Let us talk... I got the 6 Master Edition volumes for my birthday last month. Just finished reading it all. I think I liked it very much, I've never really read anything like it before. I have some questions and I would like to talk about it with you anons
Questions from me: Why is the level 9 so important? What I came to understand is that the sphere from the level 9 came to contain an embryo with the Net Terminal gene. Why does a level 9 safeguard have an embryo with the Net Terminal Gene? Is this explained anywhere else?
Sanakan mentions that the Embryo is hers and Cibo's child? Why Sanakan's as well? Is this maybe not because it is literally Sanakan's child as well, but because she and Cibo has wandered for so long now that she sees the embryo as her actual child that she wants to protect like a real parent would?
Also, where do I go from here? I want to read more of Nihei's work, which should I look into?
In the second to last chapter they did mention that the child was conceived of the d.n.a. of both Sanako and Cibo — I read it a decade back so I'm a bit fuzzy on some of the other details.

Redpill me on Sidonia.
Chase James
Literal self-insert protagonist who gets a harem.
Nihei apparently talks about having to make such concessions to feed himself.
Blame is seminal and highly critically acclaimed and has none of the common faults like exposition or self-insert protagonists, but it actually did not sell that well, and that is, one assumes, why these faults exist.

Been a while since I read it but let me try. >level 9 Like most things in blame! it's not explained anywhere afaik. My headcanon is that it was an emergency backup that got forgotten amidst the growing chaos
>Sanakan Yes
>where do I go from here Nihei made a one-shot sequel to Blame! which is worth a read. There's also Biomega which feels very similar. Knights of Sidonia starts off similar, but ends up as a harem. Make of that what you will
Also, Blame! Academy, and so on has goth loli Sanakan teacher, which looks very good. It's not really explained why a teacher would be in full goth loli attire, but I take it.
What's different about the Master Edition compared to other versions? Just the Kyrii name change and higher-quality art?
Isaiah Moore
Texnholize
Landon Bennett
Master is a reprint. The only downsides (for me personally) are how grey it looks compared to the harsh blacks of the old versions, and also there are some questionable redraws.
Ayden Martinez
Why was Blame and Killy the best of Nihei guys?
I want more.
Aaron Rogers
The embryo was made with Cibo and Seu genes Level 9 Safeguard was deployed when Davine Lu tried to access the Netsphere
I can't believe it Zig Forums but I finally scored a nice clean job at Toha Heavy Industries. My life is pretty much set from now on I'll be enjoying maximum comfyness and ease.
Cameron Martin
I don't think it's quite enigmatic enough for Blame. I imagine a Blame soundtrack would be more in line with some sort of weird droning black metal noise

>are how grey it looks compared to the harsh blacks of the old versions Some anons here have said that's how it was supposed to be and that former ones were just contrast fucked.
5+ AU sized megastructure will collapse in on itself as a star. There's no indication the material it's made out of is massless for it to be otherwise.
Cameron Russell
am i the only person who genuinely likes his most recent manga
Good work user, BLAME! is the best manga of all time. >Also, where do I go from here? I want to read more of Nihei's work, which should I look into? Take a bit of a break and then read Biomega.
Leo Moore
Interesting read.
Brandon Bell
Their canon mastery of gravity tech makes that portion of physics essentially irrelevant.
Where can I read the Blame one-shot sequels anons?
Jason Watson
MangaSee has them.
Dylan Bailey
Do you think that the Sun is sitting somewhere in one of the City's megastructures?
Hunter Bennett
I think the Sun is basically being used as a giant battery, so yes. What I doubt still exists is Earth or any of the inner planets, I'm almost certain they were rendered down for materials.
