn't really see inside his butthole. I tried to probe him with a measuring stick, but it broke while inside him... Also, his penis doesn't appear to be mechanical but more like a real one..."

[@BloodrealmX]

It's amazing how professional and analytical Riko is. So much so that the nigh-indestructible amnesiac living robot is actually the audience voice of normalcy. I feel like Bondrewd probably used to be a lot like her before Zoaholic fried his mind down to its most core aspects.

Is our technology actually available in the Made in Abyss world? It always looked more like an 18th or 19th century world, with some exceptions and a lot of steampunk elements. So a lot of the purposed techniques to beat the world wouldn't actually work.

[@megugu2155]

i think deep in the abyss theres advanced technology that can beat the tech from the surface. Reg is the most advanced tech they have there so its not farfetched to say that our tech can exist in the MiA world.

[@jilliancrawford7577]

I hope you revisit this if/when the series concludes and Riko and Co. make it to the bottom of the Abyss! It feels like there's some information and details we haven't been told yet that can only exist at the bottom. I do love this breakdown though, I've tried showing this series to friends but their confusion with the curses and whatnot make it harder for them to get immersed or follow along, so I'm glad this can help break it down if I try showing them the series again! I can confidently say though that as someone with chronic health issues that I would probably become a less of organs like Mitty from just looking at the Abyss lol! Kudos to these small children for being healthy enough to have these aspirations!

Yes because treating a sentient robot as a lethal weapon rather than a sentient being ALWAYS works well

[@fadelsukoco3092]

Well, Reg specifically has his memories wiped and is essentially guilt-tripped into helping Riko, who was the person he interacted with for the first and longest time after he woke up, which definitely would have caused him to form some sort of dependency on her. Sure, he can survive on his own, but not knowing anything about his surroundings and being deprived of any social interaction after he's had a taste for it would certainly mess with him mentally.
