Wow, what a break after reading that Hunter x Hunter drivel.

The art is marvelous. This manga reminds me strongly of A Fairytale for a Demon Lord, except without the walls of text. This is a good thing. Confusing ending, but evokes some thought without being pretentious.

Need to read more stuff by this author...

 

Don't understand what you mean by the HxH comment. Just started this after reading a bit of his "popular" work, Sidonia as I'm interested with the influence of this, especially the Gauna part I'm sure.

YES! A classic! As always with Tsutomu Nihei, there's a powerful thought evoking storyline with barely enough text to fill a thimble!

More like barely enough text to INFER a powerful thought evoking storyline.

art was amazing as always in nihei's work
Hmm rehosted a fixed version of ch.6 ?
o_O... Dafuq
...well the ending was a bit confusing...
Still remember the time when I read Blame! Halfway I forgot what the storyline was about,but still the sensation I had while reading it is unique. That is the way cyberpunk should be-incomprehensible,yet mysteriously charming.
OK....
It has fabulous art and atmosphere, but there really isn't a story. If you're looking for a story, you're going to end up scratching your head.
yep, a good short manga
nice u guys like it
