Ah yes. The manga that motivated me to draw architecture and urban landscape in the first place.

I would have sex with his landscapes if I could.

"When I finished Blame, my parents and friends told me they didn't understand anything. So I tried to make something simpler with Biomega. When I showed them they said they didn't understand anything again. So I made Sidonia, and when I showed them they said "yeah, it's a bit more clear, but I didn't really understand well."

I have the impression Nihei thinks nobody ever read his stuff outside of Japan (and his relatives). That's really fucking sad
Nathaniel Evans
Always upsets me
no one really bought his stuff outside Japan, though
and the Japs have terminally shit taste
Hudson Kelly
I'm definitely going to reread Sidonia soon
or replay NaissancE
Ryan Harris
Play rain world instead, captures the vibe and sense of scale really well

>no one really bought his stuff outside Japan, though

But was there any prints at this moment outside of japan ?
Blame! hit the french shelves with this horrible inverted print and I'm pretty sure the scans all originated from here before the recent release of the new edition. So I'm not sure most country got it at the moment of the initial release (and probably at the moment when inverted prints started to be frowned upon)
Benjamin Sanders
been thinking about Rainworld as well, I've heard great things about it
Noah Sullivan
Yes I will, since it's been over 15 years since last time and I've completely forgotten everything about it.
Wyatt Nguyen
Yeah, there were some prints, but it still kinda remained a niche title, and Nihei didn't really get a chance to see the effects of that popularity, if there was any
He was super suprised that Netflix decided to fund the Blame! movie, for example
Bentley Mitchell
Is the movie worth watching? From the screencaps I've seen it doesn't look good at all
Noah Davis
no
Isaac Foster
Thought so
Jack Martin
I probably could, it's been 4 years at this point and I don't remember anything
Dylan James
It really ruins the mystic and atmosphere of Blame!
Because they explain everything in a big old exposition dump in the first five minutes
and they also added moe electrofishers
and focused the whole story on the electrofishers
and a lot of other shit
oddly enough I found a few physical DVD copies of it at my local big box media store
Andrew Howard
Story and characters were shit
The backgrounds were nice tho
Christian Jackson
Well, Sidonia no Kishi was made for more "normal" people.
Landon Smith
soul
cringe
Nihei should just fuck his daughters into submission instead of catering to their wishes, he is japanese for FUCKS SAKE
Alexander Evans
Why are there two different versions of this panel. Is the lighter one from the master editions?
Ryder Ramirez
Yes
Luke Cook
Wh
Why
Michael Sullivan
Since Sidonia movie was announced, I hope for BLAME sequel or Aposimz for porn
Connor Gomez
>ywn read Blame! again
of course not, read and discard like any other nihei work
Daniel Fisher
>smoogs handholding
It's gonna be shit, isn't it? Though I guess if they at least do an original ending, it could be less utterly terrible than the second half of the manga.
Chase Wright
Sidonia was so shit it didn't deserve such good mech designs
Michael Gomez
Tsumugi is best girl and you all can eat cock. I would like to see manga ending when Sidonia was relevant. Imagine the state of Zig Forums
Carter Stewart
The first half was pretty good, though I didn't like how harem-y it got after smoogy joined. I guess I had the wrong expectations, but I wish Hoshijiro had returned in some way, since it was implied that Benijiro was slowly regaining memories of the original. Then she was just thrown out for the second half until smoogs needed an asspull to be saved.
That said, just watched the teaser and it sounds like a lot of smoogsfapping. Though the title intrigues me a bit.
>Aitsumugihoshi
Maybe they'll actually do something involving Hoshijiro's memories, but I won't hold my breath.
youtu.be
It was retarded and I felt bad for the other girls' fags. For me the main issue was that Benijiro was just used as a backup body for Smoogs after being left to rot for half the manga despite the earlier hints about her memories.
Jacob Long
I think so.
Juan Walker
I quite liked it, but I haven't read the manga, so I'm purely judging it on its own merits.
