dude shut up i did look didnt find much so i thought ill come ere and ask the nice ppl of GW forums! so shut it
o and thx l8r thats site is what i wanted thx alot mate.
sorry, it just seems that there are so many requests come around that it seems repetitive to give people almost the same website or information over, and over, and over again when a lot of the websites have been mentioned in other threads... but then, i guess that's just because there's a lot of people where a small fraction just request for stuff
anywho. have fun with the gantz manga.
thanks for site l8r
im glad you started this thread toruxxx, because ppl like me needs the site too, i appreciate.
Any body still reading/watching Gantz? I recently read the manga and finished the anime and there're a few questions, so.......
I watched the censored first season of the anime, and have been faithfully reading the chapters of the manga as they come out from shocwave, who as far as I know is still scanning it.
I've finished watching the anime 2nd season, and found it very different from the manga in terms of story....
Im a big fan of the manga and dont need to watch the anime cause it cannot it compete with the manga.
Which chapter are you on in the manga?
191. That's the latest I think.Quote:

Me too then shouldnt we make this the thread to talk about the latest GANTZ chap since the forum is missing.
i'm on chapter 191 as well, what did you guys think of it, i'm trying to figure out what the deal with those onii-aliens is
http://www.stoptazmo.com/gantz/
Has all the latest ones.
So good! Can't wait to see how strong that oni-alien is. Best manga ever.
Hehe on of the best anyway.
Oni-alien doesnt oni mean demon? I was thinking that these oni aliean can be vamps cause they look like human like the alien they have souranded(sp?). Also the vamps have read about the GANTZ people and this guy knows about them.
192 is out... awesome chapter.
http://gantz.cjb.net/down.pl?ID=192
Awsome and it look very bad for Rieka and her crew, the only thing that can save them now are Kie.
Hey everyone, I just posted a torrent of every Gantz issue to date on Demonoid, I made sure to make it a public torrent so that anyone can get it, even non-members. Please come fill any holes in your collection!
http://www.demonoid.com/torrents/details/73031/
Note: every chapter is presented individually, so that if you use a bittorrent client such as Azureus, you can choose which ones you want or don't want to download, in case you already have some, but need other chapters.
Just so people know, chapters 195-197 have been released. All I can say is: damn, damn, damn!
I've been getting the last few chapters off stoptazmo, which apparently found another group that picked it up at some point. So 199 is out from them, but I'll be getting the shocwave ones as they release them.
But yeah, holy shit.
Ahahaha the guy was humping the alien [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img], and damn those tits were saggy. But damn Reika was smart enough to find out that the fake Kei was an alien but man I wish they would hurry up to the chapter where Kei meets his brother!!
Give it time. This series is very slow most of the time but when it picks up it picks up hard and fast. I remember when every one but Kei died that happened outa nowhere. so don't worry it'll happen
I just read 190-199 and I hope they aren't setting up Reika's death. She's just as good as Kei and Izumi and her crush on Kei isn't annoying like Kei's(female) was on what's his name.
She is as good as Kurano??? just cause she has killed a couple of week aliens while Kurano has killed 100's of though aliens much more stronger these current weak aliens.
I just love how wonderfully random this manga is. I got bored one day and read all of the chapters and yet there still is no explanation as to what the hell the gantz is. I also love how the author just loves to bring in any kinda random crap he can think off. Please tell me I wasn't the only one who said WTF out loud when for no apparent reason what so ever vampires come into the story and we learn that Kurano's little brother is a vampire too. Yesh, the writer should solve the questions that he's brought up first before adding new ones. I'd like to think that Gantz is trying to provide some sort of social commentary on japanese society but maybe I should have gave up on that when Kurano fought against fire spitting alien dinosaurs on futuristic motorcycle. If nothing else the randomness of Gantz never ceases to amuse me.
If you dont know what GANTZ is about then you havent been reading carefully......
Even though the mangaka hasnt given us much info about the world in GANTZ we know things about the room,the aliens,the vamps etc..
What are you talking about? The gantz world is very clear. It's contemporary modern japan. This is one of the things that really confuses me, on one level Gantz seems like it's some sort of social commentary of contemporary japanese society. With the whole concept of taking the consumer culture to another level with the strange, bizzare, violent, and often disturbing missions where the participants are given points based on how much depravity they commit. Yet the story seems to take a completly different turn once Kurono meets up with the fourth gantz group and ensures their survival. It starts to take on more traditional anime/manga conventions with the rules being established and the now the story more or less focuses on Kuronoa leading his little group to survive the missions.
The original premise of the series has still yet to be answered or explained. Why is there a big black ball? What is it's purpose, why does it send these people on bizzare missions. Who made the ball, whose responsible, and most important of all what is the origin of the high tech weapons that are given out. As opposed to giving us answers the writer/artist has decided to throw in vampires for no apparent reason what so ever. They have nothing to do with the aliens that the gantz people fight. They just look cool and seem to have some sort of vendetta against the gantz people for no apparent reason. We have been told that the vampire's see the gantz people as vampire hunters but we've never seen them actually hunt or fight vampires except when they've been attacked by them. All I'm saying is that the writer/artist seems to be digging himself into a deeper and deeper hole and I can't even begin to fathom the reason that's supposed to tie everything together and make it into one cohesive package. I started reading gantz beacause the concept intrigued me and I was excited to see what kind of answers there were the justified the premise. So far after 199 chapters I still haven't had any of my core questions answered.
When i say the world i mean things why they are aliens,vamps,the room etc.
It cant be normal modern japan when there are aliens,vamps etc.
There may be fantastic elements in gantz like aliens and vampires but generally the gantz world is a very real and unapologetic portrayal of the seedier aspects of japanese society. Gantz constantly features gang violence, sexual abuse, child abuse, hell it has just about every kind of abuse you can think of. I really don't think that gantz is supposed to be some sort of alternative dimension or fantasy setting. It's supposed to be contemporary.
I know that it suppsose to normal japan oustide the mission alians and stuff.
But just wondering when he will tell us why they are doing the missions,it is urgent to kill the alins,what does the vamps want from the GANTZ team.
we know why the vampires are after Gantz team, they seem to believe that the man in black are vampire hunters.
sure, we don't now why the think that way (considering that the aliens are most likely not vampires), but it just means that there's more to look forward to.
No the vampires are just another unresolved plot thread. Instead of actually providing us with answers as to what the hell the gantz is the author has just created another pointless story arc which is leading the series in a completly different direction and it will most likely not bring any kind of answers as to what the hell the gantz is and what it's purpose is.
The only thing we've been promised is some sort of cool showdown between Kurono and his little brother. Honestly I could care less about that and I would rather see some sort of explantion as to what the hell the gantz is.
Just read 202-204 by Rockstar. What's with the whole aliens transforming, at this rate we'll never se the vampires. Ah well go Muscle Rider.
Rockstar? Who is that where did you find thier scans??
EDIT: here is the Rockstar version of 202-204
http://www.kippei.x-wh.net/manga/
Man Muscle Rider is kicking ass, and when he killed that rock dude, jeeze he went all out crazy!
Its interesting seeing that he doesnt need a gun to kill someone. I dont know why the others use weapons when they have super streangth with the suit.
Well he has mad fighting experience and knows Karate. Everyone else couldn't mangae it, Maybe Kei but even then it would be a stretch for him.
Well its safer to attack from a distance before resorting to close combat.
I haven't touched Gantz in a while so I just read 20-some chapters. A little dissapointed because it feels like one of those Godzilla flicks where they've decided to throw in every monster.
Also Kei gots that big large sword now, is it possible that he wished it during the fight because I thought you had to be in the "Room".
I didnt they would use Karate but like kurano did in the first mission when he used the suits power to punch the alien.
Also its not for everyone but for people who know how to use thier fist like muscle guy,Kurano,Izumi.
Thats what I thought but I like to argue the counter some times.
The counter? eh? You mean that it can backfire sometimes?
Have people read up to 213 yet? WAAH KEI IS TEH AWESOME!!11 So good.
I think for most of the players they don't like what they're being forced to do (be in a life or death situation) and so they use the guns to end it quickly. Players like Muscle Rider/Kei/Izumi love the battle and live for the thrill of the fight so they use hand-to-hand more. Even though the others have super strength also, they'd rather just use the guns and kill in one hit (hopefully).
I dont think Kie loves the battle like Izumi and Muscle but he knows he cant die before getting 100 p.
He is used to the battles but i woulndt say he loves it.
The others arent brave or confident enough to fight hand to hand.
He'd never admit it but I think he loves it ... the adrenaline, the atmosphere, etc.
Im sure he loved it when he had nothing in his real life and i mean he said he liked being like a super hero in GANTZ missions.
But after Tae he has become changed,he isnt like he was before. He is much more serious now.
Have they finally finished the hunt? I stopped reading when every alien started changing into a super form and Izumi lost to the one he was fighting. I wanna just read the rest of the hunt at once to see how many points everyone is gonna get.
I dont think they will be getting many points since this alian vamp kicked everyone's ass.....
Just read up to chapter 217. Fuck damn. So many people being revived. Awesome! I wonder what Izumi's new weapon will be.
218 manga raw is out. Via IRC.
The translated scan of chap 218 is out here http://www.firedowndrop.com/lain-deshi/manga.html
Just read the 219 raw. HE's baaaaack!!!!!!!!
Sheesh no spoilers before the trans [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
Is this fricking manga going to go anywhere? I mean common it's been 200 plus chapters and the intial questions have still yet to be answered. What is the gantz and what is it's purpose? Intead we just get stupid vampire while extremely cool looking don't really help explain things any better.
Thats the best part. I know Kurono won't be able to get out of Gantz. The rules have changed, it's up in the air now. Also we still have yet to see what those vampire guys are really about.
I wonder what will happen to the team when he leaves them its not Izumi will care about their lives and help them to stay alive.
i wonder if they'll still follow kei's life....and whats up with him not bringing back his girlfriend or kei...kinda cold blooded...
I bet they will still show him. He;s no where near done with Gantz. There's still the matter of his brother and also the Vampire guys as well. They know what he looks like and will most likely follow him and try to kill him when they find him.
Did you forget that Reika asked what her name was and brought Tae back for Kureno? Tae's the only girl that really matters to Kureno. (Kinda sucks to be Reika then, huh?)Quote:

That's why they said he should let himself go free, and enjoy life with Tae. They feel he's done SO much for him that he deserves a rest.
As for the other Kei, who cares? She was annoying and useless anyway. I'd rather see him bring back the Sadako girl (the shy stalker one that looked like the girl from The Ring). Someone else will bring back the other chick he had sex with before he met Tae, probably that pacifist idiot friend of his that finally got brought back to life. (I blocked out his name because I found his 'no killing attitude' the exact reason he died.)
well, i was referring to the girl that popped his cherry; i remember him bringing back tae. i guess he forgot about her
He did rememer her, but she just didn't seem that important to the story after he got close to Tae.
You guys seem like you've read past 218, which is the latest chapter at Shocwave's channel. Where are you getting them?
Here http://www.mangaupdates.com/groups.html?id=501
I get almost all my mangas from baka
i either go to IRC or www.degree-anime.com
#lurk is the best in irc.
I wonder how Kurono will act now like the loser he was before that didnt care about anything or will he feel that he has changed even if he doesnt remember it.
Lol.. Kinda sad though.
Kurono is a loser again.
But somehow I think he'll be back in the room again.. soon.
Its a given he will be back in the room soon but its good see his everyday life now and then.
Chapter 221 is out, find out for yourselves.
All I have to say is I forgot how much of a dick Kurono came off before Gantz claimed him.
You'll just have to read the chapter yourself and make you own opinions.
Yeah he's back to his old ways but as we saw with Izumi you never compleatly forget Gantz. I think his interaction with his everyday will bring his memories back but I think he'll be dragged in through Tae or his brother one or the other, but his brother sounds like the better option.
I was talking about about 221, i read it in the morning.
I thought everyone quit reading Gant, but its still cool you guys are still reading it. But man I cant believe he revived Nishin or whatever. You know he is going to remember again, and thats bull all that work for Tae and they freaking dont know each other, he should just stayed with Reika.
Edit: I also made a Gantz Manga discussion, no on ever replied to that lol. It was a while back
http://forums.gotwoot.net/mess...y=y&keyword1=Gantz
I think his love for Tae is bigger enough to reive her even if she doesnt know him.
They are in the same class,he will run in to her. Also when he remembers alittle like Izumi did before,he will go after Tae.
Aww, 222 was so sweet...
Chapter 223 is out now!
Heh, I like the way this is going. He'll remember soon, or be reminded, or die again, or something. I LOVE how this series is so damned hard to predict.
I also like how things are going right now, seeing him cry without knowing why was something.
Yeah, sweet chapter, man i just can't wait till the next chapter comes. He is going to remember, we all know that, the way he just cried over that picture.
Yeah we know that but seeing Kurono real life always interest me more than the room,the mission etc.
Wonder if he will go after Tae now or if she will remember him.
Really? To be honest, I always thought he lived a boring life. Maybe a bit of his background, he was a trouble maker and a loser whereas his younger brother was always the achieving one, and he is the black sheep of the family.
But to whats going to happen next, that would be interesting. Especially when the next mission commences, without his leadership I wonder how many are going to die and stuff.
Yeah his life wasnt exciting at first but how he changed from a jerk to a nice guy in was interesting to see. How saving lifes in GANTZ made him better in his real life.
224 is out, I'm downloading now. The torrent is going slowwwww.
*Edit: Hehe. Teenage drama chapter. I'm interested to see how it turns out.
I really think this is the worse show ever almost... I hated every thing about it...sucky ending...wait did it even have an end-_-;???? Anyway I just wasted my time watching the stupid show....
Uhh...this is about the Gantz manga. It's absurdly better than the lame excuse of an anime they made it into.
Anime is awful.
Manga.. it's a totally different story. It's extremely good.
It's like how they bastardized hellsing.
What a messed up chapter it was. Whats wrong with Kurono he should remember her.
Izumi remembered eventually. Kurono will too.
Chapter 225 (raw) is out. I will kiss the first person to translate this. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
wow, 221 is exactly what made me love gantz in the first place...
you just know that it won't happen in any other manga...
Heh man are you reading Shockwave scans? Why o why? The other scan group is as just good if not better.
226 is out. SPOILERS!!
A good chapter, nice to see the players in their daily lives. And it's good how Muscle Rider (can't remember his name) is going to look after Takeshi.
And the ending was interesting who the hell is the guy.
where can i find it at?
Ok, some of the chapters don't have download links at Baka-updates. Does anyone know of an alternative site we can use? I'm yet to find one. IRC isn't responding to my commands for some reason.
Jinchuuriki and Illuminati-TOWNL seem to be the main groups scanning gantz. Unfortunately, it seems that their download sections are both "Latest Downloads," and it seems that they don't keep the older torrents live. There's no link on baka-updates for 227, which I'm guessing is what you're looking for. The HTTP link over at Illuminati-TOWNL is broken and the torrent from Jinchuuriki has no more seeders.. (one leecher at 4.3%) =\
...
Did some more digging, You can download Jinchuuriki's 227 at StopTazmo or Illuminati-TOWNL's 227 at narutocommunity's manga page. Watch out for narutocommunity though, I picked up the site off a google search and it's filled with ads and pop-ups.
Recent chapters can be found at Tokyotosho, or at either of the scanning teams' sites.
Jinchuuriki
Illuminati-TOWNL
here on torrent spy but it gotvery little seeders and leachers
http://www.torrentspy.com/download.asp?id=543854
i got gantz from irc (#lurk(www.gotlurk.net))
Thanks for the links, guys. I finally managed to get the IRC bots working but I'll save those links for future releases. :D
So anyone else read up to 233? Amazing stuff, love this series so much.
I'm at 233 also. I agree, Gantz is a great series - it was my favorite for a few weeks when I was reading it from 1-208. These mangas that have longer release times though - Gantz, Berserk, and to be extreme, Hunter x Hunter, really fall off the scope for current interests. It's a bit difficult to get excited over chapters that release every two to three weeks, although when read in succession the resulting story is usually awesome.
Recently the focus has stayed on Kei even though he's exited the system. I would be interested to see the remaining gantz team in their missions if I could read it in one sitting, but viewing the story from a release-to-release basis would probably make that really tough on Kei fans. Imagining reading the post-Buddha mission chapters week by week makes me cringe. It looks like we're going to see Kei thrown back into the gantz world ASAP, events aren't wasting any time converging on him.
234 and its still good to know there are people reading this good manga. Also Izumi died... which was gay, so I hope they bring him alive. Akira (Kuronos bro) is also helping him out, but I didn't think they weren't in good terms but he still protects his brother.
