Knights of Sidonia Master Edition Manga Volume 1
About Knights of Sidonia Master Edition Manga Volume 1
Knights of Sidonia Master Edition manga volume 1 features story and art by Tsutomu Nihei. The Master Editions feature larger print, colored inserts and omibused volumes which compiles 2.5 volumes of the original manga.
Outer space, the far future.
A lone seed ship, the Sidonia, plies the void, ten centuries since the obliteration of the solar system. The massive, nearly indestructible, yet barely sentient alien life forms that destroyed humanity’s home world continue to pose an existential threat.
Nagate Tanikaze has only known life in the vessel’s bowels deep below the sparkling strata where humans have achieved photosynthesis and new genders. Not long after he emerges from the Underground, however, the youth is bequeathed a treasured legacy by the spaceship’s cool-headed female captain.
Meticulously drawn, peppered with clipped humor, but also unusually attentive to plot and structure for the international cult favorite, Knights of Sidonia may be Tsutomu Nihei’s most accessible work to date even as it hits notes of tragic grandeur when a hopeless struggle for survival unfolds.

Beautiful Edition of a Beautiful Manga
by Elizabeth -
The art and world of this manga are amazing, and despite a plot that's basically "Attack on Titan in space" (believe it or not, I thought of that before I heard it in Gigguk's video), It really sets itself apart with it's unsettling setting and atmosphere. Also, watch the anime. It does a great job of keeping that atmosphere.
Great, and a lot of fun too

Nihei does it again with a great story, amazing art, and awesome characters. Nihei's older stories don't really have comedy in them, but he adds it in this story and who knew he could do it so well. I was laughing out loud multiple times throughout the story. A must read for Nihei fans and a great entry to Nihei's work for new fans.
