I can almost guarantee that one if your favorites will die, most likely Reika as she is sniping from an unprotected vantage point with no spotter.




The enemies are very strong as well making most of the weapons completely useless. Even the "Oka" suit didn't holdup, indicating that most of these monsters are above the 100 point level of previous battles. Also having many teams that cannot effectively communicate with each other unlike the Tokyo+Osaka pairing leaves little hope in developing an effective battle strategy amongst the players.

"oka" suits?

you mean the regular gantz suits right?

there have being creatures in previous games not worth 100 points that tear the suits i.e. the budda last boss ,those winged creatures kei took out by himself, and that one guy who lead other aliens against the "hunters"

just because they have no trouble tearing them apart doesnt make them 100 or close to being 100 especially when a regular blaster tears them apart.

Inaba and Old Man's deaths have signaled that this will definately be a major turning point in the overall Gantz story. Another cleansing of the team? Another bhudda arc? We'll see, but i'm glad Gantz has become somewhat unpredictable again.

Oka suits. Before the team saw the battlefield, they saw dead bodies with "Oka" suits lying on the ground.

No, I mean the "super" suit that Oka Hachirou of the Osaka Team wore (ch. 269). I don't know from what source you are reading from, but pg 2 of ch 291 shows a the remains of a player that had the same suit in Italy. On pg 3 looking at the corpse Katou says that's "Oka's suit".

The beings that I believe are close to 100 are the "angels" that broke the swords and the larger opponents. The Guardians (tengu & dog) from the Nurari-hyon arc were very strong and I would place most of these aliens at that level but even the sword worked against the dog.

I wonder if Kei will use his 100 points for new weapons.

Off Topic: I want to use this time to ask this question just a quick one because I dont know any other places here on Animesuki where I can ask this question. Is Mangahelper site working for anyone else? because its not for me i always get a 404 - Not found? have bin getting this message for 2 days.

Come on stronger destruction weapons? Thats all nice and all but remember the demon in the "Oka" arc that withstood the strongest gun? I hope they show a stronger version of the capture gun, now THAT i would love. A giant laser-net shooting gun. Or a vehicle with indestructible cables, now that would be awesome.

aha

i didnt recognize the suit

multiple 100 pointers?

the players better get some international grp help going otherwise they will die. what team do you people believe they will ally with first? how about throwing out some names and see who nails it. first ill like to state the team they arent meeting up with and that isitalian team from any italian region i bet the different italian teams have being wiped out by now.They will meet with americans or mexicans i say these 2 because both regions have a considerable amount of japanese in their country.


i say this battle is a cleansing one to get rid of the weak and the giant size gantz ball in germanny will summon them.this round is the qualifier to the main event .now wouldnt that be something?

You know what though, that's why I read and love Gantz, because it's not predictable like other mangas, but still RAGE!

Thanks for the spoiler though, I was hoping to get a little more story out of this chapter, there hasn't been much to talk about lately... Cookies for you.:D

Hey it seems the old man is also being caled back into the Gantz room. Does it mean he is still alive? Because, if I remember correctly, as long as you are still breathing, you will be called back and revived no matter the number of body parts. So it might be, that Inaba and the old man might be alive after all. But why the heck is Kurono stranded like that. Is it the last page of the chapter or somewhere in the middle bcoz I dont want another cliffhanger

MAQI

Maybe it's the glitch that is making all this happen, transferring people early, dead people, and before the boss is dead... I so wish we would get some story in these next few chapters..

So the whole chapter is all about them transferring. The old man didn't seem to get transferred. His body just got thrown over because of the big alien.
Kurono got partially blasted before he can be transferred.

2009-03-18, 20:19
Yeah, interesting, whats the point of transferring them as the boss shows up? Or maybe they're just being sent to a new area?

I think that Gantz is starting to malfunction (seeing as all the precedents that had been set are being broken one by one), but that's just my crazy theory. We'll see the reason why all this crazy shit is happening in the next few chapters, most likely.

Telcalipoca
2009-03-21, 10:22
the huge giant alien while it does seem powerful might not be the boss just something to consider since there were other giant statue on the floor prehaps the boss was among the fallen.or maybe the true mission begins after a certain number of angels and certain types are killed . imagine everyone relieved at the fact they survived only to be thrown to an even more dangerous mission.i dont think kei is dead some of jis skin is missing but thats all unless he is step on i think his injuries arent enough to kill him in less than 1 minute plenty of time for the transfer just something to leave the readers on the edge.i wonder if reika got 100 points from her snipping since those small angel creatures were also strong they should be wort more than 1 point even more than 3(the very first alien boss was worth 3 no? and he was way weaker than the angels).maybe she will revive kuruno

and if this is the end of the world wide gantz team up no follow up with the other teams then this whole arc blows

Just read 295.

Kurono makes it and kills the boss with that H gun powerful weapon, he lost his left arm only and is torn up. The rest of the team transfers first and think he didn't survive at first and then he transfers late. Reika hugs him crying why can't he hook up with her on the side at least I know she would go for it.

Inaba that pussy dies thank god I hated that guy. So worthless.

The old man dies too, which is sad he was cool.

Leaves another cliff hanger. Starts showing the points for cherry which says 0 and a caption below it says owari or the end-it's over etc.

like i stated kei dying or living was something to keep the readers on their edge. I dont remember what chapter it was from but i remember something about a new rule where players were to get 10 points in a round i thought this meant who ever didnt would die but nothing happened to those that didnt get the 10 points so dismiss the rule what if the rule is playing in affect right now? cherry got 0 points and has "finished "written on his name will gantz get rid of players that didnt score? reika,koato and kei are safe if this is the case since they were all shown fighting but the rest?

what if the "finished" refers to their role in the game? this was the last mission now they let free to witness the end?

I can understand what you mean by that. But if you recall that kei once finished a mission without killing anything and gantz had told him that if he didnt get 40-60 points that he was "finished." So i dont think it has anything to do with it being the final mission. It probably means he's either going to be dropped from the game or killed. Knowing gantz it'll prob be the latter.

Yeah, usually it would be the latter, but GANTZ is malfunctioning right now. It could mean a whole range of things. Hell for all we know, it could kill everyone or give everyone else 100 points, maybe even bring some people back for no reason. (I'm crossing my fingers for the old guy coming back due to malfunction).

Let's not. Gantz wouldn't be Gantz if people didn't die.

Edit: That may have been too terse. Nothing wrong with hoping for that for the characters, it's a natural human thing to do; however, it would change this manga for the worse if everyone always survived, and that's why I wouldn't hope for that for the manga.

:heh: You're a funny guy...:rolleyes: I think the quality of the manga declined after Kei died, He is the only main character I actually root for out of all the mangas I read. There is just something about him that makes you want for him to survive and win. I place myself in his shoes when I read the manga and I rarely do that for any other main characters. Why the Kurono hate? Is it because you want the story to focus on someone else or is it something else :confused:

i guess i never got over keis first appearance how he was during the begining of the manga.he thought himself smart better than anyone else saw gantz as a place to show off that hit me as someone who was a fool not realizing the situation they were in.a horny guy that couldnt see why the girls wouldnt give him pussy his whole personality pissed me off.i know that he has change loosing all his teamates woke him up surviving a round by himself also help him realize gantz wasnt a game having new teammates that rely on him for survival also help develope him and even his gf changed him for the better.i know that he has gone through alot of character development and his new persona i do like but i cant get the old kei off my head.perhaps i disliked him so much that im unwilling to change my views about him even after acknowledging everything. well whatever the reason kei dying tickles me

What a great chapter(296),nothing happened,except for the dude that was crying for his mother got a new weapon and Reika wished Suzuku or w/e his name back,and about half of them are finished which i think means Death,since Gantz said they must get a certain amount of points during a mission...

yeah since reika and nish were given the option of freedom weapons or reviving i say those who got a finish are going to be killled but i dont understand why did kaou also get 0 points? the only ones that were shown to be fighting were kei reika and katou and katou and kei were fighting side by side providing cover for the other gantz members who were fleing so why did he get 0 points? he is no longer his non killing self ever since the osaka mission(took 3 guys out but only got credit for 1 wtf?) hes killed inorder to survive so him shooting away at nothing or shooting to injure them doesnt seem like something he would do.if kaou is killed it will total bullshit since he DIDNT stay still and do nothing or tried to run away.

If the machine makes an incorrect decision regarding a character, it may also be possible what it suggested has a possibility of not happening.

And why the hatred towards the women and the kids....They are at least trying to do more than they are capable of.

I think she won't be able to resurrect him,because Gantz is dying(malfunctioning).

But i seriously don't see the reason of bringing the old man to life(not in a bad way i mean it),I mean if his wife is already dead,so he should just rest in peace,he is older and obviously this war is too difficult for him to handle,so they will just make him suffer more if they bring him back,because the aliens/monsters are getting tougher and who knows what will happen to him next(like you know next time he may die in a lot of pain because the goddamn creatures like taking off their arms and legs first).

did you forget what he did before the mission started? he killed everyone in his classroom left an eye witness talked on his cell to confirm that he was nishi and had killed everyone in the classroom.going to his normal life without a suit would mean imprison for life so he chose another weapon.

Hum? You are not making sense with the suit and weapon. The suit is always available and fixed when ppl get teleported back to the room. Unless they ain't wearing it and left it somewhere outside the room. The option to choose a new weapon is not the give the suit. Is a new hand weapon or maybe the suit that Oka was wearing.
Besides that massacre in the classroom was strange. The swat team shot him and he got injured.... doesn't make sense if he had the suit. Seem like the suit only lasted against a few bullets.

This might sound bad, but I love that guy (Nishi) He is the second best thing about GANTZ! He chose the H gun and also walked off with the one he had from the Italy hunt. I think if anyone comes after him they will have a hell of a surprise! It's all about survival for Nishi now and he did the right thing (for himself) INHO. As for rieka.... What ever happend to I'm gonna revive Kurono (The old Kurono)? I mean she could have done that and it would have been interesting to have two Kuronos. I am glad that the old man will come back though, thats if he does indeed come back, with the malfunction who knows what Gantz will do. It did what Nishi asked for without messing up so maybe it will be what she wanted, but there is a big chance that something else will happen that is unexpected... Man! two weeks is too long to wait!

Did anyone notice on the last page where it said "see you next week"? Will there be a chapter next week? Or was that just a translation error? Here is what I'm talking about.

Hmm yes those ideas seem pretty logical. But my opinion is that he will be revived but our main dude will be all buged out or something and he will have UNLIMITED POINTS WOO!! jk jk but really i think something is going to happen to kurono. and we still have that army of gantz too to deal with remember?

I definitely feel sorry for her indeed. She loves Kurono a lot, enough for her to use up her points for something she doesn't desire. I thought she wanted a dupe Kurono who only loves her.

Anyway, in the beginning of the Osaka arc, Cherry's sensei did mention if it's the right thing to bring back the dead. He was implying Kurono, but his point was even more valid for the old man since he can finally be with his wife having eternal peace. They need to start thinking before they revive people. This isn't Dragon Ball, you revive them to only have this vicious cycle happen to them again? It's just cruel although that's not the company's intention.

Maybe it's not the Gantz ball that's malfunctioning, maybe it's the dude inside the ball. Wouldn't it be nice if the old man is brought back to be the replacement Gantz dude? :heh:

As for Reika, the way she keeps sacrificing her points for what Kei would want, it's hard for me to see the point of those folks who consider her "all looks" and say Tae's is by default the better personality and better for Kei all around. Even if Reika does have the self-interest element in there with trying to please Kei, she's also giving up an awful lot for his sake, and she clearly is in love with him.

And regarding MAQI's question, it does say "continuing in the next issue" in the raw, so I guess that would be next week.

I don't know how true the facts in this spoiler are but I just came across spoilers for the next chapter and here are the contents of it -
it shows the Gantz machine shutting down before briefly showing Kurono's points. Then the team leaves the Gantz room and says their goodbuys but Reika has to go back inside because she forgot something.

Maybe the 'finished' stuff is an indication that the round they are in is finished, the timer coming to a stop and all that. With a new round starting everyone will be back zero points as the timer resets or some such. The Italy battle sure looked like alot of Gantz teams got wiped out entirely, and would have been the end for mankind in itself had their not been a vast supply of heavily equipped teams to throw into battle.

Hum? You are not making sense with the suit and weapon. The suit is always available and fixed when ppl get teleported back to the room. Unless they ain't wearing it and left it somewhere outside the room. The option to choose a new weapon is not the give the suit. Is a new hand weapon or maybe the suit that Oka was wearing.
Besides that massacre in the classroom was strange. The swat team shot him and he got injured.... doesn't make sense if he had the suit. Seem like the suit only lasted against a few bullets.

what i mean is this he needs the suit and gantz weapons in order to not get caught by the law after what he did.

I don't know how true the facts in this spoiler are but I just came across spoilers for the next chapter and here are the contents of it -
it shows the Gantz machine shutting down before briefly showing Kurono's points. Then the team leaves the Gantz room and says their goodbuys but Reika has to go back inside because she forgot something. However as she re-enters the room she sees the bald man that sits inside the Gants machine standing infront of the window and he says something to her, then gets inside the machine and revives Kurono.ANd now there are two Kuronos"][/SPOILER]

It's soo fake.It's not even funny ;d

Reika does not wish for a fake Kurono,she wants the real one,and her true wish was to revive the real Kurono for real and delete his memories so she could become his lover.

Edit*

I just noticed,i typed Kenichi instead of Kurono lol xD

My oh my looks like my spoiler was right. But now things are really messed up but it would be pretty funny if even this Kurono likes Tae and refuses Reika. Poor Reika always tries to make Kurono happy whatever her own wish maybe because even when everyone was trying to kill Tae she tried saving her from Izumo and the others for Kurono's sake and this time even though what she really wanted was to bring another Kurono she said the old man's name again for Kei's sake. So I am happy that hopefully for once she would be getting w=the love that she so deserves

At least the guy immediately moved on to formal business instead of jumping on Reika. A good indication that he is not human. And, the end result is also messed up. Does that mean, the ones brought back to life are simply clones with the memories of the old ones implanted on them. In any case, having two Kuronos is better that having one Kurono and the old man.

But will they go back to the ball, it's still not explained what 'finished' meant, and why the point scorers, like Nishi didn't get it... in fact why give Nishi the option of another weapon if everyone gets the release option without their memories erased? No heads exploded either, so perhaps it's not the end/?

Two Kurono's, Kato, Nishi, the team's getting pretty strong they just need Itsuki back.

That seems like the Pre Tae Kurono, I hope this Kurano can respond to Reika's feelings.
It shouldn't be too hard for two Kurano's to exist. There were two Kei at one time, of course one was not involved in the Gantz game.

Everyone in the Gantz game are already clones of the Original. Remember Kei who was cloned by mistake because she was supposed to die by suicide but Survived. Even the current Kurono that came back is a copy because he was all hurt during the last battle.

It looks she hit the special option since she saw the man standing outside the GANTZ ball and quickly ask her what she wants. Then that man creates another Kei that her heart desires.

So it is a different Kei but that Kei has no memories of other girls except her.

The only reason the wish for reviving the old man is disregarded since it's not what her heart says remember the previous chapter where she try to seduce Kei and failed so she thinks of having another Kei for herself back then and up until the recent chapter she thinks about it.

GANTZ ball has a technical problem so they finished the game immediately even if the mission is not yet finished*there are several Statue of angels, and other god statues yet then they were saved by technical problem*.

Or that Kei2 has a specific assignment of terminating everyone that finished GANTZ except Nishi and Reika.

CygnusX
2009-04-22, 16:14
Awsome 2 Kei's, I'm very excited what next chapters will bring. Curious about Kei+Reika and about the next fight with 2 Kei's.

This made me think a bit... if it were me, even though I'd be probably the first to die in the missions, but in the unlikely case I was good in it and got 100 points, I'd use them to create a clone of myself and next time again, you'd get 4 clones then, continue like that ... mass clones all in Gantz suites in the end and an almighty clone army :D Maybe a better option though, create a harem of Reika's :heh:

Got a lot of questions now:
- Has a person in Gantz done anything like creating clones of themselves to win the game more easily?
- With the Gantz factory it seems easy to create copies of people and create a clone army ... that would be the case if humans were in charge of those balls I'm sure ... so what's the reason why the Gantz balls haven't been used for war? Cos they can't be controlled by humans and are not from this planet ? .... what other explanation can be given? ..........

Hope some questions will be solved by the end of the manga...

that is what we need to see next week. I am inclined to believe what someone said, that this Kei is customed made for Reika. Remember that Gantz can erase memories so he could also alter them. Of course, there is always the problem of where Kei2 is going to live or if he is going to go to school. I guess Reika has to tell Kei2 what she did and that he can't go back to his old life.

we don't know if he is in the ball all the time, he is in the ball when everyone arrives and everyone leaves. For all we know he gets out all the time after people leave. Now as of last chapter we know he can step out and still "reboot" the ball when it malfunction.

ever since nishi mentioned that gants once brought back someone who didnt die and the gantz self went home to meet his real self i thought they were clones of the real person.And when kei(female) found out she didnt really die by finding out there was another her at the hospital confirmed it.kei,kato,reika,cherry,nishi the real ones died the ones that are up and around are their clones which means the each revived person is a new person so the person who died died.

Anyone else think the end of Gantz is coming soon? Now that a black ball is effectively shut down, what the heck is gonna happen? Two Kurono's can't be good. I don't know how similar this new Kei is to the "original" (as original as any of them can be), but I know all Hell's gonna break loose if the two Kurono's meet.

I am still in deep denial and depression, though. If there are no more missions, that means Kishimoto Kei and Sakuraoka Sei won't come back any more. :(

I don't mean to offend, but you're wrong, it comes out every other week, so there are always two a month. I think the reason it came out two weeks in a row was because of golden week in Japan. By all means (if the mangaka has decided to change to monthly) let me know, but as far as I know it comes out every other week.:)

2009-05-06, 10:06
Sadly it looks like I was right in thinking that even the fake Kurono would love Tae and not Reika. Poor girl. I feel so sorry for her bcoz there's just no hope. She should have asked for a kurono that didn't meet Tae. Like when she confessed to Kurono and he refused she asked if he would love her if he hadn't met Tae and he said yes. So she should've asked for that Kurono

kakakka
2009-05-06, 10:24
The thing is....She didn't asked for him. Well, yeah she was thinking about doing that, but she said that she wanted to bring back the old guy, not Kurono2.

I felt sorry for her is that she was forced to be in this kind of situation, which she didn't really asked for/anticipated/prepared for doing. And now she was torn apart (dumped), not only by Kurono1, but by Kurono2 as well....

i,m just glad the situation didnt become complicated.

There so many crazy things that i could think of would happen when reading the 1st page, such as:

- Reika didnt tell Kurono2 what really happen and let him off just like that
- Kurono2 killed Kurono1
- Kurono2 killed himself
- Threesome (2 Kurono + Tae)
- 2 Kurono + Katou = Total Pawnage

but in the end, it just ended simple and clean

well, kurono1 stayed with Tae because he loves her. I bet that kurono1 would have loved to be with Reika too, but he loves tae so much that he wouldn't do such thing and break her heart. Now Kurono2 knows that he can leave Tae to Kurono1. This remind me of the time when Female kei met her double and understood she had to break up with her previous life.

Anyway, at least Kurono v2 is sane enough to call Reika crazy. But now they will most likely end up with each other regardless. I don't know. I wonder if Reika will get even more psycho than this. (She seems like one of those crazy-murdering girl in a dating sim game)

It is not different from what Kurono did with Female Kei in the very early episodes. Kurono should know better than anyone how hard love is on a person. The personalities of Kurono1 and Kurono2 are already beginning to deviate. They both had different experiences, it will be interesnting to see how the two women shape the two kurono. Tae with her sweet and warm love and Reika with her pationate love and sexiness.

Kurono loved Kei alot and when Kei was actually alive and Kei2 found out that she was actually a copy and had nowhere to go she lived with Kurono but still loved Katou even though Kurono loved her so much. The situation with Kurono2 and Reika is just the same way. Maybe Kurono2 will stay with Reika and Reika tries her best to make him fall in love with her stupid Kuron2 still can't forget Tae. I especially feel sorry for Reika because she didn't ask for this

That's why at the end he went to Reika. I mean he could of gone to Katou and explained and I'm sure he would of helped. But he went to Reika...he understands her a little I think.

exactly, it is not like Kurono doesn't feel anything for Reika, it is just that he loves Tae. She was his only reason to live until recently. Remember the previous chapters when he was walking in town with Tae and he was looking at Reika advertisement? Tae asked him if he likied Reika and was a little jealous. He is attracted to her and who wouldn't. It is like you love eating curry and you eat it all the time, but you would love to be able to eat expensive sushi everyday more than curry. Tae is curry and Raika is expensive Sushi.

It is like you love eating curry and you eat it all the time, but you would love to be able to eat expensive sushi everyday more than curry. Tae is curry and Raika is expensive Sushi.

Yeah, I think K2 would eventually forget Tae. Anyway, I wonder what the other Kurono would think and do if he ever meets K2....

Gantz better not be over. Damnit!

I want that epic meeting to happen in the room.

Everyone gets transported for an unknown reason....Kurono comes...Reiki thinks its K2 and she can be all like "YOU DIDN'T COME HOME LAST NIGHT!" and everyone will be all like :O AND AHHHHHHHHHHH!

Then K2 shows up. And shock of the year.

End chapter.

Wait 2 weeks for the next one.

that is real life, if you are a beautiful woman you can get away with pretty much anything. Especially if you throw in a few tear drops.

I got 99 problems...a girl crying in front of me ain't one! But I won't lie. I would still ask whats wrong...especially if she is hot. But hey, I'm just a guy.

Kurono has shown us that he is able to adapt to difficult situations. He has had bad luck with women until Tae, and that is probably ONE of the reasons he appreciate her so much. Tae is his only connection with the normal world.

I wonder since there are two Kuronos now will the one that Rieka didn't bring back have to go on the next mission? Or will he be out of the Gantz world for good? I mean it would be nice to just leave him out of Gantz all together and the second Kurono be the main Kurono in the story so that we can have some hot kurono + Rieka (Kurieka :p;):D ) action going on... It would be a good way of giving those fans of Kureika what they want and pleasing the fans of the Kurono + Tae relationship, becuase now everyone can be happy, except the second kurono... well for now anyway, I think he will fall for rieka soon enough, I mean come on man she is one super fu@%ing hot biscuit!!!!!!!!!

Ha! You're so right! This is why I love Gantz, it's so realistically portrays the sadness, anger and dispair of real life. Well at least my real life...

I don't know though, the whole Kishimoto situation where she was not reallly part of the story anymore kind of makes me think he just wanted to close the book on the Kurono tae relationship. Although Kuronon is one of the main characters so it will probably be handled differently with him.

I don't know, I just want some more twists and turns. I so love reading this manga because you never really know whats gonna happen and if it will be what you want to happen.

Ah, I never thought of that.

He could also turn into this obssesed stalker and in the hight of his sexual frustration become delusional and fu@% the ever livivng crap out of Rieka seeing her as Tae in his mind's eye... Very interesting.:eyebrow:

Then he would go mad and take his other self out of the picture. I just foresee a lot of blood if things go in that direction. It could go in so many ways.... Oh the excitment!!!!:D:D:D

Kei2 didn't rape her. He hesitated.

After that, I couldn't tell if they swapped or not, but one of the kei's went back to her after leaving. In the end, they took a romantic bath together and that kei does end up "banging" her. >_________________>

You know, if the kei's get bored of one relationship, they have the luxury to swap and bang the "other" girl. <_____________<

I'm starting to think that Reika and K1 might end up losing both Tae and K2 in whatevers coming...just musing but it'd be pretty sick and cruel in a Gantz sort of way if Tae and K2 end up being killed. And Reika and K1 end up together anyways.

I mean honestly, how long can we have 2 K's for?

Hypernova

that was probly one of the most surreal chapters i have ever read. and saying that about Gantz is really saying something. i mean there are so many weird chapters in there. but, if the world is coming to an end her choice is justified in a very weird way.

that talk between the two K's was without incident, which was surprising. in the next couple of chapters i hope it's about all of there lives and we get a bit more insight into that.

1 yes theres 2 k but keep in mind this isnt the first time theres 2 of the same person the female kei who liked katou had 2 persona's one in gantz the other in their real life.

2 tae is still alive and with what now is referred to as K1

3.Kei mad at her wanted to rape her(my opinion) make her feel sorry for what she had done but was taken back by her lack of struggle and willingness to fuck instead.They however do not fuck at this point K2 goes to K1 for his thoughts K1 says you lucky dog hit man .K2 takes K1 advice and hits it as seen in the bottom pic.



things went down rather unexpected i mean first gantz walks around the world then this whats next?

I don't know if anyone has floated this idea and I am too lazy to look back but what if they really did switch places..... kurono 1 seemed to attach himself to tae (and maybe this is translation) like an object to its owner, less from loyalty and more like he was a possession. he had no problem with his other self being with reika even though his other self clearly thought of it as cheating what if he really did switch places.

busting a switcher? i could see it now K1 tells k2 to go ahead and make reika "happy" but K2 refuses and K1 decides to be the "fake" K inorder to please reika.

K2 is really making a big deal out of this situation,i mean if he knows that his other self is with Tae-chan(it's not like she is abandoned or something) what makes him not love Reika ?I mean he himself said that he likes her,it's just that he has Tae....

And Yeah i also thought of Reika's death when I've seen them like that(Not that i want that,but unfortunately in Gantz this is what's going to happen most likely).But i think he will actually start falling for her when that happens,because I'm sure that he will notice that she made it purely out of love and does everything to please him,she even quit her job.I'm sure that he will see that,and the way i see her dying is saving K2,and then K2 reviving her(and fully falling in love with her).

didn't Gantz move to a different publication long time ago?If you think about it, there have not been nipples in Gantz for a long time, probably since they move to a different magazine. I might be wrong about they beiung now in a different magazine and maybe they now have to go through different rules. Censorship is not standard all across Japan, if you have ever noticed, the way things are censored differ from magazine to magazine.

Right now it's really confusing,either the Gantz is coming to an end,with a really weird ending,you know just to satisfy fans :

K2 x Reika
K1 x Tae

The annoying dude that everyone hated,died.
The Old Man that was average,died,most likely because of his age.

And that's it happy ending o_O....

This chapter was nothing special,lots of text messages/phone calls,in the end some weird dudes arrive to the Gantz creator's house and the chapter ends.

I was expecting them to die in the end,since i thought that if Gantz created them,he is acting like a battery/charger to them,so while Gantz is active and fine,so are they,when he's malfunctioning/dying so are they...

I know what you mean. I keep thinking that this is the "calm before the storm" and that the last battle will take place after this. But then I see that there are three weeks of Gantz left.

where do you guys get the ending of gantz in 3 issues? it just says it will be running for 3 issues straight.my guess is that alot of things will end up happening or atleast important things in those 3 issues that will set the stage for the finale so the 3 issues will be thrown out fast.a little strategy to keep the fans on their toes getting it every week then making them anxious and having to wait the usual time.

"and humanity will witness all that is hidden"

the reporter allowed to take pictures of the gantz factory and now will talk to someone who maybe behind the german factory, the removal of the bombs inside the players brains the word of gantz will spread.but what for? why take steps to make the masses know of gantz?

i hope kei shares his pic. with the rest of the grp i want to see how they would respond .

a connection between the end and gantz going public?

There's really nothing they can do. Gantz is done. Who knows if their suits even work anymore. Nishi would probably know, but he's nowhere to be seen, and he's certainly not gonna hang out with the others.

So she made Gantz right? That's weird.....
So maybe that's why no one takes them seriously....It's something hard to explain.


So Gantz is like ending now... I hope the series end with a bang.

Aren't many events that feature super-powered people fighting other super-powered people, weird creatures, and other oddities used for entertainment purposes? Like our enjoyment?

so the thing about the world ending was an urban legend from the net. Instead of using the technology his daughter gave, he used it for some macabre game.

So why would he decide to end it?

I still think the whole game was a preperation for something to come in the future...and the people who fought in Gantz are the only ones who will be ready for it.

so as i thought since the very fist mission was over gantz is a game for someone's enjoyment.surprise to find out they were human though and this leads me to belive the "aliens" are also made by the same side as i had stated before.Or were they already here and did the old man decide to kill them while making their extermination a game? still surprise a single human mind came up with gantz even more surprise by the girls physique.

i want this to be true since the whole fighting for someone's else enjoyment was to easy to figure out.i want there to be more to gantz purpose.

but hey its only issue 1 of 3 so well see what happens

now i really want to know how kei,katou and the others would respond to the news of gantz being a game and they suffered,died for someones enjoyment

Just what you would expect from Oku. This chapter is so weird.

Lostdreams

the latest chapter is driving me crazy. The guy's daughter was spurting #'s, which turned out to be the production of gantz? Gantz is a game that is played where people bet on the outcome? That's insane.

I think it has reached a point where even Oku himself doesn't know what he's writing about.

Wow, I really hope to god Oku didn't come up with this idea as the solution behind the mystery of Gantz, after watching the trailer for Gamers movie.

So a bunch of people watch this twisted game (like us) and bet on what happens. So in a way this might explain why Gantz decided to kill Tae. Maybe Kurono became a favorite and a bunch of people decided to vote for Tae to get killed just to see what Kurono would do.

The old man seems a little weird. I think it's an alien who built gantz because humans don't have the technology. The old man is an alien who built gantz so humans could kill aliens, and he watches the humans kill aliens for his own entertainment. Kind of like gladiators

He could have gotten the idea from that movie "Running Man". The Tae being killed thing could have been that some big shot lost money because of Kurono and decided he should pay for it.

With all this, it still does not explain the vampires and where the aliens come from. There is still a lot to explain and the series should explain it all before it ends IMHO.

if i remember correctly when kei's brother was first introduce he went to some oriantaton where they were talking about something invading the body and changing them .it seemed to like the explanation of how they became vampires.As for tea being a target when she went to the park to take pics and kuruno saved her she placed her hand over her and felt a face after further touching she realize it was kei.I think thats why gantz targeted her.kill all witnesses who arent apart of the game.

Wow, the human blob and mentally retarded. Its horrible to say but when she was mumbling i couldn't help but imagine her dad saying "whats that lassie, to get rich all i need to do is build futuristic tech".I am betting she's an alien or infected like the Vamps and if so i wonder if teh Dad created all the aliens aswell.

I will laugh my head off though if she turns out to be the big bad mega boss

It doesn't seem like it was a lie to me. It was simply clarified that she is more of a receiver than a clairvoyant.

did you read the chapter? Let me explain it to you then. He was asking him what will satisfy him for him to go away. the reporter was not convinced that he was shown was the truth. the guy gave him two other choices for him to choose if he didn't like the fat girl giving tips angle. then he show him a few "miracles" for good measure.

sebastian killed some people to show a point what i dont know but it got me thinking something.Up to this point we taught the people who were gathered in the room all died at the same time period or day by chance.Gantz would simply observe who dies on a giving day of a mission and collects those that die.With this demonstration of killing i think gantz caused the deaths of players who are currently or have ever played gantz.That is messed up

Of course I read the chapter, don't be dense. My point was that the daughter was not a lie. She was simply a tool. She was still receiving some kind of code and some men are still following her code from what I can tell. What was shown about her is that by 302 she appears to be a much smaller piece of the puzzle than she was in 301 and that she now appears to be more of a simple receiving tool that also works as a cover up than some kind of powerful psychic.

There are more than one truths to the story after all, and more than one pieces in an operation. The daughter is apparently an unimportant piece, but a piece nonetheless.

well, if you think the daughter receiving orders was a true thing, then the other two choices that he gave the guy to be satisfied are also true. right?

That can not be considered an explanation. The "something" was "nanomachines" and we can question "Who made the nanomachines?" "What were they made for?" and such.

And why did Gantz sick the hunters on the Vampires at one point? (leading to the current conflict)

i only answered 2/3 didnt go with all my thoughts out of lazyness .alright
i stated in the past that maybe the "aliens" and the hunters (gantz players) were both made by the same side to watch them kill eachother.We know the vampires and the aliens are both on the same side so if the aliens are made then who ever made them also made the vampires.The birth of the vampires might have been to make the game more interesting.well find out soon though

...wait gantz sent the hunters on the vampires? i must have missed this when did that happen?as far as i coulld remember the vampires have only appeared hunting the hunters

New gantz is 28 pages. Then gantz is taking a break or something for 3 months or something. Last arc of gantz is out October 1st.

I would love to read that, I hope someone is cool enough to scan and translate it. I for one love Nishi, Izumi is cool and I like his fighting skills. I just hope it gets scanned and translated durring these next Gantz free 3 months cuz I will be like a crack head in jail without a chapter every 2 weeks. It sucks that it's gioing to be a monthly starting in October as well. Like Claymore and Berserk it will be hard to remember the little details...:(
