Woah, Gantz is popular enough for this? I'd love for it to get a remake as well but that's unlikely.

Guess I'll see this in 2017 then.

Not sure how well 3DCG will work for Gantz. The movie budget mechs should be nice. Osaka arc is pretty fucked. Hope they don't cut the Kuwabara action.
Sieg Zeon!

im not worried about the quality of the visuals considering this will have a movie budget and seeing Digital Frontier also have done the Tekken Blood Vengeance movie im sure this will be action packed as well

This looks nice. I am sure people will complain about "this not being 2D" anyway because its one of ongoing memes alongside hating on dubs.

Really excited about this now, the realistic/game type CG is much smoother and looks pretty awesome, so action scenes should look awesome.

No need for it unless they cut the fillers in the last six episodes and picked up where the anime finished the manga adaptation , starting with the attack on tae and the disappearance of kurono

This is a movie of the Osaka arc, this is like the 10th Gantz arc and starts in volume 21, chapter 239(but has an initial part that starts in 228)

6th arc actually since the anime covered around 150 chapters of the manga that translated to 4 arcs. the manga also as the aftermath of the temple arc and as i stated in my previous reply the assasination of tae kojima and the disappearance of kurono kei. which are 2 shorts arcs where they introduce vampires

you are right man, thought the oni, dinossaur and ring alien were after the osaka (nurarihyon) arc. sorry

My friend in Japan worked on the graphics in this movie. She had a big post about it in Facebook. I knew she was in graphic design and she makes wicked paintings but to work on a movie! Shout out to Ayami! Well done Ayami! :) I remember when her mum made some awesome takoyaki when I visited. Was tasty.
