| Oof, Made in Abyss never misses with the scenery. There’s some truly mesmerizing shots throughout the episode. Background artists went off on this one. Really good episode. Our crew couldn’t catch a breath that they were already under attack. At least the food seemed to be tasty. Right, Nanachi? Lol cute Some of the weird stuff is already starting to show. Nanachi’s and Riko’s hair stuffed in those creatures was kinda disgusting, especially because it was stuffed in the creature’s butt lol. They seem to have finally reached the colorful village! A weird shadow is following them. Cuties!  |
| You never know exactly what's down there in the 6th layer. Episode had this tense feeling that anything could happen especially when Rico and their group isn't alone. I think episode also did a decent job at showcasing how to survive in such an environment. They would have to eat any type of food, no matter how strange it may be. Nanachi is also such an adorable character between the main three. |
 |
| Decent OP and ED. Really nice episode. Definitely better than the first one imo. I love the world-building in this show. All those mysterious places they travel are so cool and interesting. That hair scene was pretty disgusting. :C |

| See ? This is the part, this is what made this manga shine the most, just adventuring and exploring the abyss, discovering new life the deeper you go, dealing with the environment and or trying to survive in it ... And not getting stuck in some back ass village for half an eternity. Also no pooping this week ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |
 |
| Only one question I want to ask before I watch the ep : Is it safe to watch the op ? Is there a risk of getting spoiled ? |
| Gosh, the ending theme is so good. This is what an adventure anime should be. Exploring, discovering, surviving. And the sceneries are god-like as always |
| DILF characters need more appreciation Hot boys which are not Bishies also welcome |
| didn't look at the OP Visual, i'm scared of spoiler so just listen to it. that thing still moved after boiled? ew so disgusting... what are these mysterious creatures, i'm so curious. |
 |
| I really like Reg and Nanachi, with their analysis specialties. To be fair is expected the hatchling survive being boiled and fried, thermal vents are hotter than that. The hair part was straight out of a terror movie. Seeing Majikaja moving, makes me curious about the other important citizens move. |
 |
| Those “eggs” when fried kinda reminded me of popplers from Futurama lol. I like that there are some nice comedic moments in this show to offset all the dark shit. The mail balloon part in this ep being an example. “Let’s just believe it’ll….” aaaand it’s gone haha. Silliness aside, it looks like they’re not alone down here with the creatures. The creepy fuck didn’t just steal Prushka, they snuck in and clipped Nanachi and Riko’s hair and sewed it into the butthole of some critter. And Reg sniffed that shit. Dude really is like a dog, fits the name haha. But man, the minute I saw that creepy cave with the human bits and all those creatures, I had a bad feeling. Seeing Majikaja and how “it” can talk and what was said at the end makes me think these were the humans that came down ages ago. |

| Quite a freaky episode. Starting with the creepy food and ending with that weird development. Are those the people from the backstory? |
 |
| Nice OP and ED. I doubt I'd survive very long in this Abyss. The sight of those eggs they ate were rather eh. I guess beggars can't be choosers, but still. These layers never get better, which I guess is the point. But between the exploding vents, and finding your own hair stuffed into dead creatures. This is a pretty bad area. That being said, despite the warning at the end, I can't imagine Riko losing her human form. |
 "...Is your mother worried? Would you like us to assign someone to worry your mother?" |
| Beautiful scenery, hidden dangers, disgusting looking food, funny creatures, we're fully back after the backstory episode. Majikaja made me think of Cradily  Opening is pretty good again and that's saying something. The first one set the bar high after all. Ending by Myth & Roid is nice too. Give me Re:Zero vibes, but overall it lacks recognition value compared to the one from S1. |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| I loved the first episode, but the second one is even better. I've missed the explorers of Vuelko in this one, I wonder what happened with them, maybe they turned into these creatures of the sixth layer? idk what to think |
| All aboard the depression train! If there is one thing I love about this show is the Abyss. Full of unique creatures, weird food, mesmerizing scenery, everything feels alive. And oh boy, that creature who greets them at the village is kind of creepy to me. Is it just me? |
| Probably an unpopular opinion but I like the opening for this season way more than the first one. The first one was good but I definitely prefer this new one, sounds and looks really good. Liked the MYTH & ROID ending here too quite a bit. Also prefer this way more than the original ED song for the first season. The episode itself was slower and more of a transition, adventure type episode till the ending but I actually prefer these kinds of episodes from this series way more than whenever there's a major focus on the storytelling since I'm not a fan of that side of Made in Abyss whatsoever, as well as not being a fan of the character writing either. Just seeing the sixth layer be fleshed out visually even more for a majority of the episode with good production overall and an interesting cliffhanger like that was a lot simpler yet better for me than a good chunk of the previous episode. |
| The journey continues, I think you really have to pay attention to the character writing even if they aren't the best out there it's the most simple but effective yet for understanding their psychology, instead of wanting a fully fleshed-out adventure since Made in Abyss as a whole is all about trying to learn new things and bring tragedy when it is needed to provide a quite of realism and graphicness. This is a formulaic one since throughout the adventure, Riko and the crew have tried out exotic foods that are available in their own surrounding. Anyways though less of a mechanism episode but it's a wonderful setup with the variety of visual imagery and a showcase of them walking around to move forward to their adventure, it was indeed some tranquility. Btw OP of the season. Different sets of emotions were shown, with an interesting perspective and paralleling between Riko and her crew and The Three Sages and a fluid transition from Belaf's close-up to the start of an even immersive adventure! The ED alongside has some sort of identity that I can't really put some emphasis on because the lines in the visual are various sets of symbolism that could dive into the psychological aspect or dark atmospheric like "Calm before the storm", overall just beautiful as the lyrics and hymn goes on. |
"......If I told you that I was a real witch, would you believe it?"  |
| This season is doing a really great job reminding me why Made in Abyss is one of my favorite franchises. Such incredible scenery and such an intriguing world I can't wait for next week. |
  ★・・・・・・★ If you wish to treat this incident as our nation’s scheme, that is fine by me. History is written by the victors. All of your false accusations will soon be erased. ★・・・・・・★ |
| Will watch the full episode later, but watched the OP and ED; The first one is great, the music and visuals sinergy is nice and both fit the series positive and melancholic feelings. The later is okay imo. From what I noticed, the OP IS SPOILER F REE FOR ANIME ONLIES that doesn't know anything that will happen in this arc. The only exception is Who read the manga or know the events will probably get the context from most of its scenes. |

| Anime openings rarely give me goosebumps but this one did, the song and visuals are amazing |
 |
| What an unsettling episode, creepy as hell. |
 |
| Gotta say, out of everything we've seen in this show so far, nothing has grossed me out more than that thing's butt being ripped open and a bloody clump of hair coming out... Reminded me of a certain something Howie Mandel posted last week ಠ_ಠ Jokes aside, I haven't felt this enthralled by the world of MiA since the last ep of season 1. The movie and ep 1 were great, but they were so gritty, I started wondering if everything was going to be gray and depressing/claustrophobic from now on, so I'm glad that's not the case. The CG wasn't bad, and the visuals seem on par with season 1 so far. That last line gave me the chills... Can't wait for the story to kick into gear. |
| Good OP and ED. I think I may like the OP more than the first one. The butt ripping scene was beyond gross, thank god the didn't delve too much into it. Majikaja's voice sounds so pleasant, I imagined him soundind like that. |
 |
| Riko and Nanachi’s hair being sewn shut inside the butt of those creatures is the last thing I expected to see in today’s episode. But when I thought it wouldn’t get anymore weirder, they really ended it with the appearance of a creepy puppet creature and a bunch of other Hollows. Shits crazy. |
 |
| that cliff hanger ending damnnnnn pretty disgusting seeing riko and nanachis hair stuffed in the creature's butts and as always nanachis is just the cutest cant wait for the next ep |

| The 6th layer is a creepy place for sure. Huge monsters, smol monsters and creepy monsters. The background and visuals were on another level as always, can't complain about this aspect of the show. Well, they got hairly assaulted when they were sleeping. Time to look for who did it and they managed to find the place but there's a secret that they don't know. Humans can't keep their original form and I feel like the monsters there are the first group who arrived at the 6th layer. |

| the journey is begin !! i loved this show !! |

OP has very minor spoilers but mostly relating too future character appearances and some relics. Other than that, not really. |
| 【=◈︿◈=】セックス大好き... What can I say? 【=◈︿◈=】 |
| I am once again here to shill for Kevin Penkin. OP & ED are awesome, especially the ED love me some MYTH&ROID. And the OST when they were at the village entrance...so good. Seeing all the villagers in color was pretty nice. Can't say I expected that color scheme for Majika but no complaints. How did they make almost-hatched eggs look so delicious...you trying to get me to eat fried chick's?! |
 |
| A lot better than ep1, I can’t wait for next week |

DoubleR said: Holy fuck that very ending was out of no where and caught me by surprise. Stuff is about to get dark. It seems that the mechanical guy is at least aware of Prushka. But I can't remember exactly who is she, I thought she was Meinya (who I don't remember who is she either) Prushka was Bondrewds daughter, if you remember the third movie, and Meinya was her pet. |

| this week in Wholesome in Abyss, we got raw and alive kfc. Gordon Ramsay approves! Great episode. Next episode will be quite a punch it seems. |

But I can't remember exactly who is she, I thought she was Meinya (who I don't remember who is she either) Have you watched the third movie? It's the direct prequel to this season and absolutely relevant to the story. If you haven't already, definitely watch it! |
