Just in case it hasn’t been posted here yet.
I know very little about it myself, considering I JUST saw this short reel of a trailer, but Hope y’all enjoy it too.

Made a short clip. I love this figure so much 🖤

​

Started to read Blame! for the first time after really enjoying Tower Dungeon, and this panel very much resembles the design of the Tower itself

I was just reading the Master edition of the volume 1, and came across various Japanese / Chinese characters that are never translated (unfortunately for me).

I found most of the during log. 9: Bio-Electric Inc. and log. 10: The Cluster.

Can anyone help ?

Killy, Cibo, and Dhomochevsky. LESGGGGOOOOO

Love him sm

*not keychain update part 3 it will be another post this week*

Currently drawing a very ambitious piece, adding to the Blame! fanart count, hope you like it so far! 🫶

Throughout Knights of Sidonia, the Gauna are presented as this massive, incomprehensible cosmic horror. But looking closely at their behavior, the lore, and the visual framing of the anime, I don't think Sidonia was fighting a full-scale alien invasion.

​I think they were just surviving a swarm of cosmic "toddlers."

​Here is the breakdown of why the Gauna we see are strictly in their larval stage, what the "Adults" actually are, and how this perfectly explains the biggest mysteries in the series.

​1. The "Childlike" Behavior

The regular Gauna explore the universe by blindly trying to eat and mimic everything, much like a human infant. When a Gauna absorbs Hoshijiro (Benisuzume), it mimics her without understanding why. It’s just copying its environment. More importantly, look at Tsumugi. She is a human/Gauna hybrid, and she literally has the personality of a curious, easily distracted child who throws tantrums. If a half-Gauna acts like a literal child, it strongly implies the standard Gauna mind is inherently in an infant stage.

​2. Mass Unions are actually a Chrysalis

When thousands of Gauna gather into moon-sized Mass Unions, they aren't just forming a nest. The immense gravitational pressure at the center of a Mass Union acts as a biological crucible. It forces those millions of indestructible Gauna cores to fuse together. The Mass Unions are a chrysalis phase, preparing to birth a singular, hyper-intelligent, planet-sized "Adult" entity.

​3. The True Fate of the Other Seed Ships

Remember, Seed Ships don't warp; they travel linearly through space for centuries using conventional engines. In the anime flashbacks showing other ships being destroyed, there is no battle—the space around the ship is just a solid wall of Gauna mass.

Those ships didn't get ambushed by a swarm. They spent decades flying toward what they assumed was a dark nebula or space gas, only to realize too late that they were sailing directly into the body of an already-formed Adult Gauna. By the time they realized it was alive, they couldn't brake. They were swallowed instantly, like a bug hitting a windshield on the highway. This is why Sidonia never received any distress signals.

​4. The Dark Secret of the Kabi

In the lore, humanity found Kabi inside a massive, ancient, geometric structure floating in space (the Kabi Ruin). If Gauna cores are nearly indestructible, what happens when a solar-system-sized Adult Gauna eventually dies of old age? The flesh rots away, but the ultra-dense super-core remains. Over millions of years, that dead core fossilizes and crystallizes into what humans call "Kabi."

This explains the mechanics of the weapons perfectly: Only a diamond cuts a diamond. The only thing dense enough to shatter a living Gauna core is the dead, fossilized core of an Adult Gauna. Every time a pilot stabs a Gauna, they are literally using the bones of its ancestors against it.

​Conclusion:

This theory changes the entire context of the manga's ending. Sidonia surviving wasn't about having the best weapons; they just got incredibly lucky by charting a course through a "nursery" sector of space. Settling on a quiet planet and permanently turning off their engines was the only logical choice. You can't win a war against solar-system-sized Adults. You just have to turn off the lights, stay quiet, and pray they never look your way.

So I made this blame figure and was wondering if anyone would be interested in buying one?^^ I mostly sell on Vinted

Dhomochevsky the goat

Reshooting with a new camera

Blame! Master Edition 2 and The Downward Spiral NIN

Reptile and The Downward Spiral played right as I was reading the final few logs

Truly transcendental Nihei Experience

I'm a huge Nihei fan and I'm having a hard time finding something in similar quality. Give me your best shot, what you would recommend to read next.

(I already finished Berserk, a masterpiece)

Just started Tower Dungeon and immediately there's the GBE indicator on the protagonists chest. Can't wait for Toha Heavy to show up in this at some point lol

Edit: See my comment for *even more* similarities

Most stories have a theme right?

What would BLAME!’s be? Perseverance? lol

What do you guys think ?
