There’s so many works I’ve seen that I wish were created by someone other than their author/studio.
Mild example: Yesterday, a clip from an anime popped up in my Shorts feed, and it looked cool so I went to the comments to see if I could find the name. Right at the top, I see a comment I left saying “Don’t watch this, everything after episode 1 was incredibly mid. The plot sounds awesome when you describe it but in execution it was so fucking bland”. I don’t even remember leaving that comment.
(The anime in question was Daily Life of Immortal King. Protag is born with Ultra Instinct and only gets more powerful over time, so his family puts a magic seal on him to keep his power at the mere ultra-instinct he was born at. The anime follows him as he tries to keep a low profile at Xianxia hero school.)
I was told by others that it was only at the beginning and to give it another shot, but I was too skeeved out to keep going. Good to know I made the right call and avoided that pedo shit.
Haven’t read the manga as comic books don’t interest me all that much, the anime definitely has some questionable things in it but if you can look past that the whole concept of the abyss and the creature designs are great. The design of the turbinid dragons are one of the best I’ve seen!
I cant get past the loli/shota grossness at the start of Made in Abyss. I’d be embarrassed to recommend that to anyone.
It’s not getting better. Such a great concept and art destroyed by a pedo mangaka (well it wouldn’t exist without him but still)

Its not just at the start…

The manga is worse. Ive read and watched a lot of anime and manga. Made in the abyss is almost the most fucked up you can get.
