Synopsis

In Tsutomu Nihei’s nightmare vision of the future, the N5S virus has swept across the earth, turning most of the population into zombie-like drones. Zoichi Kanoe, an agent of Toa Heavy Industry, is humanity’s last hope, and he’s not even human! With the help of Fuyu, a digitized intelligence built into the computer system of his Heavy Dual Coil motorcycle, Zoichi’s search for the key to salvation will take him on a journey across surreal landscapes and hurl him into a battle against mind-bending evil.

Biomega is depressing and distressing. The most part of characters are without exspression and few talk. The edifices is very elaborated and dominate the landscape. In this view human aberration fight for change the world.
I love the style of the author Tsutomu Nihei. The design of Biomega is detailed, with gigantic structure that dominate the protagonist Zoichi Kanoe(but is same to Killy!). Is a artificial human, and search Ion Green a immortal human, for prevent the diffusion of the virus N5S as transform the human in zombi(call Drone in the manga).
Together with Knights of Sydonia this is the better manga of Tsutomu Nihei.

Mixed Feelings
tl;dr: A manga that’s mostly just really boring with a plot that makes little sense.

Biomega is a manga that largely just doesn’t work. The plot is the tried and true plot line that involves an Earth that is essentially undergoing a virus induced zombie apocalypse where the protagonist is part of a group searching for those immune to the virus in order to protect them in order to preserve humanity, with another faction basically trying to use the ongoing apocalypse to reshape the world and humanity to their purposes. However, it’s told really badly in a really scattershot manner that makes it really hard to ...

Around the halfway point, any pretense of coherent storytelling is abandoned in favor of mindless shootouts and random plot developments until it just sort of ends. Things happen, sci-fi jargon is dumped on you, explosions, then a motorcycle ride through a cool vista. Once or twice a woman takes her clothes of to see if you're really still listening. Characters seemingly die, pop in and out of the story, gain motivations on a whim. And it's all so paper thin and meaningless that you never really care about any of it.

What I liked about it:
- It had pretty art
- The fights looked cool even ...
