Anon's I just found this, I dont know how far behind I am but is this true ? Am I really looking at what It says I am ? or just another (VERY WELL MADE) fake.
>>146616503
Yes, it's real. But I wish it wasn't.
>cgi
do only visual novels with sentence-for-title and moeshit get 2d adaptations these days?
>>146619556
Yes. Anime is dead. It will only get worse.
Th-thanks netflix
>BLAME! movie telling story of some unimportant Killy adventure in 14 fps
I was waiting for this since I've read the manga 9 years ago
WOW
Is this original? Who is the semen demon?
>>146620133
read the fucking manga, though i doubt you will like it
>>146616503
>BLAM!
I thought it was an English title.
>>146616503
Is this a prequel? I don't remember this at all.
So netflix are going to animate all of the nihei's works?
>>146620401
Blam! would be correct title, since it's the sound Killy's gun makes
>>146620241
I did you pleb. It's been centuries though, she doesn't look like the one from the group they meet.
>>146620642
If they can't translate the title properly then they should had made the gun sound-effects go "BLAME! BLAME! BLAME!"
>>146622116
The Blame Gun. It shoots accusations at you.
>>146620928
Neo-Niher redesigned her into a moeblob. Also, as far as we know, story is changed too.
>>146616503
I wish the girl wasn't so cute.
>>146622152
>Killy
>human
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO YOU BUNCH OF LORE RAPING RETARDS
>>146616503
>longest thing they show is some moeblob character
>>146616503
>cgi
It's fake, none of it is real. Don't believe with your eyes but see with your heart.
>>146619556
As meh as I am on CGI, I don't think there's a better way of doing the safegaurd.
>>146620594
No, polygon is and then Netflix takes credit in the US.
>>146620521
Original story that's loosely based on the manga.
>I'm Killy
>a human
Did he ever say this in the manga?
Can't be too hard to check his ~10 lines, but I'm pretty sure he never referred to himself as such
>>146634283
Well, since de manga's story had so little sense...
>>146634439
I think that in the beginning he dont remember much, so he may think he is a human (?).
I give you that he didn't say it in the manga, but we can forgive it on the animu
>>146634615
I'm not raging mad about it but it was a nice touch in the manga that Killy's nature was ambiguous.
>I'm a human
Those gravity gun shots better be as unsubtle.
>>146634439
He's human. But a cyborg. There's like, only 5-10% of fleshy parts still left in him.
>>146616503
>moeblob
She's cute. What's the big deal? Can't have cute things in something serious?
>>146635482
These are just bunch of tryhard newfags, don't take them seriously
Did you pre-order?
>>146635482
It's just unfaithful to the original art style, I'm not really bothered about it though
>>146634439
I don't think he says it but the group who find him at the beginning mistake him for a normal human I think, and he doesn't realise what he is until his powers awaken again
>>146634929
>it was a nice touch in the manga that Killy's nature was ambiguous
Only in the manga is it ambiguous. In the manga, all we know is that he is from a "pre-Safeguard agency".
From the artbook; from Nihei:
「人間だが、かなり高度にサイボーグ化されている。」
For you not-nerds: "He is human, but has been considerably cyborg-ified."
And I know somebody's going to demand better proof, so here's the raw artbook notes; I've circled it.
>>146634439
Nah I don't think he ever say that. But one can hope that's just a juxtaposition of different dialogs.
Also WTF is that framerate?
>>146635603
30 bucks for one volume? Nope.
>>146635855
It's 2in1, 400 pages hardcover edition
>>146635603
I'm gonna wait to see how the translation reads, as opposed to the Japanese text. Are there any looks inside available on Amazon or anything? Cus if so, that'd help.
If they do any standard American text-ruining modifications like "lol Megastructure = Big Room", then fuck no. If they can actually pass it off as Blame, then I'll probably pick em up.
>>146635887
Oh, then we're talking.
>>146635887
They didn't make a hardback in Japan, did they? At any rate, only volume 1 is 400 pages. The rest are about 320-350.
>>146635840
>art book is $300 minimum + shipping
Should have got this when I had the chance
>Full CGI
dropped before I picked it up. Such a shame they wasted all that potential
>>146635840
Good job anon. I'm convinced.
Why didn't killy have ntg again? Was it because of cyborgification?
>Was he banned?
>>146636102
I see a few on eBay that are around $175-200. If you can afford that, I might go for it. But if you just want to look at the artbook, it's been scanned and uploaded. Here's a link: https://mega.nz/#F!H9oxWYLQ!h0OJjDwSE18AKLMTpxXO4g
>>146635887
It's also pretty big, here my polish copy, tomorrow second volume will arrive
>>146636066
Vol. 2 is 380 from what I remember
>>146636364
It was just a really expensive and rare way to enter the Netsphere, as I remember it. Everybody who didn't have it got murdered by the Safeguards at the end of Noise, and pretty much everybody who *did* have it got murdered by the Silicons.
>>146636650

Too much Ciema
>top taste polishbro
>>146636670
The whole concept of safeguards and the netsphere fuckup is such an evocative backdrop. I mean, a lesser mangaka wouldn't have bothered and just say
>looking 4 mcguffin
>badguys r demons
>it's the future lol
That glimpse of the netsphere was also pretty haunting.
Also: Sanakan a cute. A CUTE
>>146637440
Dhomo is the cutest Blame
>>146637159
This isn't even my final form
>>146638445
Shit.
You really are a man of taste.

>>146638445
Why is English publishing so fucking shit in comparison? Who looks at Abara and goes "nah?"
>>146636102
>300 minimum
holly shit I doged a bullet, got mine for like 90+shipping
>>146638601
how is it even possible, is poland like France a niche market who gets the most out of japan or something ?
>>146638601
A large part of me thinks it has to do with this.
>>146638809
>is poland like France a niche market who gets the most out of japan or something ?
kind of
and a lot of sex/violence related stuff slides in our media
>>146638918
Doesn't Finland have a similar deal? I've always kinda wanted to get a Finnish Nihei release, for the novelty at the least.
>>146638827
Volumes can be shrinkwrapped if there's adult content, like Gantz. There's just a severe case of shit taste among the publishers.
>>146639088
>There's just a severe case of shit taste among the publishers.
Well, I can't deny that. Still, I do find it rather funny that they've done Blame, Biomega and Sidonia now, and just kinda ignored Abara.
Perhaps if the Blame releases sell well enough, they'll do Abara simply to sate the consumers? Who knows. We've been surprised before, I suppose. Maybe we should all write a strongly-worded letter to Vertical about the possibility of publishing Abara. I will.
>>146639415
I know Vertical is aware of /a/. Hell, maybe they're reading this thread. Unfortunately, Abara was outside of the criteria they set for their latest new licensing poll.
>>146639535
>Abara was outside of the criteria they set for their latest new licensing poll
Policy? Elaborate?
>>146635603
What site is this? Looking for a better place to buy than Amazon.
>>146639791
They conducted a survey (that they posted on /a/, by the way) asking for what new properties they should license. The criteria were that the works had to be published within the last 6 years, and had a maximum of 5 or so volumes currently.
>>146638445
>ABARA
>>146639919
That is some fuckin nonsense. Maybe I'll carve "license abara" into my arm and send a pic to them; see if it works. Always worth a try, right?
>>146639796
Bookdepository
If you are not from US change ip to it and your price will be lower than actual one and you still get free delivery
>>146635603
>Kyrii
what the fuck?
>>146641058
Localized pronunciation, probably. His name is spelled "Kirii" in romanized Japanese. Kanji is pic.
>>146629224
That bugged me as well and I don't even remember the plot.
Did they censor Ghost in the Shell in america?
Shit, I thought the thread had died.
Thank you for confirming it for me Anons XD
Im looking forward to this ~
>>146641843
Yes. Batou suddenly being nauseous and the major pissed off makes no sense.

>>146634439
Yes, in the beginning parts before he met sanakan while his memory was fucked. He didn't even know what safeguards were at that point. Also like that other anon said he is a human cyborg.
>>146643432
szanuj aniemnieje i mangesy, bo inaczej whiskas
>>146616503
Are they giving this the Berserk treatment where they tell the whole arc in movies instead of a series?
>>146645455
Nope. It's just an adaptation of the Electro-Fisher arc, for... some reason. I suppose they're the only group/arc in the series that can potentially have enough moe girls to satisfy the autistic community of Japan.
>>146636702
>>146636932
i like mgla
>>146645561
What a shame.
Blame was some tight shit.
>>146645561
Isn't this supose to be a 3 part movie? How the fuck are they going to stretch out a short arc like that? More moe?
>>146634439
Nihei said in an interview that he would be adapting/reworking blame a little bit to make the story clearer.
So, expect more verbal exposition than the manga.
>>146635603
they are re-releasing the blame manga? if so thats great, because the old ones were pretty expensive.
>>146648602
>So, expect more verbal exposition than the manga
Finding everything through hints and cues given by the environment was one of the cooler aspects of the manga. Feels like people need things written out for them in clear blatant detail.
>Nihei gave up on Knights of Sidonia
Still mad about that
>>146638827
Looks like some H.R. giger
>>146649128
I'm not.
>>146649057
Gotta keep that lowest common denominator in mind when producing anything you don't want to lose money on.
>>146649128
It had turned into Harem shit. It needed to die.
