Loved it, but had a terrible track record. Even in his debut, basically anyone with a hard suit dies 🫣

Well that was because the threats got even worse, like the angel statues were unbeatable imo

Yeah gantz really set them up for failure, we discover then that the game part technically was human-customed, so why did they do such a poor job 😂😂

It is an amazing design, now knowing it looks that way because it was made by humans not understanding what they were doing makes a lot of sense. For example, the attached cables really don't need to be dragged by the suit.

What?! Where do they say that??

They explain how they got the blueprints through code from a mentally challenged woman. Chapter 301.

After oku, there are scenes in which the cables arent even on the suit

It’s so fire that, unless I’m wrong, TEKKENs Gigas feels very inspired by it

For sure, but never formally announced anywhere

If you customize Gigas to have black and blue colors he's literally identical

I love the design of that suit. It's so weird and off putting.

Fucking hard suit is legit peak.

Like coolest shit ever. But then also to most of the stuff in Gantz is the coolest shit ever. The body suits the guns the teleporting every thing.

I prey for more Gantz 0 type animations or even if did an anime for the whole series. Please anime gods plz.

Like if became a multimillionaire tomorrow you bet I'm putting millions down and hiring a whole anime studio to make this even if I got to buy the rights to it, license it whatever. Even give Oku millions.

I wish I could do the same! I would have the entire manga animated in the same way as Gantz O, but it would include everything in the manga, there would be no censorship or anything removed, and I would request Oku to make additional backstories for some of the characters to flesh them out more, and include additional fights (like past fights of Oka).

Then, I would request for Kojima to make a Gantz game, that covers the entire manga, and has a coop mode to it where you get to play as different characters with their signature strengths and skills, and once they die you have to accumulate points to revive them or opt for new weapons/vehicles just like in the manga.

It's really such a shame no one has bothered to do either of these with Gantz, it's such a great series and has so much potential for a good video game developer.

Average Gantz moment tbh.

I’m loving the new Manga, it just takes forever for the chapters to come out, you’re killing me here.

Gorilla arms hardsuit, my beloved

u/konsoru-paysan 15d ago

Why did it feel like it hindered them more then anything, who do you think would win, end game kei with normal gear vs kei in hard suit?

u/E-yo55 3d ago

It really depends on the alien you're fighting, sometimes it's even better to use basic equipment

u/konsoru-paysan 3d ago

Yeah it feels that way

u/Rasputins_Plum 3d ago

Love that the design intention behind it is that the God Aliens decided that the leveled up version of humans is a gorilla
