Gantz 380 Discussion/381 Prediction Thread

[GAT-X252]

Chapter is out, get it here

[Damura]

:O

despite being streamed live and despite there being only one camera man, the pages with multiple TVs in one panel are showing completely different things.

This fight is very hard to follow panel by panel. Making no sense to me. Can tell it would be absolutely insane though. Hard to believe the suit can keep up with Gonde's insane strength.

And Gonde lost his sword tonfa thing. uh oh.

Cool seeing Ryou and Kishimoto in the crowd, though my brain is telling me that the entire reason they were reintroduced was because Oku needed people for this insanely long crowd scene all along.

[GAT-X252]

You can do anything with the power of plot. But seirously, now i can say this final battle is absolute crap...

Why Oku?

A good story makes a lot of money too you know? I know is harder to write but you were doing fine until the second phase.

[A_N_G_E_L]

Looks like another boring, unrealistic and predictable chapter to me. Is it really Oku that is responsible for that story? Right now Gantz feels like a generic shounen where the main character can't lose or even get a scratch. I'm right now to a point where I start to like the anime ending more. The only thing I like in that chapter is the artwork and flash back(mostly because of nostalgic reasons).

This chapter should be called: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[Damura]

lol it's not that bad. I kinda like the fight scene when I can make sense of it.

obviously Gonde is a giant Rock Lee after he takes his weights off at 1:20 while Angry Kei is Gaara from the first minute just casually deflecting absolutely everything.

At least you like something.

I'm not really impressed about the artwork, it's on the same level as the previous chapter and Oku still makes the alien environment human sized for some reason. You find it nostalgic, but all the things i liked from the old gantz are gone now...

I just realized the only person who hurt Kurono 1 in the entire final phase was Nishi and even then he had the hard suit to protect his body...lol

[Damura]

He had a number of close calls though. Nearly got struck by a lightning bolt as he was running away with those guys from the zoo.

[A_N_G_E_L]

Kurono is too overpowered now. I really hate overpowered and flawless (main)characters that have an insane plot armor, they bore me and make the whole story unexciting.
I'm probably seeking for things that I still can enjoy in this manga.:/ Maybe it is the best thing to enjoy the manga till the Katastrophe/Alien invasion, actually, to me the manga started to go downhill when Reika made another Kurono copy and the naked gantz dude went on a walk.

[102jayday]

Really more crowd shit?? Looks like the last page is Kurono doing the final blow on Glonde......Dibs on the first 4 pages of Kurono getting killed lol.

[Damura]

Nah last page is like

Hey Gonde why you such a little bitch hey?

fucking fuck you kurono you killed my brother

eat a dick gonde took your sword thing away and now you've only got one

bah! don't even need any take this pew pew pew

cant hit me boy I'm so tiny look

could this be the end of Iron Balls Gonde?

[GAT-X252]

I wonder how this is going to end...we have still 3 chapters until it's over. Oh! You know what could work? Hikawa showing up in front of the germans and killing them to take revenge for all his fallen comrades, we could learn a little bit about the vampires too. I'm not sure about Nishi though, i'm sure he is alive but i don't know how he's coming back, stealing a flying bike? reaching the american ball? Who knows! But he is definitelly showing up soon.

Final chapter is probably going happen after a time skip, the new Reika and Kurono are probably going to appear, an older Kurono 1 (now married with Tae)...well, an older Katô, all living well now that GANTZ is over.

Everybody saying that Kurono overpowered and whatnot. Was his skill supposed to diminish with each kill and victory? He's killed countless aliens and different creatures throughout this manga. In my opinion this blonde guy isn't even the strongest creature he's dealt with. I still feel that the lightning alien was tougher than this guy. Kurono has always adapted very well in fights even if in the beginning it seemed like he was in trouble. The trend is just continuing against this guy. He's fought and killed a ton of giants all by himself and he fought one that used the same weapons. If he already understands the weapons and has already fought a alien far faster than this guy, why shouldn't he win?

[Si3g]

I still can't believe the whole vampire ordeal just vanished as if nothing happend. We really never got to see how powerful hikawa was either :-/.

[GAT-X252]

Maybe not in terms of strenght, but he was most about speed and we saw a lot from that.

[Sollum]

Well, the end of the chapter is pretty clear. Kurono is going for a final "cut". And so Gonde will die next chapter.

4 pages of displaying Gonde falling apart
11 pages of people screaming out of joy
