Anymore... :l

Blame or should I say Balam?

*stupid voice* "Uh, excuse me, it's pronounced Balaam after the sound of the gun."

No one gives a sh*t. Shut- Shut up

But the movie came out, and I make movie reviews right now. That's right (OK)

I made a video talking about my favourite manga blam, blaam.

F*ck.

So... I'm gonna try and not, eh

Repeat too much of what I said.

But basically there's another anime movie adaptation.*Whoa* Out on Netflix. Anime movie adaptation. Out on Netflix. Thank you Netflix

Anime movie adaptation. Out on Netflix. Thank you Netflix

Thank you, Netflix *holy music plays*

(EAR RAPE) For nothing! Thank You Netflix for making me embarrassed

For liking my favorite piece of art, and also thank you Netflix

for making what was already a mess of adaptations, into an even further, so, we have "Blame!" the original

and we have "Blame! and so on" which is like

Aeh... Well, I guess we explain a little bit more

We didn't tell you that much did we and then we have a "Blame!" the anime which people really view as something in high regards

Just as this review

"I have never rated anything 1 out of 10 until I encountered Bla..." Great!

Do you see what I'm going here is it's already so confusing what Blame! is because there's already these different adaptations everywhere

that are so goddamn bad when the original one is a masterpiece. We have blam the prologue

what in the fuck is I never even heard of this and then we have blam the special what and that's pretty much it just

Kidding, there's also the prequel, which is actually pretty good the prequel was alright and now

Thank you. We have blam the shitty movie. Just kidding. We also have blam

Denki Ryoushi Kiken Kaisou Dasshutsu Sakusen which is a remake?

And apparently the movies made as an adaptation of the remake, what in the what is what?

Why ah oh and also did I mention they all share the same universe as other animes like Knights of Cydonia?

Now this is not confusing at all. It's even confusing why this movie exists to begin with because

blam is not very popular

It was written in

1994 it's it's the kind of thing where either you love it

Or you hate it, and those kind of things doesn't really translate well into into it other adaptations

at least it doesn't have a good track record of it the reason why it's a movie is because Netflix owned the

original series of night of Cydonia which was made by the same creator as blam. Knights of Cydonia

Don't get me wrong. It's not bad, but it's basically

I don't want to be too harsh, but it's basically the sell-out version of blame

It's not a bad anime by any means, but if you compare the two of them. It's goddamn awful

If I compare them, I would say integrity and no integrity it's like how can we make something really really popular, okay?

Well, let's have what's popular. Oh, yeah, mecha

Okay, what else do people like they like to see?

Sexy underwear and boobies okay, that's that and okay. I don't know how to explain it

Okay, the story of blam the simple synopsis took me

So goddamn long to figure out it was you're thrown into this universe in the manga, and you have to figure out yourself

What is going on what the heck is happening and?

understanding, but the movie starts and

It just tells you

nobody really knows

When the world became this way the contagion suddenly started and

Humans lost the power to connect with the city the city continued to expand on its own in humans

We're seen as

illegal residents

and exterminated

It's like if you worked your whole day to get an ice-cream

And then all the sudden everyone just gets ice creams for free

That's how I would this is a terrible way to compare obviously they have to explain. What is happening. It's a one-hour

46 minute movie But, I don't know just watching it

I'm nah- the main plot of blame is

that the guy needs to find net terminal genes so he can connect to the net sphere that which will shut down all the

robots that has been ruining the planet for years and just kept building and building and building and

fighting against them the net sphere is sort of like a

reincarnation of the Internet in a in a futuristic way the main reason I find them to be it such a

Masterpiece is because it doesn't try and tell you a story

It puts you in the universe and you're you are left to figure it out yourself now admittedly

The writer Tsutomu Nihei

Isn't a good storyteller, and he's basically just avoiding explaining anything. There's very little logic behind anything and

It sort of makes it open for interpretation you see this in a lot of movies and

Stories where it's so vague that

You have to fill it in yourself

And it almost makes it like I feel like it's a basic human instinct that if we were not told

Everything of something we want to fill that ourselves

We fill it with what we think makes sense and therefore we value it higher than what it is

Which might make you question "Was it even that great to begin with then?"

But uuh let's not talk about that

now Blame takes place in

Such a long time

That time

becomes irrelevant

If you look at the whole universe ok, let's say, this is the time of the universe and

This is the time

We've existed as human beings ok, what if we stretched out that time super duper long

Huh then you can tell a story

During a small period and then jump ahead

and it wouldn't really make that much of a difference as opposed to if you'd have it this much and

and then like we are now-

This isn't making any sense. Oh my god

I'm trying

I'm no Neil deGrasse Tyson, okay, but so if you have like a really small time

And then you jump a lot you will be like whoa what happened here

But since we have such a long amount of time passing we can jump

It makes time irrelevant and there's such a long time placing

Going through the anime

and there's so many different events and

Different interesting things that you could make the movie out of. What did they pick the movie to make about?

This goddamn fisherman village!

Why the heck would you make it about these fishermen it doesn't make any sense at all it's the most

Uninteresting piece of the whole universe I don't care about those people

Who the heck are they I don't even know

What about making it when he meets Dhomochevsky? What about when Devine try to enter the net sphere?

Anything would be goddamn more important

than this stupid fisherman now a lot of people criticize the

this type of movie because of the CGI is made by polygon pictures and

I really like this type of style. I think it looks great in Knights of Cydonia. It just doesn't fit Blame! because Blame!, it's

so grungy and

The style is so heavy, but here it's the sort of way too plain

I really think I would have preferred to see this in a traditional drawn anime style even though

Typically I I'm not opposed to CGI in anime which probably most people don't agree with look how neat and polished it looks

Compared to like the manga it just falls so flat a classic a reoccurring theme that I find with a lot of re

Remakes and re-adaptations is that they don't seem to understand what made it good?

There's this bit where she takes off her helmet for kilee the main character, and oh there you go cute little blushy

Blushing cheeks. Oh look at that little tears in her eyes so dramatic. Oh, she's blushing for kilee

Oh, that's so cute. No. No it's fucking not

It's not cute Blame! has absolutely no romance in it and it's an adult manga that doesn't go overboard with the gore

And there's no sexual tension

Or a reference. There's no as much as a lot of anime tits there's none of it in blam

But then you go and have like

Some romance aspects of this and it's just kinda like

Why why, would you why. lets just re-change this video to angry swedish rants about anime this is so stupid

I don't know why I even care

But it just it's like if you're gonna make a remake at least respect and understand

What made the original good ok major spoiler coming up just look away the way they introduced her is here

They show her right away the introduction of Cibo is one of my favorite parts of

Favorite introduction of any character in any anime ain't any manga here. Here they introduced her. They show her right away

Look I'm Cibo. Oh great now

we know this is how Cibo is introduced in the manga ok she's this disgusting thing that he founds in the sewer and

She's and you didn't even know the gender but basically she's like oh

I've been here for a long time I, I, I, need your help. I promise. I'm a big deal ok

I've been here for a thousand of, for thousands of years. Yeah, I can help you out. If you help me out ok

I promise I'm a big deal

I'm a scientist ok I'm a scholar in the most perfect moment Cibo appears and bam

She's a strong independent woman ok

She's got her own body back again and look at that super cool

And you're like whoa she's actually not a disgusting homeless person, and its dope it's dope to find that out, but here

They're like. Oh, I'm Cibo. Oh great now from this point onward. I'm pretty lost in the movie

they basically reduced the

Story from we need to save humanity, to these people need some food because they are hungry

It's about to break down the

gravitational beam emitter

And you're like hell yeah. The most powerful weapon in the universe

It's basically. The, the, the

the gun version of the one punch man this thing will blow through anything

That's the point of the gun it's a huge part of the story.

It's almost like a character on its own. The Blame! is not Blame! without the gun. It's even in the name

You know this thing will blast through anything. That's why it's so cool. Oh, I can't wait for him to finally shoot that bitch

oh never mind she can just block it. What do you mean she can block it!? what you ruined it

You ruined it. You ruined it for me

I don't get it the thing about the gun is that it can pull it through anything. That's how he gets past

Certain levels in the manga you can't just stop

you can't just

You can't just do that the reason why I love Blame! so much is because it's not your traditional

Sci-fi it doesn't have all the spaceship flying into space

*pew pew noises*

All that Hollywood sci-fi bullshit it has this raw take over this dystopian future

And it doesn't just try and tell a story it even brings in philosophical thoughts, and I always saw that as a merge of

reality

internet and

Religion sort of into one idea that in the future in Blame! you have the net sphere which is basically

like reincarnation of

The Internet in a futuristic set and it sort of blends the idea of religion and

Internet in a really funny and weird way what if we created our own heaven you know and

because all the bad guys try to sneak into the net sphere and

That's sort of their goal and the rest of the people outside of the net sphere tries to connect to it as well!

But they lo- long lost access to it so it almost like we turned

Ourselves the planet our own planet into hell and we made our own heaven

Which is the net sphere the internet, connecting to the internet? I don't know this is how I interpret it and I'm sure

Most people probably wouldn't even be like what the fuck are you're saying, but that's what I really like about Blame!

Is that you can it's open for interpretation, and it's fun to do that read the manga. It's really great and

I'll stop talking about Blame! now. Thank you for listening to my

angry anime rant and!
