Hiroyuki Seshita (Ajin), who previously co-directed the anime adaptation of Nihei’s Knights of Sidonia manga series, is directing the film at Polygon Pictures.
HTC announced on Friday that shops that will demo its HTC Vive VR equipment beginning on Sunday will include a demonstration based on Tsutomu Nihei’s Blame! manga.
The film itself is also inspiring a manga adaptation by artist Kōtarō Sekine (Ninja Slayer Kills) that debuted on April 26.
A list of shops that will have demos for the HTC Vive on Sunday is listed in HTC’s site.
