man i love blame so much. is there anything else like it? the bleak atmosphere and how life is disregarded is just awesome.
i want nihei to reboot it. i know it ended up but in terms of setting sidonia and biomega don't hold a candle to the Netsphere conflict, especially with how rooted its origins are to earth and how it has parallels to current concepts (digitizing life and Dyson sphering the solar system). im not saying those stories didn't have caveats which made them great in their own right, but i didn't feel like it was a good transition from blame. i still feel a hunger for that desolate transition through floors, wondering how many centuries passed on and how many times each person dies and reboots obtaining little by little access to data that they download to obtain more stable weaponry, that is, the silicon being essentially cobbled components of the tech killy can use due to his pre-netsphere crash access to such resources and being a proper format of all those elements, still appearing human and such. it's just a fascinating struggle, not to advance humanity, but to regain their roots, no matter how entangled it became.
sorry if this constitutes blogging out, i just wanted to say what i thought about the story. i guess i wanna see who else has similar thoughts about its resolution and if they have a similar hunger for more.
also i feel that while a lot of the art is guilty of greebling, aka overdetailing what's essentially useless or meaningless cabling/structures i think it added depth and reality to what the scale was. killy probably never even thought about 0.1% of the structures he encountered, even though they may have implemented technology beyond even Toha Heavy Industries or the Structural Conversion Towers. Speaking of which how does Toha compare to those towers in terms of tech? i know Cibo remarked how they had a machine which would make any form of matter, but does the conversion tower not have the same abilities while being open Netsphere tech? it seems odd that she'd be impressed by what's essentially more limiting since the machine had to be fixed, although that doesn't take into account how it could make matter without a person being a safeguard, controoller, or silicon cyborg; it had a control port of some sort which basic implanting could perhaps allow one to utilize. in any case its exhibit of tech was impressive, but the City seemed to have a ton of things like the Stability Axis tower in that Jupiter void, although im not sure what the cyborg meant when he said "it stabilized the contents filling the void" since that would imply that Jupiter was unstable. i guess extracting it would require such a thing? Worthy or not of inquiry, it caught my eye with not just scale which most people quote, but the way the technology was about unilateral control of the jovian planet.
Curious as to whether or not this was written on drugs, but I'll ignore that question for now.
>im not saying those stories didn't have caveats which made them great in their own right, but i didn't feel like it was a good transition from blame. i still feel a hunger for that desolate transition through floors ...
Then, now you know and understand how most loyal Nihei fans felt in reading Sidonia and Aposimz.
>not sure what the cyborg meant when he said "it stabilized the contents filling the void"
The Jupiter area was used as a storage space for materials intended for use in continuing the building of The City, but it is long-defunct. Presumably, the Silicon just meant that it organized the distribution by some method.

what made you think i was on drug? also was the axis tower used for that stability? im confused why he was so interested in how it functioned given that it should be beneath his technological understanding of things.
What did I just read? Is the OP legit from outer space, or just crazy?
