Synopsis of the Anime Made in Abyss Ido Front Arc, Prushka's Sacrifice

Kapanlagi.com - The anime Made in Abyss Ido Front Arc tells the journey of Riko, Reg, and Nanachi arriving at Ido Front, the deepest research outpost in Layer 5 of the Abyss, which is controlled by Bondrewd, an eccentric White Whistle obsessed with understanding the secrets of the Abyss.

This location is at the bottom of the Sea of Corpses, where the Curse of the Abyss causes the loss of senses and sanity when ascending, making it the starting point for the Last Dive to the sixth layer.

Bondrewd welcomes them warmly but soon reveals the cartridge, his creation that can transfer the burden of the Curse to human victims.

1. Synopsis

Bondrewd tests Reg's strength through a fierce battle using the Incinerator weapon, proving the robot's superiority over his troops. Behind the friendly facade, Bondrewd has sacrificed many orphaned lives for his experiments, including creating an anti-Curse medicine.

Prushka, a young girl who admires Bondrewd as a father, secretly befriends Riko and leaks the secret of the special cartridge.

Nanachi recognizes Ido Front as the place of her horrific past experiments, where she and Mitty were transformed into Narehate after ascending from the Miniature Garden of Dawn.

Bondrewd reveals his vision of "Dawn" to them: sacrifices for the advancement of humanity to conquer the Abyss, even at the cost of countless souls. Tension rises as Riko refuses to join, triggering a direct confrontation.

Prushka is caught helping Riko and is punished by being placed into the Blessing artifact, transforming her into a flower-shaped Zoaholic core super cartridge.

Riko and Reg storm Bondrewd's facility, facing the Umbra Hands forces controlled by Zoaholic. An epic battle erupts, with Reg exhausted after fighting the fearless Bondrewd clones.
