>>280205175Was that ever a meme?
>>280205294What makes it meme worthy?

>>280205463What makes anything meme worthy?
I just think it's some funny narration. Some memes are like that.
Where's the "what the dog doin" poster when you need him
Kek, femcels were a thing in the early 2000's
Kinda looks like a black kid ngl
Why are you making seperate threads for different chapters faggot?
>>280205832Hey asshole! This is a volume 1 thread if you can't fucking read dumb shithead!
I've always wanted one of these fucking suits.
>>280205865>WHAT THE HEEZY?!Huh?
>>280205924>about retardedHeh?
>>280205865>WHAT THE HEEZY!?Ok, i'm not so sure about these translations anymore....
>>280206001Idk man, I just work here
And so our real story begins! Chapter 5 coming soon, stay tuned everyone!
>>280206111Oh no! He's still legs!
>>280205618>The most moral of our main cast is barely suppressing his desire to rapeBased manga
>>280206247That would make her wet in real life wouldn't it? I mean, she ends up crushing on him and all. Or is it just his height and face card
Alright, time for Chapter 5! The way he draws these faces are so uncanny
>>280206351>Too Many Cooks!
>>280206497What happens if you poke a finger in someone that's half way teleported? Can you feel their insides?
>>280206351Its not uncanny, its more "semi-realism" compared to your typical shounen manga style. Usually they also have a 3D base behind it upon which he draws the characters on.
>>280206670Fan of Berserk?
Imagine going into this blind and seeing the Tron laser teleportation for the first time with no warning.
>>280205066 (OP)Now that you say that, if someone is blind, would Gantz restore their eyesight when reanimating them?
>>280206773> The first instinct to do nothing when you see a bunch of weapons spawn out of the sphere instead of.> Weapons are on the offer, yep, that sort of a thing, I better get multiple of them just in case.This is where the start of Gantz is a bit weird to me even now.
>>280206920Well it is the early 2000s in Japan of all places, can't expect them to think any better.
>>280206919That's not what I meant, and I can't tell if you're just fucking with me by misinterpreting things on purpose, or if you actually don't understand.
>>280206965Heh heh, you said blind and it made me think.
>>280206920Well at least one of them figured it out, as
>>280206991 shows.
Nishi the trickster has appeared
Alright, I'll give a try to chapter 1-4 but mein Gott, do you even have a regular dumping schedule? It looks like you're just posting chapters here & there.
>>280207056They had literal yakuza in there and they didn't figure out, that's what bugs me the most.
> Yakuza literally smuggle in guns all the time to Japan back in 00s with miniature form guns that are easily smuggled.> Ignore the guns lol.nah.
>>280207177>Blair witch projectI forgot how much of a movie fag this guy was
This thread is a real nostalgia trip I remember watching the anime in like 2007 or something.
I tried to read the manga afterwards but didn't get past the vampires or whatever they were. Thanks OP for dumping.
>>280207363The Vampires don't stay for too long though. Just a footnote really in the manga.
What's with this retarded translation?
>>280207515We like to do a little trolling
>>280207558>>280207105>it's butter dog>>280205924>about retarded>>280205865>what the heezy
>>280207632The butter dog one makes sense. I mean, they said that in the anime at least.
I assume they said that in a previous chapter, but it was a different translation so it seems like it came out of nowhere.
Fuck you want ol square ass nigga?
could you please download the manga from nyaa, jesus
>>280207709>The butter dog one makes sense. I mean, they said that in the anime at least.Just double checked the official translation as well and it's there. I just assumed it was the translator memeing because of how janky the rest of the translation sounds.
>>280208372Yeah, I'm pretty sure chapter 5 is using the official translation, but chapter 4 wasn't.
>>280205572Dogs are fucking perverts. They're always licking intimate parts the mammals they just met. I wonder why people like them.
>>280208299>>280208197Anon we warned you about this. You should have downloaded the whole manga already in order to make things easier for you instead of just posting by the seats of your pants. And also check other translations/scanlations beforehand.
On the other hand, if you're actually gonna post the whole volume just do it, you can't just pause whenever you feel like it, it breaks the pacing
>>280208924I hear you my nigga, I'm taking lunch, so the pacing will be back to normal shortly
>>280206572It's precisely because it's "semi-realist" that it's uncanny.
>>280207956What the fuck is Bart doing here.
So do you think there's more to the aliens than what's shown and said in the manga? Like, do they actually have backstories that aren't elaborated on but were at least thought up, or is everything we're given all there is to them and anything that isn't given an explanation just doesn't have one in the first place?
Alright, you sold me. This manga looks fun and random. I'll follow your threads so you better not chicken out.
>>280209817You're actually reading this for the first time with no prior knowledge?
>>280209817You're gonna get so spoiled it's not even gonna be funny.
>>280209749Hmmmm, I think they all come from their own planet, can't remember if it explained how they got there though
>>280209817You're in for sex, drugs, and rock and roll!!!!!
>>280209900Yep. I was only acquainted with its popularity.
>>280209915The risk of being spoiled is part and parcel of browsing /a/ though there's usually a lesser chance that I'm gonna get spoiled in a daily/storytime thread compared to the rest of /a/.
>>280210044Hell yeah!!
Chapter 7 now commencing, hold on to your penis
>>280210044I mean, did Oku actually come up with backstories for each of them that go beyond the details we're given, or did he only bother to think of the stuff actually in the manga because he didn't need to have more than that, like why the aliens who don't have given reasons for being on Earth are there?
For lack of a better term, is there "hidden lore" that isn't being given even though it was thought of?
>>280210383Their just friendly immigrants, stop being such a bigot and asking why they have to be here. Learn some tolerance anon.
>>280210566As anon said before, the author really takes inspiration from movies.
>>280210641What movie is that a reference to?
>>280210723Oh no, the old politician died...
So how are our boys doing?
>>280205572I think it's quite clear what the dog is doing.
>>280205677They have to kill Bart Simpson?
>>280210689I wouldn't say it's specific to a film. Plenty of movies do that kind of “Zoom-in shot” from the earth to the place where the characters live.
>>280207105Butter dog
Dog with the butter
>>280210723Gruesome.
You should respect the rules when you're in a death game.

These guns are awesome, sicks about the delay though
Captain save a alien has arrived on scene
finished the dinosaur mission a couple of days ago. fucking hell that was a rush. I can't wait for osaka now. and then apparently it all goes downhill after that but whatever. this shit is really entertaining when it wants to be.
>>280205066 (OP)remember when gantz looked liked this? Good times
>>280211691You still have a good amount of good content to go, it mostly goes downhill halfway into the final arc. The art peaks at Osaka too (but goes downhill after that due to overuse of cheap looking 3d).
Kinda feel bad for the Lil guy. They should have just called ICE on him
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJ5ICtGn6u8
>>280207105Even at the beginning Kei was making the most sense out of all of them.
>>280212364All he wanted to do was to share his onion with humans ;_;
>>280212486Wonder what made him suit up
>>280212486He was a moralfag.
>noooo you cannot kill the illegal alien
>>280212534>just as youre getting hit by a train you get teleported into a room with strangers>a giant black ball in the room opens giving you weapons and suits>people start teleporting in front of youHmmm best NOT to take a suit and a gun! Seems_legit.avi
Gantz is such a 2000s series with Black Lagoon it is the best at that
>>280209749It's a metaphor for border patrol.
>>280212579>proceeds to kill the most aliens out of anyone in the mangaMy fuarking hero
https://files.catbox.moe/k9g4co.jpg
>>280212645Its Men In Black reference more like and that was legitimately making fun of border security.
>>280210383Nah, he just ended up drawing whatever seemed cool to him. Most things in the manga dont make sense anyhow, its just cool for cools sake. And thats why its so great desu.
>>280212688I was being snarky, Oku was just making shit up as he went, it's pretty obvious. He could have fleshed it out more with the Chibi arc, but failed to do so.
>>280213434Gomenasai anon kun
man i've always wanted to fuck the femboy
>>280213866A what?
Dies anybody here know what that means?
>>280214231It's a theory that people will genocide if instructed to by an accepted authority figure.
>>280214395>Are you the producer?Bruh
Ah, the oven gets turned up from here on out!
When ogrechad meets gorilla-ogrechad
More sooner bait for the zoom zooms reading along
>>280214395>>280214424>Is this a Febreze commercial?>>280214776Is there an actual ringtone that would sound like that?
What even does that sound like?
Kurono is literally me. I don't care about the bitch, I care about being cool, being cool will get me the bitch.
>>280215284>>280215321>he actually thought that would work>>280215394Wake up!
>>280212610That top panel looks pretty hardcore.
I wonder what movie character the author was inspired by?
Raven alien was my favourite
>>280207956Ay caramba dijo el bar sinso
What was the fucking deal with the guns anyway? I never understood why everyone was so shitty with them.
>one to lock, one to hit
Is it that hard to push two buttons? Why does it seem like no one can aim for shit?
That's gonna be hard to wash out
Thus concludes Volume 1 of Gantz Storytime! Hope everyone had a fun read. Hopefully this thread stays alive until Volume 2 storytime. Otherwise, ciao!
>>280216508Thanks OP always wanted to read Gantz, guess now is the time
>>280216508thanks op see you tomorrow!
The first five or so chapters were kinds lack luster besides the train deaths and big titty chick. But man does it ramp up and go 0-100. I can see the potential.
>>280216508Have you decided to stick with the official translation, or is it still going to be a gamble which version each chapter will be?
>>280217088Which version was this one?
>>280212610Maybe humans are the real monsters.
>>280216508Cute dumb frog poster, may you somehow make it through the whole dump and get all the tits and gore posted without it being a total shitshow
>>280217113I'm pretty sure every chapter in this thread aside from chapter 4 was the official Dark Horse version.
>>280205572why did oku feel the need to have this scene
>>280217179Whew! Then thank God tachiyomi didn't crash
>>280209108>>280209163Ah yes the beginning of Kei's cluckrono phase
>>280217764The original incel
>>280205066 (OP)If you plan on doing another dump go download Hakuneko
You can thank me later
>>280207203was this guy just lying for no reason? what was his deal again
>>280218068He knew trying to explain would be a waste of time so he just invented that story to make it more believable
>>280209817>tripfag not being the one doing the dumpwe used to shoot people like you
>>280214395enter real vegetables
>>280206826What made him change to his suit? They have no idea what those are for.
>>280208931The whole onion alien segment was so funny in the anime.
>>280210224People are spoiling it be careful. Go read on your own.
>>280215075I love how self-aware the MC is.
>>280219073That's why I've been saying the zoomers would love it!
>>280219394But zoomers have no self-growth
>>280219631But they are hyper self aware, kei kurono can show them the way
>>280207257Truly the Hideo Kojima of manga.
>>280210689>>280210723What's the sound supposed to be? I'm still fucking pissed there are no good Gantz videogames. It should do fucking great for a coop third person shooter.
>>280210890It would help to actually hear the rules beforehand. How could politician-kun connect the dots between
>beep beepand
>BOOM splat
>>280220819Did you play the one that I know existed?
The one that's apparently part dating sim with tsundere Nishi?
>>280214336I'm a zoomer. What's a sixth sense? What's men in black? what's the sixth sense? What are radio aerobics? I don't understand a thing in this manga.
>>280214776Kei... Are you really gonna let a huge boobed teenage girl wearing nothing but a school jacket roam midnight tokyo without money by herself? She's not a girl anymore, really?
>>280218465High IQ. Same with Kaiji. He saw someone confident with experience already doing it (the kid), saw a timer and decided it's fucking essential.
>>280206351I quite like it. Better than how they look much later in the manga, but we'll get there when we get there
>>280210723OH N-
>>280214395ENTER
>>280216417kek
>>280221278Never thought about him seeing nishi. That makes more sense.
>>280216508Thank you for posting. It was good.
>>280211972>(but goes downhill after that due to overuse of cheap looking 3d).Oku has always been interested in using technology to cut corners in manga. He seems to be pretty into AI nowadays.
>>280223454Didn't he buy some 3D stuff after he made a bunch of money with one manga, then he made a manga using that and it flopped and made him more cynical?
>>280216508Reminder that you should spoiler any images with tits in them, just to be safe.
Tits are allowed on /a/ as long as they're under a spoiler and from an anime or manga.
>>280223490Yes, and that cynicism is what inspired Inuyashiki.
Can't wait to see what he makes when he's inevitably shat on for trying to publish an AI manga.
>>280223623Wouldn't it have inspired this?
>>280221840How did you not get that?
>>280216508The madlad.
Protect our young newfag at all cost.
>>280218743I'll be careful.
>>280220819>Truly the Hideo KojimaWhat does that make Fujimoto?
>>280226674Fujimoto is the Tarantino of manga
>>280226907I can kinda see it.
>>280226907So who's the Kojima of movies and the Tarantino of video games?
>>280216508OP, are these still the best scans that Gantz has? I remember reading it and loved it, but holy fuck the quality and text was so shit sometimes
>>280223905I could've sworn his fully 3DCG flop manga came after Gantz.
>>280216508You're one of the good ones, frogposter
>>280223454Why not just use assistants?
Volume 2 thread currently up! Get in here!
>>280231813
>>280205677I can't believe it took them this long to pay attention to the big black ball in the middle of the room.
>>280207203So you can say that there is an impostor among us?
>>280210548>Happy that he can feel pain againThat's actually heart-warming.
>>280214654He seems upset.
>>280234710get out of here dork
