GANTZ Ep 02 Review

As i said in the review of the previous episode, there will be extreme violence and gore. And that is already the case starting episode 2.

The song came from the black ball in the room. Lines of words appeared. Now it is giving them people instruction. They are told to kill an alien. Then equipments such as a black suit and guns are made available. Most of the people in the room grabbed a gun but almost no one took the black suit because it makes them look like a cosplayer. But Kurono decided to it on. Soon they are all transferred to their destination, and Nishi explain their situation. According to Nishi, they have to kill aliens and for each one they kill they will recieve a large amount of money as reward. Hearing this, everyone ran around looking for the target. One old guy decided to do home instead, but it seems the black ball doesn’t approve of it.

So the rest of the people finally found the alien and start chasing it. Eventually they got it cornered and killed it, even though Kato was begging them not to.

But as soon as they killed the alien, a big version of it came out of no where and start killing them all.
Now to move onto the review.

GANTZ Ep 01 Review

Hi people! Me again, reviewing a gory anime series. If you like that, please do read on. If not, then you probably won’t like this one. But I guess that is no reason to not read the rest, it might interest you somehow. Anyways, lets get to it.

So GANTZ is by far one of the most bizarre anime I have seen so far. The main character is a useless perverted emo slacker whose a jackass, but according to flash backs, he was actually a bad ass when he was a kid. Other than that, the plot is creative, and the theme is very dark. On top of that, there is a bunch of action, gore, intense violence, and full frontal nudity. All that add together = Good stuff.

Now to talk about the plot of this episode a little. So we start off with the main character (Kurono Kei) sitting in his classroom being bored. Although he is bored, he still managed to pay close attention to the teacher if you know what I mean…

Sorry for the censorship, but since we try to keep the blogs PG13, I can’t allow pictures of boobs. Oh and look! I censored it with Makoto’s head! I used Psyduck for my Elfen Lied review. Anyways, back on the plot! So after class he goes buy some porno and heads to the subway station. Once he got there, some stuff happened. Not going to go into details, but I can just say it all works as character development for him. So in other words, it shows how much of a bastard he is. Then his childhood friend (Kato) ended up standing right beside him. But Kato did not recognize Kurono at that moment. Kurono remembers that Kato used to be a wimp when they were kids, but now he is almost a foot taller than himself. Then a hobo fell on the train tracks and Kato jumped off the platform to help. But no one else will help. Kato then saw and recognize Kurono and asked for his help. Kurono reluctantly helped, but then ends up being hit by a train which caused his head to fly off.

The next thing they knew was being sent to a room with a big black ball in the middle of it. Then a naked big breasted girl got transported into the room and a big black guy tries to rape her. Then Kato went and safe her, and all of a sudden a song came on from he big black ball and a few lines of words appeared.
“Your Lives are over you bastards”
“What you do with your new lives is up to me”
“Got it?”
Something like that. Thats it for the plot summary, gonna move onto review now. Read the rest to find out what I think of this episode.
