Blame!, the story of a guy with a fancy gun wandering the wastes of a dystopian sci-fi future, is my favourite manga of all time.
Having been teased as a TV commercial inside the world of the anime adaptation of another of Nihei’s works, Knights of Sidonia, Blame! now has a trailer and full announcement of its own.
So it’s exciting to see Tsutomu Nihei’s tale finally get the movie treatment it’s long deserved.
Nimei will be serving as “creative consultant” on the project, while Polygon Pictures and Hiroyuki Seshita (both from Knights of Sidonia) will be animating and directing respectively.
