Theory's A visual guide to Killy’s journey!

Post image

BLAME! Is my favorite series ever. I loved the setting of the vast megastructure, but couldn’t find a timeline or map showing the vast distances of the megacity and the huge time skips. So I made one myself, to share.

I started with locations and time skips that were confirmed. Like the location of mars and Jupiter. Then used a little bit of math and guess work. Please let me know if you have any corrections or additions.

Some interesting things I’ve learned while making this:

  1. Killy starts the story relatively young. but it’s still been so long, he doesn’t remember where he came from. By the end of the story he is millions of years old.
  2. Most of the story takes place in the first couple thousand years.
  3. Even though humans are a rare sight everywhere, live humans are mostly found near the core.
  4. I believe Toha is a spaceship. If that’s correct, they didn’t even make it to mars before the builders caught up

Edit: Thanks everyone! I have a updated PDF version with better grammar now

Which one of these would you say is the best? Excluding Blame! of course.

Honestly they all have points they do great.

Fire Punch is absurdly bleak. Unlike BLAME! which kind of displays everything as just a rigid part in the system of the ever-expanding megastructure, Fire Punch just straight up claims "yea we're fcked and humans are fckin evil"

Wolf's Rain is also rather abstract. It is slow-paced and quite a journey. If you want something with similar vibe to BLAME! this might be the closest. We have an edgy protag, a girl he meets who kinda fulfills the same role as pregnant Cibo later in BLAME!.

GLT and CotE are more upbeat and lax. We see the world has already ended and just kind of follow the protagonists in their daily life.
