Nanachi's loyalty is admirable.

I love the chemistry this episode and Mitty is easily becoming among one of my favorites in this season with her personality and overall character. I also think this episode did a decent job at its world fiction elements.

The difficult decision Riko had to make was also quite tense.

Episode picks up right from where it ended last week.
Thanks god Kaja was there, otherwise Riko would have made a very dumb choice regarding the Nanachi situation.

That thing came out of nowhere for real, but we now know what all this luring was about. Honestly, I thought they would be more prepared for the creature. Having to summon Juroimoh of The Three Sages and yet still lose… if it wasn’t for Riko and Reg, all the villagers would have been eaten.

Glad we got to see Prushka again!

Man, Belaf making Riko consider that offer was some bullshit. Good thing Kaja stopped her. I really don’t like that discount Onyx looking sonofabitch.

But setting that aside, did the big jeweler guy say he jizzed himself when carving Prushka. Bruh… I don’t know if I like the idea of his cum stained mitts touching my girl Prushka lol. Well, can’t stay too mad. The fella got his face eaten off by that slime monster. If this is what a hunt looks like Riko and the others need to gtfo of the village pronto.

Juroimoh vs the big slime jellyfish was like watching two kaijus fight. That battle lasted a lot shorter than I thought though, considering the guy was a Sage. Riko analyzing the jellyfish slime monster sure saved everyone’s ass. Just cost a bit of hair for her plan to work. That plan with the mirror was clever, and it seems Riko’s picked up the language pretty quickly. Smart kid.

I wasn’t expecting to see Prushka! Man, I miss her. She was such a pure soul. Motherfucking Bondrewd… ugh. Well anyways, her call drew Reg back! Just when he was gonna kick that thing’s ass…it already died lol.

It seems to get Nanachi, they need Faputa. But I got a lot of questions after that end bit there. Vueko said Faputa is the embodiment of value, what everyone wants to be but fears. What’s that about? Is Vueko saying Reg is from the Golden City? Why is Wazukyan so scared? Who is Irumyuui? Hopefully next week’s ep can answer these questions.

The villagers want to get some action sometimes. YOLO
A thing that you be funny, is if Maa had a thumb to give a thumbs up, while lying wasted on the ground.

Now Riko is a White Whistle.

- The pace was faster than in previous episodes, maybe because there was more action, and more time needed to be invested in animating it. Not a problem, but surprised me.
- At first, I thought Wazukyan being fearsome was inconsistent with him having been the leader of a suicide mission, but now that he is settled in Ilblu he has something to lose.
- I cannot understand Vueko yet. In this episode, she seemed aloof to the troubles, observing but not sympathising, which I expected her to do. Maybe she does not belief in the purpose of the village; or maybe she does not know most villagers, and does not feel for them.

Blow the whistle, whistleblower!

"Reg, leg!"

*dog appears out of nowhere and runs to his owner*

"Riko, orders!?"

"Get it, Reg!"

"Woof woof"

The prushka scene was cooler in the manga tbh

God dammit, this thing came from upgrading Riko's whistle.

Well, overall, this was probably my favorite episode of the season, so far. I like how Riko has managed to, more or less, fit into the village. Also, I know it was the point, in the beginning, so as to make things more unsettling, but I'm glad that we are starting to get some subtitles from the other villagers.

The battle with the Queen's Nest was pretty neat, I feel like it's been awhile since we've had some action, so it was rather refreshing. Plus, it's always nice to see why Riko is our main character. Her experience is really shining through now.

I'm hyped for the back-half of the season. And, for all the grief she got, Riko is rockin' that short hair.

"...Is your mother worried? Would you like us to assign someone to worry your mother?"

A lot of action this episode. As usual penkin masterclass during all the hype moments. Really cool to see riko use her white whistle’s power for the first time. Reg’s powered up form is dope.

Looks like we’re finally getting Vueko and Ganja’s full story next week which is what I’ve been looking forward to for a while. I’m already prepared to be heartbroken.

Is it just me or has the quality of this show dropped a lot? *(aside from the CGI)* Usually the anime has been better than the manga but this season for me it's been the other way around by a landslide. The placing of events was also done very improperly imo, almost as if they were trying to rush this season. Quite a shame since it takes so long just to get enough material to adapt.

So far they haven't cut anything major, but I'm disappointed by prushka scene this ep, and by nametag scene a couple of eps ago. I'm also not happy about how ost is used, it doesn't fit.

The animation is ok and smooth, but not movie quality breathtaking. The voice acting is great.

Riko got her time to shine, though at the cost of her hair. We got Kaja in badass mode and another glimpse of Prushka and best dad, which were welcomed.

Next episode is gonna be quite some something. Probably the most fucked off part of Made in Abyss for me.

I like how it is ordinary when a huge jelly monster appears and slaughters everyone.
I can't remember Prushka too much, I know she appeared in the movie. Is she in the whistle now, and the whistle empowers Reg? He was all white and stuff.

More stuff about value and a start to the tale of the exploration squad remaining history. Next week hopefully the rest of the Irumyuui story and what happened between then and now. It was fun to see Riko so creative with how she took down the enemy. Reg's different gear coloring stood out too. Looking forward to next week.

Thank heavens that Kaja was there to stop Riko from seriously considering what part of her to sacrifice in her desperate attempt to rescue Nanachi and Mitty. After that, she got Pruschka back again after it got tinkered with (The guy seriously climaxed over improving the whistle? I couldn't help but laugh! XD) and that led her group into witnessing the village under attack by the Queen's Nest enveloped with slime.

Riko was on fire throughout the battle, as she even cut her hair short and use herself and a transformed Kaja to bait the nest into a trap laid out by the marketplace squad. When that wasn't enough to subdue the enemy, she blew on the whistle and Reg finally made his reappearance, with his look altered due to the whistle's powers. They won in the end and saved just about all of the villagers, including the pink Maaa creature whose blessed with a lot of luck to survive another ordeal again.

Vueko's now gone into storyteller mode and while we'll hear the rest of what she has to say in the next episode, one thing that she said here was about Reg being a resident of this village and that one of the great sages actually fears him. I'm sure the latter half of this season is going to leave me on the edge of my seat with what could possibly happen. Great episode overall. =)

Best episode so far! It's cool to see more of the dangerous creatures at deeper levels. Riko and party would definitely be dead if they had to deal with that thing alone. Short hair Riko is so cute! I'm guessing she had to trade her hair for Majikajas fast body? Reg with white metal looks pretty sick too.
Did anyone notice the animation looked a little strange at the beginning? Maybe it's just me, but Riko looked a bit off there.

Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

Seems like we're moving toward some sort of climax which is good and 'bout damn time. Still, the way Riko whistled and summoned Reg ... was kinda weird. Maybe it was purposefully an allegory to a dog and its master but who knows.

I hope they will get Nanachi back!

And what's with that slime thing. The male looks like a sperm. πŸ˜‚

That Kaja transformation is really cool. Cho kakkoi.

And short hair Riko-chan.

Anyways its great episode. Looking forward next week again!

It was an ok episode I guess, these last 2 episodes are ok but nothing that will make me go crazy about, I still consider this season a 6/10, let's see if the remaining episodes are good enough to make me reconsider my rating.

I still believe this season is overrated out of proportions, for something that is rated 8.74 I expected more but this is MAL for you so no surprise there.

Well, they rushed the hell out of Juroimoh's epic kaiju fight. Kind of a shame but we only have 12 episodes so they need to cut content from somewhere. Especially since this episode is the moment where the manga chapters started to drag a bit.

Other than that, it was another great episode. Riko had her moment to shine and my god, that "Cradle of Greed" glimpse at the end. People seriously aren't ready for the horror that is Iruburu's origin story.

It's an abyss' relic. It will be addressed next episode.

Long story short: Prushka became Riko's White Whistle and White Whistles' function is to activate the "true purpose" of relics and Reg is a relic so...
