REJECTED! lol. Kurono is such a perv. No sense of subtlety.Though she appeared to be leading him on without realising it... silly lines like "So can we sleep in the same bed?"

Priceless line Kishimoto:"So what did you want to do?"
Kurono: "Erm.... Sex?"

I hope GANTZ calls at some point, this is starting to get lame.

Kurono is a perv, but like you said, she was leading him on. But, anyone with any sense would realize that he should just sleep on the floor and let her have the bed, and then the next day go out and buy another futon.

Also, the only reason I can come up with as to why Kishimoto didn't immeditely throw Kurono out of the bed when he asked about sex is because she is obviously depressed and looks down at herself (hence the suicide attempt)

Kurono's the Sexless Innkeeper described in How I Met Your Mother s05 :'D

Anyway, that's by far the episode that annoys me the most whenever I watched it...
Back then, when it aired on TV, it was pretty dangerous to watch it xD

Kuruno is the most repulsive lead ever. I have liked almost every other episode but this one was a complete waste of air time. Basically all that happened was she moved in and they had a very awkward first night. Yeah, i was excited at first about them returning to the real world and the consequences but now i want them to go back to Gantz.

Don't see why it's automatically Kuro who needs to give up his futon, especially if she's his 'pet'. You don't give up your bed so the dog can sleep on it, you either let it sleep on the bed with you or kick it off. This girl just dropped in on him out of nowhere, and while it would be the typical anime thing to have the girl force him out of his bed, this isn't your typical anime and Kuro isn't your typical lead.

That was a pretty hot groping scene, tho she really shut him the hell down. Hard to keep on groping those tig ol biddies when she's having an existential breakdown. I hope he eventually gets to bang her, though, or else he'll have plenty of superpowers to work off.

Wonder what's up with those new characters they're showing, the biker punk and the dad who got pantsed. They'll probably be involved in the next round of Gantz's games.

WOW... Condoms? So that's how they look like!
Gotta be kidding me! Hilarious! That was so fucking funny.
I feel kind of bad for Kurono... He so thought he was going to lose his virginity *gosh, he's a virgin, poor guy* and... that woman! she's a woman, after all *laughs* she went on talking about how she doesn't have the cuts on her body anymore and all the shit only she'd get rid of poor Kurono who wanted to get some sex... yeah, she went on talking about how she doesn't know what she is anymore and all the shit - only she won't be forced to have sex with the guy : but really, why do you come to his apartment and don't explain anything to him like... I don't know: let me sleep on the floor please, I just don t have any other place to go to and ... fuck, she totally likes the other guy -what was his name again? Keto...something. Anyway, I dislike the girl. She's annoying.

The episode was funny.
Can't wait to see some blood.

Seemed like nothing happened this episode.. I also really don't like watching those kinds of scenes.. and whenb I think about it nothing much happened this whole series so far, it's going very slow. They went to the room once, and fought only one of the monsters (killed two). 1/5

Kurono is such a horny bastard, this episode was hilarious and reminded me why I like Gantz so much. The characters is what make the an awesome series. Kurono development from here only gets better. He cant stay a horny bastard all the time.

"... and you don't have sex with your pets."

This show has some of the most awkward dialogue I've seen. I think they manage to sneak three or four WTF lines in every episode. This episode was a little aimless, but there were some decent laughs. I wonder who this biker fellow is? I'm hoping Gantz calls in the next episode... I want to see everyone suited up and ready for battle.

Wow. This show's dialogue is so weird.

And what's with the odd fascination of penis??

Also, sleeping in the same bed as the opposite gender isn't as weird and awkward as it seems.

So did Tetsu's biker friends like rape that man with his kid? Cause his pants and everything were all below his knees and the episode description says "it's implied that the gang physically abuse him." Just wondering. The plot has been weird so far but I've been enjoying the series for the sheer debauchery that it is.

This was the first "it's a bad scene" moment for me, so far. The way the girl asked to stay with key and how he misinterpreted it was nonsensical. How he took advantage of her was nonsensical. And he said, "only that guy can leave",but then he left the guy there to get beaten? Lolz.

This show has some interesting elements that I would like to see explored. However it feels like this is a mature anime made for kids if that makes any sense. Like yeah they stuck x rated attributes but it was produced with a 14 year old in mind. This episode being the core point to my feeling. Hopefully this gets a bit more serious and the main can stop being so sexually charged.

I agree with you. Most people here are criticizing Kurono for wanting to have sex with this gorgeous woman. What's wrong with wanting sex? And when she said no, he stopped. That's not revolting in the least. He had enough dignity to keep it in his pants in the end. Lol

Yeah, all of these politically correct people thinking that a man wanting sex is sick and wrong. It's ridiculous.

Kurono's a fucking creep. Yeah I know, a lot of guys are always horny but that's generalizing and he's just out there with his creepiness.

Kato's fucking aunt strangled his little brother! >:(

There's so much rape in this series, I think Kato's aunt raped his little brother. Why else would he be naked when she beat him? Disgusting fucking bitch. Ugh.

They were hungry too and she didn't let them eat. I hope she and her sons die. They're all fucking animals.

I hate Kurono even more for forcing himself on Kishimoto Kei and fondling her tits, those tits are only for Kato. I was right, he would try to take advantage of her but it's a good thing he stopped or else Kato would've murdered him for touching his wifey. In my mind, they Kato and Kishimoto Kei are married.

I FUCKING LOVED THIS EPISODE. "Do you want to keep a pet". EEEEE, that cringe moment.

I also don't think the MC was forcing himself on her, infact he's pretty nice for stopping half way after she gave him so many hints. Even his room with all those girl pictures was a clear sign and she still stayed.

He is a pervert but he was nice enough to not force himself on her.

I seriously loved this episode. It surprised me sooooo much. This episode was not a waste of time at all. It showed us how the characters lifes are outside of the gantz place.

Also that aunt is a bitch.
