Can anyone tell me what happened in the end? Because I didnt understand ending at all. What happened then he got teleported to train station and was shouting " I'll never die. Bang! " or something like that. Because anime ended here, and I really want to know what happened to him. And did someone survive or got revived? How many points he got?

They should just have left the series with the manga so they could continue it when they had more money or time idk

Freakin awesome anime the ending watev ill read the manga

i didnt liked it r.r
i expected a lot more T_T

d'oh, just read the manga -_-

Not everyone reads manga like you, smartass.

Rail_man Thanks.
I completely was missing the point of the last episode. I knew there was an underlying meaning to it but couldn't figure it out. There's always an underlying meaning with good anime.

I enjoyed the entire series granted the death of the other characters hit me hard.
I truly hope there is a 3rd season with Kurono in it. That guy was interesting.

Hey is Kurono still in the manga? I've come across it but I haven't the time to read it, its too many chapters. Everyone says its cool so I hope you're all right

No one noticed the Cowboy Bebop reference? Tsk. I could be wrong but

(Major for Cowboy Bebop)

Still, I didn't expect that ending. They should have just left it open for a third series. After all, shows like these don't come along too often. I wish I could read the manga online, but it's such a bloody chore =(


Btw you guys, if any of you liked the showing of 'the dark side of humanity' aspect of Gantz, I recommend you watch 'Kaiji'. You will be no doubt impressed.

Oh and if you want a good ending, stop watching after episode 22.

I suppose the one thing I'll never understand is why they couldn't climb back up onto the Subway platform. I also found it amusing that he decided to carry the dead girl on his back down onto the train tracks with him (nice job, hero! lol).

I found the first 25 episodes to be very enjoyable but the finale really dragged it down. Especially with that psycho brat going all emotional for fifteen minutes and then an unexplained ending. Le sigh.

i'm just saying this frm watching the anime and not wantin to compare with its manga,

i think Gantz is the machine/being that reflects on us of what we have all become now as a society and people, just following orders frm other people above us and doing what they want us to do without lookin at our self conciousness. for eg, gantz here is the superior power that orders the characters to go and kill some being they've never known or had anything to do with, and they kil these aliens that were just livin peacefully, simply mindin their own business. in the last parts of the final episode, the boy makes refernce to the wars that governments(probably US) were making and sending troops to fight against 'enemies' at diff parts of the world who the soldiers had nothin to do with. so, in the end, Kei realises himself being used and decides not to follow what Gantz tells him to do and not kill anyone anymore.

my view may be too morally depicting but i think this anime deals with more military themes like loss of friends and teammates in battle, etc.

I think this was simply a show of how survival takes over all sense of morality in humans when faced with the challenge. It was fascinating to see how the characters reacted, albeit stereotyped ones. (The only ones that really pissed me off were the Grandmother and her bratty grandson from Season 1. GAHH =.=) Also the whole time, I couldn't help think of Gantz as a God over this little isolated world he created. If you think of this entire anime as an example of instinct over everything-that-makes-one-human and the sadistic experiments of Gantz, then it fits the bill perfectly.
I really enjoyed it but even if the end is a psychological thing, I can't say I like it. I want to continue - can anyone tell me which chapter in the manga the anime ends at? Thanks.

In terms of character ending and development the ending truly sucked, all the previous major characters was already dead. And then the 7 "new" characters he manages to form some sort of relations with gets killed off one by one and again leaving him all alone at the very end.
And everything finishes with a totally lame as piston gesture and the word "bang"...

Though since there is actually a deeper moral and philosophical meaning behind everything the ending it's not all that bad.

Which is one thing I think this anime displays very well, society is corrupt and in order to survive you must be prepared to step on others. The less you care about other people the greater are your chances of personal success.

it can't end like this?! from which chapter should I start reading the manga?! hurry answer someone

@njasis - I found out the anime ends around middle of volume 8. That last arc of the anime is out of order, so it comes much later in the manga, but otherwise it's exactly the same and I don't think you miss much by skipping the first few volumes.

It ended just when it started to get good! Kei Kurono is a total badass now!

I was disappointed at the ending, but loved the showed and I was annoyed to see all kei's 'gf's die...especially the purple haired girl - I forget her name, had reserved the book.

I want to read the manga but I don't think it's available online for free :(

I trying to figure out the disappointed ending and came here and read all the comments. Rail_Man's quote made sense. I knew this lame ending had a meaning. I wished it would continue more. I heard the live action movie is coming out in 2011. I'm going to start reading the manga online, but i hate readin

@Dynastygal, yes you can read it online, I posted links on your profile.

What??? Ending totally sucks.. first i was pissed of bcoz Kei x Kato both died.. :'( and that bastard Kurono alone survived.. but somehow i managed to calm my self.. :) but in the end.. wtf...



LOLZZZ.. thats the thing i also dont understand from the very begining.. they run 5 minutes and then train hit them but how they didnt climb on subway platform.

when they saved that homeless, train should come right after and they didnt get any chance to climb on subway or for running then it make sense but wtf they run 5 minutes but didnt climb.. it wasnt that high.. even if it was, people can help them in the time they spent in running...

Can someone tell me.. in manga only kurono is alive or all 3.. kishimoto and kato also?

If Kurono and Kato survived the subway then... no story lol.



Anyways spoilers.



I suggest you read the manga if you haven't started already. Lots of action, and there are more characters that you will probably like.
