Gantz (Anime) add (All reviews)
Oct 14, 2009
It looks like Gantz is hated by many people... wrongfully. Gantz is not just an mediocore ecchi anime with pointless gore scenes and awful characters. Gantz is full of emotions. The situation, the protagonists are, are unreal, it would never happen to us, so what would you do, when you die and you would directly teleported in an unknown room? What would you do, when a fucking ball teleports you to an area where you have to fight against fucking aliens?

And that's the point where Gantz success. The characters behave human, they cry, wonder, ask. This is the natural behavior when a human sees utopian beings.

I won't say Gantz is perfect, of course, sometimes I wonder how bad it actually is (after re-watching it several times) but Gantz is a unique anime. I was very annoyed when the character won't shoot, but again, that was human.

It' s full with drama elements and when someone says it's just a violent nonsense anime, he's sure a moron.

Story:
In my opinion the story was quite enjoyable. Too bad I'm not allowed to be more detailed...

Art:
Why I really like Gantz. The art fits the whole atmosphere. The characters do look very detailed and human. No bigeyes and super sayan hairs. I'm very astonished how detailed Gantz was in some parts. The background of the whole anime was mostly done by the PC.

Sound:
I love Gantz's soundtrack. Once again, I'm not allowed to spoil but I can say at very dramatic situations, there was music like in churches. The whole soundtrack is one of my favorites with the Death Note's.

Character:
As I said before the character where very authentic so they acted very human in difficult situations. Kurono is by far ma favorite character of Gantz. He's an average guy like every guy. In the second half of Gantz you see his character progress. He's a real monster...
--------------------


I would overall rate Gantz with 8 (including the second season). Gantz made many thins wrong and many things right.
