- - Gantz (http://forums.thetechnodrome.com/showthread.php?t=14092)

I've been watching this series Anime called Gantz at my friend's house that's in the middle of coming out on DVD, I think the 3rd disc of volume 2 comes out the 15th or something. So I haven't seen it all obviously, but from what I have seen, I'd like to reccomend it to anyone who'd be interested. I can't really say much about it without giving it away, other than it's F***ED UP as all hell and it contains lots of

GRAPHIC VIOLENCE
& NUDITY!!!

-=Scattered applause=-

Mainly, it involves people who are continuously summoned to this room where a strange entity named Gantz forces them to participate in a war game with various strange aliens. You can probably get a better idea at the ADV site here. There's another site that I believe to be the official japanese page, but it's got some naked cartoon boobies in it, so I figure I'd get in trouble if I posted the link here. So you'll just hafta find that one on your own. [cough]google[/cough]

But AAAANYways, If anyone IS familiar with it, I'd like to hear what you think.

I read the manga regularly and although it's too violent sometimes and almost pornographic at some points it's a really interesting story.

My friend has a couple volumes on DVD. We watched it together late one night and I was stricken by it. It's got a good premise.

I was surprised to see Wal Mart selling some of their DVDs. I found it odd, considering all the crap they say about certain music albums and the fact that you can't buy booze there unless you're 27. But I digress.

Yeah, it's a good show. I like the plot.
