yo. is there anywhere I can get caught up from the old series? I think I was on ch 214. I forgot how godly Gantz was until I peeped the episodes again. now I gotta have it.
-Starhammer-
Wins a win no matter what. Heroin dude > you.
StopTazmo is the place to be for all your backtracking Gantz needs.
Enjoy.
Oh, and Fem can shut it up as per usual in here. I actually like Gackt -er… Heroin King. He isn’t all “badassery is what we aim for” like the Osaka Trio (Steven, Wesley, Rape Man) or completely useless for no reasonable explanation at all (Team Sadists and Anzu). He’s just a lonely druggy driving a giant motorcycle making the world a safer place for the rest of us meat bags. Searching for a 100 point alien when the actuality of its existance became news to us (not to mention actual proof of his battle prowess on the field WITHOUT the X-Cycle) however… is a bit much to swallow, eh? Without the EPW I have my doubts he’ll walk away unscathed if foolish enough to incite a battle. God knows Screech lite over there isn’t going to be worth squat in the exchange anyway.
Heroin guy isn’t dumb enough to incite a lost fight, most likely due to anxiety drugs can make you feel. Don’t get pissed at him for looking for a monster that’s actually worth a damn. If I were him I would just cruise around on that back with the wind blowing through my hair while the other guys fought it out. Maybe pop in some Bruce Springsteen while I’m at it.
Screech-lite’s only purpose is for use as a human shield and menial task. I still hate him tho’.
Who’s the chick in your AV crying, btw?
The only thing I’m pissed at him for is the abnormally high potential of getting himself killed at the moment. When last has any character toting a shred of relevancy aside from the main roster in a series walked away healthy from an enemy HQ? Even the bosses aren’t worth 100 points so isn’t he compounding his problems by searching for anything that strong in the first place? Couple in a fierce determination factor, lack of back up from the trio, and the fact we know dick about him… I’d say death or cliffhanger is certain in the next five chapters. He’s highly expendable at this point.
oh great. I’ve been IP banned from there. seems he didn’t like me asking why we should “Stop Tazmo”. :rolleyes: Thanks all the same.
-Starhammer-
Please tell me you’re kidding me. What a bitch move. Have you tried Stabby’s site? Worst comes to worst I’ll just download what I can and upload from a different site myself. Sorry man. Oh, and the chick is no one special. I just found the image during a Google hunt and stole it a while back. Google hunts are key when you’re lazy and looking for a new avatar.
@ Starhammer: i’m all caught up now and have all volumes on my computer. if you need a volume, just say and i’ll post it on the upload site.
Rape Man is my favorite Osaka Vet.
also i wouldn’t underestimate a Greyhound wearing a fez. this new “scanner” weapon feels like a Scouter…
Could Screech-lite be the new Kei Kurono???
ban this man.
yeah, straight bitch move on his part, but it happened. I’m not mad because it turns out he’s just hating on the better site. God knows he’d roll over and explode if he knew the greatness of SRK. I’m gonna try it again though. I’ll let you know if it goes through.
Thanks man. :tup: I’ll check to see what all I’m missing and let you know what I need.
EDIT: Aw Shiet!! It looks like its been a while since my last login. the system apparently doesn’t remember that I’m “banned” anymore. Downloading the hell out of some Gantz as we speak. :tup:
-Starhammer-
Isn’t there already a statement on the site of why he wants to stop Tazmo. Maybe too many people asking. Dunno, haven’t been to that site in ages.
not sure. I know there wasn’t one when I was first there though. Either way, I’m not worried about it. all I want is the manga, not the drama.
-Starhammer-
Oh my shit.

It’s mine!
I’m going to take it out!

The 100 pointer’s power has accidentally made it’s appearance?!*
This is the first time I’ve actually enjoyed Team Retard’s useless banter. It seems clear the tengu is the 100 pointer they’re talking about, but is it the SAME 100 pointer or a different one? Kato better play his position as a full back and watch his own ass. Oku is still dead set on hyping Oka as some sort of a Gantz God which is strange considering the exceptionally LARGE margin for error he’s working with right now.
It’s either Clark Kent or Ben 10 we’re dealing with here.
My money is on Heat Blast boy.
Kurono had better not show his broken mug around here next round or I’m sending Oku death threats.
Oh, and I can guarantee Sakata will die a horrible death on this mission.
Dreams really do come true after all.[/details]
You write the best commentary, Saga.
And why don’t you want Kurono back? The series seems pointless without him.
I absolutely adore Kei Kurono.
The teenaged wonder brat is honestly one of my favorite fictional characters of all time dispite his near incomprehensible obsession with the useless meatbag known only to us as Tae Kojima.
He’s a champion in every sense of the word.
An average joe like the rest of us, thus, the perfect main character is born.
Nonetheless… there are only three reasons I can figure as to why Oku would unveil a 100 point alien this early in the second phase or “body” of the manga (assuming Osaka’s point values are being applied to our team’s ball).
[list][]Buddha Massacre Vol. 2 (Obvious)
[]The Premature Revival of Kei Kurono (Bad Taste/Writers Block)
[*]New Weaponry, [Insert 1337 Plot Twist Here], Year of the Mighty Oka Brat/Mech.[/list]
…Or our asinine author is DEFINITELY going to wrap this manga up sometime next year.
Place your bets.
Because if half of our team disappears before this mission is over I can guarantee Oku is going to Death Note our asses to kingdom come. Watch him. I bet you we’re gonna get jewed or Oka will be running shit from here on in while Oku scrambles to find an actual use for Nishi in the process i.e. filling in plotholes and presenting REAL evidence to fuel the lame armageddon/global gantz competition twist he’s been shoving down our throats lately.
My point: If Kurono shows up before the next mission this manga is definitely over.
Saga, you can’t guess this manga. You can be angry about things that have already happened, but trying to predict ends in disaster.
And who the hell is Oka?
Oka is the broken son of a bitch who apparently racked up 700 points and killed one of those 100 point aliens single handedly from the Osaka Team. The mech like figure in stealth mode featured in the picture I posted earlier is Mr. Hachirou.
I really have trouble believing you of all people would NOT have a problem with Kurono being revived in the same night he died because of dumb luck and bad writing. What other reason would there be if Oku wasn’t planning on ditching his creation? I mean what haven’t we seen from the kid? He is the ONLY fully developed character this manga has to offer. Why bother?
There simply isn’t enough depth in this manga to justify another year of random bullshit.
Kurono is top tier, but if our author doesn’t start fleshing out the rest our cast or clueing us into the meat of the actual plot, then I have no choice but to assume he never will… and is planning to jump ship in the near future.
He’s been stringing us along for what…? 17 - 18 volumes now? When are going to get some damn answers with a lifespan lasting longer than two or three volumes?
