The anime series Made in Abyss has been added to Disney+ in Japan, including the entire first season and the movie.
Made in Abyss is a fantasy series that initially follows a young girl named Riko and a young robot boy named Reg, as they descend into the eponymous “Abyss.” The abyss is a strange and magical place, laden with artifacts and monsters. But a curse awaits those who venture into its deeper regions.
The series is noteworthy for its grimdark themes, body horror, and sometimes ecchi character designs and aesthetics. This makes it a surprise for Disney to pick up for online distribution, but at present it’s only available in Japan via Disney+. Sentai Filmworks has the North American distribution license and the series is available on HIDIVE.
