The fight scenes are still wasted on me since I can't follow the events. Most of them seem to be secondary to Killy's goal to find net terminal gene samples, so I just ignored them. There's plenty of destruction here, but it feels like all of it just leads to Killy getting a gene sample that may help him in his quest.

The central A.I. wants to teleport Toha Industries outside the city, but Maeve tries to merge with it to save the 8th level humans. Maeve fails, so the few humans that are left use escape pods to survive the destruction of the facility.

Killy and Cibo receive Seu's genetic information from Maeve as a parting gift. They need to find a place where they can analyze the data.

Enquanto a história fica cada vez mais louca, a arte fica cada vez mais absurdamente fantástica.

[Monsour · Rating 4 out of 5]

After the epic fight between killy, seu and the silicon life. Killy once again lost in the never ending search for the net terminal gene. In Vol. 5 & and 6 We get a little bit of answers to the purpose of those cyborgs hunting humans(Silicon Life) and the floating AI? and her/its partner that's been helping the humans of the Cave.



Their is also a mind blowing scenes that shows how powerful technology has become in this world. Were talking about TIME JUMPS, TELEPORTATION, BODY SWAPPING, instant upgrade and etc

In Vol. 5 we finally confronted the AI that's managing the TOHA Heavy Industry.







Also lets take note about this guys name for future references



In Vol.6 The TOHA Heavy Industry gets teleported outside the city (I thought the entire planet is the city). Killy's gets teleported in a different place AND DIFFERENT TIME maybe, This may explain why Cibo has this machine straps on her/it.



Vol. 6 Chapter 36: Beautiful Life

We saw some remnants of this world. A machine that's constantly producing clones almost every minute in the rest of eternity.

indecipherable plot
art so complicated it's hard to even understand whats being depicted
characters are not even clear if real superhuman or changing
one of the best series ive ever read

[Strangerealms · Rating 5 out of 5]

This dark, gritty, alienating, violent cyberpunk manga is really good. The artist Nihei is really gifted to draw buildings and he creates an empty world left with never ending growing buildings, metallic structures, and deadly creatures out to get you. The structures and the Safeguards who were once protecting the population, are now out of control and kill everyone on sight, due to a virus the population was exposed to. Killy is set to find a person whose genes (Net Terminal Genes) are uncorrupted by the virus in order to get back the control over the structures and the Safeguards since only such a person can access the control center. During that time the Silicones, the official bad guys, keep causing troubles and want to stop Killy. Thankfully, Killy is a powerful cyborg and makes friend along the way with Cibo a scientist.

The manga has barely any dialogue, Blame! is the kind of manga where you really have to pay attention to each image and even reread a few times the manga in order to really understand what is going on. I think it is worth it.

This is my review for the whole manga.

No mucho es revelado en estos capítulos. La Inteligencia Artificial Central está dispuesta a teletransportar Industrias Pesadas Toha a otra ubicación. Ivy y Maeve tratarán de impedirlo, mientras Mensab y Sew se ponen del lado de Killy y Cibo. Las vidas de los electropescadores y los colonos están en peligro. Y por encima de todo, sigue la búsqueda incesante de los genes de conexión.

Algunos capítulos son confusos, como es habitual en toda la serie, y dado que no hay muchos diálogos, se hace imprescindible detenerse en los detalles y retroceder algunas páginas de vez en cuando. El arte sigue siendo magnífico, presentándonos un mundo completamente extraordinario y lleno de extrañas criaturas.

[Emperador Nui · Rating 4 out of 5]

Tras el tomo anterior lleno de complejidad argumental, y no por su intrincado guion sino por su clara ausencia de explicación, vuelven de nuevo a la carga con toneladas de acción, añadiendo nuevos elementos que resultan sorpresivos, ya sea por su repentina aparición, sino también por las implicaciones temporales o de génesis que, a esta altura, se espera que terminen más o menos resueltas en capítulos posteriores (spoiler: parece que no vamos a tener esa suerte).

Los combates son frenéticos y algo más variados debido al armamento dispar entre personajes, lo que genera un efecto de frescura que le venía bien a la serie, ya que se estaba abusando de la pistola de gravitones.

[Shin Donghae · Rating 3 out of 5]

Pada jilid ini tidak banyak yang terungkap. Lewat adegan kloning tanpa henti, menunjukkan betapa kelamnya manga ini. Central Artificial Intelligence (yg uniknya dg mudah dikalahkan hha) bersedia untuk memindahkan Toha Heavy Industries ke lokasi lain. Eve dan Maeve mencoba menghentikannya, sementara Meinserve dan Seu berpihak pada Killy dan Cibo. Kehidupan para penduduk gua ke8 dalam bahaya. Dan yang terpenting, pencarian Net Terminal Genes terus berlanjut.

[Calvin Stevick · Rating 5 out of 5]

Some of my favorite art in the series. Ending was cool. Not gonna lie I was kinda confused the whole series (especially since I had long gaps between volumes), but the art was cool as fuck so I low key don’t care.

[Denisa · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another rating: 8/10

[M. Ashraf · Rating 3 out of 5]

It took a turn to crazy land.
Teleportation of the entire Toha Heavy Industry!!
A bit confusing...
But very good artwork!

[Raluca · Rating 5 out of 5]

Less action packed than the others, but still stunning graphically speaking.

[Kurtis Burkhardt · Rating 4 out of 5]

The “Blame!” Series is pretty good, lots of cool action and interesting art but can’t give a 5⭐️because it lacks in the story👍😁❤️

No puedo creer que me leí 4 volúmenes y ni me di cuenta

[Alejandra Rubio · Rating 5 out of 5]

Al menos ya tiene más diálogos.

3.5/5

[Andrew D · Rating 4 out of 5]

Visually brilliant, not a lot of plot but beautiful architecture and expression. A somewhat sterile close to hopeless abstract future.

[Andres Zen'In · Rating 4 out of 5]

Capitulos cortos pero cargados de acción y puntos en la historia revaldores, poco a poco se aclaran más cosas

[Saúl Meza · Rating 5 out of 5]

Nunca creo poder explicar en palabras el sentimiento de soledad, tristeza y pequeñez que me hizo sentir este manga, una completa obra maestra en todo sentido.

[Himanshu Karmacharya · Rating 4 out of 5]

some cool characters are introduced in this volume, and there's a time traveling segment here, that I thought was extremely well done.

[Kittyki · Rating 5 out of 5]

Volt-nincs Toha Nehézipari Vállalat. És folytatódik a szokásos sétafikálás.

Va muy, muy bien.

[Luna Jordan · Rating 2 out of 5]

Repeated review.

Alright, so, I’m just gonna immediately throw this out there. I only rated this series four stars because PewDiePie said he loved this series. Yeah, I was one of those.

In actuality, I fucking hated the artwork. I just did not like it at all. And I just did not care about the story. So, yeah; don’t like things just because a YouTuber or celebrity you like happens to like/love it.

[Nura · Rating 3 out of 5]

rada ga mudeng deh. kenapa central AI-nya segitu mudahnya dikalahin sama Maeve. emang sih si maeve udah dimodifikasi gitu, tapi Mensab aja hebat, masa central malah kalah. walaupu akhirnya mensab juga mati juga. cibo-nya keren, gak mati-mati, udah mo mati masih ada aja yang nolongin. adegan paling serem pas mereka nemuin mesin yg terus bikin kloning perempuan, yang akhirnya dihancurin killy.

[Baal Of · Rating 4 out of 5]

Still liking it. It's still hard to follow sometimes, but maintains the level of weirdness that keeps me interested. The first half of this volume was mostly explosions, which wasn't as interesting, but the second half picked up the story again. The clone interlude was oddly compelling.

[g026r · Rating 2 out of 5]

Nice art, and the overall story remains fine, but you could compress this volume down to 1/6th its size and still not lose any plot.

[Thesexycaptain · Rating 5 out of 5]

Vol.6 of the Captain's favorite manga.

[Abdulaziz Fagih · Rating 1 out of 5]

No story, a lot of strange things happening without explanation don’t waste your time on this manga.
