I was wondering if there was a anime similar to do this? Another reference is Danmachi s4. Is there other animes where the characters actually struggle in a dungeon. Seeing them overcome hardships has been peak for me.

Delicious in Dungeon has many similarities with Made in Abyss and the Dungeon is literally in the title

i dont think you will find an anime thats similar to made in abyss thats going to be even closely as good as it.

world building wise though the only ones that come to mind are attack on titan and land of the lustrous (manga). no dungeon action here but lots of struggling

astra lost in space( has different dangerous planets like the layers in abyss) and just one of the most perfect 12 ep shows.
delicious in dungeon. the perfect dungeon anime.
Madoka magica, Shinsekai Yori if you're looking for similair horror vibes.

Gunjou no Magmell is a poor rip-off of Made in Abyss.

Depends on which aspect of it you are looking for.
But personally think Shin Sekai Yori has a pretty similar vibe to it. Could be mistaken though.

Not entirely 1-1 similar, but Tengoku Daimakyou is the anime comes to my mind right now.

The recommendations on the anime page are normally based off of similarities, and scaled by how many recommended something based off of it.

In terms of how cruel the world is and the misteries revolving it, I recommend you to read Houseki no Kuni manga

It reminds me of The Promised Neverland.
The seemingly innocent suddenly turning into something disturbing and the main characters being kids. At the beginning the setting is very different, but it gets more similar later on.

It’s not a dungeon but I too find it somewhat similar to Girls last tour. Instead of going down , they’re going up.

If you want like a comedy version of Abyss, then you may enjoy Train to the end of the world.

Girl last tour, mainly how bleak the world is.
or Dungeon Meshi, fun but terrifying world to live in.

Shinsekai Yori I'd say is the closest I can think of

Dungeon meshi has a very different vibe from MIA. MIA felt much more intense and serious, both have incredible world building but way different imo.

For me, there is many side of Made in Abyss, but the most important aspect is its twisted darkness revealed the deeper you are in the anime.

shinsekai yori is the closest anime i can think of in term of that twisted darkness
