Made in Abyss
tv·TV-MA·Jul 7, 2017·
Made in Abyss delivers pure dark fantasy adventure through Riko, Reg, and Nanachi's descent into the Abyss, free of identity politics or progressive messaging. This focus on exploration and consequences earns its 1/10 woke score.
Made in Abyss follows original characters including young explorer Riko, robot boy Reg, and companion Nanachi as they descend through the layers of a mysterious, curse-filled Abyss, confronting survival challenges, body horror transformations, lost memories, and tragic lore elements such as the village of the Hollows and the Cradle of Desire.
The series emphasizes classic dark fantasy adventure storytelling centered on exploration, world mysteries, and consequence-driven plot momentum drawn from the creator's childhood-inspired fantasies, with all figures as new fantasy creations in a Japanese production. Across both reviewed seasons, the narrative avoids any framing around identity politics, systemic oppression, critiques of traditional norms, or DEI elements, resulting in a straightforward, mature adventure free of progressive messaging. This consistent approach underpins the show's official overall woke score of 1/10.
Methodology: Each score synthesizes audience discourse, critic and aggregator reception, and press coverage — weighed against the work itself, not any single source.
