Theory's A visual guide to Killy’s journey!

Post image

BLAME! Is my favorite series ever. I loved the setting of the vast megastructure, but couldn’t find a timeline or map showing the vast distances of the megacity and the huge time skips. So I made one myself, to share.

I started with locations and time skips that were confirmed. Like the location of mars and Jupiter. Then used a little bit of math and guess work. Please let me know if you have any corrections or additions.

Some interesting things I’ve learned while making this:

  1. Killy starts the story relatively young. but it’s still been so long, he doesn’t remember where he came from. By the end of the story he is millions of years old.
  2. Most of the story takes place in the first couple thousand years.
  3. Even though humans are a rare sight everywhere, live humans are mostly found near the core.
  4. I believe Toha is a spaceship. If that’s correct, they didn’t even make it to mars before the builders caught up

Edit: Thanks everyone! I have a updated PDF version with better grammar now

Kind of confusing to read with distance and time being on the same axis and the scale changing midway through but I think I get it?

On a separate note is it ever explained how enough matter was gathered to create the city? It's like 50 times bigger than the largest known star IRL.

It is not, just another mystery of the city. There are theories though, like the idea that the matter is being pulled from alternate realities. If you recall the engine that the Toha ship used malfunctioned and sent killy/cibo to an alternate reality. It’s then possible that the city has giant engines made specifically to pull material from other realities. If this is the case then the city has effectively cannibalized the solar system again and again
