Who else is reading this? Hot-damn, it's an extremely awesome manga. Anyone who isn't reading it should.

Reading this for around 2-3 years ago? though i haven't caught up with it recently (just got addicted again to Adachi Mitsuru masterpieces again >_>)

yeah, at first it's honestly nonsense violence but it honestly became a lot better when you feel that Kei is getting mature and changes his way to be a good leader. sucks what happened towards the end of the first phase though.... (the part where they are in Osaka is the last time i read it - will get back to it after i finish Rough probably (darn, I wanna finish H2 first though XD))

WOOT! Greatest typesetter on Da TV-N Planetz already in on the Gantz love? Sweet!!

Spoiler
Oh, man, was I pissed when Kei died, man. He really started to become so much more likeable, getting a stronger grip on his feelings for Tae and stuff. Well, let me tell you, zeld, the stuff that happens in Osaka is by far (believe me when I say this, BY FAAAAAAAAAAAAAR), the craziest sh*t that's happened so far in Gantz.

My biggest question has gotta be: what the 'F' are these 'vampires'? 'Cuz they sound more like modified human beings to me if they've got nanomachines running through their body, powering the abilities they possess and whatnot. Hot-damn, I hope the near-future isn't mean to us.

yeah, i was also weh when Kei died X_+ and it's quite cool that he loved tae even if he can get an idol for a girlfriend (which, duh? won't work out at all XD)

regarding the vampires - i still don't get them either. it's also like huh when they introduced Kei's younger brother which looks exactly like him but just taller - then killing him instantly? o_O

Try Mangashare. Since what happened at OneManga, I've continued reading the newer chapters there.

Speaking of new chapters,
Spoiler
who read chapter 280 and who's excited to see good ol' Kurono Kei back in action (despite his memory being only up 'til the end of the Oni Aliens mission)?

@ zeromaru:

I just found this site called StopTazmo where they have chapters 01 - 279 to d/l as rars, ending my Gantz-withdrawal of over a year! Phew...!

I haven't caught up yet, and I have no idea how recent chapter 279 is.

It's also available through the (crappy imho) online maga reader at Bleach Exile, up to the same number I think.

Hope that's of some use to you...

Ah, I love this manga! It's just so completely off the hook!

And whoever was hating on the anime, I *almost* agree: the anime is there to lead you to the manga, and *then* you notice how crappy it is and hate it!

I've read to about chapter 25, but I love the anime. As for the manga, I'll be buying the dark horse releases as they come out. I loved the anime, and the manga is great as well.

When I was bored with those mainstream manga, I looked upon Unixmanga's toplist, then I found this manga interesting...

This manga's illustrations looks awesome, with so much detail here and there (especially the building, exterior/interior), though this manga is also, errr... vulgar, but those things never come without reason, and I just love how the conflicts in each character being explained.

Btw, let's continue the discussion, cuz the "katastrophe" has appeared (or happening)...

totally happy that Dark Horse hasn't butchered the manga like TP would have.

btw not sure if you guys new this but JPN is making a Gantz movie. Youtube has a teaser but it's not that good. unless you just want to look at the ball.

Finished it like a year ago. That ending for the manga felt kind of unfinished. It would been nice to get an epilogue or something.
