You're at the bar drinking a beer when this guy slaps you're waifu in the ass and calls her an exterminator.

What do you do?

Killy *can't* die. Remember him *standing up* after his dip in the sun, and him shooting the guy who shot him in the head? He can't "turn off" or lose consciousness or whatever until he's safe.

Only real way to "kill him" would be to destroy 100% of his body a la Majin Buu, in which case his data/soul would be uploaded and reloaded into a new, identical body by the GA. The only way to make sure he couldn't come back would be to literally destroy 100% of The City, as the hardware for the Netsphere is embedded in all of the Megastructure walls. So long as the Megastructure exists, Killy exists.

Nihei even called him immortal semi-recently, so even that might not kill him.
>>
>>139568942
And just to expand on that, I don't think anything in anime (short of TTGL) could destroy the City. It's a mostly solid chunk of metal that extends several billion kilometres in every direction and probably weighs more than an entire supercluster of galaxies.

I had a really in-depth discussion with a friend a while back, and we ultimately concluded that neither end-of-series Alucard or Level Zero-release Alucard could win a fight against Killy in The City.

It's weird to think that Killy's at that level of broken, but he is.

just curious, what evidence is there that that was (a piece of) the sun he was in?

>an object the size of Neptune's orbit
That's impossible, because you're describing a black hole. Not even black holes are that "dense" since their event horizon must be farther out than that.
>>
>>139573425
Black holes are infinitely dense. The event horizon is not physically a part of the black hole, just a radius around it where the gravity is too strong for light to escape. Because the City is spread out over billions of km rather than compressed to a single point, there is no event horizon.

As for the mass, the reason it doesn't collapse into a black hole is because there are "gravity wells" on the City which prevents that from happening.
>>
>>139573425
You're right its impossible and would collapse itself into a black hole, but you are seriously underestimating the density of what amounts to a very large building compared to the density of a galaxy. I'm unsure if the City's mass is that of a super cluster, but the amount of mass in the city is probably on par with a galaxy.

Artbook notes.

>>139573425
>an object the size of Neptune's orbit
It goes beyond Pluto, reaching to the Oort cloud.
>>
>>139573608
>>139573726
That brings up an interesting question, can light actually escape from the City? The city might prevent itself from collapsing but if light still can't escape from the inside, to an outside observer it's basically the same as a black hole, right?

>>139573971
As I said, no event horizon, so light could escape just fine.
>>139573773
The Oort Cloud? That's fucking nuts.

You could probably put 100 quintillion (100.000.000.000.000.000.000) people on that City and spread them out evenly, and not a single one of them would see another person for the rest of their lives.

Blame reaction images.

If I recall correctly, there are only some parts that extend to the Oort Cloud, I remember seeing a really good image of the City.

Remember the arc where he meets an alternate cibo with the gravitational/time drive malfunctioning?
It may be possible to avoid a galaxy/shuriken with that tech...

Also, Killy is a beast.

>>139573425
Blame universe is ridiculous advanced, it's was either implied or outright stated they've found a way to harvest dark energy to power shit and create much of the matter that composes the megastructure. The GBE isn't even a form of projectile weapon, all it does is remove the restriction provided by the city keeping things stable and lets the resulting gravity crush whatever is in the line of fire into oblivion.
>>
>>139567425
That guy survived an attack from Level 9 Cibo which basically teleported a part of the sun's core onto him. You just don't kill Killy.

How is that relevant to this thread?

Is it good? I have another Alastair sci-fi novel called Revelation Space but I haven't started reading it yet.

Nigga been drawing dark, post apocalyptic, shit with themes of transhumanism and body horror out the ass almost his entire career, wouldn't fault him if he wanted to do something brighter.

>How is that relevant to this thread?
Because I brought it up to an anon in this type of thread before but didn't know what to call him. I think he's the one who normally drops infodumps and such so probably the main BLAME!anon of these threads.

I enjoyed it. You'll like it if you like megastructures. Revelation Space is seriously GOAT. Got me into hard sci-fi. I love the RS universe, ate up everything I could find about it. The author knows his shit too.
>>
Following the progression, what will be his next work?
>>
>>139579532

Hopefully more like Blame! then sidonia
