My rating is for the story in its entirety. This last volume is really amazing. It wraps up the ending and finally through all the dread, the never ending journey Killy faced along the way, he finally reaches the end and Nihei allows the readers to finally have hope in the story. No, the story isn't meant to be deeply understood, it is a beautiful story that focuses on loneliness and existence. Words are not needed, the artwork is beautiful like always in the last installment. I sometimes want to just go into Nihei's mind and see what he sees, interpret what he interprets.
The Story of "BLAME!" Is a masterpiece of all kinds. Killy is an interesting character.
After finishing this story, please check out NOiSE. It is the prequel to this story and is only 8 chapters. It goes into how the Netspere even became what it is in BLAME. It occurs thousands of years before, and the last part shows Killy before he became what he was. And then I recommend reading the BlameĀ² chapters (Blame squared), there are 2 chapters in this, and it gives the final conclusion to the story we needed.
Overall, this is a masterpiece in writing and one of the greatest pieces of storytelling I have ever experienced. Nihei speaks through art, not through words. Admire the beauty, don't think too hard about it.
