Well, I haven't seen the anime, but I really love Gantz (though like wtf, its totally off my damn chart for the stuff I'm usually inclined to read... I'm usually more of a drama/yaoi/lolzfunny gal usually). I agree with pretty much with what tj han says~ I don't know why, but I pretty much read the first 20sum volumes in one sitting, unable to turn away! ...Although I was rather queasy at some moments D: It's not a series I would rush to read every chapter of as soon as it comes out, but to check up on every month or two. Gantz is pretty crazy, but I enjoy it... somehow. Lawl.

The females are little more than trophies with large milk glands. The author, Oku Hiroya himself, explicitly stated that he hates girls with small boobs. And he absolutely hates cat girls. But anyway, I personally think GANTZ is the best action manga I've ever read in my life and I've read A LOT. The anime doesn't look it justice at all. I'm kinda lazy to explain this in a comment, maybe I'll do a full post on it. The manga is now far beyond the anime. To sum it up, the beauty of Gantz is in the sheer disregard to the rules of standard manga storytelling. Entire cast of characters get slaughtered in nondramatic ways, the protagonist dies like a fly squashed and there's huge character development in certain areas. And don't get me started on plot twists. There are so many placed in unexpected spots which just make me want to slap on a new genre of manga for GANTZ, called "Anarchy Manga".
