Gantz/1 by Hiroya Oku
4.0

Holy fucking shit I thought this Manga ended at like volume 12 or 13. This is triple the length of that. So I only read up to 12 when I was a teenager. Time to get back in to it! So Gantz starts off with death (and boobs.) Kei is the main character and his old buddy from back in the day decides to save a bum on a train track. Kei is like "man you dumb as fuck" but then decides to help his bud out. Then they try to outrun a train and BAM they dead. They end up in a room and are told to go out and kill these "targets'. This is how Gantz begins!

What I like: I love Kei. He's a piece of shit, only thinks of himself, and a dick but he's so fun. His lines are great and his "who gives fuck" way of life is fun. I also enjoy most character designs. Everyone has their own look that really sets them apart. I love the weapons in this, very unique. Pacing is near perfect always keeping it fun yet disturbing at parts. I also really enjoyed the interaction with the other characters. Oh and BOOBS! =D

What I didn't like: The dog licking a vagina I could have done without. Just saying. Always seemed weird...
