Made in Abyss: Dawn of the Deep Soul
This film is the direct bridge between the first and second seasons of Made in Abyss, so it is essential viewing rather than a side story. HIDIVE and Hulu carry it. Across its 105-minute runtime, the adventure pushes fully into horror as the expedition reaches the fifth layer and encounters Bondrewd. The beautiful setting and cute character designs make the cruelty feel even harsher, but the film does not rely on shock alone. Its conflict grows from Nanachi's history and the cost of continuing downward. Watch it if you want fantasy exploration with psychological pressure and can handle disturbing material. Skip it for now if you have not finished the first season, since the story expects you to know the travelers and their journey.
About
Riko, Reg, and Nanachi continue their descent until they reach the Sea of Corpses on the Abyss's fifth layer. The final human outpost before the point of no return stands in their path, overseen by the White Whistle Bondrewd. His courteous welcome cannot erase Nanachi's memories of what happened there. To move onward, the group must confront the experiments tied to the outpost and decide what they are prepared to endure for the journey below. The premise keeps the mystery of the deeper Abyss intact while placing the immediate danger in plain sight.

Seasons & Watch Order
Finish the first TV season, then watch Dawn of the Deep Soul before beginning the second season. The movie resumes the same journey and supplies story developments the follow-up season assumes you have seen, which makes it a poor starting point for newcomers.
