Glory of Gantz

vlcsnap-2010-12-09-02h31m17

What can you say about a series that has a horny and sarcastic hero, a storyline that tumbles death and existentialism, and as a cherry on the cake - guns, boobs and aliens?

Written by Hiroya Oku, Gantz is a full-blown affair. It wastes no time in lulling you in. It violates and breaks in your mind and by the time you can process what is going on, it has already left you with tons of questions buzzing around in that baffled head of yours.

However, the manga and anime is not for the squeamish – There’s oodles of blood and liquids oozing out. I would suggest anyone to begin with the manga, which is much better than the two anime series. There is also the live-action movie that is being released soon – but I have an inkling that it’s going to hurry through and leave the juice out.
