The fact that this show is able to be bloody, ridiculous, ecchi, and still maintain a level where emotions and human ideology can be expressed....
Ex. Talking about how people actually like to see news about death, don't want to help others but rather see them die; how the news plays to that.

Anybody else notice the wildly inconsistent numbers on the Gantz ball's countdown? Last episode I think they were around 15 minutes left, give or take ... then at the beginning of this episode we're somehow back to 30 minutes and counting. Maybe every character that dies adds 5 minutes to their time limit.

Katou is one of the worst characters ever, always whining and bitching GTFO. Kei-chan is just an selfcentered asshole, I hope hell get some guts later on. Bigtits was annoying... Nishi was f'ing badass.

But I guess we'll get a new cast of characters in the new round and bigtits gets ANY personality exept shouting: uh UHH.

Looking foward to the next round.

Badda Bing, Badda Boom... and the dog gets 0 points. That was funny.

Well, can't say much about the episode, only that I really liked it. It was better than the third one, in my opinion and I sort of liked it as much as I liked the first episode. And the anime's getting better (haha, keeps gettin'better, like in that song) and...mhm, interesting, I guess. People-in fax machines... cool, yeah! that's the word to describe this episode: COOL.

I'm looking forward to the next episode and I'll just go n' watch it.
Gantz is cool.

This series isn't turning out like I expected. It seems off to a slow start and is really weird, there hasn't been much explaining at all. Also, Katou should have died, not because I wanted him to, but because it would be more realistic. 3/5

The remaining time at the end of ep 3 was 7 minutes, at the start of ep 4 it was 30 minutes.
And they're were at the same spot in ep 3 and 4.

Gantz's comments about them was pretty funny xD

I noticed that too, I hope it's not a continuity error and will be explained in the following episodes...

Eh, it was alright. This is really taking a long time to get off of the ground. I don't hate it or even dislike it yet, so I can go a few more episodes before I form an actual opinion. The complete lack of likable characters is hurting it, though.

If nothing else, there's a character named Bigtits.

So far the MC is a hypocrite who's trying to impress the chick. And she gives exactly 0 f's about him... Pathetic loser. I hope he gets his balls attached soon.

So cliche dumb shit happening and all of the characters suck and are unlikeable. The drama parts should be dealed quicker because you don't yet even really know the characters and the watched doesn't care about them. I hope this gets better. Luckily it's short series.

Nishi is still an ultra twat in the anime. The voice they picked for him is pretty accurate as to what I would've guessed it would be
“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 feel so sorry for Adult Onion Alien :( His death affected me more than Kid Onion Alien's death. He was begging for forgiveness and all. Yeah, he's not innocent or whatever but his kid was killed, I'm sure anyone would react the same way.

At least the cunnilingus dog is still alive, gave her a good licking when he came back.

Kurono is so pissed off that Kishimoto Kei is in love with Kato. Well, no fucking duh, they're my OTP. Back off, Kurono. Bitch.

Thank goodness Kato is still alive, my OTP is still alive.

"Too many bonerz from looking at titz." LOL XD Serves you right, perv.

Nishi's so twisted, he's getting a kick out of seeing people die. My kind of guy.

Kurono's mind and bedroom are filled with tits. I love tits too but he's just gross.

For example, let's say someone is about to die right in front of your eyes.[...] In this situation, what is the first thing you think of? "I have gotta hurry up and rescue them?"
Gimme a break! You would think, "I might be able to see someone die." And not only freaks. Anyone would think that.


Japan sure is weird. There is more than 150k people dying each day in the world, what is amazing about seing one corpse ?

I like the dog. He just loves to lick pussy like I do. Haha
The world they are in is overkill. So once they die in it, their corpses explode.
Gantz's assessment of the dog was hilarious!

Nishi reminds me of myself, just less arrogant. I also DGAF & I will probably enjoy watching people get themselves killed in all sorts of ways. I will thrive in that game for sure.

I need that suit and cloaking ability! There are so many beautiful girls I would love to pay a visit to as the invisible man!
I like the posters in Kei's room. He has good taste when it comes to women.

Gantz had no filter once it came to the end of the mission scores lol. "Miss Melons, Kato Cha:)" and "you've been looking at miss melons and getting too many hard ons". This is such an unhinged anime despite the breaks in its serious moments. We learn that everyone can go home after the mission is over as if nothing happened, but Nishi made it a point to not talk about the trials to anyone.

So far I am enjoying the gritty unfiltered nature of this series but it definitely lacks urgency. A lot of the scenes move slowly especially in this episode after the mission end.
