Synopsis

BLAME! (ブラム, 2017) is a Japanese sci-fi anime film you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Hiroyuki Seshita at Polygon Pictures — the studio behind Knights of Sidonia — it adapts Tsutomu Nihei's manga for Netflix, keeping the source material's oppressive scale intact.

The setting is a megastructure city that has grown without any plan or limit across thousands of levels, with no sky and no end. Long ago, an infection severed humanity's connection to the network that governed everything, and the automated defense systems — the Safeguard — flipped to extermination mode. A small colony called the Electro-Fishers clings to survival in one pocket of this labyrinth, running low on food and unable to venture far without triggering a purge. Then a lone wanderer called Killy walks out of the dark. He's looking for humans who still carry the Net Terminal Gene — the only thing that could restore order to a city that has forgotten what order means. Voice cast includes Takahiro Sakurai, Kana Hanazawa, and Mamoru Miyano.

This is a slow, almost architectural kind of anime — less about action beats, more about dread and scale. Fans of Nihei's stark visual world will find Seshita's CG adaptation faithful to that mood. Stream BLAME! online on iFILM.
