BLAME! Master Edition 0: NOiSE

I accidentally ordered this thinking it was in english but I decided to keep it since there are currently no plans to release vol 0 in English. Also this hardback version is very well made and fits into my collection nicely

This manga is in german, but before you skip, hold on, because much like the rest of the series, it is pretty light on dialogue and is told so well through the imagery that you can get a sense of what is going on. As there is no plan to release this with an english translation, this may be your best bet. While yes, this is a pre-quel that does not feature kyrii (or killy as some translations call him) it does indeed contain the literal manga piece that started the series, the one that was presented as the concept for it as a bonus feature in the back. BLAME! Has a special place for me and I honestly had no idea this even existed before stumbling across it randomly on amazon. It’s more BLAME! that’s written the same style as the main series and tsutomu nihei has done a stunning job. A must own that I’ve struggled to even find digitally, this gets a warm recommend from me.

Totally missed the part where it says “German” but a little google translate and some imagination and it’s dandy

Well, I like many others, did not realize this was German, I assume English since the other Master Editions for Blame are English. Apparently there is no English version or plans for it. They really should have specified in the title. Minus one point for not including it in the item title. Other than that, it's still Noise and it's still great, and I can't read it any less than I could the Japanese version, lol. So I'll keep it. I have the old paperback manga, I can use for translation. Heck, maybe I'll even try to white out the German and write in the English! It'll be a fun project, haha

Book was a big disappoint for Christmas gift. While the hard cover was in English, the text in the book was what appears to be German! My grandson only speaks English, thus the book is a total waste for him. My daughter who lives 140 miles away, also bought the grandson two sets of these type books from the same seller. Both sets had English covers with the text in German. We are returning the books for a refund.

Love it. Just can't read it, as it's in German. However, I purchased it knowing fully it was not in my native language. Love the art and that alone warrants a purchase.

I didn't notice when i bought it so I had a good laugh when it arrived. I'm holding on to it because the art is very good.

With no english version, this german version is your best bet.

Excellente édition allemande, cartonnée et dans le sens de la lecture originale, ce qui n'est pas le cas de l'édition française. Autre avantage : les onomatopées sont très bien traduites et ne prennent pas, comme en français, la moitié de la vignette... Le grand format et une excellente ouverture à plat rend totalement justice au graphisme de Nihei... Seul défaut : c'est en allemand ! A quand une édition française de même qualité ?

This book is released by the German publisher Manga Cult and is in German language! It is a hardcover book and has an excellent quality! As a huge BLAME! fan I bought the complete Master Edition (of course in German ;-) ) series and it looks luxury in my bookshelf. From my point of view the size of the book is optimal for viewing the fantastic artwork from Tsutomu Nihei. Due the fact, that this book lives from the shown artwork and the german text is not that much, I think with a little help of an online translator everybody can understand this manga! The story itself is fantastic and will give some helpful backround informations 3000 years earlier of the actual BLAME! story. For someone who is completely new to the BLAME!-Universe should start reading with this book.

Cuidado, está en alemán.

The item arrived in perfect state/conditions

Un produit avec une bonne qualité extérieure : une couverture rigide et la reprise de l'illustration original en quatrième de couverture (même si dommage d'avoir un Noise en petit et un blame! en gros, sûrement pour des raisons commerciales) Malheureusement la qualité intérieure laisse à désirer avec des pages de fins raccourcis et à l'envers pour je ne sais quelle raison, c'est bien dommage, sinon l'objet aurait été parfait
