I actually feel as though despite his inhumane actions he is one of the most human characters in the series.

[@user-sz6wo3in7k]

@@urielgarcia6327 I disagree here, it is outright stated that the Zoaholic destroyed his humanity and mind, so your interpretation is far from intended, doesn't necessarily make it wrong though. But still, his actions and mindset alone don't click as human to me. He clearly admires the riko group, as well as all those children he killed, yet contradictorily, he did what he did. He still clearly does mean what he says though, he's just completely divorced from anything but his own goals, and while some people definitely are very much like that, to this degree is so far gone that I would never consider it a major part of what makes us human.

[@samanthot_]

@@jivasche3029 Srajo and Wakuna just sound like they're huge weirdos tbh. Though likely harmful weirdos. Lyza is probably called the Annihilator because of her destructive capabilities. Ozen was named the Inmovable Sovereign because she's like a wall. Bondrewed was named the Lord of the Dawn because his scientific discoveries are like the dawn of a new age in science. The Lord of Mystery will probably directly relate to the abyss (maybe they've discovered the most artifacts?), while the Lord of Guidance is likely responsible for building the elevators down into the abyss, or maybe the construction of the place where Ozen lives. But I don't think there's anything sinister going on with Lyza's name at all. I think her name just means she's really good at destroying things- maybe she's killed more abyss creatures than anyone else?

This song and Bondrewd in general are honestly really creepy. The man actually seems to genuinely love and care for his children. I honestly think the events with Prushka and the white whistle were expected. But apart from that, it's weird how humanly inhuman he is. He's sacrificed everything he can for his goals, if I remember his conversation with Nanachi correctly. He uses other people because he's no longer viable for his own experiments anymore. I don't think he comprehends the idea of pain anymore after all he's done. And he doesn't see what he does as horrific. He seems to think that everyone's as happy as he is to be contributing to science.

[@megugu2155]

Bondrewd is the embodiment of what being a White Whistle means. Black Whistle are peak experience and knowledge when it comes to dwelling into the Abyss, the greatest explorers a human can ever dream to be. White Whistles are people who wanted to achieve more, so they transcended their human condition. And by doing so, they discarded part of that humanity, for humans were not meant to do what they do. They are not mad. They are not soulless. They are not humans, they are both above and below that. They watched the Abyss and decided they'd rather be a part of it than mankind.

[@idofx8722]

For those that have yet to fully grasp the amazing villain that Bondrewd from Made in Abyss is: Bondrewd is a “being” (he isn’t physically classified as human presently due to certain reasons) who possesses absolutely no ill intent. Bondrewd has been shown to understand if not possess a limited amount of emotion, but his moral compass is completely governed by logic rather than morality. In spite of his terrible actions he is rather charismatic, and is excellent at interacting with people. The result is a polarizing individual who either makes people despise or adore him. His goal is to find a way for mankind to be able to freely traverse the lower levels of the Abyss without the fear of dying or losing one’s sense of self. Because he is incredibly knowledgeable about the Abyss, and his experiments do in fact yield results, his presence has been tolerated. The fact that he remains in the 5th layer is also why people allow him to continue with his questionable methods, because few traverse to such depths anyway making his activities largely unknown. Those who do know usually hate him, but turn a blind eye given that he is effectively unkillable as a result of the massive amount of artifacts, followers, and knowledge Bondrewd possesses.

[@MrCmon113]

>who possesses absolutely no ill intent Would you like to suffer as an amorphous monster in a dark pit for years, if not decades? Because that was his intent for hundreds of children. >his moral compass is completely governed by logic rather than morality That's completely meaningless and just shows that you have no clue what "logic" means. >In spite of his terrible actions he is rather charismatic Why "in spite of"? Being terrible doesn't hinder you from being charismatic at all. And yes, him being soft spoken - not even charismatic, just literally even tempered, is the only reason you come up with a bunch of dumbass excuses. He never justifies himself. You feel the need to. >his questionable methods If that's "questionable" to you, maybe you're the one, who isn't "governed by morality" at all.

[@idofx8722]

@@MrCmon113 His goal (intention) was not to bring suffering to said children, that was simply an outcome he deemed acceptable through this neat thing we call LOGIC. Logic has many various definitions and uses, in this particular case, we can use this one- *the quality of being justifiable by reason*. He had his reason. Did it make it morally acceptable? OF COURSE NOT! But through pure logical analysis, he came to the conclusion that their suffering was acceptable because they were orphan children, cast out and unwanted by society and in this way they could be helpful and contribute something. A fucked up sense of reasoning? Absolutely. But these methods resulted in him making some breakthrough’s, albeit so few it isn’t even anywhere near morally justifiable. Lastly the questionable methods I was referring to, was using the very bounty hunters and hitmen sent to remove him from the picture, as his personal research and observation teams. He states in the beginning that all of the orphans would be able to help make important discoveries within the abyss, and that was in fact, a terrible truth.

[@EQuinn-cr9oc]

From what I could ascertain, the song’s vocals aren’t a conlang per se, but do appear to be a jumble of words from various languages, primarily Spanish, French, and Japanese. Reading between the lines a bit with what I could translate and taking a touch of poetic liberty, this is what I made sense of regarding anything like a translation of the lyrics: “In the holy sea, At the heart of it all: The end of everything, An end without struggle. The sky, the sky It sings The song of the brightest soul. The sky, the sky, Now void of color, The sum of all you strove for . . . I am going to die here! So cruel, the sky, It burns with such heat! There is a pit which beckons his steps . . . The sky, the sky . . . It won’t save you Or all you have achieved. At the heart of all you value, In the midst of death, I am with you! In his victory, he has died. Without you, her soul will sing. The tower, the tower! My heart! In the dark, we have each other. Escape with your life!” As others who have tried to make sense of it quite well have surmised, it appears to be the souls of the cartridges singing to each other about Bondrewd and the Abyss in a multitude of languages, and longing to see the sky again but knowing neither they nor Bondrewd ever will again. Thus, they curse him in their grief and warn Reg and the others to flee while they can.

His goals are understandable, even laudable, but the methods he uses to achieve them are unthinkable, yet, he never quite looses his humanity, there's a glimpse of it in everything he does, of human ambition and human kindness, and he never thinks himself above the process, willing to sacrifice whatever it takes from himself or others to further his goals.

He is unsettlingly immoral because he is literally a plant hivemind loosely carrying out his postmortem will. Honestly, its entirely possible the original Bondrewd never intended for any of this to happen. He could have been an affable family man who genuinely sacrificed himself for an immortal body to carry out the greater good. Either way, I wouldn't consider him to be evil in the slightest.

No other person has ever had anything approaching his level of brilliance, and no one else has ever had the strength of will necessary to make the terrible sacrifices and commit the nightmarish atrocities needed. He has accomplished more to further understanding of the Abyss than the combined efforts of all of humanity prior to his birth. For good or ill, that is an undeniable truth.

@@gorgoneuryale8748 He made a tool that allows people to go up a level without being impacted by the curse in any way, something that normally requires incredibly rare and difficult to find artifacts. Yes, it's horrible and utterly unethical, but it is also highly effective and something literally no one else has managed. s for the guys who made Reg, if they're so great, why are they stuck at the bottom of the Abyss? Are they still even there? Maybe they're stuck at the bottom because they do stuff worse, like, say, hollowing out a child, filling them with mechanical parts, and turning them into a robot for their own amusement. Or maybe they make juvenile sex robots. That would explain why Reg is fully anatomically correct. What I'm saying is, it's fully possible, and *likely* given the universe this takes place in, that the people who made Reg ar ten trillion times *worse.*

@@gorgoneuryale8748 Or "Were" technologically superior. There's always the possibility that they died out long ago. That's the thing about machines like Reg: They're fully capable of outliving their creators. And there's no guarantee that the people who sent him out on his mission were the ones who originally built Reg. They could be just like the people on the top levels of the Abyss, using artifacts that they cannot build or duplicate, or perhaps even only barely understand. Heck, Reg could have been sent to the surface by an expedition that went to the very bottom, learned that there was nothing there, and sent Reg up to the surface to warn others not to come down anymore, because there's nothing at the bottom worth looking for anymore... or that whatever is at the bottom is way too dangerous for anyone to try and take it.

[@FirstLast-cg2nk]

@@gorgoneuryale8748 You're also making an assumption, in that whatever is at the bottom of the Abyss, whatever built Reg is human. There's a far greater possibility that the ones who made Reg are anything but. Until proven other, the residents of the bottom of the Abyss could be literally anything, with human being the genuinely least likely.

Lyza did it for Rikos good i suppose. From the stories ozen and the people of the town told Riko. Lyza was clearly mentally unstable and probably having violent Ptsd. Probably after losing her husband and seeing all the sick shit that the other white whistles did.

[@younggod5230]

@@cyruslupercal9493 I thought there's a line by him that implies that pain is necessary. I might misremember. But even in that case, it wouldn't make bondrewd "unnecessarily" evil. Since, IF the pain is necessary, well, it wouldn't be unnecessarily cruel. I also don't think bondrewd would be unnecessarily cruel, but I don't think he really thinks about cruelty at all. Again, if I remember correctly, he ordered his posse to seize reg and perform weird surgeries on him. He didn't get any sedatives. He doesn't really consider ethics I think. Though to be fair, for some reason a lot of people just disregard regs, like, rightd and dignity.
