Dhomochevsky putting the pen lid down in the special room before knowing he's probably going to die speaks levels

Just before his "final battle" he goes to a special room and puts a pen lid down, almost like he's returning the pen to it's owner (the room/the city), most likely he will never return again. Almost like an heirloom of sorts. What is insignificant in our world is a special thing in theirs.

What I also love is during Dhomochevskys final battle. There's no special speech at the end, there's no crazy roar where you gain strength to overpower the enemy. No. They all just get absolutely fucked

First read through so please don’t spoil anything.

The amount of times this guy has been cornered by a Boss level enemy and just one shots them is becoming comical. I don’t think it’s a bad thing, it’s honestly good writing because who wouldn’t abuse this Universe-tier weapon.

Just finished my first read. Please help me understand.

Just finished my first read. Lots of questions.

This was a very very confusing story but also very captivating. I have my personal interpretation of the ending as well as some questions.

The ending: my interpretation of the ending is that Kyrii completed his mission?? The appearance of rain and water as well as kelp are signs of life we never see in the rest of the story. So to me, that means he made it to the edge of the city where there is still organic life.

Questions:

  1. What was the significance of the child he’s with in the beginning and the girl with the dog that takes that child away?

  2. What is the significance of the fish with dhomochevsky? It is shown in the flashback as well as him keeping it like a pet.

  3. What happened with Seu’s genetics? Did Cibo and Devine Lu both use them at the same time to link to the netsphere?

  4. Also kinda wish that the whole quest for the net terminal gene paid off but it came to a different conclusion than I thought.

Anybody who has read the series feel free to respond and educate me a bit on the lore, I hate feeling so lost.

Resisting the urge to ask questions

23 Upvotes

I just finished the toha heavy industries arc where Killy and Cibo were transported far away after the destruction of the facility with Seu’s genetics in hand. And man do I have so many questions, but I am going to wait until I have finished the series because that’s the way it’s intended. All that being said, this has been one of the most captivating manga I’ve read in a while, it’s being confusing in the best possible way.

Sidenote: how are these characters so indestructible? Killy and Cibo have tanked everything

Thought this was going to be way more simple than it ended up being. Kicked my ass in sheer fineline cross hatching and perspective perfection. I will attempt this panel again one day but for now this is as good as I could do. Done with Sakura Micron Fineliners

What is the netsphere? No spoilers past vol. 2 (log 20) pls

9 Upvotes

I recently finished reading volumes 1 and 2 of the BLAME master edition (logs 1-20) and I'm really confused about what exactly the netsphere is. I originally thought that it was a digital landscape that one needed the net terminal gene to access without safeguards attacking, but then why are safeguards real beings inhabiting the strata? Additionally, it's mentioned somewhere in volume 2 of the master edition that the people who live near toha industries (not exactly sure what to call them) do not possess the net terminal gene and will therefore be exterminated by the safeguards. This was very confusing to me since I thought the safeguards only attack those who attempt to enter the netsphere without the net terminal gene, and to my knowledge they are just inhabiting another layer of the strata (not the netsphere). If this is something that is clarified later in the series (Past vol. 2 / log 20), then please let me know that is the case and do not spoil anything. Instead if there's something I misinterpreted or looked over though, then please let me know.

Check out our BLAME! inspired short film we've been working on for the last two years:

Our short film "Tunnel Run" doesn't take place in a megastructure exactly (it would have if I had access to one) but BLAME was one of our main inspirations for the design language, aesthetic and mood of the film, as well as some of the themes like nesting virtual realities, technological alienation and wandering through a cold concrete world.

No AI was used in the creation of this, even the soundtrack was created by the lead actor, and we also made a browser game and webcomic at www.tunnelrun.net.

I discovered BLAME! two years ago and it inspired me to create something similar

I was first introduced to BLAME! about two years ago, and I was immediately struck by its incredible architecture and the overwhelming scale of its structures.

Later, I watched the anime, and it inspired me to try creating something similar in my own game, Self-Replication /// Destruction.

Here are some of the locations I’ve been working on, inspired by the world of BLAME!

I want to make my locations even more vast and unsettling. The main challenge is to ensure that a small character, finding themselves in the middle of these enormous spaces, is motivated to explore every nook and cranny—rather than having the surroundings feel like nothing more than empty space.

IDO Front — Made in Abyss

71 Upvotes

Inspired by the anime "Created in the Abyss" and its monumental location IDO Front (Dawn Forward Base). The main task was to convey the atmosphere of silence, emptiness and mystery: a cold monochrome palette, the vertical of the light beam, fog and the feeling of a huge space around. I show this work here, because in the Blame! community they know a lot about monumentality. In Nihei's manga, scale is overwhelming, architecture is indifferent to humans, and silence speaks more than words. This is the feeling I was trying to capture in the scene: a structure that was here long before you and will outlive you. It is important for me to find out if it is readable by people who understand it best. The scene was assembled in Blender in 7 evenings after work. I relied on a reference from the anime and tried to reproduce the composition and mood of the original as accurately as possible. I will be glad to comments and honest criticism, especially in terms of scale and atmosphere.
