Gantz

Eps. 1-26

So I finally got this off of my backlog over the past couple days.
I have to say, though I could have lived without the gratuitous gore, nudity and sex, this was actually a pretty good series.

My only real complaint about how it was done, was the constant flash backs all the damn time and the very unnecessary recap parts at the beginning of each episode.

But those are what made Gantz, well, Gantz. The “because I knew you’d say yes” bit was iconic.
It was definitely unique in its harem aspects, that’s for sure.

What’d you think of the ending that they had to create specially for the anime?

If only funi hadn’t snagged it as I’ve still only seen this show in Japanese (I recall liking the jdub) and funi is complicating my efforts to watch the dub legally.

On a some what philosophical level, I was fine with it.

spoiler

Kurono got “revenge” on most of the people in his recent past that either wouldn’t help him with the bum or made his life difficult in some fashion.

At the cost of losing those he cared for.

How I view the end is, since Gantz disappeared from the room, Kurono made the time limit at the end. He gets a “second chance” of sorts, only to “live” out his life alone and broken for the rest of it, however short that may be.
