About the series
In the far future, a lone wanderer named Killy traverses an endlessly sprawling, city-like megastructure in search of a human with the "Net Terminal Gene," a key to controlling the automated systems that have gone rogue. Written and illustrated by Tsutomu Nihei, this ten-issue series from Kōdansha (1998–2003) is a landmark of cyberpunk and post-apocalyptic manga, renowned for its vast, silent, and hauntingly beautiful architectural landscapes. Nihei's distinctive, minimalist storytelling and dense, atmospheric art create a world where scale itself becomes a character, making Blame! a seminal work for fans of bleak, contemplative science fiction.
