| I dont know what it is, maybe Made in Abyss ruined me but the art style and tone make me think something is going to go horribly horribly wrong. Please tell Im not alone so I know im not crazy. |

| I don't think something horrible will happen. Maybe it's going to be a little bit dramatic but I guess it's not going to be more than that but I know how you feel. |
 I will not believe that everything is controlled by fate. ll X ll |
| I don't believe in a show with one of the MC voiced by Minase Inori. Too often the series turns out to be bloody or depressing. It feels like a running gag at this point. |

| I don't know why but the whole vibe of this show seems really high quality, although the general premise is a little mundane, the dialogue, animation, voice acting, plot flow, everything so far has been really strong imo. It sort of seems like a show this well put together will take a turn at a point to something more dramatic. I'm really interested to see the rest of this show. |
| I mean, the only way I can see a "darker route" happening for this series, would be if the whole point of this series was actually that these high school girls can't make it to Antarctica, and winds up being a commentary on how contrived moe slice of life shows are at getting their characters to go on adventures that would be impossible for their age. I certainly don't think it'll be nearly as dark as Made in Abyss, even if that hypothetical scenario does happen. That said, I don't see the hypothetical situation happening either, because the presentation of this series is pretty straightforward, and the op already shows them going to Antarctica. Even the color gradient has a lot of warm tones, a lot of reds and oranges, assumedly to distinctly separate the differences in atmosphere between Japan and Antarctica. |
| Hopefully, Nanachi saves them when something bad inevitably happens to them in Antarctica. |

They're heading to one of the most dangerous locations on earth, known for it's unpredictable, wild weather. They're already hinted at the fact that Shirase's mother may have died there and that the station seems to be in disrepair and could soon be shut down. Further to that, they're children, not trained adults, they don't always act logically, I could see one of them getting upset or lost and freezing to death easily, not because it's a common thing in SOL but because they are going to the most uninhabitable place on the earth. |
| But there was nothing "going horribly wrong" in MiA. We were explicitly told about dangers and deadly traps of the Abyss in the early episodes. And while Yorimo has some drama and hints that not everything is sunshine and rainbow,the tone is much more upbeat and primarily comedic - MiA was never like that in the first place. |

That's exactly what OP is saying the show is going too well, it feels off, why would they make an Adventure/SoL that has no conflict and seems to be putting all of it's effort into character development, it doesn't add up. |
| the age rating is 13+, I don't think anything horrible could happen, right? Right? |

Please tell Im not alone so I know im not crazy. to be honest, after last episode, if somebody wants it, I think it can They put I think 3 death symbols around Yuzuki so far, be it deliberate or accidental. I think we should wait and see. Takako (Shirase's mom) is definitely dead, imo, and next episode will probably be about that (as well as other stuff.) but in the end, it depends on pacing. I don't they will have time to do this kind of stuff. Plus, it's not in the usual dish of the writer. except.... if they suddenly announce a second cour. Then everything could happen. ps.: there's nothing wrong putting everything into character development, especially for main cast. Actually, all shows should have done that. |
Dreamer_Plague7 said: Wait why are we comparing this to Made in Abyss? Just because one of the main characters' moms are mysterious doesn't mean they're going to be the same anime. There's no way this anime is going to be that dark. The tone and quality are very similar. Kids on an adventure to a dangerous place with nearly no experience or training, except this show doesn't have Reg. |
| Until now the anime just changed between light comedy and drama, i don't think it will turn like Made in Abyss. The most tragic thing i can imagine is that Shirase's mother is dead and maybe she will find the body or maybe someone falls on the ice, but probably will not die. |

I think we should wait and see. Welp, time to count how many times she mentioned she wanted to die or kill someone. <pics> Nice collection. But you're missing the important ones: - Back in episode 3, Yuzuki arc, the climax cut is when Kimari and Yuzuki hands meet. Well, what can you join, you can separate. (You know what I mean.) - The characters goodbyes on episode 5. Kimari has Megu hangover, Shirase sets off from her house like a grownup child, Hinata walks through street on the opposite way of the flow (all three are in-line with their characters,) But Yuzuki is the only one showing goodbye to her family (in this case, her Mom.) Not only that this tells you just how close they are really is, if someone wants it, this can turn into a death flag. I'm still on the side that believes nothing will happen. How they put these "random death flags" is similar to what they did on Chika on whole Love Live! Sunshine. Since, you know, same writer. (Hanada Jukki wrote most of the plot on Sunshine and also here.) Officially Chika didn't die, did she? (Well, she's still dead to me lol.) |

That 1 million yen is their "Reg", though i doubt any high school girls could realistically save that much from "normal" part-time jobs *wink |

Please tell Im not alone so I know im not crazy. I don't think anything is going to be horribly wrong. At worst I'm guessing that Shirase is either going to come to terms with/realize that her mother is dead and gone forever. *I haven't read the manga so I really don't know, its only what is presumed* Especially now that they have actually arrived and set foot on Antartica, the emotions probably will be overwhelming. BTW - Made in Abyss was completely different. There were sinister undertones throughout both the anime and manga, so most of that shouldn't have come as a surprise. It's one of my favorites, but I can't say that they were exactly subtle with the forewarnings of impending danger and despair. I mean, hell they even gave you an entire chapter/episode to prep for Reg blasting Mitty away (which was the humane thing to do imo). But that's just me. I don't see this remotely similar to Made in Abyss, outside of the 'adventure' aspect, but even in that regard its portrayed in an entirely different way than MiA |

Please tell Im not alone so I know im not crazy. it's an adventure, slice of life anime with cute girls doing cute things. 70% comedy 30% drama up to the episode 9. I'd say with 99.9% certainty no one will die at the, or towards the end (not the girls nor the crew); this anime isn't trying to make us feel depressed (Shirase's mother is the only top drama element of the series and she shall stay as one). I see people mentioning "made in abyss" but i personally fail to see any signs of this show suddenly taking a dark turn. The show is meant to be enjoyable; drama part is balanced and well done - I doubt they'll turn this show into more dramatic and less funny show for some reason. P.S It is quite possible though that someone might give us a "heart attack", by falling under the ice or getting lost in a snow storm; in other words - be presumed dead for a moment, but they'll show up fine and well eventually, so expect to see smiling faces towards the end. If there'll be tears, they'll just be tears of joy. |

I think there may be a second season with a more dramatic tone. Also the staff have worked on more dramatic series than a simple trip to Antarctica. |

P.S maybe it IS just a SIMPLE TRIP to Antarctica (well the title also says that); the story just happens to have some drama in it - that's it. No new deaths; no traumas; no disasters. There will certainly be some feels moments such as: "mission over - returning home" and "goodbye mother". That's MY opinion, but i would even bet 1000$ that the story shall have no dark turning point; nor there shall be a season 2 as the story shall end here. |

As much as I want it, for now the chance of a season 2 is very very small. Bcs it gets good reception, but in terms of hype it's not special. (It's hype who convinces the big shots that if they do make another season, they can sell more merch.) |
