| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- That was quite good. I liked how it explored the dilemma of killing for Kei and Katou. Although Katou is a bit of a big girl's blouse :P But I am enjoying this. |
 |
| I know that Katou survives, (the end credits show him), but what's going to happen to his arm? |
 Higurashi: Retroactively asserting why scary and cute sound so similar in Japanese. |
| wasn't it just ep 02 with slight modifications? o.O? |
| it was ok.. iThink Kato is wayyyyyyyyyy too sensitive for a BigBoy.('_') |
| I feel bad for the girl... Running without a bra is any girl's worst nightmare |
| Damn I still can't decide about this anime.. it def confuses me! This episode was way better than ep2 though. |
“In a mad world, only the mad are sane.”Akira Kurosawa  |
| Well, so far it's decent. But I'm not liking how all the characters are reacting to the situation. Why would they run when they have weapons? And it seems they'd rather die than shoot a monster.. Katou is already very annoying. Animation isn't anything special, but it looks okay. |
 |
| I'm quite confused.. What just happened in the end? |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |

| Pretty mediocre. I hope this one doesn't turn out to have the DBZ disease where they spend entire episodes going, "You shoot him!", "No, YOU shoot him!", "NO, YOUUUU SHOOT HIM!". Let's move it along Gantz. |
 |
| Quite alright so far, though if the characters didn't hesitate to kill, it'd be way better. |
| Man this anime is random, in a good way :p |
| TIME TO LIVE FOREVER BABY! http://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=19549 Please join if you love Asian Cinema :) |
| Okay wtf? just shoot already! You know how many people had the chance to shoot but dont? And when Kato slide under the alien away he just left the girl lol! What if the alien doesnt chase him and just killed the girl! |
 |
| He could probably have become a boxer with punches like those. He would just need to get some real muscles instead of the suit. |
'Everything is impossible until proven possible.' - Me |
| This is really....poor pacing. -snores as nothing happened from the last episode to this episode- |
| I did not just watch that. Why are they running when they have weapons? and why is it taking so long??? Man ran around the city TWICE before he finally goes down the hill, notices Katou and finds the willpower to fight the damn thing. |
| Wooop... aliens are in town, babe! I can't yet decide about this anime: is it any good or not? One this is for sure, I liked this episode better than the second one... Also, I so love the soundtrack. I think it's briliant or something around those lines. I just love it. And the graphics are cool as well. About 3rd episode... I can't say much, just that there's a lot of blood and isogiiiiiii, go go go go and... running around the streets while being followed by a green alien monster and then omg the guy's body transformes and he's all muscles and then he beats up the big, ugly alien and then... oh, there are a lot of ”and then”'s in the anime, it seems. I just can't decide yet about the anime, only that it has been recommeded to me by my best anime friend so I guess I should keep on watching - and I kind of enjoy it, to tell the truth, even though the blood is way too fake in some scenes - I mean, come on, his hand gets cut and then there gets out a river of blood that slops the air... fake, fake. |

| Quite nice episode but a bit to much running oh well these episode do got a decent pace, lets see what's next! |
 |
| At first I hated Kei cause he was a chicken..Now he became awesome?? |
-------Only God will judge me -------- iSignature |
| They have weapons but they run around town and fights with fists. Pacing is weird too. |
 |
| I understand, but put yourself in kei's and katou's shoes they are only 15, it's not like "ok heres a gun, yay, now lets go kill living things". |
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
| It felt a bit too stretched out. |
| I'm not sure how I like this series so far... the first episode was very intriguing, but since then it's been a bit lackluster. The kids' hesitance to kill is understandable when compared with some of the gangsters they've been paired with... but after being chased around town by a bloodthirsty green alien monster all night you think they might find the courage to finally pull the trigger. Hopefully this show figures out it's pacing because I hate dropping a series. I expect some alien homicide and hopefully some insight as to what's going on in episode four. |
| Oh my g*d. A chase takes 20 mins? Come on guys. What's the friggin plot? I don't get why everything happens and why no one questions nothing. And I wonder all the reason behind this. I don't normally watch survival game anime but this feels authentic and mysterious. Just give me something. I wonder what happens when that countdown finishes. |

| So much talking. I understand why but omg!! |
 |
| Why does it take so much to kill a fucking alien? OMG! Just shoot the motherfucker. So much nonsense drama, I thought this was going to be way better than it actually is. |
| He can't shoot because he's weak, scared and the alien begs for forgiveness. It's ok. Kei is an asshole sure, but it's his defense against the world. No one cares about him, so he cares about nobody in return. But he's not evil. I had the same reactions while reading the manga though. It wil get better eventually. Character development and all. I would've taken the onions. |
| This is just plain awesome. |
| Anyone have any idea what the song at 7:50 was? |
| I was annoyed with this episode. While I know the characters are going through some major trauma, I'm still like...PULL THE TRIGGER |
  |
| as corbert mention Good guy A: I'm gonna shoot it! Good guy B: Shoot it now! Alien: *kills random guy* Good guy B: Shoot it already! Good guy A: I will for sure! Alien: *kills another guy* Good guy A: Okay, I'm serious, I think I should shoot it right now... Good guy B: Yeah, sounds like a good idea... Alien: *kills nearly everyone but good guy A and B* Good guy A: *finally shoots the alien* -mission cleared- |
 BruneianHere Feel Free To Add Mehh You Fkin Scrub |
| Bruh the onion aliens are literally the only aliens that you feel sympathy for, because if they were all like that, this series would be far more depressing than it actually is |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| I must say, I fucking ship Kei Kishimoto and Masaru Kato. They're my OTP. Also, the other yakuza, Kiyoshi Yoshioka went out shooting and injuring the Adult Onion Alien with a real gun. I didn't know he even had a real gun. He had a somewhat badass death. So yakuza-like. The others were pathetic, especially the rapist, Hiroshi Hatanaka. HAHA, Kishimoto pushed away Kurono's hand when he reached out for her. Serves you right, moron. Don't get in the way of my OTP. Even if they both die, I want them together with their bloods, guts and other bodily fluids mixing together. That's a true OTP union. Alien Daddy can get hit by cars and smash cars but he didn't hurt those two dudes riding the cars. Kato, I disagree with you, Kurono is NOT cooler than Kenshiro or Goku. Even Kenshiro's shit would be cooler than Kurono. I feel so sorry for the Green Onion Aliens :( everyone is a fucking asshole except for Kato and Kishimoto Kei. Kurono and everyone else can die now. |
| 臭い- |
| This was really good ended so soon, when I heard the ed I was like what so fast probably some say wtf lol... |
| Its kill or be killed. I don't know why he hesitates to kill when they are already dead anyways, you can't commit murder if your dead. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I wonder what would happen when the time runs out. I can't believe Kei still has issues shooting that onion guy after he attempted to kill him so many times. But yeah, I kind of feel bad for those onion dudes being executed for no reason so far. I'm still wondering what the heck is going on. |
| To shoot or not to shoot....poor kids.....if only they had 1 more decade to decide.... |
| Kei's character is very pervy and Kato's personality is very cowardly. I'd say Kato has an unexpected character despite his appearance. The trio find themselves fighting the father of the green onion kid and are intervened by the contestant that disappeared as soon as they were teleported. |
