Riko's Sighting of the 2000-year Sakawatari | Made in Abyss | 4K

From S1 EP.2. Riko observes the Hammerbeak bird, but an unexpected fella interrupts her birdwatching. As quoted from the Made in Abyss Wiki, the "Sakawatari" (サカワタリ) "is the largest bird inhabiting the Abyss and was described in murals and legends before its existence was confirmed when it appeared near the surface in recent years." "In ascent, the Sakawatari closes its eyes. It twists its body to gain speed and ascend several hundreds of meters in one flap of the wings. Its nest is believed to be located deeper than the 7th layer, but it travels as far as the surface to hunt for food..." "Murals and legends claim it appears once every 2000 years, and it is believed that the end of the cycle is approaching. On the murals, it is rumoured to be the very same creature from the circle 2000 years ago." Video quality enhanced with Topaz Video Enhance AI
