>Let's go on a journey to the mysterious centre of the earth
>Whoops, gotta take a shit

so many fantasy advertures 100% skip all practicalities like dealing with basic bodily functions without access to modern 1st world infrastructure and services that simply including a pooping scene is fresh and interesting

then again mia isn't focused on it, like whod take women to abyss and then have to deal with periods and them getting pregnant since the men in the posse fuck them

>>280291285
>take women to abyss and then have to deal with periods and them getting pregnant
I mean, that is the backstory of a main character in this story.

>>280291249 (OP)
This anime could've been so kino if the author wasn't a literal shit-eating pedophile. What's the narrative reasoning for the characters being infantile blobs btw?

Why only riko poop?

>>280291426
reg is a robot and nanachi has the brain of a 20y+ old so she has tact to shit in the bushes when appropriate
rikos pet hamster pooping is a recurring feature

>>280291426
Canonically riko has frequent diarrhea from eating strange foods
reg is a robot nanachi has a pajeet tier diet and so doesn't get sick

>>280291285
When one of those pooping scenes involve a 12 year old girl getting her butthole licked by a sentient toilet, then it’s normal to question the necessity of it.

>>280291490
You can question it all you want but must eventually accept that the answer is yes it is necessary.

>>280291490
>uhh why doesn't this village made out of a little girl have regular toilets

When I was a kid, I used to go innawoods with my cousin, and me and her used to piss and poop together communally. I used to enjoy looking at her steaming excrement, and the darkening of the tree barks because it had our urine on it. Made in Abyss has a childlike approach towards its curiosity towards the urinary and digestive systems, and how it portrays it with a sense of wonder, instead of as something shameful/humourful. I miss my childhood, I miss being a kid, and all the wonderful experiences of youth with my love ones.
>>280291490
I think the scene works because it is something that Riko would be curious about, and try it itself. It wouldn't work with just a random kid.

>>280291426
>>280291417
Take a guess.

>>280291547
Necessary for the author to jack off to that is

113 HOURS

>>280291426
She has gastrointestinal problems

>>280291490
I’m questioning why more anime don’t have similar scenes.

>>280291490
The only question I have is why Reg didn’t get his own scene with that toilet.

>>280291769
Yes.

>>280291249 (OP)
What's so attractive about seeing kids shit? Does this guy get off on changing a baby's diaper?

Volume late this month, allegedly

i think it would have been cool if the journey from the 5th to 6th involved underwater horror, i.e., the "sub" had to be piloted and it was more archaic. like barotrauma.

>>280291417
Author is a heterosexual

>>280291588
Stuff can be bizarre without being sexual. Stuff can also be sexual without molesting the kid-characters. Like with the fellow who gets off on perfecting white whistles. He's not bothering anyone.

>>280291490
You're right.
Reg should be the one licking Riko's butthole.

>>280291249 (OP)
there's too much pedoshit

>>280291652
>I used to enjoy looking at her steaming excrement
Are you saying that you used to watch the poop come out of her butt with fascination? Or that you'd stare at your piles of shit and piss afterwards?

>>280296648
Canon Riko x Reg sex would be amazing. It would be as intense and passionate as it is romantic.

>>280291285
>>280291249 (OP)
One of my favorite parts of Made In Abyss is just that. Mundane things like taking a bath or taking a shit or cooking a meal or setting up camp to sleep are given more focus than they would in your typical "adventure" story. I like that Tsucc thinks to include stuff like that. It really feels like every step matters.

>>280291249 (OP)
KINO

>>280291426
It's that she poops a lot. It's how she poops. She poops very loudly and explosively without a care in the world for the all the violent messy noises she makes. She doesn't hold back. Even if she tries, she can't. She's got a bazooka for a butthole.

>>280291249 (OP)
Realistic, relatable, and cinematic.

>>280295896
I don't think people allow him around children

>>280296636
I'll be that guy:
The sexual part is necessary and I think you misundestand art if you don't know why. Tsucc is not just using the story as a vehicle to get away with the fetish stuff, and he's not just inserting it willy-nilly either. He is writing a story that is well and truly born from the world of his imaginations, and that includes his libido. You're mistaken and do not get how shit works if you think there would or even could *be* a Made In Abyss without the weird stuff. Additionally, there is thematic or storytelling justification for virtually all of the ecchi scenes. Yes, even the toilet. Not only would a neutered MIA not be MIA, it wouldn't be a thing at all. The stylus never would have touched the tablet, and again, you don't get it if you're honestly thinking, "Gee, this *could* be good with a few tweaks/cuts." Believe me, Kinema Citrus cut enough.
Going further, Reg x Riko is really no worse than watching something like Moonrise Kingdom and you might genuinely be bitter if their innocent romance disturbs you.
Going even further, I think the whole "story as an excuse to showcase his fetishes" accusation is a pretty shitty way to say, "uses shape language informed by his own aesthetic preferences to create something uniquely his own."
Fuck off.

>>280291769
The series as a whole only exists for the author to jack off to in the first place, that scene is not an exception.
>NOO HE SHOULD ONLY DRAW THE THINGS THAT ARE SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE
That's not how art works

I may legit have to defend this series more in the near future. The fucking twitterverse just apparently rediscovered the fact that MIA is an unashamedly lolisho series.

>>280297945
>Not only would a neutered MIA not be MIA, it wouldn't be a thing at all. The stylus never would have touched the tablet
That's not true, editors often beat an author's original vision into a marketable shape. The stylus has to touch the tablet if the owner of the stylus and tablet wants to be able to pay for rent and food.

>>280298284
Please tell me more about how Made In Abyss ought to be further beaten into a more marketable shape. I really think the lolis are holding it back.

>>280297370
I'm mad they cut that out from the game

>>280291462
Reg is able to pee, so I think it is safe assumption that he also poops, oddly Tsukushi has never shown it or mentioned it.
Maybe he's only into loli scat, not shota scat.

>>280291417
It's a dark fairy tale. This wouldn't come across if they were adults.

>>280298121
The Japanese capacity to find a guy who loves children charming even if they know he's a lolicon/shotacon always amazes me. At this point I wonder if their brains just work differently. Or maybe it really is that Western culture sees children as being in constant danger all the time every second. In the Japanese mind, they think "Yeah, he's a pedophile but only acting on it would be bad, and actually he genuinely LOVES children and that's sweet".

>>280301827
I love Made In Abyss!

>>280302232
>dark fairy tale
Actually probably the most apt description of MIA I've seen. At one point Riko is effectively brought back to life with a kiss, and she's bleeding from every hole in her body when it happens. That sort of juxtaposition is precisely correct. Good post, I like how you worded it.

Nanachi S1 vs S2 outfit?

>>280299548
Diarrhea is so gross and silly that it seems absurd to put in a story, but it's very realistic, since in real life adventurers and armies have been merced by diarrhea, especially in Africa. It's a fantastical story, but it's naturalistic in terms of human fraility. It doesn't reserve human fraility for dramatic things like stylized violence, as in other shows. Though it also has violence and gore, it allows the more pathetic kinds of human fraility to be shown too.

>>280301827
And it tops sales on Amazon every time
Pedochads in control

>>280302752
Yeah, and what's wild is that Tsucc *does* foreshadow the diarrhea as being what wiped out the Ganja squad throughout layer 6 and the village arc.
>Meinya shits in the elevator to layer 6
>Riko has to take a fat dump in the elevator too
>there's a fucking turd on the ground when Riko lays down to pantomime sleeping
>Riko gets indigestion from the village's local cuisine and spends the day on the pot shitting her brains out, pretty sure this actually plays a role in separating the party
>Riko actually flashes back to Jiruo's lessons post-diarrhea and even thinks to rehydrate because, incidentally, explorers can actually *die* from getting the runs
And sure enough, the Ganja squad basically got party-wiped by diarrhea and dehydration. There was legit a reason for him having Riko shit her brains out and think, "I'd better drink some water, explorers can die from diarrhea." Bro Chekhov's Gun'd a bowel movement.
If you think about it, he sorta did the same thing with the baby-eating, too. The party eats those weird wriggling fetus things from the eggs around the time they encounter the Iron Rain. Already putting the idea off eggs and of eating infants/young into your head, and subtly, through that imagery. That whole eating-the-fetuses-out-of-the-eggs thing was foreshadowing paralleling what happened with Irumyuui and the wish-granting eggs. It wasn't "oh, look how gross this stuff they're eating is."
Half the time I see these "what was the purpose of X" posts in Made In Abyss threads I don't even want to honor them with a response because the response kinds necessitates a spoilery thematic analysis of a whole fucking arc bound up with whst *should* be Media Literacy 101, and frankly because I deadass think people aren't always asking in earnest.

>>280303503
You unironically need a very high IQ to truly appreciate Made in Abyss and this is evident by so many viewers missing these things and then getting mad, or maybe you could say that you need to not have your intelligence impaired by your outrage/disgust to enjoy Made in Abyss.

>>280297945
>and again, you don't get it if you're honestly thinking, "Gee, this *could* be good with a few tweaks/cuts." Believe me, Kinema Citrus cut enough.
>You're wrong, please believe me! Also fuck off!
Listen, I don't know if Tsukushi only gets out of bed when the editors promise him another undiluted molestation scene. Maybe that's the case. Doesn't mean it's above criticism. Doesn't mean it elevates the story simply because it's in line with the theme of child exploitation, and frankly, it isn't. It's like a movie about the horrors of war occasionally trying to make killing really, really cool. It fucks with the theme.
I also never said anything about Reg x Riko. Stop strawmanning.

>>280291285
I mean, I agree, but the nudity and shitting scenes in MIA aren't meant to show us how difficult it is to perform basic necessities in the abyss, they're just tsukushi's undisguised fetish.

>>280302481
that's what a high trust community feel like i guess

I love my wife Nanachi!

>>280304587
This is a very important part of the characters' relationships as well

>>280304629
Now you're just making me sad.

>>280297370
I also like the sheer amount of physical intimacy.

>>280298536
>>280302125
I'm just saying, in a less lucky timeline, there could have been a neutered MiA.
Saying that it could never happen, that Tsukushi would sooner die than omit any fetish from the manga, is foolish.

By Tsukushi's sacred authorial vision, Nanachi was supposed to die in the Idofront battle.

>>280304079
If anything I'd say MIA is the bell curve meme. You have the absolute normiest of normies who would watch it because it has Studio Ghibli staff or because something like Crunchyroll's Anime of the Year or Toonami shilled it or because Riko uoooohhh, right? And then you have fans who legit appreciate the amazing thing it really is as a work of art and a cultural phenomenon on a deeper level and who sperg out HARD over it.

>>280304548
>Doesn't mean it elevates the story simply because it's in line with the theme of child exploitation, and frankly, it isn't. It's like a movie about the horrors of war occasionally trying to make killing really, really cool. It fucks with the theme.
I'm not even going with the misplaced "the lolisho stuff fits with the themes of child exploitation" argument I see so often in defense of it. I don't think Tsucc flopped Riko's titty out for a single panel because pedoshit can somehow be thematically bound up with Bondrewd kidnapping orphans or Belchero not having OSHA compliance. I'm not that naive. The man is a lolicon, and certain scenes, particularly in the manga, probably are meant to be titillating.
I'm saying the libido is a good thing in and of itself. I think that drawing is probably a masturbatory/tactile process for him, that it's probably why he doesn't particularly like drawing old dudes, and that it translates to things like stone surfaces and tummies and tufts of fur or grass feeling touchable. Apart from the motivation factor of getting Tsucc out of bed, I don't think the art would be the same without his horny. I think the shape language of it is sublimated horny to a nonzero degree and that the absence of that would make every shot less expressive.
I also think that something can be weird and also serve storytelling purposes.

>>280305116
Also, yeah, this. The skinship of Made In Abyss is something I've wanted to give some serious thought on its own because it's super-prevalent. It's a primary mechanic of advancement, even. There's so much hugging.
>Riko hugging Reg being the primary mechanic for them rappelling down
>Nanachi's hug calming down berserk-mode Reg during the fight at Idofront
>Reg hugging Nanachi after using the incinerator on Mitty
>Riko sleeping on Reg's warm tummy
>Reg snuggling Nanachi's fluffy tail in their sleep
>the fact that you're even told what characters *smell* like up-close and it's not even always pleasant (Riko still smelling like vomit after she throws up, Maa smelling a little bit like poop, etc.)
>all the hand-holding
I really do love how... Touchy, it is, as weird as that probably comes across.

This thread convinced me to finally start reading MiA. Dark fairy tale by an unabashedly weird author sounds right up my alley. How faithful is the anime adaptation?

>>280305513
Very, here's the watching order
>Season 1 (there are two compilation movies if you prefer)
>Dawn of the Deep Soul (MANDATORY, don't pull a Kojima and skip it. MANDATORY)
>Season 2
Then you enjoy the eternal waiting.

>>280305131
Well, whether or not you're going with that specific argument, child exploitation's still a major theme in Made in Abyss. Orphaned children are routinely sent into an eldritch pit for profit. When they misbehave, they're subjected to BDSM bullshit by their sadistic headmistress. The theme's impossible to overlook, and can't simply be set aside whenever Tsukushi decides it's actually fine and kinda funny for Riko to get rimmed by a transmogrified sex offender.
Maybe you're right and the whole thing does serve his storytelling purposes, but it also hamstrings his storytelling.

>>280305513
It is legitimately a very good adaptation that is very respectful towards its source material, and the OST is incredible and elevates it significantly.
That said, some things are cut (mostly supplemental stuff about what characters on the surface are up to), there is a change made to a creature encounter on Layer 3, and the intro arc is ordered a little differently from how it's presented in the manga. Also the anime does not draw female nipples so you sometimes have Barbie dolls onscreen for a second or two.

>>280305751
Kinda annoys me that Faputa's nipples weren't drawn, not because I find her sexy, but it's more of a "She's not showing them off, but rather she isn't hiding them" thing.

It's also way more obvious in the manga that Reg gets flustrated and aroused by her bare chest before he gives her the goggles

>>280305715
>whether or not you're going with that specific argument, I find it way more assailable than an unabashed liking of the weird shit and would like to continue diverting focus towards it as though it were the point you made
>also I accused you of strawmanning a few posts up

Sou desu, watashi wa Fluffzen.

>>280305122
>in a less lucky timeline
Made In Abyss is unironically one of rhe few truly redeeming things about this timeline and I hope Tsucc stays healthy

You "people" are so fucking gay trying to justify loli/shota sex as "realism" or "necessary for the plot"
It doesn't need justification, it's fucking HOT
Just that with Made in Abyss it adds realism AND it's hot

>>280306339
Not being a lolicon is not understanding that like five or six elements intersect to make this character design fucking INSANE

>>280305898
We're discussing the story's themes. Anon's thoughts on libido have no bearing on the story or its themes, so I'm not interested in discussing it. What's wrong with that?

>>280306339
Hey buddy, I think you've got the wrong thread. DBS is two threads down

>>280291426
I agree that Reg should get a pooping scene too.
It would be cute if he gets all embarrassed by it

>>280306440
I'm like barely surface level lolicon. Explain.

>>280306497
What's wrong with that is the womb metaphor within a womb metaphor in a story about literal penetration wherein a 12-year-old girl on the cusp of pubescence seeks the lost image of her mother within the depths of a flesh-pit via the assistance of a shirtless, impossibly strong boy with a functioning cock in whose fantastically long arms she is held as she descends deeper

They're all vanilla elements of loli but in one bite they come together like something wholly apart and incredible. Riko is peak loli character design.

>>280306786
And also about the theme of child exploitation, which is butchered by occasionally positive portrayal of child abuse. We're not getting anywhere by refusing to address the core of my argument or trying to shift the subject to how Tsukushi's sex drive might improve his art through processes too arcane to argue about. If you don't like the original argument, quit. Don't try to steer me elsewhere and accuse me of strawmanning when I set the wheel straight.

This is the first mention of that theme ITT and it is specifically (You) presenting it as though it were a refutation-in advance-of the oft-cited "oh he's not indulging in it, it's to show that child exploitation is bad" line of argument. When I said I wasn't even saying that and that the elements you find distasteful served storytelling purposes apart from that,
>>280305131
You responded with "whether or not you're going with that specufic argument" and then ran a script anyway.
That is strawmanning. You find "the lolisho is okay because it speaks to the themes of child exploitation" to be more assailable than what I'm saying, you anticipated me taking that position on my behalf, and you want to argue with the guy who would take that position rather than arguing with me. Otherwise we need to "course-correct." Isn't a fucking railroad, bro, and I'm not getting railroaded.
You're not course-correcting anything with your insistence that I focus on the theme of child exploitation. Shout it into the void. Sometimes a person will respond to you in conversation with rhetoric outside the scope of what you had anticipated, or by bringing up things that hadn't occurred to you. Sometimes the conversation doesn't even go the way you wanted. That doesn't mean it went off-course when the little movie you had playing in your head diverges from reality.
Saying that the horny or distasteful elements of Made In Abyss speak to storytelling elements apart from child exploitation and that they inform the aesthetic and thematic presentation of the work as a whole is a direct refutation of the notion that such elements "hamstring" the story by standing in contradiction to a theme of child exploitation.

>>280307787
>This is the first mention of that theme ITT
>>280297945 was defending sexual content by extolling its thematic value.
>>>Additionally, there is thematic or storytelling justification for virtually all of the ecchi scenes. Yes, even the toilet.
And I argued that this thematic value is overshadowed by its negative effect on the story's first and most obvious theme. You ignored this, saying it's not an argument that you personally care for, and... so fucking what? That doesn't address the argument. You elbowed into an existing argument with a think piece regarding Tsukushi's art style, of all things.
>I think
>I don't think
>I think
>I also think
This isn't your blog. You're not entitled to get pissy when someone ignores your non-argument after you ignored theirs. I think you're wrong. There! What fucking good did that do you, anon?

>>280308623
I disagree with your central premise that child exploitation is the story's first and most obvious theme. I'd say, " 'I think' that your central premise of that being the story's first and most obvious theme is wrong," but I think you'd have an even bigger conniption if I said your trigger phrase again.
I further disagree that the damage done to the story (which is zero) overshadows any of the story's merits, and I think that's where we diverge. I think that the elevation of the work that is done by its inclusion of the very things you feel to detract from it overshadows any negatives that come with those elements. If the idea of those elements overshadowing the merits of the story hinges at all upon the notion that they hypocritically contradict some ostensibly central theme of child exploitation, then I disagree even harder insofar as I disagree with that theme being primary or central, but I'd disagree in a vacuum apart from that because I think the elements subjectively provide enough merit to overshadow any drawbacks.
I further think that this discussion suffers from viewing these elements in broad strokes, rather than individually. Taken individually, each "AYO THAT'S SUS" scene really does serve a purpose, and looking at them broadly as having a common element that detracts from some overall theme is purposefully unfair to that.
>someone ignores your non-argument after you ignored theirs
I've addressed it in the clearest terms possible. Twice now.

You keep thinking, rather than providing arguments that might help others think the same. It's no victory to frustrate others by attempting to communicate things you clearly care about. If you think some slight increase in drawing skill allegedly provided by the man's lolishota fetish outweighs the unnecessary (not all of it, mind) sexual content featuring kids, there's nothing I can do to sway you. Thinking didn't get you there. A desire to defend your preferences did. I'd rather be assblasted than think that way.

Riko is one of the sexiest lolis in existence. Her cunny levels are off the charts. She is way too powerful. She breaks me like few other lolis ever could. Just look at her. Reg gets to passionately breed this whenever he wants. He is unbelievably lucky.

We know that Reggy has the same functions as a regular human inside, and that he produces urine and semen. Has he tried masturbating yet?

>>280291417
>What's the narrative reasoning for the characters being infantile blobs
Two good reasons. First, the design makes them a little more endearing and it's a constant reminder these are little kids (12 is little) who are vulnerable. The impact of Riko being poisoned and having her arm broken and nearly amputated is absolutely horrifying specifically because of their design. Second, is to highlight the contrast between humans (frail, impermanent) and the abyss (menacing, eternal). That aside, yes the penis jokes were a little much.

>>280315459
Well, Riko definitely hasn't masturbated yet. They should practice together inside each other. They were made for each other after all.

>>280314122
"I can't get used to this toilet (she lied as naturally as she moaned). It's nice that it wipes for you though," she said.

She definitely loves it. Just look at that pleasured face. Toilet-kun definitely awakened something in her. She wants more. A lot more. Why else would she be blushing so much?

Yeah, but drawings make you feel things anyway. If watching Riko have good times makes you happy and watching her get traumatized for sexual gratification doesn't make you very unhappy, well, there's a simple solution to that riddle.

>>280315729
Who said that watching Riko suffer turned me on? I fucking cried watching episode 10. That episode broke me.

Where do you think you are?

>>280316365
Not usually, but sometimes the final chapter of a volume is so late that the volume comes out before the normal free web version, because the web "magazine" updates once every 10/7 days and the chapter may be finished after the last update before the volume deadline. I think it only happened once before?

>>280311122

Anyway I'll just add that at that point the anime must have been already in production so merchandising probably played a role in that too.

>>280319648
You should be a sort of supremacist of your own taste. >>279902220 is completely right. On the 4th Layer when Riko is poisoned it's not about what she experienced, it's multiple layers of danger and consequence coming to ahead, the curse, the threat, Reg's lack of confidence and how it has all escalated now that they're even farther than ever before.

Just as the duo escape the immediate threat, another is piled on, the rules of the fantasy world have been set long ago and are culminating into a nightmare scenario on characters who are absolutely not ready for it. The sense of terror piles on with Riko's condition worsening, poison and swelling settling in before she delivers her direction to Reg which is when the real horror begins to set in.

Does Reg have what it takes? No. The situation worsens jumping from escalation to escalation. As Reg's mind races if this was the right decision or not so does the viewer. But there's no going back, they can only go forward and as the turns worsen so does Reg's state. He pleads not to be left alone, the absurdity of this nigh invulnerable robot being terrified hits the viewer just as hard. Just as it all comes to ahead it seems like everything is lost. The way Tsukushi depicted this was spot on. Anyone who experienced loss as a young age can tell you that. Tsukushi was inserting his own vulnerabilities for the audience to project onto Reg. Just as things are worse than they've ever been with no hope in sight, then comes one last devilish ray of hope. Nanachi who seeks to bargain and trade pity for love, and an audience willing to do the same. Who at that moment wasn't completely aligned with Reg? Willing to give up everything and do anything just to continue on.

>>280320648
Fantasy at its most clinical is about setting up rules and interactions for the world you're getting a window to. Made in Abyss is the logical conclusion of this, it rewrites all social expectations and predispositions with its own reasoning, and goes a step further to integrate it into the world at so many levels. Even in the earliest chapters/episodes where in the orphanage they have vertically mounted desks accessed by ropes, integrating essential training into every day life, everyone watching at that moment knew that was a bout of cleverness in how it plays with expectations but also tells its own little story about the setting and expectations put on the characters.

Abyss fully invites you into its world and never falters. It asks from the onset how far are you willing to go for the ones you love? It's not just asking this of the characters, and not even about distance, but the audience too. You're invited to the deepest depths and will you stand by the sides of the characters you love on this journey? It's not some cheap film analysis "set up and pay off" but an elaborate puzzle you're encouraged to piece together. It wants you to look at its world from every angle and every perspective.

What actually was up with Akihito Tsukushi at the time? We got like two shitting scenes between four chapters. Was it just a phase, was he exploring and experimenting with new kinks? A rogue editor inserting his own fetishes? Because we never got another toilet scene after that.

>>280316135
>Those are the worst shits
The worst shits produce the best, most volcanic ASMR. I see this as an absolute win.

>>280322911
>We never got another toilet scene after that.
Tragically. I love it when she poops. Her butt produces such beautiful sounds. It's music to my hears.

Toilet-kun didn't go far enough. After giving her a thorough rimjob, he should've stuck his tongue up her butthole, tickled her rim, then went deep inside until he gave her an anal prolapse. What a missed opportunity. She was clearly enjoying it a lot. Might as well pleasure her to the fullest.

Could have fucking fooled me, nearly every female friend I've had has bitched and moaned about their periods, or been notably absent from any and all activities before giving a curt explanation that they have to fucking lay in bed all day because of that shit. Christ almighty this might be part of why I hate women.

Bros, I think we can all agree that Riko is very clearly anal-coded, right?

>>280302481
>>280304629
High trust society and a culture of controlling and/or dealing with disruptors will do that. Make a stink and your ass is getting sent to prison.

Imagine how soft and silky smooth she must be.

>>280323333
I truly believe that the fact that criminal penalties for child abuser getting more lax at the same time stranger danger exploded in the US is not a coincidence. In America, we blame the parents more than we blame the abusers. When it's already a cultural norm to let children go outside on their own and come back home unharmed, the "it's the parents' fault" scapegoat no longer works. I truly believe that scapegoating is why the sentences are getting lighter. "Yeah, the monster shouldn't have done it, but the parent was just asking for it, so she's partially at fault to," the judge and jury say. Um, actually no. Not touching kids is a code of iron. It shouldn't matter whether or not the child is unsupervised or not. If whether a child is alone or not is the only thing stopping you from abusing them, YOU are the problem. Not the parent. It's unfair to children to rob them their independence to accommodate the total lack of self-control of the absolute lowest of scum. Just don't prey on kids. It's that fucking simple. It's not hard.

>>280302225
Psychosocial anal-ysis, I think part of it's because it's more taboo to acknowledge or depict girls pooping that we saw her instead of Reg
It's just kind of expected that if you have a group of boys and girls in a story that has toilet humor, 9 times out of 10, only boys will fart or poop, and even now that's still the expected norm even though it's nowhere near the ironclad rule it was when I was growing up in the 80s and 90s.
It's the fetishfags who make it weird

>>280302225
>>280323882
Riko has problems with food/stomach, this is written into the story, Reg can swallow stones and carry shit as much as he wants, it would be inappropriate, don't overthink

>>280324139
Retardmax the point is the story would have been written to simply not acknowledge Riko having stomach problems by "old school" standards because it was once a big taboo because the Abrahamics can't stand the idea of women not being holy perfect demigoddesses

>>280323523
It's because it's a Made In Abyss thread. No, seriously.

>>280324449
This is leaving out the part where the male mangaka has the same bodily function Total-Party-Kill a group of explorers after foreshadowing it doing that like half a dozen times and even makes his own fairy tale version of diarrhea.

This kid was masturbating in the other room while Riko absolutely ate shit and broke her fucking teeth on the stairs
That's not even a joke, that happened

>>280324767
Prushka is cute and lewd

>>280315843
How fucking bad was it that Riko had to strip down like that to take a shit? I've done that before, but that's like a VIOLENT shit. When you have to take your fucking shirt off and you're shaking and sweating before you're even on the pot that is BAD. That's not even "take a shit" bad, when you ditch your shirt in anticipation like you're squaring up for a fight that is "EJECT a *SHIT*" territory. That's the kind where you're fucking REMORSEFUL for what you ate and have to do fucking yoga poses to flex the shit out.
>and she took Meinya with her
Poor creature. Probably squeezed it half to death.

>>280324933
Riko wears a skintight bodysuit. It's a one-piece outfit. Also, she doesn't actually take her top off. She just pulls the back of her bodysuit down since its backless. I just edited the strap on her neck off to make her look even more naked hufufufufufu~

>>280316135
I also lack a gallbladder. You're not having diarrhea. It's called dumping syndrome. I'm being real. Your liver produces bile that is normally stored in the gallbladder and released when digesting food to help break it down and absorb nutrients. Without a gallbladder your liver continuously produces bile. This bile can build up and get flushed out painfully, along with some shit. It's yellow in color and doesn't stink like poop. The only thing that helped me was going to a keto diet. Also, never skip breakfast. Eat small meals throughout the day. Good luck anon. No gallbladder also makes it harder to lose weight as your body can mistakenly be in starvation mode even with regular meals.

Riko has the “try everything” mentality. As soon as she got better in the village she got some weird food cause YOLO. Riko canonically have eaten wall (on purpose) and shit (she thought it was some creature egg).

>>280302225
Reg is immune to most things that would wreck a human. He is the one who test food for poison and survived unharmed through the parasite bugs attack.

>>280291249 (OP)
While it is fetishistic, I think that the fanservice and bodily function scenes add a raw, gritty atmosphere to the story. It makes them feel less like characters and more like people.

>>280298284
MiA editor is the greater freak of the two. Tsukushi mentioned how sometimes he would come up with an idea but thinks it should be left for doujinshis and the editor is the one who insisted on incorporating it on the story, in other times the editor is the one who came up with the fucked up shit like the curse. We live in the time where MiA editor push for more extreme stuff instead of neutering it.

>>280298234
Did something happen on twitter to make mia catch the attention of normalfags or something?

>>280297945
Based and artpilled.

artistic appreciation needs the input of the viewer and it certainly doesn't guarantee approval and as such I say decent people just know it isn't right to depict children getting their buttholes licked in any context. if the guy doesn't consider the feelings and mental state of any person who goes through that then yeah, he's a fucking pedo.

>>280327140

Realistically could we make cartridges with modern medicine

>>280330744
Kind of, but not really. You could definitely keep a bunch of organs artificially alive for a long time. But I don't think there is anyone who has succeded in keeping a brain concious outside of the skull.

>>280330744
How do we create souls?

>Will we ever
Depends what the minimum amount of person would be, if it's just half a brain then sure you could probably keep that alive in a cartridge that size one day.
>>280331013

>>280330744
>>280330985
The brain still is connected to the circulatory and nervous system, he just “shaved off” most of the body including a good portion of the skull. You can remove portions of the skull during brain surgery and the patient usually stay awake so the doctor can ask questions and test if they are touching something important. (Poke a portion of the brain and the patient suddenly can’t speak so the doctor know to not cut that) the heart could be downsized by cutting and stitching portions of it or use an artificial pump since the body and blood volume was reduced as well. Most of the lungs can be removed leaving just enough to sustain the biomass but I assume he uses some external means to oxygenate the blood since lungs require movement and a big area, why waste space on every cartridge for that if he can just have a central system for them all? Liver, kidneys and digestory system can be removed, blood will accumulate toxins but he can literally flush the cartridge by inserting sterile saline and removing the liquid (actually would require more ions than just sodium) what is left would be brain (that could be reduced as well), stem, a reduced circulatory system and some way to oxygenate the blood/remove toxins/insert nutrients/hormones. He basically peeled the loli and removed anything not immediately vital. This is kinda like a head transplant where they keep the head alive on an external circulatory system and instead of stitching to another body they just removed more of the head.

>>280331497
This is yuri

>>280331583
There's also the element of abyssal bullshit. He's not bound by ethics *OR* IRL restrictions. For all we know Bondrewd could have just found a relic that oxygenates blood and been like, "Welp, we know where that's going."

>>280331777
Including a pic to keep this post on-topic, but... I don't believe that. Deadass I think they'd just never tell anybody if they pulled it off but that what they did with that dog's head is doable with people. I think progress on that scientific front continued in the dark. Bioethics and laws are one thing, actual plausibility is another. Like I straight-up think someone somewhere has done it illegally by now.
If we're talking about a cartridge it might even be *more* doable insofar as you're leaving more than a head. My only hangup is that he didn't bother to include any bone or marrow, but aren't the cartridges supposed to only exist for a limited amount of time anyway? I can't imagine he has these in his closet for years waiting to use them. Bondrewd probably runs through them at a rate consistent enough that "slowly dying" is good enough for a cartridge since he's gonna use it as a curse decoy anyway.

>>280331777
In 1925, Sergei Brukhonenko demonstrated the autojektor to the Second Congress of Russian Pathologists in Moscow, where the device kept a dog's head alive for an hour and 40 minutes, while it displayed various reflexes. The next year he presented further research to the Second Congress of Soviet Physiologists in Leningrad.

>>280326159
Tsukushi would be expected to have an advanced medical knowledge or to collaborate with a doctor to create such a scene.

Finally, the romantic thread between Reg and Riko is worth appreciating.

They are expirienced delvers, they know how dangerous arifacts can be, they meet some talking artifact that can be dangerous. So what? Force him to fight seriously xD Ozen barely killed herself, then her friends daughter and at the end Reg. Its like finding a ww2 mine, and plaing football with it. They should have been killed at first or second layer with that approach.

>>280331887
They have tried to do several head transplants in Italy at this point. All of which resulted rejection and death.

>>280332283
Firstly, cartdrige inst a transplantation, Bondrewd does not use stranger tissue so its feasible with pure real world medicine or even less

>>280332359
No, but the heads are pretty brain dead when attached, and that's the point. They can't keep the head concious

>>280332283
imo he could have far worse problem, he doesnt seem to keep his experiments top secret, so if the surface found it out, not only children supply would be cut, but also they could start a war, knowing how unethical and dangerous he is

I kinda just wonder how the world of MIA views children. They're obviously not "protected" the way they are here if they've got them cave-raiding to begin with, but it's really not like they don't give a shit.
I wonder about Belchero herself sometimes, too. How big of a bitch can this lady really be? She has the whole Cruella Deville vibe and she's strict, but like, dude, she runs an orphanage. I feel like she might actually be an okay person. But then again, the relics turn a profit. But then again, the money keeps the orphanage going. But then again, wasn't she a delver herself? Maybe it's not even about the money for her.
Jiruo for-sure is just a good person who has a soft spot for kids. You can see it with how he talks to the orphans in his care.
I feel like they might care more than we give them credit for.

>>280330503
So not only was it a low quality adaptation but it also effectively killed the manga? Thank goodness Tsukushi is lucky and has a thick skin. He happened to get a passionate anime team and doesn't buckle under the weight of who knows how many more faggots have given him flak than what the Mahoako author has received.

It’s not harmful — every country has its own customs.
>we send these kids off to cave dive for fucking Indiana Jones artifacts and they are routinely attacked by literal monsters
That crimson spitjaw was said to be extremely rare on the first layer, where Riko was attacked.
>Marulk goes and gets the Subterranean Bandits when Ozen is whooping up on Reg and Riko (clearly feels safe going to get other adults to help, implication that they really would save Reg and Riko if they were in actual danger)
Reg has a fucking armor-piercing cannon that managed to break through the Iruburu wall — something even Faputa and Gaburoon couldn’t do. It killed one of Bondrewd’s strongest bodies and blew a massive hole in his bunker.
They were absolutely in serious danger.

I know, that they didn't give a shit, and some evil people can even know about thet the children sent down dont return.
But IMO, if those rumors spread more widely, there would definitely be a reaction — not just out of ethical concern, but also out of fear that this Bondrewd could eventually become a major threat to the other islands.

That seems likely, too. Competing nations have an interest in the Abyss, right? Isn't that why cave raiders from enemy nations get into beefs down there? Insofar as there is a geopolitical element to what happens in the abyss you're probably right.

>>280332443
What you call "ethics" only really became a thing sometime after WW2. In MiA's level of civilization, no one cares what someone does with a bunch of orphans as long as he pays for them, and he can easily pay for them with extra excavated relics (the outside world uses them to wage war between themselves, not against Orth)

Yes, but they can recognise this as a danger for themselfs. Psychopathic, mad but genius sciencist with access to the deep abyss relicts, and a lot of time because of time dilation phenomenon and age-immortality poses a tremendous danger to everyone else.
Imo there shouldnt be any negotiation so he couldn't evacuate his instantions and relicts, but attack without warning using our full power available to kill him and then keep an eye to ensure he didnt hide somewhere to rebuld his power later.

I refuse to believe that the really close skinship between Riko and Reg isn't forshadowing of a slowly blooming romance between them. They share a very close bond that's way closer than your average boy and girl relationship, they both express an innocent sexual fascination each other at least once, and even after Riko noticed Reg's erection in the bath and realized that he's a real boy, she still felt comfortable enough around him to give him a close hug from behind, even though they were both completely naked together.

Riko x Reg is absolutely canon. I get the appeal of the Faputa ship, but she just comes off as a romantic rival to me. Ever since Reg his memories, he's always been way more closely bonded to Riko than to Faputa.

>>280334270

Actually it's always one anon who wants to see a running MiA thread but can't create a general because he understands that it's wrong

Before I get into this series I wanna know how far into the story is the manga at currently? Over 50% done? Any estimates on how many more years it might run?

>>280335038
>Over 50% done?
According to the author - yes, but you will have to wait at least 5 years for the end, that's for sure

>>280334024
I don't understand how she'd have the balls to release what she did initially only to freeze up when she gained a new following of people who don't even follow her original source material. But I guess the curse of weak female artist constitution can strike at any moment.

>>280335038
It's not even a question of progress, it's just production rate. The volumes are spread really far apart and take a long time. That said, our party's probably somewhere like 70% of the way through their journey already, assuming there isn't stuff we don't know about.

>>280335038
They are pretty deep, so imo about 75% done

>>280335038
Haven't they reached the final layer yet or am I wrong?

>>280333562
that wasn't me but the teacher falls for her too

We dont know if its a final layer, how big it is and what is at the bottom

Incidentally?
Etrian Odyssey games never end on the "final layer" of the dungeon. There is always, ALWAYS one additional dungeon stratum.
Just saying.

Anyone else think of Reg as being massive femdom bait? I literally cannot imagine Reg being the top in basically any sexual situation. He's way too much of a sensitive softy. Riko and Nanachi would run rings around him.

I'm glad Tsukushi doesn't have that kind of autism
Like we know about the vague hierarchy of whistles but he doesn't go into detail about their politics or organisational structure

>>280349522
Leaves room for speculation and discussion which is nice. The conversations about those lore details are always so interesting to me when they come about naturally.

And often times authors filling in all those blanks and telling people everything can be far less interesting than the theories people come up with.

>>280349635
Because there's no good answer.
It's fun to share dumb theories about abyss bureaucracy among fans, but if the author makes it canon then it becomes just dumb.

>>280351473
I think he does discuss this kind of things with the editor but the story is told mostly from a child POV and I doubt Riko know much about politics

>>280352867
He (almost) always has answers for stuff any time people ask him lore questions in Q&As or at panels or events. Sometimes he'll even just say stuff during his streams or post relevant lore trivia on twitter while the anime episodes are airing. The world of the abyss is fleshed out to a greater extent than any of us can probably imagine. But the majority of information that is inconsequential to the context of the main story is all in Tsukushis head.

Bondrewd has a list of crimes that make Lincoln Sternn look like a jaywalker, and one of them is still described as "something horrible he did overseas". You'd have to be completely insane to fuck with what amounts to a mad scientist technolich who treks the abyss for funsies.

>>280357338
Not exactly the same but I enjoy how Dungeon Meshi have well fleshed world, the protagonist is a intelligent dumbass obsessed with the monsters like Riko is obsessed with the Abyss. Monsters are animals that behave like they do for survival instead of just being foes for the heroes to kill.

>>280357338
I'm always in a search for something similar thanks to his abysmal update schedule but none hits the same spot. Maybe try playing pokemon mystery dungeon.

>>280357338
You'll never find any exact match. That just comes with any piece of good art. Personally, in terms of the overall vibes and emotions I had reading it, Shoulder-a-Coffin Kuro is the closest I've read. But if you put more emphasis on the hard fantasy or body horror elements, that would probably not apply to you.

>>280332082
You could keep it hooked on antibiotics. It wouldn’t work long term but it can keep it “fresh” a little longer. But yeah, the implication is that those are made for immediate use

>>280332111
We have head transplants now and it is similar except now we hook the head to another body instead of an external life support device. The general idea is feasible, any minor issues can be dismissed by using relics that could do what we can’t. Ozen have a relic capable of reviving a piece of meat without organs or head.

>>280359365
>any minor issues can be dismissed by using relics
Cool, but thst kind of defeat the purpose of the original question. Don't you think?

In 1965, Robert J. White did a series of experiments in which he attempted to graft only the vascular system of isolated dog brains onto existing dogs, to learn how to manage this challenge. He monitored brain activity with EEG and also monitored metabolism, and showed that he could maintain high levels of brain activity and metabolism by avoiding any break in the blood supply. The animals survived between 6 hours and 2 days. In 1970, he did four experiments in which he cut the head off of a monkey and connected the blood vessels of another monkey head to it; he did not attempt to connect the nervous systems. White used deep hypothermia to protect the brains during the times when they were cut off from blood during procedure. The recipient bodies had to be kept alive with mechanical ventilation and drugs to stimulate the heart. The grafted heads were able to function - the eyes tracked moving objects and it could chew and swallow. There were problems with the grafting of blood vessels that led to blood clots forming, and White used high doses of immunosuppressive drugs that had severe side effects; the animals died between 6 hours and 3 days after the heads were engrafted.

that's because the author has a smell fetish. he even sold perfume scented like the characters. riko shits in the elevator and they talk about it. they describe in detail what nanachi smells like because she used to be stinky but the gift of the abyss transformed her and now she isn't smelly anymore. he isn't doing it to include the mundane, he's just got a weird smell thing. hell one of the characters in iruburu is made of smell

>>280361797
>But Srajo's team managed to defeat him
Read it again, they stole shit and ran away. Bondrewd only asked them to let him experiment of their crew, he got one to experiment and now he is returning him.
>Riko's team tied the fight
Riko team killed two bodies and stopped fighting because that is what Prushka wanted. Reg went unconscious and Bondrewd could have killed them if he was just actually trying to do that. The time Riko gang killed the first body he just praised them while they did it and after completing Prushka he neutralized them in seconds while being careful to not cause any lasting damage. Not saying he is invincible but he is way more powerful than you give him credit. Many attempts to capture or kill him have been made already and apparently none of the other white whistles like him.

When is Srajo equipping the plague doctor mask and starts shoving kids into ovens?

>>280362472
But that's the point. There's not a preset place that is gated behind other places at this point. It could be the last layer. It's not like in One Piece where they are at Elbaf and then must go to Lodestar and then get to go to Laugh Tale. Sure, the story was like that early on because they had to pass through various layers to get down, but now he could write them getting there very quickly. The number of hanging plot threads is not large.

>>280357338

Because it's fucking mundane and boring. We all know how it works. It needs no explaining or expanding upon. It isn't interesting.

With just the lineart, even if the page is full of white, you can at least tell apart the characters. From the sketch / storyboard, you can't make out anything.

>>280372744
>t-they... they just can't okay?!?

>>280374701
Ok, still no info on another 20+ pages.

>>280357338
Not exactly the same feeling but Dokudoku Morimori have a mysterious magical world with cute aesthetics contrasting with a dark story

Nice fedora dude! Nice projection of blame onto "Abrahamics" for your own misunderstanding and failure of women. Lol touch grass

I pooped, but I didn't have gas for the first time until I was 23

>>280362231
That's cause it is. That's all it is. It's "we have DBZ at home"

Whata

is the world flat

Some people prefer not to see a black person

The guild knows about him experimenting on children, they don't care, his discoveries are too useful for them to fight him over something like this.

>>280383019
Wow you actually made me laugh for a change

he is not attracted to female secondary sexual characteristics

I remember that, I've been here for far too long but I don't want to get off Mr. Bone's wild ride just yet

What do you think he's planning by telling us the nuggets have a limited lifespan?

>>280383916
me either

>>280385887
To have them expire at an inopertune time and make me cry

>>280386666
>expire at an inopportune time
think they'll have a tears in rain speech?

I can't wait until the few remaining normalfags get to meet them.

>>280386847
there's so much of bathtime that likely to get cut from the anime.

>>280291490
ok, time to watch this anime.

>>280386939
If you're watching just for the freaky stuff the manga tends to show it in better detail, just an FYI. But the anime is really good too.

>>280385528
Woah, it's just as unfunny as it was 2 years ago

Need albino faputa and gyaru riko

>>280386741
They very well could, Tsukushi is talented enough to pull it off

>>280386883
Bath time is super easy to censor. They're already covered in lather.

There was a non-canon one in one of the anthologies.

I didn't realize it until now, but the one who did it is the mangaka of ponytail shota.

>>280390491
He is too powerful

>>280385887
I think that is when we will find out why Srajo have so many whistles, why she seemed to have so much knowledge on souls and why Faputa is unease around her. My theory is that she collects and store souls since from what she knows letting souls without a vessel means final death but for Faputa that must be some evil unnatural thing keeping souls trapped unable to return to the abyss. Like a portable hell.

>>280391335
ESL-sama...

>>280390618
Ponytail shota's mangaka and Tsukushi are seemingly pretty good friends, I even heard romours thst he was working on getting ponytail shota adapted like he did for his other mangaka friends

>>280383019
Isn't she indigenous though? MiA gives me America/Pacific island feels

>>280392017
She's definitely more pacific islander, but she's technically not native to the island.
It's probably most similar to the maori on New Zealand

>>280392050
>but she's technically not native to the island.
Her mother was a native of the island.

>>280392155
Her people replaced another population, per the UN definition that makes them unable to be natives. Though she is brown, so maybe they'd make an ecxeption like they do with inuits

>>280392017
she's not black. it's anime. dark skinned people are okinawan

>>280392534
Autism.

>>280392624
Half of my family are from Okinawa, they are just tanned due to living in a tropical island. Anime not set in Japan tend to have more people from other races and Orth is specifically not the equivalent of Japan, rice is an imported good and their culture seems more European. It probably is a pacific island with heavy European colonization due to the profitability of the abyss. But closer to fictional Japan and fictional Russia than fictional Europe thus Japanese and Slavic names also rice imports and recipes similar to Japanese ones. The tribe found in the abyss seems to be loosely based on Polynesian, likely some people who arrived there long ago but didn’t experience as much time time passage than the outside world due to the time dilatation and likely got wiped out in the last cycle.

Untrue, he hasn't faked cancer, threatened people with firearms, killed his 18 year old grilfriend, or made a documentary to make people feel bad for him

>>280393901
Also, he's not overweight

>>280392010
>using his connections to help his shotacon buddies
Unimaginably based if true.

>>280394790
We'll, the others he has helped are actually quite mixed. Looking up to magical girls and annoying senpai don't have a lot of shota in them

>>280394907
He is an open-minded person after all, it doesn't make much difference to him what gender the child is if it looks androgynous enough

>>280291417
If you don't like the author or the style why not fuck off instead of complaining about it pearl clutching retard.

>>280291417
Literally like all of the top mangaka are pedos, retard.

>>280396024
Because pearl clutching gets replies

But only if this thread hits bump limit

>>280291490
There's nothing to imply the toilet is sentient

>>280401010
If something is considered a villager, which toilet-kun is, it is sentient.

>>280402306
Name just one thing the toilet has done to show it is still a sentient lifeform

>>280402389
It performs cunnilingus on riko when given the opportunity.

>>280402389
The toilet must be assumed sentient until proven otherwise. This is the ethical position.

>>280402389
>>280402532
And it eats. Not just Rikos poo, but also hugs.

>>280402653

I’m phone posting at work..

>>280401010
Tsukushi said so. Simple as

Srajo is the hottest Made in Abyss girl.

>>280402765
Nisha

>>280402389
Real answer is that as a villager, Toilet-kun is one of two things. Either a person who made it down to the village and offered themselves up to Iruburu to gain a body which would better fulfill their deepest desire of eating ass.

Or, a being like Maa-san and many others who came into being due to the excess value and desires that Ganja accumulated in order to sustain the village. And like Maa-san and her fellow value-apparitions, Toilet-kin might possess limited ability to or entierly lack the ability to communicate, however these beings are very clearly sentient.

>>280402765
No that's Mitty

>>280400958

>>280291285
all this to justify some fatty jerking off to a little girl taking a shit btw.

>>280404799

>>280404887
>sees a little girl pooping
>starts thinking about fat old men in sexual setting
gross

>>280402973
Toilet-kun is definitely a scatfag former delver. It makes too much sense to be anything else.

I love hugging scenes.

>>280362544
>he even sold perfume scented like the characters
This is a decently common form of merchandising even for non-smellfag manga. The most recent one I remember is elusive samurai.

>>280315843
Imagine being that creature...

>>280406176
Did they sell bottles of boysmell? If I'm not mistaken, that is something MiA hasn't done yet. No essence of Regu.

>>280406312
Yep. It was Tokiyuki and Yorishige.

>>280406312
I can't imagine who would want to smell like Reg, considering he smells just like hay as far as I remember.

>>280406469
I'm not a shotafag but this is the second time this show has come up in conversation in the last few days. Is it worth watching it? Looks really well made.

>>280406729
speedy shota is really fun

>>280406729
I am a shotafag, so I'm biased. But I do think it's good. It's very different from MiA, though. It is definitely shounen.
>Looks really well made.
It is for the most part. There are however a few parts they clearly struggled with, particularly anything with horses.

>>280406987
>particularly anything with horses
I've basically made my peace with the inescapable CGI horse at this point. And I don't necessarily mind shonen stuff so long as it's not mindless battle bullshit or drawn out for the sake of itself.

>>280407214
>so long as it's not mindless battle bullshit or drawn out for the sake of itself
It's not either of those. It's from the same mangaka as AssClass. I don't think he could do a forever battle shounen if he tried.
