unrelated:
^ weird, probably another remote art installation. I remember reading something about a stand with an IPOD playing music in the middle of a desert
@AndrasDeak For additional trivia, this one...
was taken from that anime
oddly enough, that made it to the blog
Cesar Manara on January 15, 2020
We had a ton of people participate in Winter Bash this year with 266,000 hats awarded throughout the network. Thank you, everyone! We couldn’t have done it without you.
 
12:02 PM
@AndrasDeak Also, just a clarification. If you plan to view Made in Abyss, do it at your risk.
It is quite sad/disturbing
animation seem cute. But the actual plot.... it is worth of an horror/thriller movie.
And the Anime stops quite soon - only 13 episodes.
The manga gets rapidly worse afterward.
@AndrasDeak are you familiar with Full Metal Alchemist by any chance?

@Derpy ah, I remember that
@Derpy then I'll skip, thanks. Just like Grave of the Fireflies. I've heard enough that I won't watch these. I don't go out of my way for a heartbreak.
@Derpy for once, yes :D
the original anime, to be precise
only watched a few episodes of Brotherhood, and never seen any manga
 
@AndrasDeak nope, Grave of the Fireflies is just sad because it is basically a war story in animated format.
The movie is based on a semi-autobiographic book
Made in Abyss is basically about experiments on living beings.
@AndrasDeak You remember the chimera?
now, try to picture an anime where that even isn't just a very traumatic episode and instead basically the whole plot is like that.
That is Made in Abyss for you.
 
1:46 PM
@Shadow10YearsWizard Should we post this picture in the Tavern and watch people go crazy?
 
@Derpy you can safely put in Tavern, people won't go crazy over something they don't understand. Most likely nobody will even reply. :)
When did you write it?
 
@Shadow10YearsWizard That's the point. It is unclear enough that someone may think this is a wip some staff posted somewhere for this year bash.
@Shadow10YearsWizard Apparently that was 2017. Don't think I even have the script anymore.
 
:(
Where did you find it?
 
@Shadow10YearsWizard the old Sugarcube room
 
oh lol
What made you go through that old, frozen, room?

in Sugarcube Corner on Meta Stack Exchange Chat, Jan 11 '16 at 10:11, by Derpy
@ShadowWizard Honest opinion: do you think that having a set of hats available all year long, already unlocked, just for decoration... would be worth?
@Shadow10YearsWizard just looking back at the pictures that were posted there.
 
2:25 PM
@Derpy of course!
@Derpy heh
 
@AndrasDeak if someone did this picture....
 
2:56 PM
edo...waaaado

4:18 PM
wonder why someone decided to put MLP in genshin, and why this character choice
@AndrasDeak enough to say that usually people would say that the chimera was the lucky one of the two.
 
4:50 PM
@Derpy well the other one looks, uhhh, interesting
 
5:35 PM
I won't ask what you mean, just point out that the poor thing basically looks like your average D&D wall of flesh. more like the bogleech.
And if you really are that curious, the anime is available legally on many platforms, and in some cases even for free.
Just know that it is a whole different kind of sad when compared to things like Grave or even the "dastardly" Tokyo Magnitude 8 (dastardly because it punches you in the stomach right at the end after you though "oh, nice, happy ending")
In this case it is more of a "rage sadness", meaning you probably would want to take the responsible for some events and toss them into the lowest layers of the "Abyss" that gives the name to the show.
If you like something more melancholic but cozy in a strange way, The Girl From The Other Side is probably a better choice
this one
also the one that I suggested @shadow should change his avatar to.
