I read all of whats out the other day and I like it. I was surprised by the range of emotions captured by the story and fell in love with the characters. What does everybody else think about it?

I'm wondering a bit about where the whole thing is going. Vampires? Dinosaurs? RINGWRAITHS? Even if it looks like he's running out of ideas, at least it is keeping the story interesting. The fights seem to be more about higlighting characters and emotions than battles (despite the DBZ feel at some points). The tension and desparation are always there, so it keeps the reader interested in what's going to happen next. The pacing may be off at points, the plot a bit convoluted at points, but it's all serving to tell the story of Kurono and his companions. If you expect everything you read, watch, or hear to be an inspriational masterpiece, you'll just be disapointed. I think Gantz is trying to use some cool ideas (fighting dinos and ringwraits? sweeet!) to show the development of people in desparate situations. And it does that fairly well.
Compare with Berserk. Berserk has better character development, plot, art, style, pacing, ideas, originality, and themes, but Berserk is a real masterpiece. Gantz is enjoyable to read, and has just enough depth to be more than an excuse for sex and violence. It has it's merrits, and like all art, those merrits don't appeal to everybody. No need to read it if you don't like it. Meanwhile, the rest of us will have something enjoyable to read once in a while, and maybe just a little something to think about as a result.

It annoys me when people think a work has to be knee-deep in philosophical musing to have any depth at all. Good stories have theme and mood, and may touch on deeper things.
about your pain, i dont feel it but i should. When I saw how the dojo mission ended i fucking punched the wall.

hahaha main character wimpy... maybe at the start, but he quickly becomes super fucking hardcore
that first battle is a stroll in a field of daisies compared to pretty much all of the others

yes, shape shifting demons turn into women and make u fuck them and when u inseminate them they crawl up into your ass and transform into an elephant bursting your body in the process.
205 raw was very cool. Especially that final shoulder block *orgasm*

What episode of the anime starts to go differently from the manga?

Dunno which exactly.. but after the Dojo event things turns out different. So i'd say around episode 20.. maybe.
Im a little dissapointed in the mangaka(spelling?) actually. The earlier chapters where you get to se Kei at school and his daily life outside of Gantz are chapters i go back and read again.
And it'll be fairly interesting to see how Kei reacts when he has to fight his brother(I guess it'll come to that eventually).
He'll not leave Katou and the others on their own, at least he changed that much.

I think that the manga is going to be going back to the old feel again soon. With the recent devlopments in the newer chapters, it seems like we may get to see some of the ols relationships that were litteraly "cut short".
