I've watched made in abyss, while there are a few moments that are just uncomfortable and inappropriate, the series itself doesn't fully lean into the "loli" trope. sexualization of child characters is weird but its not the core focus of the story still weird though
>Infrequent nondescript/nonsexual nudity. Riko is sometimes seen partially nude after changing/bathing with her hair covering her chest. Since she is a child, this is presented in a very innocent fashion, though in one scene two characters do get embarrassed by her nakedness.
>It is implied in one scene that a young boy becomes aroused sharing a bath with a girl; she notices his erection and asks "What's with your penis?". He gets embarrassed; nothing is seen and the subject is quickly dropped.
>At one point, a girl describes her physical examination of a boy in detail. Including that she couldn't see inside his anus, probing him with a measuring stick (which broke), and stating his penis and testicles looked and felt like a real one, even noting the elasticity of his foreskin. This is meant to be comical and nothing whatsoever is shown.
>As punishment, students are stripped completely naked. Their arms and legs are tied behind their backs, suspending them least 3 to 4 feet off the ground. This is used on Riko early on in the series. Her breasts are covered by her hair.
>After a girl gets vomit all over her clothes, and she faints, a boy takes off her clothes to clean them. Her chest is covered by her hair. When the girl wakes up, the boy is embarrassed, but the girl is unblushing.
>A disturbing scene at the beginning of season 2 implies a young child is repeatedly raped.
>Characters frequently go to the bathroom. The main character, Riko, in particular, is shown using the restroom several times. These scenes include flatulence noises. There is no nudity. Just her squatting over a toilet.**
>In the second season, some monsters lure a girl into a dark alley, where they begin to fondle her under her clothes and undress her. They stare at her with longing and breathe heavily. It's a fairly disturbing scene. It's unclear whether they want to sexually violate her or consume her. In the manga, it felt more like they want to eat her. In the anime, it feels more sexual.
>An adult man fully examines a young boy's body against his will. This includes examining the boy's penis and testicles. This upsets the boy and makes the man laugh when he finds out the boy is upset.
>A girl has a detailed drawing of naked boy in her notebook, including the anatomy of his penis and testicles. She eagerly shows this to numerous characters, causing the boy to blush profusely in embarrassment.
>In season 2, there is a "monkey's paw" scene where a little girl wishes to become a mother, but instead constantly gives birth to dead, deformed creatures. Extremely disturbing.
>Diarrhea plays a key point throughout the series. This includes showing people having diarrhea and their fecal matter being examined.
>A man carves an item that is linked to the soul of a little girl. He claims that the experience was sensual, and that he achieved climax from the experience.
>The second season is extraordinarily violent, featuring graphic scenes of murder. The carnage is taken to another level in the second season. It is highly disturbing.
>In the second season, non-human characters voluntarily feed themselves to one of the main protagonists and the protagonist is seen tearing them apart.
>In one of the most infamous scenes of the show, a young girl is seen bleeding from all of her orifices. This includes her eyes, mouth, arm, etc. She tells a young boy to cut off her arm in order to relieve her pain; we see him break the bone to make the process easier, which causes her to cry out in pain. He then begins to attempt to cut her arm off with a small knife. However, they are stopped before he fully cuts off her arm.
>A young girl is seen undergoing horrific changes as her body suffers from the curse. She changes into a grotesque creature; her final words are "Please...kill me..."
>A small creature is violently harmed to the point that one of their eyes pops out of its socket and they suffer from a rectal prolapse. The character survives.
Btw I understand the point of a "horror" show, but it's only the Japanese that make weird freaky shit just featuring little kids or lolicon/shotacon furries. It's a uniquely Japanese mental problem.
** I complained about this with Grave of the FireFlies where the little girl gets sick and instead of any illness imaginable in a post-war japan it's specifically a UTI where she pees constantly throughout the movie. I was told this was NOT Japanese mental illness but instead a realistic depiction. However, even in the few shows I've watched, Japanese people love to have on-screen child urination.
