1[[folder:YMMV for the original manga]]
2* FanNickname:
3** Killy = [[DullSurprise Mr. Expressive]].
4** Cibo = Albino Girlfriend, or Jesus Chick because she had been crucified the first time Killy meets her, and she comes back to life or escapes certain death by stealing or making new bodies.
5** Graviton Beam Emitter = [[Film/MenInBlack Noisy Cricket 2.0]], Limb-Breaker 9000
6** Sana-Kan
7*** Loli [=McBeamspam=] since she carries a [=GBE=] and is very small when she first appears.
8*** [[ComicBook/ChakanTheForeverMan Sana-Kan the Forever Girl]] since she survives so much punishment.
9*** S. Snacks which is a [[WebSite/FourChan 4Chan]] reference.
10* FoeYayShipping: Between Dhomochevsky and Pcell. [[EpilepticTrees Maybe]]...
11* [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff Germans Love Blame!]]: More so than any other country, it seems. There is even an [[http://www.myspace.com/blameindustrial electronica band inspired by the series.]]
12* HilariousInHindsight: [[Creator/FromSoftware Seu is a knight who repeatedly dies and comes back to life attended to by a mysterious woman with supernatural powers]].
13* '''NightmareFuel:''' Arguably, the entire manga, due to its bleak, oppressive atmosphere and constant technological BodyHorror. If you were ever wigged out by the aesthetics of ''Film/{{ExistenZ}}'' or the "real world" of ''Film/TheMatrix'', this manga will keep you up at night for months.
14* {{Padding}}: Given that it's a WalkTheEarth story with a rather simplistic plot, this is to be expected.
15* TheWoobie: Killy is an IronWoobie and a StoicWoobie wrapped into one [[TheJuggernaut unstoppable being]].

19* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AjVHKlxoKQ Killy's Main Theme]] is a beautiful and somber piece.
20* BrokenBase: The film has split the fandom in a few areas: is it better than the 2D anime or is 3D the only way to really adapt the setting? Are the changes done to the plot welcome and allow newcomers to get a better grasp of the plot or are they needless and badly thought-out? Was focusing on Zuru a good idea? You will find supporters on either side, though many are glad the film exists.
21* HilariousInHindsight: This film becomes very comical if you remember that TheMovie of ''Literature/TheIrregularAtMagicHighSchool'', released a couple of months after ''Blame!'', has an MC very similar to Killy in a love triangle with [[Creator/SaoriHayami Sana-kan]] and [[Creator/KanaHanazawa Cibo]], especially considering the contrast between the actions of Saori Hayami in both films.
22* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The fight scenes and backgrounds look gorgeous to say the least.
23* TheWoobie: Fusata becomes this in the climax [[spoiler:when he realizes Tae, his best friend and love interest, was [[KillAndReplace killed and replaced]] by Sana-kan]], pushing him into a HeroicBSOD for several minutes while the city is invaded by [[MechaMooks Exterminators.]] Although he eventually regains his composure and contributes to the city's defense, he is still visibly grieving.
