Wow... today i finaly downloaded and read Eden manga... something amazingly good... story is simply great, everything is superb...
So i would like to suggest to anyone interested in cyber/apocalyptic genre. Viruses, cyborgs, drones, politics, future world... amazingly good...
Plot Summary (by ANN): In the panic surrounding a worldwide pandemic which kills 15 percent of the population and cripples many more, a secret organization, the Propater, topples the UN and seizes control of much of the world. A boy and a girl, raised in an abandoned virology research center, immune to the virus, use a powerful combat robot to wipe out the Propater forces who come to retake the island, led by the boy's father. 20 years later the boy is the most powerful drug lord in south america. He aids his son from behind the scenes as he evades and eventually with the help of mercenaries from Nomad (some of them former Propater operatives) fights the Propater. Based strongly on Gnostic mythology, all major characters are named after gnostic deities, and have analogous roles.
While maybe in start it is little wierd, but later on how story goes... one of best mangas i ever read... characters are very likeable, their development is great... they are gradualy developing like story... There is no linear timeline but we watch current situation, and then story moves few years/months in future... Trust me, it is simply great...
Anyway, i would suggest everyone here to grab it, i am sure you will like ti...
Here is download link:
http://manga.crystalnova.net/
and newest releases:
http://mp.sigh.org/manga/
Current release is Volume 10, chapter 67
Oh yeah, maybe it is NOT for everyone - it includes explicite violence, sexual scenes, gore, etc.
Anyway, i hope there will be discussion about this title soon...

Awww.... you reminded me about 7 Eden volumes I lost when my hard drive crushed >_<
Eden is really well-made and developed story. NO comparison with BLAME! nevertheless ^^
