Gantz (Manga)	comment	Imagine the bastard offspring of the wanton gore and nudity from the 1990s OVAs with Doom's disturbing nature and Warhammer 40,000's outright insanity. Put that on crack and toss it in a septic tank. Finally, throw some heavy social commentary in to justify it all. That's GANTZ.GANTZ is a Sci-Fi Horror action series by Hiroya Oku. As it begins, Kei Kurono, a rather unpleasant teenage student, is run over by a subway train after he and his childhood friend Masaru Kato rescue a hobo from the rails. Instead of being dead, Kurono finds himself trapped in a small apartment along with Kato, a bunch of weird people (including a hot naked girl, a dog, and a middle-school boy who seems to be the only one who knows what's going on) and a mysterious large black sphere.The sphere begins to sing an exercise song, and explains the situation: they were dead, but "Gantz" note an experienced character points out that that's what the sphere's "always been called.", not knowing where the name came from gives them a mission: to hunt down and kill a strange alien creature. The rules are easy: they have one hour to complete the assignment. Any injuries that they sustain during the mission will be fully healed upon completion of the task. So long as they're alive, they will be summoned back to the room in a healthy and fully restored state. But if they die before the mission is over, then they'll remain dead. If they stray too far outside the allowed boundaries of the mission area, they will die. After the mission Gantz will score each participants' performance by assigning points. When any hunter reaches 100 points, they are presented with the "100 Point Menu", from which they get to choose one of three different rewards: Be freed from the "game" with all their memories of it erased, be given an extremely powerful weapon, or choose to revive one human from within Gantz's memory bank. With all that said, Gantz gives them high-tech battle suits and some futuristic equipment and armament and launches them into the mission.Essentially, the first nine volumes (and the whole anime series) consist of (seemingly) senseless killings of a gory, horrific nature as the Gantz ball assigns different aliens for the hunters to hunt; Fanservice; and sex scenes. The manga began to improve when Kurono was given a romantic interest and impressive Character Development. Then "vampires" are introduced, secrets are revealed, and things become truly weird and extremely convoluted. The fights also become longer and longer, to the point where they seem interminable.In the manga's third phase of the story, things all over the world become horrifically worse for everyone. Oku had planned to end the story in 2012, but it ultimately wrapped up on June 15, 2013.A two-part live-action Japanese movie adaptation was released in the winter and spring of 2011. A CGI film, GANTZ:O, was released in 2016, covering the events of the Nurarihyon Seijin arc of the manga which takes place in Osaka.A three-volume spinoff manga, GANTZ:G, was released in 2015. It's stated to be a parallel story taking place around the same time as the original story, albeit this time featuring a group of primarily female Ordinary High School Students as the protagonists (hence the "G," for "Girl" or "Girls"). This series has virtually none of the sexual exploitation of the original series and focuses more on character development. A historical spin-off, Gantz:E, takes place in the Edo period.Tropes;

Once he abandons his Dirty Coward traits, finds his resolve, fights like a man for the first time and kills several powerful aliens, then appears in front of his team, victorious and looking Badass...yes, he gets immediately killed.

In the Buddhist Temple mission in the anime, the team happens across a dead bum and Kato decides that immediately after telling everyone they need to hurry and finish the mission is the perfect time to take yet another angst break. Kurono, who's presumably even more fed up with it by now than the audience is (which is saying something), angrily calls him out on it.

Gantz (Manga) / int_1796e460	type	Death Means Humanity
Gantz (Manga) / int_1796e460	comment	Death Means Humanity: Over the course of the manga, dialogue and interactions between the aliens and monsters who are the main enemies for the bulk of the series implied some troublingly human characteristics (family bonding, interpersonal connections) as well as the idea that many of them just want to exist in peace. Some of the monsters even accuse the main characters of Humans Are the Real Monsters. But given the life and death situation they're in, none of the humans seem to care or notice. In the final arc, the team has to fight humanoid, alien giants invading the planet. When his girlfriend is killed, Sakurai goes on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge and uses his Psychic Power to kill a horde of them. Then he sees two giant corpses that look like a grandmother holding a child and he screams in despair. He goes on to later sacrifice himself in order to save two giant children mourning their mother, cementing this change of view.

The "TAEEEEEEEEE!" and "KEIIIIIIIIII!" cries these days are as fundamental to Gantz as Ludicrous Gibs and wanton nudity. It seems that the author recognizes this and makes fun of it as well. In a recent chapter, Kurono and Tae are using these cries as a call and response when an alien girl decides to keep Tae as a pet. The alien gets annoyed and puts her thumb on Tae's mouth to shut up her pet human.

Gantz (Manga) / int_1bca196d	comment	Reluctant Warrior: Several of the Gantz team members (most of whom didn't exactly volunteer) aren't initially real gung-ho about the idea of hunting and killing aliens, but nearly all of the ones that survive eventually get over this. Kato is probably the purest example of the trope, since while he does eventually get accustomed to his teammates' use of lethal force to the point where it doesn't make him suffer a Heroic Blue Screen of Death and break down crying every time, he still personally tends to almost always at least try to use the capture/teleport gun whenever possible as opposed to one of the "ludicrous gibs" type, and risking himself to save others is one of his defining character traits. He does give a bully a pretty savage beatdown (chapter 27 of the manga, episode 7 of the anime), but this seems to be mainly to teach the bullies that he's capable of doing so and that if they keep picking on the weaker kids he'll come after them.

Gantz (Manga) / int_2bdae2ae	comment	Awesome, but Impractical: The guns in the series, while extremely powerful and more than capable of beating the targets, have a firing speed slower than actual bullets, making quick-moving targets hard to hit. Even once it does hit, there's a time lag before the ammo finally decides to explode. Of course, it's not like the hunters have any other weapons, so what choice do they have? Subverted in the last hunt in the anime, where the timelag was removed on the guns, making them far more deadly.

In fact, a big story point during the mission involves Kato making the conscious decision to help bystanders instead of ensuring his own survival. Invoked in a rare positive light during chapter 352. One of the hunters outright states, "I wouldn't count us out just yet. We may be fighting monsters, but our squad has a few monsters of its own." Cue several images of the team going Berserker pack on the previously nigh-unstoppable abominations.

Then in the manga the giant four-eyed aliens come along, and do things like indiscriminate planetwide mass-slaughter, harvesting and snacking on humans in viciously sadistic ways... and happen to be physically and psychologically the most human of all aliens.

Then she takes an action. And she messes it up, gets rescued by said Kato, is reduced to his Satellite Love Interest and finally dies for him. Not that the rest of her team did significantly better, but still...she finally does something after being revived by the Osaka nerd before the Katastrophe in chapter 346 by shooting and destroying an alien fish lizard monster thing as it begins to savage a bunch of people they'd just saved from the giants. This then backfires in 347 when Anzu and the nerd destroy another alien; releasing light spores which cause people to mutate into horrid abominations made of their own body parts (you grow extra heads, arms, legs of all different sizes out of your original skull). It also got worse. Female vampire Chiaki borders on Dark Faux Action Girl territory since despite her badass looks and nickname, most of her actions end by her ass being saved by Host Samurai.

Gantz (Manga) / int_42cfbfc6	type	2D Visuals, 3D Effects
Gantz (Manga) / int_42cfbfc6	comment	2D Visuals, 3D Effects: the Anime and Manga have their share of it: The anime is more modest about it, and features only a few locations and aliens modeled in 3D. The CG at the Buddhist Temple mission is most notable, as both Gate Guardians and the Living Armor are mostly in 3D, and a few shots of regular 2D animation make up the interim. The artist obviously produces the graphical representations of all weapons in the manga and a good deal of the technologies using 3D modeling. He then applies varying levels of 2D art and other post-production refinements over those models, to make them fit in better with the general art style. (The artist even details the process by which he does this in an early chapter.) In later chapters, Hiroya Oku increasingly employs 3D modeling on top of real photographs to portray scenes of destruction, to the point where on some pages it entirely dominates the scene and hand-drawn art stands out as perverse kind of Conspicuously Light Patch. This technique would lead a reader unfamiliar with the manga to become confused, as the scenes of destruction look like an entirely different comic.

One of the highlights of this is when an old bully brags to Kurono's face about how he scored the girl Kurono had a crush on when they were younger. In front of both said girl AND Kurono's girlfriend. His nickname actually ties in nicely to the fact that his second life, as a complete badass, happens during the night. Then during the day he's just plain old Kurono. Inaba within the Tokyo Team. If being tricked into having sex with a male alien disguised as his crush Reika and getting seen by the real Reika doesn't suck...

Gantz (Manga) / int_6411dac8	comment	Badass Normal: Quite a few characters. Daizemon Kaze. In his first mission he beat a friggin' dinosaur to death without the suit. Kurono qualifies very quickly for this any time he's put in a situation where he lacks his suit. He freaks the hell out about it every time (because the suits increase the odds of living greatly) but still manages to live through battles. In the manga, Kurono later qualifies again when he manages to kill over a dozen vampires lacking both his suit and his memories, having opted to take the choice of leaving the Gantz team. Reika also qualifies in a later chapter, as she manages to jump from 0 points to 100 in a single mission, making her the first main character to reach 100 points twice. This becomes even more apparent when you notice most of the team didn't even get a single point.

Tae, Izumi's girlfriend, we're looking at you. Sometimes this is just because the early aliens are Invisible to Normals. It's also a law that Gantz teams must at all times demonstrate they have no grasp of tactics. "Hey, everyone, we have long range weapons and most of our enemies are melee only! Let's form a circle around him at close quarters and stand around for five minutes thinking things over before shooting at the guy in the middle with our teammates right behind him with our delayed effect guns!" Somehow they nearly always manage to avoid what should be the natural consequences of this. The one time somebody decides that sniping from cover might be useful, they face the one enemy in pretty much the entire series that has an effective (fast, accurate, deadly) long-range weapon, and of course since it didn't work out so well that time, it must be a horrible idea that should never be revisited again, even when they're back to facing melee-only enemies. The business executives who control Gantz during the alien invasion. "Hey, let's forcibly conscript veteran Gantzers for military missions, give them no briefing or even specific orders, and hope their combat skills and equipment will carry the day."

Gantz (Manga) / int_7870735b	type	From Bad to Worse
Gantz (Manga) / int_7870735b	comment	From Bad to Worse: The Osaka arc presented an entire army of foul beasts/aliens as well as three immensely powerful boss monsters, one of whom was so strong it wiped out a more experienced, better armed, and brutal Gantz team almost single-handedly, as well as displaying a regeneration ability Wolverine would envy. The main team barely survives...and then finds out that Gantz has a clock that is counting down some sort of worldwide catastrophe which is due in about a week. And just when you think things can't get any worse, the Italy arc starts, and there isn't a sewer big enough to produce all the excrement that has hit the fan. Then Chapter 303 came out. Somehow, it's gotten EVEN DAMN WORSE. Specifically, alien robots with the same visual theming of the Gantz sphere and weapons land worldwide, and begin to level everything. Aliens with the same large Gantz suits seen in the Osaka arc then appear in everywhere and start to do the same, harvesting the civilians. And in Chapter 306 the alien mothership starts coming down... All humanity need is a final blow. Just when you think it couldn't get any worse than that, Chapter 342 came out. After rescuing Takeshi from the explosions, Nishi finds Gantz on the street, impaled through the head. Oh, and Kaze's group is trying to get Gantz to get them back as Giants close in on them. To put it bluntly... IT! GETS! WORSE! And now we learn that the Giants are recreationally fishing humans, complete with bait and rod guns. The fact that Tae is caught in the middle of the group being fished makes the situation worser than ever for Kei. Not only is Kei-1 in a bad situation but in chapter 345, Kei-2's group of merry men have been transported to an unknown region of the alien mothership described as "hell" in the previous chapter, where they've found a mass grave featuring hundreds of humans, including JSDF members and people from other Gantz teams. To top it all off, the civilians they just rescued showed the standard Gantz-esque display of immediately showing zero appreciation and leaving the team only to encounter another group of aliens which can only be described as large creepy crawlies. And by chapter 370, Body Horror gives way to existential horror as everyone is being literally lectured on the most merciless version of materialism by a giant alien with some sort of bizarre shape-shifting head. Just to prove that humans aren't anything special, said alien constructs several of the main cast out of nothing...and then promptly tears them apart, effectively showcasing humanity as nothing but a bunch of parts put together to make an organic machine. And then, just as everything seems to be over...everyone figures out the Gantz balls are inoperable and are now stranded on a space ship without anyway to get back to Earth. The end of the chapter is literally tagged, "The end of despair becomes the end of hope." Then the plot starts flip-flopping at this point. Turns out just one is still active, and literally everyone on the ship rushes to get to it, resulting in a very long line to teleport people out. Meanwhile, the Americans decide to arrange one-on-one fights with the special forces giants to the death to kill time... Right up until one of said giants turns out to be a badass war hero that curbstomps the entire American team, and then demands Kei Kurono, the murderer of his brother, to show himself so they can fight, otherwise crash the mothership into the Earth, basically killing off all of humanity. Everyone on Earth promptly loses their shit (including mass suicides), before Kei steps up to the plate, resulting in one final showdown. Kei nearly wins, only for the giant to manage to get the upper hand and nearly steps on him, only for Kei's teammates to step in and pull his ass out of the fire to join the fight. The author loves building up the suspense to ridiculous levels, it seems.

After rescuing Takeshi from the explosions, Nishi finds Gantz on the street, impaled through the head. Oh, and Kaze's group is trying to get Gantz to get them back as Giants close in on them. To put it bluntly... IT! GETS! WORSE! And now we learn that the Giants are recreationally fishing humans, complete with bait and rod guns. The fact that Tae is caught in the middle of the group being fished makes the situation worser than ever for Kei. Not only is Kei-1 in a bad situation but in chapter 345, Kei-2's group of merry men have been transported to an unknown region of the alien mothership described as "hell" in the previous chapter, where they've found a mass grave featuring hundreds of humans, including JSDF members and people from other Gantz teams. To top it all off, the civilians they just rescued showed the standard Gantz-esque display of immediately showing zero appreciation and leaving the team only to encounter another group of aliens which can only be described as large creepy crawlies.

The end of the chapter is literally tagged, "The end of despair becomes the end of hope." Then the plot starts flip-flopping at this point. Turns out just one is still active, and literally everyone on the ship rushes to get to it, resulting in a very long line to teleport people out. Meanwhile, the Americans decide to arrange one-on-one fights with the special forces giants to the death to kill time... Right up until one of said giants turns out to be a badass war hero that curbstomps the entire American team, and then demands Kei Kurono, the murderer of his brother, to show himself so they can fight, otherwise crash the mothership into the Earth, basically killing off all of humanity. Everyone on Earth promptly loses their shit (including mass suicides), before Kei steps up to the plate, resulting in one final showdown. Kei nearly wins, only for the giant to manage to get the upper hand and nearly steps on him, only for Kei's teammates to step in and pull his ass out of the fire to join the fight. The author loves building up the suspense to ridiculous levels, it seems.

Gantz (Manga) / int_a6b14ee1	comment	Hollywood Tactics: And how! In many instances, the Gantz team display an odd kind of Mook Chivalry, refusing to gang up on a single powerful alien. Very early in the manga, in the Buddha Temple Mission, a character suggested the sniping tactic, and applied it effectively, yet that tactic was forgotten until the Osaka arc. Although, to be fair, everyone except Kurono died in that arc, so he was probably too traumatized to remember it. Nevertheless, the team never thinks of distracting the aliens from multiple directions with cover fire. Also, Kato never thinks of firing a kill shot after successfully trapping an alien with the trap gun. He just kind of stands there waiting for the thing to break free. And let's not start on how many Gantzers gladly walk within striking distance of the aliens instead of just shooting them. You remember the Demon Monster Arc? The one that Evolved? Yeah, they sniped him, all of them. They also have a habit of entirely encircling aliens at close range before shooting at them, which is a terrible idea since it not only puts them all in reach of enemy attacks, but also raises the risk of friendly fire. Also, they have invisibility cloaks, but almost nobody but Nishi ever thinks to use them. Worse, the few times they do get used, it's heavily emphasized how overwhelmingly effective an invisible attack is. They don't even think to use their cloaks against an enemy that can explicitly only be killed by surprise attacks!

Gantz (Manga) / int_b3eecaae	comment	Then the plot starts flip-flopping at this point. Turns out just one is still active, and literally everyone on the ship rushes to get to it, resulting in a very long line to teleport people out. Meanwhile, the Americans decide to arrange one-on-one fights with the special forces giants to the death to kill time... Right up until one of said giants turns out to be a badass war hero that curbstomps the entire American team, and then demands Kei Kurono, the murderer of his brother, to show himself so they can fight, otherwise crash the mothership into the Earth, basically killing off all of humanity. Everyone on Earth promptly loses their shit (including mass suicides), before Kei steps up to the plate, resulting in one final showdown. Kei nearly wins, only for the giant to manage to get the upper hand and nearly steps on him, only for Kei's teammates to step in and pull his ass out of the fire to join the fight. The author loves building up the suspense to ridiculous levels, it seems.

Gantz (Manga) / int_b58b4e3c	type	Too Dumb to Live
Gantz (Manga) / int_b58b4e3c	comment	Too Dumb to Live: When you have just died and find yourself in a locked room where other people teleport in, explain your situation and tell you to put on that body armour or die a horrible second death, listen to them instead of writing them off as cosplayers. Your survival won't be guaranteed, but at least you'll last more then 5 seconds. The guns blow things up...after a few seconds. So instead of whining about how you can't beat an alien shoot it already! In later chapters, students in Kurono's class all casually go their own separate ways instead of listening to their teacher, who suggests that they should all stick with the one person (Kurono) who just successfully fought off two aliens right in the middle of an invasion. And even the ones that do follow Kurono proceed to laugh about his otaku outfit and question why they are following the one kid who just smashed two aliens into blood pancakes. Secretly, Kurono was attending Too Dumb To Live University all this time, and was a daytime lantern there because he actually had any will to live at all. The "innocent bystanders" in general, whose reaction to aliens wreaking havoc begins with "Cool, let's go there and check it out" (when they see them on the news), then "Cool, let's come closer and take pictures" (when they see it from far away), then "OMG it's horrible, let's just stand here while it kills us", then "OMG someone's fighting, let's stick around and watch". Not to mention the zero common sense (walking home naked, in a war zone, while you don't know what the hell is going on is dumb, folks), and zero respect they have for the heroes. One can almost sympathize with Nishi who just wants to save himself instead of saving the civilians. That's not even the worst of it. You'd think that after the massive, widely televised and reported incident with demons in Ikebukuro where EVERYONE could see the hunters and the aliens, that people would at least have an inkling about what to do when monsters show up. Instead, they act exactly the same in EVERY arc until Katastrophe, assuring themselves that it's all "CG" or a film shooting. It gets worse when you realize half the time that they'll stay right where they are EVEN WITH THE EVISCERATED REMAINS OF THEIR FRIENDS LYING IN FRONT OF THEM. The latter portion of the Katastrophe arc. Despite witnessing the deaths of something like half the human race over the course of two days, suddenly all the civilians are willing to crawl out of their holes and embark on the alien spaceship that-and I cannot stress this enough-JUST MURDERED ALMOST EVERYONE THEY KNEW, because of an incredibly obviously false peace treaty, and start treating the hunters-y'know, the guys who they've seen fighting monsters and saving lives-like cockroaches. How about in the final battle, Kei is fighting what is assumed to be the Giants leader/best warrior/general, and it is televised, humanity is watching and they actively Rooting for the Empire! Against someone who is fighting for their very survival, taunting him to just die.

Gantz (Manga) / int_b79c1062	type	ForgottenSuperWeapon
Gantz (Manga) / int_b79c1062	comment	Forgotten Super Weapon: An entire armory of them. While they are not exactly super weapons, the Teleport Guns are extremely useful, being a homing hitscan weapon, while all the other types of guns only fire straight (with a firing speed slower than real bullets) and have a delay between pulling the trigger and their targets blowing up. They are used only two or three times in the entire manga, mostly by Kato, because they're (supposedly) non-lethal and he's the only main character who seems to be morally opposed to killing everything that opposes him. Also, the Monocycle, which provides great speed, mobility, has extra seat for a shooter and can crush lesser aliens; it was used exactly once by Kurono's team. The cloaking devices, too — the few times they use them, they're shown to be unbelievably effective (even against the vampires, who have ways of detecting you while cloaked), but most of the time everyone just seems to forget they exist even though there's no logical reason to ever be uncloaked during a mission. It's probably not a coincidence that the two characters who we're told survived long enough to be veterans, Nishi and Oka, actually do spend nearly all their time cloaked during missions; nobody else seems to catch on. Well, not being able to see your own teammates can be a pretty significant disadvantage, so there's that reason to be uncloaked. They still don't use them nearly as often as they should. Cloaked players see all other cloaked persons in their field of vision. Seen in one mission when they actually manage to fight each other on the alternate frequency. However, the only guy to die due to being seen got photographed while switching frequencies somehow, and his head exploded (due to Gantz exploding the bomb in your head if your involvement with the missions is exposed to the outside world). And, also, it seems real-world vision is significantly diminished/darkened when stealthed.

Ringu with the stalker girl who looks suspiciously like Sadako. The female vampire code named Kill Bill and modeled after Chiaki Kuriyama, the actress who played Gogo. Sei, who looks exactly like Tomb Raider heroine Lara Croft. And as of chapter 326, we have an alien who looks uncannily like Danny Trejo. During the alien invasion, a man and a woman are lying on the ground. The woman is freaking out (understandably so) and the man kisses her to get her to calm down, AND IT WORKS. The exact same thing happened during the 2011 London riots, except in Gantz, the man is shot and then explodes into chunky salsa, which makes the woman freak out again. Tae being killed by Izumi from behind with a katana may look familiar. Inaba says that the Osaka Team enjoys killing aliens so much that they seem to think they are just playing Resident Evil instead of being in a really dangerous mission. Chapter 339 has some people in a cage singing "We Are", from One Piece.

Gantz (Manga) / int_ca3a6dbd	type	Informed Ability
Gantz (Manga) / int_ca3a6dbd	comment	Informed Ability: Nishi may very well qualify as this. He has been Gantzing for a year longer than Kurono & co., but dies shortly after the beginning of the story without getting much of a chance to show that he's a skilled player. Even once he's later brought back, Nishi gets his ass handed to him by the Nurarihyon alien and loses an arm before being teleported back. It's tough to say whether or not he really deserves the title of 'Gantz veteran' when most of his scenes have been devoted to showing him getting curbstomped. It should be noted that Nishi apparently spent lots of his time hiding and kill-stealing when his prey was distracted by other Gantzers, and hardly ever fought on his own, hence the crappy fighting skill. Besides, he has been Gantzing for one year, yet has not been freed, has no special weapon whatsoever, and reviving someone else really is not his style, so one can be almost 100% sure he has never accumulated 100 points. On the other hands, the new players (Reika and such) get 100 points in just over a month. Thus, it is probably safe to assume that the aliens he has been fighting on his first year are pretty wimpy and not worth much points or he just hid when the aliens were too much for him, choosing to get his points wiped rather than risking his life, so obviously he gets his ass kicked a lot when faced with increasingly dangerous opponents. Reika is the team's highest scorer, bar none (Izumi with his two wins being long dead...and having taken longer). Kaze and Sakata are rather superhuman even before death and the Gantz. And Gramps is the leader's wingman, getting lots of support help and advice..."Normal" new players all die right away, or at best score like Inaba (beaten by a toddler and a panda both). To be fair though, he earned 100 points in the short Italy arc where Kurono of all people didn't score a single point, so he can't be completely useless. Besides, it's been fairly well established that the Nurarihyon is just about the hardest individual enemy the hunters have ever faced, given that it single-handedly wiped out the entire elite portion of the Osaka team along with putting the majority of the Tokyo team out of commission by the time of its demise. Getting your ass kicked by a 100-point monster isn't all that much to be ashamed of. Wrong and Wronger. Nishi topped off from 75 existing Osaka stealth points kill-poached and cherry picked in that chaos... Reika was the one who got the full hundred in one. Kurono seemingly scored a lot, either 90 something or maybe a full hundred, unknown due to counter failure from glitchy Gantz.

Gantz (Manga) / int_da03a529	comment	Bait-and-Switch Boss / Trick Boss: Several missions feature these. The wimpy Onion Alien that was on the readout in the first game had a much bigger, much more dangerous teammate (his father, by the way, in case you missed that). Half the team was dead before it was done. The Buddhist temple mission is another excellent example. Also, the "Mr. Tanaka" aliens, which are nothing more than minions/kids. The Dinosaur Arc sort of subverts it when Gantz identifies the "Boss" from the beginning, then played it straight when the boss grows from the size of a kid to a giant humanoid creature, and even then he is not nearly as dangerous as the final dinosaur in that mission. And the final bosses are not related to the game much.
