Well, that's still plugging in my book, even if he's just joking, which is kind of weird for a manga that's been all serious throughout.
I guess it serves as a reminder that we don't have to take things so seriously. I mean, when I saw that Playford thing I kind of knew it was something pretty ridiculous, just as I know that BLAME! is actually supposed to read BLAM! which is also quite ludicrous.
I still love BLAME! or BLAM! or whatever, though. Even if Nihei is actually human, and has a sense of humor
