Why is the main character drawn so fucking shitty compared to the environment in the manga? It kinda ruins the experience for me

It's nihei's first major work. He was an architecture student.
>>157930674
Nhei improved a lot during the process of making Blame!
Even Volume 2 is a lot better already.
>>157930674
I like his vol. 1 baggy clothes more than his later jumpsuits
>>157930674
Killy is retarded old. He's only being kept alive by nanomachines. He's very slowly losing normal human shape through repeated major regenerations.

>>157930784
I see. That kinda explains it.
>>157932664
Is his other works any good?
>>157932664
so the high point was around 2003-2004

I really liked Noise and Abara. Still working through Biomega.
>>157932842
biomega was a let down. Started somewhat interesting...then halfway through it was like nihei suddenly decided 'eh fuck this shit'.
>>157930674
Agreed. My dream would be the old environments + the new design he used for the rerelease covers.

>new design he used for the rerelease covers.
those look like complete ass, everyone looks like they've been stuffing their face with those goofy food bars killy carries around. fat headed fat hamster cheeked fat fucks.
>>157933378
the halfway point is where biomega gets interesting

Everything but Knights of Shidonia is good, and SnK is still easily in the top 10% of manga.
Why does the theme song sing "Shidonia?"
Does Japanese not have the "Si" syllable?
Reminder that Nihei's art style is entirely a choice of style.

Yup. Japanese goes :
sa, shi, su, se, so
ta, chi, tsu, te, to
ha, hi, fu, he, ho
