Zenzirouj posted:So all we know is that Sidonia sent their new ship to gently caress around near a star for some reason, right? We have no idea why they shot at the thing or why it turned into a mass union or why pretty much anything is happening? Right now they're fighting the small Mass Union Ship because it was in their way. As to their mission at the star, Kobayashi is willing to blow up a planet in order to flush out one or two Gauna, how far do you think she would go to hurt that Mass Union Ship (the big one)?

Wookie Bouquet posted:But in all seriousness, adding new characters this far along makes me feel like there are no plans to end the series anytime soon. After reading through this series in a day, I decided to check out some of Nihei's other stuff. It seems like he has a tendency to radically alter the tone, art, and even story halfway through a series before eventually going completely off the rails insane (Ex: Biomega, Abara). I think he just gets bored of drawing the same thing but with bigger enemies and decides to experiment. Hopefully the structure of Sidonia with the story alternating between robot/monster fights and slice of life episodes will help him stay focused in the long run.

Sydnesider posted:You wonder how much of Sidonia Ochiai is going to destroy now since there is no working counter to the 'superstructure'. Can't see Kobayashi surviving, Ochiai's going to want some revenge for 100 years imprisonment. Last time he was just going to leave sidonia. He threw away their kabi so that they couldn't chase him down and kill him and because he believed the gauna were attacking sidonia to try and get the kabi. Then his chimera malfunctioned/went berserk and gauna attacked sidonia and everything went to hell.

Pierson posted:New chapter and some poo poo is going down. kinda disappointed we didn't get a shot of what the inside of the hull looks like after they shot through it to get at Ochiai. Poor box is getting some abuse. And Chimera-Ochiai looks badass. When they mentioned the second Graviton Beam Emitter I knew exactly what was going to happen, with a GBE the definition of "Line of Sight" becomes rather malleable.

That doesn't seem too far fetched, given the power creep in the series so far.

Wookie Bouquet posted:Also what is the deal with the new introducing new characters. Feels like we have a larger cast than all of Nihei's earlier works combined (at least on the protagonist side). Redshirts are people too.

Everything Burrito posted:I wish this was a full show. Want to see 25 eps of Killy blowing holes in poo poo and having zero personality. It would be pretty cheap to make, no need for voice actors, scripts, or set designers: just Killy wandering through an endless procedural generated megastructure firing the GBE at random intervals.

Ytlaya posted:Dorohedoro owns and is possibly the best sci-fi/fantasy manga I've ever read. The setting is just extremely unique and the cast of characters is great. Dorohedoro is bizarre and fantastic and I love each and every character except for the one guy that you're supposed to hate. Everyone else is either amusingly amoral or entertainingly evil, everyone has goals and motivations and people that they care about. The "bad" guys are selflessly loyal to each other and even the comically evil Devils are always a riot.

If they can temporarily clear out the Guana in the system, they can build a shitload of GBEs and solar power collectors.

Kanos posted:If Ochiai was willing to just gently caress off and not gently caress with Sidonia they probably would have let him go be a transhumanist hybrid demigod for as long as he wanted. He tended to plan for the long term, and was probably worried about Sidonia's descendents surpassing him thousands of years in the future and threatening his immortality. Or he's just a jerk.

Ytlaya posted:Yeah, the reason everyone hates him is that his experiments somehow (forget how exactly) resulted in drawing Gauna to Sidonia, killing off most of its population. He thought the Gauna were chasing the Kabi, or that the Kabi could be used to kill his chimera, so he threw them off the ship. One Gauna didn't take the bait, attacked the defenseless Sidonia and killed all but 500 people in the few minutes it took Tanikaze 1.0 to kill Ochiai and retrieve the Kabi. Xy Hapu posted:I have to wonder what his ultimate plan even is. Become the greatest evolution of humanity, pat self on back, then . . . float endlessly and alone through space? He would have made a clone to pat himself on the back.

I wonder how that kid is going to turn out, considering that her father is some kind of immortal and her mother is technically made out of placenta. Isn't that how chimeras are made?

Zenzirouj posted:Wasn't the whole mini-ocean on the front half of Sidonia that got clobbered off? Are they just eating guana-bits on this planet? Maybe they had seeds and junk stashed somewhere else. They're pretty good at cloning.

If you read BLAME! and thought to yourself, "This is great but it would make a lot more sense if there was an android and a bear jumping a motorcycle off the roof of an exploding gothic cathedral" then you're gonna love Biomega.
