La historia acaba como empezó: con un volumen sin apenas diálogo y aún menos sentido.
La historia comienza muy bien y se mantiene bien, pero al llegar a este último número decae mucho y deja un final demasiado abierto para lo que esperaba
I mean I can’t tell what happened… this whole series could’ve used double the dialog blurbs. It’s stylistic if anything…

This review is for the entire six-issue corpus of Blame! Master Edition.
First, a caveat. The illustrations in Blame! are works of genius. But I am not as fluent in the picture language of manga as I should be so at times I was left a bit befuddled as to the exact goings on. Not so much to harm the story, mind you, but I did have to strain at it from time to time. Hopefully your milage will differ
None of which harmed the story! A grand epic taking place in some futuristic mechanical world/building/structure following the efforts of one man/machine/whatever at first to just get by and then to save humanity? Everything? A single baby? My son turned me on to this and after I finished it and we were discussing he said "I don’t think anyone has the capacity to understand the ending of Blame! but it’s very cool."
You must read it. If you're a true manga fan then you probably already have. If you're not a true manga fan then you might want to start with something a tad more accessible. But maybe not! Dive in. Just don't blame me (see what I did there?) if you don't come out the other side…

this series continues to be wonderfully stark and cold, and incredibly beautiful in design. I love the emptiness of this story, coupled with the desperation of the search for the net terminal gene - it makes my blood run cold, and I love every single page of it.
