How tf has nobody said Made in Abyss yet?

This shit has downright freaky abstractions who wanna use magic soul currency to trade you for body parts to get their desires satisfied!

Happy Sugar Life. The name did not resemble the anime at all.

If anyone’s curious what the one from OP’s picture is it’s called Angel’s Egg. Seen it a few times now, very slow, dark and quiet. I love it.

I love it too. I don’t understand the whole story but it’s nice to just appreciate the animation.

There is no egg. Pretty sure Studio Deen also has no idea what it’s about either.

Though personally, just like the egg Princess Filianore held at the end of the world in the ringed city, it shows the power faith, even blind faith, holds over the world.

I feel like I didn’t understand almost any of it as a teenager, more as an adult, and then a LOT more when I watched it with someone who had familiarity with Christianity?? It has some weird religious mythos to it that I didn’t know at all so that was really cool to have my eyes opened to that. But I think it’s also pretty open ended so it can mean different things to people.
