A main trailer for Made in Abyss: Mezameru Shinpi has been released. The new content includes footage of cave raiders Tepaste (Sumire Morohoshi) and Cravagli (Takanori Hoshino), the latter having a Black Whistle, and a part of the theme song “Chain of the Abyss” by Kevin Penkin feat. Mori Calliope.
Made in Abyss: Mezameru Shinpi is the first entry in a new series of Made in Abyss theatrical anime, which serves as the follow up to the original 2017 TV series, 2020’s Made in Abyss: Dawn of the Deep Soul anime movie, and the 2022 second season Made In Abyss: The Golden City of the Scorching Sun. The anime are based on the Takeshobo-published dark fantasy adventure manga by Akihito Tsukushi, with Seven Seas Entertainment describing the manga’s synopsis as such:
In an age when the corners of the world have been scoured for their secrets, only one place remains unexplored–a massive cave system known as the Abyss. Those who traverse its endless pits and labyrinth-like tunnels are known as Cave Raiders. A young orphan named Riko dreams of following in her mother’s footsteps as a Cave Raider, and when she meets a strange robot when exploring the Abyss, she’s one step closer to achieving her goal!
The Made in Abyss manga debuted in 2012 and will get its 15th volume on August 26, 2026. It is currently serialized in Take Comic.
Made in Abyss: Mezameru Shinpi debuts in Japanese theaters on October 23.
