The too are very similar killing monsters because you have to, blood, gore, death, ect. The only main difference is in Zetman the main character is a "Player" or monster that is designed to kill the other monsters. In Gantz it is regular humans that have died and are now sent to kill random alien/monsters. The art work on both are amazing and the thought that goes into both are amazing.

Sep 5, 200895 of ? chapters read 15 of 19 people found this review helpful Zetman is a Seinen, Sci-fi, Action, Drama manga that traces the lives of two rival heroes. Still it is a major problem when you don’t realize Zetman is about that until much later on.
Describing the story for Zetman is quite the arduous task, because not only does it not make much sense but nothing is clearly explained until much later. The beginning basically sets the scene for this manga, which has something to do with monsters known as ‘players’ and it introdu...ces a kid involved in all this. Though this isn’t what the story is entirely about and it takes a long time before the real story surfaces. Till then all the reader can do is follow the lives of two boys (Jin Kanzaki & Kouga Amagi) who share a sense of justice but live completely different lives. It’s quite odd that this manga suddenly splits into two separate stories but then again it’s also captivating the way it shows the different hardships our characters face, which leads them into sharing a similar goal (eliminating the players).
Sure there are two main characters that share the same strong sense of justice but they are both incredibly different. Jin Kanzaki is a “down to earth” kind of guy, who is both blessed and burdened of being a superhuman known as “Zet”; whereas Kouga Amagi is a sheltered rich boy, who’s always dreamed of being a hero of justice. There are other characters that bring a good change of pace to this really grim story; be it family, friends or love interests but quite a few characters have unappealing personalities.
When it comes to the artwork, this manga does an amazing job in portraying the gritty reality of this unreal world. Even though everything from the environments to the characters looks rather sketchy, there’s a great deal of detail put into all of it, including the towering skyscrapers and the technical devices. To sum it up, the art it almost perfect, I just had some minor qualms with the gruesome action scenes as it can be difficult to tell what kind of blow was landed.
Overall Zetman is a great piece for those heroic/action plotline lovers, with the question that seems to surface a lot “what is your idea of justice?” Sadly it doesn’t even give the reader a clear idea of what the story is entirely about early on but as you read on, you can tell the mangaka really makes effort to construct a logical plot. Sure the cover picture and the undeniable theme of justice may get you thinking of your classic Marvel superheroes comic but this manga is definitely not for kids.
Note: May edit if necessary. ^_^ read more

Jul 27, 200890 of ? chapters read 3 of 6 people found this review helpful This is one of the best manga i've have read in a long time, really even if sometimes you might say "this manga goes too slow and doenst show much battles like on some other mangas", the story is excellent, the main characters are very realistic, they art is really good as expected from the artist who has made great mangas before and finally its really enjoyable since you always want to see what happens next.
I really recommend it for those people who like a lot of violence
