Do you know that feeling when you don’t have an adventurous personality but still seek the adventurous anime all the time? Yeah… that’s me.
I am not sure why I’m so reluctant when it comes to leaving my comfort zone – whether it’s about traveling to a foreign country or not accepting any challenges, I just want to live my life safely… despite it being boring many times as a direct consequence.
I am just scared to try new stuff. And I believe I’m not alone by no means. Despite being very cautious and keeping myself in my comfort zone for the most time, I do enjoy adventurous anime.
Adventurous anime is giving us, the people with a lack of excitement in our lives something that we seek. By identifying with characters of some quality anime we can experience what these characters experience to some extent and hence, we also share and feel the excitement.

great article! cant wait to see more
thank you <3
I’m so stoked for Made in Abyss!!
Me too… I wish it got a new season instead of a movie though 🙁
Very much agree, a new season would give so much time to explore more of the world, both deeper into the Abyss and beyond in the world above, I reckon
I was binge watching Made in Abyss like crazy so idk why they opted for a movie..
I felt like it was a huge success too. Makes me sad tbh.
I’d love another run after the film yeah, I was glued to the screen for season one! I think that first season only covered half the manga too… so maybe there’s a chance?
