BLAME! Academy and So On

Welcome to BLAME! Academy and So On, a spinoff set in the same sprawling "City" as Tsutomu Nihei’s science-fiction manga classic, BLAME! This volume features a parody and comedy starring various characters from the main storyline placed in a traditional Japanese school environment. Key elements of the original series are humorously parodied, including the relationships between Killy and Cibo, and Dhomochevsky and Iko. This collection consists of diverse works ranging from comedic school parodies to vital expansions of the BLAME! universe. It includes "Zeb-noid," a millennia-spanning bloody war where two soldiers set out to kill each other in an encounter that could change their species' fate forever; multiple installments of "Blame Gakuen!" exploring the school setting; "Kozutsumi," the story of a man looking for his brother; and "Netsphere Engineer," a sequel to BLAME! following a Dismantler who aids mankind's survival against the Safeguard. Further included are "Pump"; "BLAME!²," which follows a descendant and young silicon creature of Pcell long after the original events as she seeks out Killy at the end of the megastructure; "Numa no Kami"; and "Senshi Kouchuu Suzumega."
