SPOILER WARNING
Before I begin the indepth review I have put together some survival tips for the world of Gantz.
Survival Tips.
Stop gawking and fight back because the alien will just pick off you group one by one.
Work together which is pretty self-explanatory.
You have to kill to survive because no lifeform has won a battle by dieing for its planet, it wins by making the other lifeform die for it's planet.
And last but not lease keep your distant (I'm looking at you, Kato).
Indepth review
The premise of Gantz is that two teenagers; Kurono and Kato are hit by a subway train after saving a homeless man who fell on the tracks. They soon find themselves in a small apartment with a group of people then a girl, Kishimoto appears in front of Kurono completely naked.( Wow I never seen inside of a boob before). Then they are all introduced to Gantz, a mysterious man in a sphere who tells them that their lives are over and they all belong him now. Gantz orders them to hunt down and kill aliens living on earth.
The best way to describe Gantz is that it's has a lot of style but very little substance which can be seen in the semi-original plot to the nudity, sex and extreme violence. Nudity and violence is not the only thing going for Gantz, it also has excellent animation and uses CG well which is to be expected from Gonzo. Gantz is also not without it's problems for example most of the characters are naive morons (I mean they could of saved Nishi but they just stood there and did nothing) and the ending was confusing. Anyway if you like lots of violence and nudity then Gantz
is the series for you but for the rest of us might want to stay away.
Gantz gets a 6/10.
