Knights of Sidonia

In the far future, humanity clings to survival aboard the massive, mobile space habitat Sidonia, beset by the monstrous Gauna. This 2016–2018 series from Editora JBC collects the English-language release of the acclaimed Japanese manga, originally created by Tsutomu Nihei. Known for its stark, biomechanical art and tense, hard-science fiction, Knights of Sidonia follows the young pilot Nagate Tanikaze as he is thrust into a desperate war to protect his people. A landmark of modern mecha sci-fi, it matters for its unique blend of post-apocalyptic survival, giant robot combat, and Nihei's signature architectural style.
