''[[Biomega]]'' is a 2007 [[Cyberpunk]] [[Science Fiction]] manga by [[Tsutomu Nihei]].
[[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]], Zouichi and an AI integrated into his motorcycle called Fuyu are sent to retrieve humans for Toha Heavy Industries. They are looking for humans immune to N5S infection, which turns humans into undead disfigured "Drones". Zouichi is sent to find Yion Green, an immortal 17-year-old girl. The world's future is up to Zouichi when Yion is kidnapped.

* [[Apocalypse How]]: The world undergoes a large viral plague which results in odd zombification. To make matters worse, the only people left are being killed off by cyborgs and mutants, with only Artificial Humans left to protect them.
* [[After the End]]: There were three seperate ends. The first was the loss of all digital information hundreds of years before the begining of the story. The second is the [[Zombie Apocalypse]]. And the third is caused by using zombies as a catalyst to turn the lithosphere into a giant space habitat. [[It Makes Sense in Context]] ... [[Mind Screw|sort of]].
* [[Alternate Universe]]: This seems to be the case with Biomega, it features a lot of similarities with all of other Tsutomu's works but the stories can't possibly take place in the same universes. Biomega and BLAME! both feature [[Artificial
* [[Arm Cannon]]: One of the arms of artificial human Nishu Mizunoe is a rather destructive arm cannon.

* [[Artificial Human
* [[Badass Biker]]: Zouichi
* [[BFG]]: Zouichi's coil rifle.
Line 24 ⟶ 23:
* [[Fun with Acronyms]]: Sometimes it seems like the DRF must have an entire department that just comes up with acronymns for its subbranches.
* [[Genre Shift]]: From [[Cyberpunk]] [[Zombie Apocalypse]] to [[Heroic Fantasy]] [[Cyberpunk]].
* [[The Gunslinger]]: All [[Artificial Human
* [[Improbable Aiming Skills]]: Justified by the fact that everyone who does it is an organic robot, and POV shots explain that they have "terminator vision" and are doing physics calculations on the fly.
* [[Mega Corp]]: Toha Heavy Industries and the DRF
Line 37 ⟶ 36:
* [[Scenery Gorn]]
* [[Shout-Out]]: There are a lot, but the most obvious are the AI companions that appear as 10 inch tall, pretty young ladies in tight fitting clothes with odd vertical black markings. Now [[Halo|where]] have I seen that before?

*** This is by the same guy that did the Halo comic so I don't think anyone minds.
*** Given how ridiculously powerful Zoichi's pistol is its safe to say that Nihei did not approve of the nerfing of Halo:CE's pistol. That's right boys and girls, we may have found a Japanese Halo fan, they do exist!
