>>280907247
>>280934759>chadzumi got the killkuronocels...
RIP to the hardest boss so far...
>>280934759MY FUARKING HEROES
>>280934974that's me in the background cheering for our heroes
Oni Aliens?
Would've been stomped by the Osaka team
WE CAN BE HEROES! JUST FOR ONE DAY!
>>280934523 (OP)Installing EDF5 as I read this thread
Inaba you are no hero go away bitch
>>280934523 (OP)So the original OP bolted right? I'm glad I called him a retard
>>280935066donut sensei...
>bro you're like, my hero and shit...
Chadzumi was ready to kill the civilians
Nobody cares about Inaba lmao
>>280935248I wish muscle rider was my dad
you should've died alongside your rapist buddies
I'm too distracted by Reika's torpedo tits
Kurono doesn't want anyone left behind, Kato is proud!
>>280934523 (OP)>Decided to stay off 4chan for a while>Missed out gantz storytimeWTF
How long does Gantz take to laser people back to the room? Sometimes feels like they go one after the other, while others it holds on them for like a minute
WE ARE SO BACK SENSEIBROS!
>>280935505Gantz is an asshole. Always teleports the people with the biggest injuries last.
>>280935572>>280935629I love how Izumi is astonished the guys he massacred somehow survive the missions and score some points
wonder how many points the oni sub-bosses were worth, 30-50 each?
what option would you choose anons?
We are coming back cherrybros!
>>280935692give me the gep gun, I'll have a garem of reika's in no time
>>280935751>everyone's shocked that he wants his bro backSakata is a true one.
I like how most were smiling when Sakurai came back, he really is the loved younger brother of the team.
>>280935341Mmh I didn't really notice but that girl must've been incinerated as well
back to the beginning cherrybros
>>280935818That or Oku must have forgotten her like he did with the dog
>>280935818the girl died alongside her rapists
i think in one of the panels you can see her blow up burned remains
>>280935843Animals would just be stuck there forever even if they kill aliens, unless they can make a choice somehow.
>>280935520>gantz:lemme just teleport the man with the most mortal injuries last Those are some strong old man organs he got I guess
Chadzumi on that grind! But where's the weapon tho? He sure could use it in a... certain situation later on...
BEST GIRL!
WILLINGLY KEKS HERSELF FOR HER BELOVED!
>>280935915>he never gets to use the Z-gun>Nishi was the smarter one when he just went and grabbed right there
>>280935976How can a 15 years old attract so much pussy?
>>280935976Because she wants you to be happy, ya dingus!
>>280934759Well that... was anticlimactic.
After all that, they managed to decapitate him without their suits?
>>280935066>now that the threat has passed we will call an ambulanceTh-thanks. *bleeds out*
>>280935206That fukken panda, man.
>>280935976Reika usurping best girl by reviving her
>>280935941all the redditors calling Reika a horrible person forget this very important part. She did everything right before deciding she wanted to be loved for a week before armageddon
Beautiful, brave and kind, you are an angel Reika!
Tae is the worst girl.
It's funny to me that people were saying at the start of this mission that "most of the cast survives it" when like 50% of the starting players died.
>>280935248The best part is that the kid doesn't have to go home. It's not like he'd know how to get there anyway.
>>280935306>>280935341>>280935520Fuck yeah, old man and sensei, but fuck you, Inaba.
>>280936070Most of the cast with any real personality.
>>280935915>"That's just like Izumi... Geez, that Guy haha, always thinking about fighting and stuff, right ol' sport? Boy, I'm glad this fella never fone anything bad to me before"Wtf, Kurono
Seibros, he's talking about us right? RIGHT!?
Gantz is giving these points like candy, this is probably their most promising squad as of yet and they're giving them the change to break free like its nothing
oh shit is this THE chapter?
One of the greatest revives in history coming in.
>>280935814Welcome back, Cherry.
>>280935941>>280935976It's genuinely painful that she's such a perfect woman.
Kurono would be a piece of shit to betray Tae, but he absolutely deserves to have them both at this point.
>>280936142All these selfless people... Imagine how strong a team they could make if they kept stacking revives!
>>280936126Im glad Kurono realizes the value of bringing back Sniper-Sama from the Buddha mission
Please can we do the MOVIE NIGHT ON MONDAY. I DONT WANT TO MISS WATCHING IT WITH MY GANTZ NIGGAS. PLEASEEEEEEE
>>280936165So, you just need a name? What if there were more than one person with that name?
>>280936115they killed a lot of aliens desu they were fucking zerging everywhere
>>280936067In a world were Gantz exist, aliens exists and so many civilians die without knowing what the fuck its going on, you need to be brain dead to choose "freedom".
>>280936180the movie is pretty bad imo. The musical score is horrendous and the story changes are kinda lame.
>>280936212I'm surprised that no character ever suggested this.
That their chances of survival in the fucked up world are better inside Gantz having access to the gantz suit and weapons.
>>280936142my favorite GANTZer, just a purehearted oji-san in a world of chaos
>>280936215Still, IVE NEVER SEEN A MOVIE WITH /A/NONS BEFORE. PLEASE CAN WE WATCH THE MOVIE ON MONDAY. PLEASEEEEEE. IM LITERALLY THE OP WHO STARTED IT ALL, I JUST WANT THIS ONE FAVOR!!!!!
>>280936212statistically speaking, it's better than being forced into missions.
>>280936212When you put it like that, you're entirely right. These people in this room are aware of the hunts, and they have seen the widespread destruction and civilian slaughter of the more recent ones. They'd be fools to say "I want to forget my knowledge and lose my chance at survival." Izumi came back to the room for a reason.
>>280936212>>280936231for Kurono in particular is a dumb choice because Izumi is still around and the guy have a hateboner for him, there is literally no guarantee he won't try to do something against him just to prove a point
>>280936215>the story changes are kinda lame.Really? I remember reading the manga and thinking
>how the fuck are they adapting an arc that comes late into the story as a stand alone filmand was pleasantly surprised with the little changes they made to make it more of a stand alone story for someone thats not familiar with the source material
>>280936212Especially since you forget all about it. But other characters don't which would be even more dangerous.
>>280936195What are the odds another Masaru Kato got gantz'd in Tokyo?
>>280936235I love that the author explored that theme further in Inuyashiki. It's definitely in my top 10 favorites.
this boss was bullshit too ngl
>>280936225Jesus CHRIST look at Reika's body. She's a hentai character.
Entire AI slop models are built to put random characters' heads on her body.
Oku wasn't the only one that forgot about the vampires. Real smart to pick "freedom" when they've been attacked outside of missions already.
Alright guys. Gantz O watch along thread has been moved to Monday at 7PM EST. See you all there!
>>280936215>>280936276I don't remember the changes
>>280936327lol good one op, still streaming it tomorrow
>>280936355Stream it on Monday too then. For OP
>>280936290It honestly pissed me off how stupidly overpowered it was even compared to everything that came after it.
Slaughtered absolutely everyone with that dumb laser and time reversal Regen.
But as much as I hate it, despair and hopelessness and tits are the driving theme of Gantz. If it wasn't so bleak it wouldn't be what it is.
So will the stream happen before story time osaka?
Would be weird since it spoils a lot, but also changes a bunch.
>>280936394>>280936355Wait, can we just change the time from 7PM to 4PM or 5PM EST? Does that work for everyone?
>>280936409Yeah the watchalong should be after we finish the last Osaka volume
THERE HE IS!!!!!
Funny how this is the first and last time we see Kato and Izumi at the same time
I think it would be best to watch the movie before reading the manga. The manga adds so much more Rated R shit that it's like a different story.
>>280936461RE-ENTER A SAVIOR
>>280936461PLAYER 2: START
>>280936474well yeah the manga is better
>>280936461JOBBER RE-ENTERS
>>280936461i admit it
I baseded the fuck out when I got to this part for the first time
I got up and fucking cheered like a retard in my house
>>280936461Welcome back, second-in-command!
>>280936409It should be done after the arc is finished since it contains huge spoilers, even if it's slightly different. Dunno why everyone is so impatient.
>>280934523 (OP)>>280935066I've seen some posts in other threads asking how popular would Reika be in real world terms or something like that but couldn't answer.
Personally I've always thought that she was modeled after Reon Kadena an idol that was popular while Gantz was running.
Physically at least she looks a lot like her, I don't know if she's meant to be the same level of popularity or not.
And to be honest I think Tae too was inspired by a real idol, but I have no idea who she could be
>>280936461Now try to think about how many years took to Kurono and Kato being together in a mission
Still as handsome and cool as the day we lost you...
Can the stream tommorow please start at 4PM EST, if we're still going by EST time.
>>280936517Gantz is addictive. Just look at what Izumi did to get his fix.
>>280936554We have worse things to worry about Kato
it's bullshit he didn't get the points for the 100 arms, he was killed by a cheap shot
>>280935814sensei is so cool now, nothing like the selfish murdering incel he used to be before gantz
>>280936554Welcome back Kato, you've missed thousands of civilians being slaughtered wholesale in the past month.
Hope your kid brother's okay, since you've been dead for a while.
>>280936574What could have possibly led Izumi to pick freedom in the first place?
It's an impossible thing to imagine him doing now, he must have had a completely different personality.
>>280936634Our squad... and Inaba
>>280936626If I had to guess, there was a particularly bad hunt and he got spooked. Maybe his own "statues" hunt where he was the sole-surviving Kurono, and he ran away with his tail between his legs after scraping by.
>>280936554>where's the statueYou have to wait for some time
poor guy, must be a lot to take in
>>280936613Points are reset with revivals.
>>280936626The panel that showed his team looked similar to how Kuronos team looks at him when wanting him to get his freedom. Maybe Chadzumi really did exist and was the awesome leader of the previous squad.
>>280936613>>280936669Technically they're not reset: the "revived" person is a new copy. The new copy doesn't have any previous points - the old copy did and that copy is dead.
>>280936657Lmao those two bottom right panels are just identical
>>280936689Technicality. Gantz is just being a cocksucker because its more entertaining for the one betting on hunts
>>280936706I don't remember Kato being this fucking tall
MUSCLE RIDER WITH THE 100 POINTS TOO!
>>280936732What an absolutely absurd amount of points for this mission. There were like 80 total for the mission before Tae and 30 for her, and this mission is already over, what, 300?
>>280936732i appreciate that gantz respects the child's wish there. calls him muscle man rider too
>>280936732Maybe Gantz really don't give a shit about penny pinching the points anymore because it needs more strong players
>>280936770Oh, boy. Can't wait to see Kishimoto or even Lara Croft again!
>>280935206>>280935144wait now I'm wondering. Are they being actually teleported or one body is being destroyed while another gets cloned on location?
>>280936770Sniperbros we're here
>>280936787we all know kurono wants to revive his nigga friends from the dino mission
>>280936798One of my favorite chapters
I forgot alot of stuff from the manga, but not this, this part here is just so memorable to me.
Isn't it obvious that he bonded with the kid?
>>280936798Just imagine if she were revived only to immediately die again in the next mission.
>>280936796If we're being honest, the latter is more likely than the former, but then again, when they've being sent out they frequently comment with their mouths (in the room) that their eyes (out of the room) see the new location. Kurono had that fumble trying to dodge a truck early on, remember? So it has to be teleportation.
Kaze is a dad now! He just can't leave his son alone!
>>280936851Kaze... Revive the male model
I forget this is how Niggshi revives
>saying this to the guy that kills aliens with his fists
>>280936872>the wandering ruffian is tamed by his sense of masculine responsibilityYou love to see it.
>>280936903>I don't need your puny toys, boy.
>>280936903Maybe Gantz has alien killer boxing gloves
>>280936732>(for now)gantz is jealous he couldn't come up with a better nickname
>>280936865>when they've being sent out they frequently comment with their mouths (in the room) that their eyes (out of the room) see the new location.I never thought about that. I guess that gives credence to the idea that aliens captured with the Y-gun go somewhere
>>280935692>LaraCroft.pngRevive that girl with ginormous tits to see if I can fuck her. If Kurono asked her nicely and was game, imagine the things she would do if learns you brought her from the dead after surviving countless hunts.
>Friendzoned and cuckedCan blow her in piece and start again, I guess.
>>280936920>gantz calls sakata DIMWIT>is the first one to get kaze's first instinct (father mode is second instinct)
He's bringing back homo obviously!
>>280936720Do any of those guys ever acknowledge it? I remember something latter that freaks them out, but they never understand the implications of it.
By the way so what was up with bird mission and Kei's memories? It's never explained and it isn't consistent with the way the transfer usually works
>>280936634Old man x Reika!
Alright so Gantz O movie starts at 4PM EST tommorow guys, be there or be square!
Oh he's really thinking about it
>>280936634Kato look the dog evolved into a panda!
>>280937014Bring back the piss kid from bird mission so takeshi can have a brother
>>280936981Big spoiler:
Imagine if everyone one of these people "revived" Kurono. We know that this is an option later. Imagine how fucking ridiculous a team of five Kuronos + other people would be.
I forgot how pretty she was
>>280937040Gantz really likes there to be a team pet doesn't he
Maybe he thinks it's good for morale
>>280936982The entire subplot about Gantz being manmade through information relayed by an obese retarded German woman went nowhere, as far as I remember.
>>280936212the death rate for gantzers is much higher than for random civilians
LaraCroftbros ain't no way he's not choosing us!
I wasn't here since the early story time so i don't remember, but isn't there a clone of Kishimoto out there?
>>280937133No, the clone was the one who died. The original is still alive.
>>280936982>By the way so what was up with bird mission and Kei's memories?The transport back is supposed to bring you back "whole," so it uses the last save state of you that wasn't injured. The actual rules of this are a bit flimsy, but since Kurono fell onto a house he had presumably broken some bones, and the revival would be before that (so he had some memories missing, like his victory. When he revives after the statue mission, he doesn't show any recollection of HOW anyone died - he only deduces THAT they died because he is alone.
>>280937133yes her original is still out there, gantz just plucked her at death's door but she was hospitalised and recovered
Yeah! We got this in the bag Larabros!
>>280937164this was my interpretation of it as well, but it's never outright stated and is left to the reader's imagination to put two and two together
>>280937132>>280937173If we're being honest it would have been cruel to revive her, since now he has two other girls pining for him an she didn't have any other personality traits.
>revive Lara
>convince Reika to join in the harem, she wouldn't refuse
>dump Tae
>threesomes with two bombshells every night
GREAT SUCCESS!
>>280937214You're a fool to exclude Tae from the harem if you're already going for a harem end. Tae gives unsolicited blowjobs.
UNSOLICITED.
it's coming larabros! i can feel it!
>>280937242>unsolicited blowjobsthis, in reality, is not that cool, actually more annoying than anything
>>280937275Are you speaking from experience?
>>280937251Here we go grandma bros, time for our dark horse to shine
>>280937251Show me guy from the first mission who figured out how the guns worked!
whoops this was before than
>>280937251>>280937242nah, it would crush Tae's self esteem, imagine sharing your bf with a 10/10 and a 11/10 while you are a 5/10 at best
>>280937087Why does she need to be revived? The original is still alive and her copy will be forced to participate in death games with rapey teammates and enemies.
Kishibros... Larabros... I don't feel so good...
>>280937339I thought this happened later
>>280937366HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH
>>280937110Yeah, but at least you go out fighting.
>>280936865>that their eyes (out of the room) see the new location. Kurono had that fumble trying to dodge a truck early on, remember? So it has to be teleportationoh yeah forgot about that
>>280937366>>280937395https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZAQBG4Qbt8
CURSE YOU HIROYA OKUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
>>280937395It was him (Nishi) Mr Krabs, he was number one!
>>280937403everything was going too well so kei had to throw a wrench out
>>280937339E-
>>280937366-N-
>>280937395-T-
>>280937428-ER!
Four fucking pages for that, by the way. The PACING, bros.
>>280937366>decides to add Nishi to his haremBut why?
>>280937164>>280937366I hope someone tells him he died like a bitch screaming for mommy.
>>280937403Didn't he make it to 100 multiple times basicly all by himself? Seems like a good choice.
this guy got killed by a mook remember?
>>280937428Did Nishi end up doing anything at all?
>>280937461A good harem needs boys and girls. The perfect raito is 4:1.
>>280937197She had very little time to be developed, but there's some foundation there. For one, we know she trains kickboxing and we see her hold her own against the final boss of that mission.
That tell us she's disciplined and brave, which sets her apart from Tae, who's more submissive, or Reika, who's more on the glamorous side. Both of them are more on the passive role, while Lara takes the initiative. In fact, before dying she asked Kurono to date her once they get out of there.
She would offer an interesting dynamic, because she would be the kind of girl who does stupid things just to impress his man and would close her fist and ready to punch Tae while wondering why? Why Tae and not hers?
>>280937395>>280937428I know the pool of decent players is very shallow but this doesn't seem like a good decision
>>280937173>>280937132I'm still disappointed that she wasn't brought back
>>280937403>>280937473That was Kurono's thought process. Nishi had a bad mission but he was strong, like Izumi. He wants the team to be strong, so he revived someone who would contribute to that, in theory.
All of this is strictly "in theory.
>>280937489>Reika, who's more on the glamorous side. Both of them are more on the passive role,Reika got 100 points, bro. You don't get 100 points by being passive. Reika is, unironically, a perfect package of looks, personality, and even fighting prowess. If Tae didn't exist, she would be THE perfect wife for Kurono.
>yeah you died pissing your pants and crying for your mommy like a bitch
>>280937484Yes.
>>280937509Hey, he remembered the name of the guy he met twice!
not even the least grateful kek what an asshole
>>280937559>rememberedHe last saw him like 6 seconds ago from his perspective. Kei's name was probably one of the last things he heard spoken out loud. It's not really much of a "remembered."
>>280937581>Okay Gantz, you know what, this was a mistake. Can I choose someone else instead? Please?
>>280937549Lara and sniper were also pretty good. Not as experienced as Nishi but with great potential, and more importantly better at teamwork.
I think this is one of those choices made because the author thinks it's better for drama and not because it's the choice the character would actually make
>gasp! Is that Izumi-senpai! MY HERO!?
Why did Izumi quit in the first place? Unless his personality was completely different back then.
>>280937652it also makes kurono choice of leaving even worse because he just taked about how rules are changing and normal people getting massacred left and right
>>280937652There's no question that this decision was made for the drama, on the meta level, but Nishi is "the most knowledgeable person" in Kurono's mind. Since they want knowledge, and the team is strong enough to stand up to him now (since they know the suit functions by heart, possibly even better than Nishi does) they might be able to extract info from him more easily than they would in the past.
>>280937701At least the panda and small child have excuses, Inaba.
>>280937727Now the moment we've been waiting for.
>>280937490Well yeah this is going to cause the third massacre Kei is indirectly responsible for. He really needs to stop doing that.
>>280937366>>280936798Kek, I remember the editor note on this chapter being something like: "You gonna to wait a little more".
>>280937552>half a yearHas anyone ever tried making a Gantz timeline to figure out when things happen based on these details?
I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't perfect, since Oku probably didn't meticulously keep track of everything, but I'd still like to see what somebody can come up with.
>>280937701>last panelPanels that aged like milk
>>280937759Honestly I'm surprised he didn't have over 200.
>>280937673Why are you such a cunt Izumi? That's clearly your former teammate!
>>280937759>>280937783>Imagine Kurono picks being freed>Next page is "T,t,t,that's all, folks!">The manga got axed at that point.
>>280937818>I will ressucted everyone, no matter how many times it takes>woah, Kato is back? >neat, guess I don't need to do this shit anymore
painfully ironic that they are doing this thinking he'll be safe and free yet leaving Gantz it's what's kills him in the end...
>>280937851This is probably what made Izumi pick it last time. Teammates that have seen the bravery and leadership want you to be free.
>>280937484As far as I remember:
>some info about Katastrophe>close to nothing on missions>surprinsigly saves Takeshi life>a mid final boss fight with Kurono
>>280937851thanks for the spoiler, asshole
>b-but you weren't obligated to look at ityou're still a cunt
I'm sure there's no group around that's been interfering on missions and trying to kill you guys and anyone affiliated with you! Yep just leave and become a defenseless civilian, nothing bad it's gonna happen!
>>280937890but you did look at it tho
Halfway through
>>280937890>clicking on spoilers on a storytimengmi
Honestly reviving Kato and then washing your hands of the whole thing is kind of a dick move
>>280937890>>280937918He's right. At least put a warning before, especially as the dumper dude
>>280937916 see that's a better way to phrase it. Teasing the future developments OP you feel like those children in school who know better but intentionally fuck up for attention
Honestly, amazing development for Kurono
>>280937844And he didn't even save him. For all he knows Kato might as well just die next mission.
>>280938083CONGRATULATIONS
>>280938083>Congratulations!
>>280938083Now it's time for Izumi and Nishi to shine! Our new heroes!
>>280938083>evangelioncongratulationspng
>>280938083Congratulations!
>>280937918spoilers vary a lot in degree
What a ride it was Kuronobros
>>280938214Wait, did actually not notice before now?
the funny thing is that Nidhi is basically the reason the Tokyo team sucks so much.
Just look at how competent the old man and reika got with some training.
Imagine if lara and sniper had the same support, and who knows how many talented gantzers they've missed out on
>>280938246Well, that was nice character development.
Shame it was all a dream and we are back to pre-Lara Croft sex Kurono
>>280938170If you're a first time reader on a storytime and you see a spoiler box underneath an obvious impactful panel it's on you for clicking it, even on accident. Learn to be responsible for your actions dude.
>>280934759>End the last volume on a massive cliffhanger>It gets resolved 2 pages into the beginning of the next one lmaoI remember bitching about this to a friend of mine when I was reading it blind kek
Kuronobros... our development...
>>280938316I love how retarded OP never mans up for his actions and excuses himself instead
It's okay OP we got used to it
>>280937916Considering the vampires have already attacked you in the off-season, you're a massive retard for picking this.
Maybe THIS is why Gantz-after-the-dinosaurs is looked down on. The mission itself was great but this whole sequence of events is pure plot-required stupidity.
>>280938032On top of the vampire threat, does "erase all memories" erase your memories of Tae? You know, the whole reason you're choosing this? You didn't meet her until after the hunts started so it's not implausible for Gantz to send your brain 6-months in the past.
call Reika! you'll be surprised
>>280935206I love the friendship between massive edgelord Izumi and the panda
>>280938316and you learn to take responsibility for your actions.
Not all spoilers are equally important. Some minor spoilers nobody minds seeing.
If you're dropping a major spoiler it would be good form to give a warning
>>280937984My guy didn't think about the consequences for one second.
>>280938372>Tae>who's thatCalled it, you fucking idiot.
I wonder how he'll react to all his "friends" being dead, and his classroom being a murder scene that was closed off.
>>280938401>Hinata moment
>>280938372>he doesn't even know that he's not a virgin anymore
>>280935722>Doesn't even think about it and brings Cherry backMY FUARKING SENSEI
Ew! She is extra creepy today!
>>280938445I wonder if that means he IS a virgin again.
Damn, Tae gets to take his virginity after he took hers?
Seriously, what is wrong with her eyes!?
>>280938400>>280938408but then think about it, what would one do? Be a gantzer for their entire life? Because the longer you stay the more memory you'll lose when you leave.
>>280938486>I swallowed your semen
>>280938493Die on purpose and let yourself get revived with the memories up till your death.
>Reika steps up as the leader now that Kurono is gone
THAT'S WHY SHE IS THE BEST GIRL!!
What would you want to see in a Gantz inspired indie game?
Multiplayer, shop area, multiple objectives, buying your freedom, surviving without a limb..
Urban map, traversibility, capture gun and lethal gun, cutting enemy limbs.
>>280936142I love ojii-san so goddamn much, bros. He's one of my favorite Gantz characters.
>>280938486She's Japanese..
>>280938493Well gee, let's see...
>get a super suit>get to physically fight aliens with scifi weaponry>get hot bitches in skintight suits>get a purpose and meaning in your lifeor you can return to normal, boring life, that you hated before Gantz gave it any meaning to you.
Yes, I would go full Izumi battle-tard mode in that respect.
>>280936461RE-ENTER
MY OTHER MOTHERFUCKING HERO KATO
>The psychopath that got most people on this mess and doesn't care about team work should be the leader of course!
>>280938567I knew Chadzumi was a leader. Sadly he has turned into a loner samurai warrior after getting his memory wiped.

>>280938508Actually, you fucked up, OP
>>280938534A live service gacha game for better weapons and variations of the suit/powers.
It would have to be hardcore as the only mode: if you die, you lose your character, but friends can revive you for the 100 points.
Parties are 8 people against unclear mission objectives.
>>280938583Seriously, Kei is an asshole for leaving Kato alone like this.
>>280938567>that smug Izumi
>>280937366>>280937395>>280937428>Could've brought back Lara Croft to kick some ass>They brought back this worthless waste of a jobber instead because he was popular with the readers for some reason>What's worse, they had to permakill Izumi because he mogged the fuck out of Nishi at being a badass edgelordI will never stop seething at this decision, fuck you Oku
>>280937321>nah, it would crush Tae's self esteem, imagine sharing your bf with a 10/10 and a 11/10 while you are a 5/10 at bestShe would tolerate the harem because her man is chad enough to attract gigastacies. Women get off from being with high status men because it makes themselves high status by association.
>>280938607oh that's not on the file i'm using
>>280937851>Choose freedom>Lose all your character development and go back to being an asshole>Still die and get brought back to Gantz anywayMan, choosing freedom really is a meme.
>>280937890>Read spoilers properly tagged under spoiler tags>Gets mad anywayBased brainlet
>>280938806This is really sad to think about. The world having to move on. Those you were responsible for having to make ends meet. Good panels.
the part where Kato lays on the floor of the empty apartment is so good, i can relate
>>280938343Which gunpla does Kurono have on top of his TV, bros?
>>280938828yes, amazing sequence of panels considering Oku is not very good with those
aw man, i have the biggest smile on my face right now...
>>280938583Reika isn't too bad, but I think Kato would've done a better job as the leader for the next mission.
>>280938862>Oku is not very good with thoseOP are we reading the same manga?
>>280938904I just think Oku has very weak to mediocre panel skills on the SoL sections of the manga, he does have the occasional good ones too, but on this chapter they have been amazing
so happy for Kato and his lil' bro man
what a great page, I care about kato and his little brother way more than Tae and Kurono honestly.
>>280938891>>280938944>>280939006>>280939030>>280939046This is by far my favorite moment in all of Gantz. Absolutely amazing scene.
>>280939046The people who bitch about the ending always forget that the MCs both deserved to be happy for all the bullshit they went through.
>bro did you see all the dead bodies and carnage? It was awesome!
>>280939182>memory wiped Kurono does not bat an eye to new classmates given that his previous class got massacredweird, guess Oku forgot about that little detail
>kurono you look like your character development was undone or something
nice panel of tae compared to the ones earlier
never make eye contact with the school shooter in the hallway
>>280938613gacha games are anti-gameplay and not fit for indies besides being evil.
I imagine you're a thirdie playing gacha exclusively, an absolute braindead pleb.
Memory loss must fuck you up with this many events happening
losing memory and leaving the game is such a bad deicison
didn't notice this until now? what about this morning?
>>280939380Good thing they didn't film a sex tape
>>280935751This guy is so fucking cool
I mean it's not unreasonable to think that considering the circumstances
>>280939006>>280939030>>280939046I don't like Kato as much as developed-Kurono but man, this is a great sequence.
>>280939166I hate this.
I hate this.
I hate this.
>>280939202>people are saying it was computer graphicsPeople like this are ALLOWED to exist and in a better, more just world, this would not be the case.
>>280939520>stalker girl>has photos with her, both smiling
>>280939554taebros... not like this...
choosing freedom is the worst choice in Gantz
So, does anyone here think they could scan the Gantz Manual Remix if you were able to get your hands on it?
Because I fount one online. And there's only one.
And only the first Gantz Manual has been scanned and put online.
Also, it says it costs ¥30,534
>>280939587Real freedom costs more than just 100 points.
>>280939380Minor oversight from the no-memories Gantz committee.
>>280939346Gantz games have two options: "play the story/side stories as the main characters or a your-self-insert" like the SAO games, or a live-service MMO with gacha elements for monetization.
I did not pick the video game timeline we live in, but I cannot lie about the current state of play either.
>>280939520Kurono what the fuck. Why would "a stalker" have her photos in YOUR room? They'd be in HER room, retard.
>>280939641>she's got a photo of them together as well
>>280935248my smile and optimism where restored.
>>280935976+100 best girls points
>>280936212If you are aware of the dark future that awaits Earth, choosing freedom is something you would never do.
Otherwise I say there is an higher chance of death being a Gantz player rather than a civilian. We so lots of civilians die last few missions, but the death rate of Gantz players is waaay higher.
>>280939617thanks for dumping, I'm planning on taking over the storytime tomorrow for a double feature + movie watchalong
Movie will be at 4PM EST right?
>>280939688aight, please post the whole volume tho, it has a ton of important and cool moments
>>280939724that's just what the OG op wants because he can't make it
>>280936428 >>280937024I'm planning on having it at 7pm after the volume 21 (osaka) dump
of course this depends on what the readers here want but I'm trying to go through with the originally planned time
>flashback to when Kurono visited the real Kishimoto after the Buddha mission
>>280939709Based mom, filling in the memory holes.
Imagine if Reika had swooped in before they met up again.
>>280939794You both made each other better people! Get back together!!
>>280939834NOOOOOOO!
>>280939822I think we should do it for him. If it wasn't for him we wouldn't be having this fun
who is in the wrong here?
>>280939903It's not a wonder that I memory-holed all of this. I don't want to remember this.
>>280939945It's not a lie to say that you dated a completely different person.
>>280939977I wonder if the bully-yankees are still around. Kurono would not have a good time with them in his current state.
God, Kurono is such a fucking moron for ever considering option 1.
kinda feel bad for her, she is still worst girl tho...
>>280940093boooo fuck kurono
>>280940093this is the most fucked up thing oku has drawn thus far
>>280940157if kurono knew how he would treat tae with his memory blanked he wouldn't have chosen the first option
why didn't the idiot just asked the specifics before choosing to have his memory erased? What did he think was gonna happen lol
>>280939676>>280939587When the final aliens speak of "no soul" "no gods" and shit like that, keep these in mind.
They are advanced, but the don't know everything.
>You fucking suck Kurono!
>>280939856maybe I'll do 4 & 7 then for whoever can't make one showing
Okay the dolls are pretty cute
>>280934887a bit excessive shooting the decapitated head here but I would probably do the same with how scary this guy was
>>280940330he really wanted the kill steal
>>280940330I wonder if he only got 100+ point because he stole the kill at the end.
>>280940344>I want to fill the holesI know it's sad, but I can't not think about it out of context...
>>280940443At least stalker-chan took her shoes off when entering
>>280940330if anything they should be doing that more often, given how many times the aliens get back up
breaking into his house when he's not home will not help the stalker allegations...
>>280940443>>280940477Oku drew her way cuter in this chapter.
>>280940477I want to drop down and doggy style this cute stalker
You know back then Reika was the fantasy option and Tae was the realistic option but the dating scene nowadays is so fucked that Tae too is now a fantasy
>>280940511That's a hamster you DUMB SLUT
>>280940564I could've had a Tae but fucked it up many times. I hate myself so much
>>280940646>picture of a motorcycle with "try again" in the cornerDid anyone else laugh at that?
>doing a movie watchalong before the actual fucking mission
Why is this storytime so full of retards?
>>280940721That's the start to an average romance manga
>>280940717Don't look at me, I'm on the side of doing it after the arc finishes.
>>280940764Anons just can't wait one more week
>>280936392How many points was it again?
>>280940789>You have to swallow it again...>It's the only way we'll get our memories back...
BEST GIRL IS BACK FOR THE LAST CHAPTER!
>>280938253he was quite literally shell shocked and locked into the game by the point where tae dies
>>280938316I'm not a first time reader, but you're certifiably retarded
>>280940837now you ruined it anon
Yeah sensei we know she's huge...
cherry and his tonkotsu are also pretty cute
>>280940892Does this actually happen in japan? Gigant also had an idol that everyone knows and she makes ads for literally everything.
Find the guy and fuck him up Kaze!
Jesus Christ this poor kid...
You're a good man Kaze, thank you.
>>280941083He should have gotten gantz'd
>>280941166this is the most introspection muscle rider has gotten so far
Kurono back on the path of character development!
I'm glad seeing ojichan happy!
KURONO YOU WON'T REGRET IT! CALL BEST GIRL PLEASE!!
>>280937132her, pick her!
ENTER!
Peanut haired nigga!
>>280941374I forget who even
And now to finish this properly, best girl.
>>280939182How is Kurono even not being ostracized like was he was previously? Mr. Lamp, oshiete!
>>280941374If I remember correctly this is an investigator/reporter right?
>>280941399the beginning of the end
>>280941374https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfPW88vQMEQ
>>280941449He's gonna become a really old sniper with a parrot?
>>280938798not him but the dumper shouldn't post spoilers
And we're done, just under bump limit!
Tomorrow someone else will be handling the dump and it has a lot of good moments so please don't screw it up, I still think we should wait for the movie after the next mission is finished but you guys do whatever you want. See ya Gantzers!
Alright, so 4PM EST will be movies time? I'm there!
>>280941260>>280941288If this was the end of Kurono I wouldn't even mind at all.
>>280941166Well justified MANLY tears, if anyone has doubts
>>280940093>>280940133Taebros... not like this...
>>280936796>>280936865Destroying their bodies and recreating them in a new location is very in character for Gantz and I would believe that if not for the fact that, yeah, their room bodies can react to things their outside eyes can see.
>>280935341Ojisan is so nice that he's even happy to see Inaba survived.
>>280934852I'd still run the fuck away after all previous experiences, get some distance.
>>280935692I'd choose more powerful weapons so that I can rack up points more easily and bring back my dead friends.
No shot in hell am I erasing my memory and going free, especially now that civilians are constantly being targeted. I wouldn't be safe, just defenseless.
>>280941919But then its a wormhole...But they also get 'fixed' or rewound sometimes minutes prior to their last known 'good' state. We shouldn't dwell, it makes more holes.
>>280937110When Gantzers die, it's a skill issue.
When non-Gantzers die, there's literally nothing they could do because they don't even know there's a danger.
>>280936195>MasaruKato already exists. Do you want to replace it?>OK.

>>280941581the original op of the story time set up the date and time for the watchalong before we were ever even reaching the osaka chapters AND with no means to actually sharing a stream so let's settle this now
I can either:
a) go through with the original planned time tomorrow
b) wait until the end of the osaka arc volume 25 this friday instead

>>280936681>his brother has been alone for monthsKid might be dead.
>>280942171seriously, how did this guy survive
>>280937428Even he's surprised that someone chose to revive him.
>>280937132Kurono probably also has 100+ points.
He could revive Kishimoto and Lara.
>>280941231>>280941260>>280941288What an amazing callback to Ch. 1 Kurono.
