Wow... everyone got their shit fucked up on the Tokyo team front.
As the chapter starts, the tokyo team faces down the nuarhyon or whatever and Inaba says that together they can probably beat it, but Reika says instead to use their suits to clear it and run away. Suddenly, Suzuki-san's arms fucking explode and his suit breaks! And the Tokyo teams all like "What up with that!?" and they start trying to get away from it, Kaze gets Takeshi to safety for the time being and Inaba attempts to jump over it. He almost makes it, but suddenly, his arms and one leg explodes in mid-air and only Sakurai, Sakata, and Reika are left facing it. Sakata begins holding the monster back with his powers, causing massive blood flow from his eyes, nose, mouth, etc. He buys time for Reika, holding Suzuki-san and Sakurai to jump over the monster and escape and as they go, Sakata things "You better not even think of bringing me back" or something to that extent. We then see Sakata's glasses break in half, but before we can see what that bastard's mysterious eyes look like, we cut to the last two pages of Oka in his giant mech that we finally see all of. Then we see the person inside at the very top is in some kind of weird, giant gantz suit including a face mask so we can't tell what they look like.

Wow, that chapter made me shit myself, I thought they were all dead. I was like 'Yes!' when Kaze got past Nuri with Takeshi, and then crapped it when Inaba's escape failed. Well I guess this is the end of Sakata, but I hope the others escape.

I can't help but want to take a knife to the Gantz Mech to actually see it's mechanical guts.

Know I begrudgingly like Inaba. I dunno why, but seeing him act all hopeful and confident during this confrontation made him seem all sorts of cool, lol

Yeah, lol. When he said 'We can fight it,' or 'Isn't that a bit cowardly?' or something, and in the next frame Sakurai and the Old Man's mouths were hanging open, I wondered if it was cause of what Inaba had said or because of the alien.

Inabas always getting owned, he's like the fall guy of their group.

Now the people that I'm hoping live through the mission are:
Masaru Katou (Obviously, just look at my nickname lol)
Anzu (She seems pretty cool so far)
Inaba (Now with his new badassery except he's getting his shit kicked up quite badly)
Kaze (Do I even need a reason for this?)
And maybe Oka, but I dunno, he/she could be an asshole lol

I think there's something fundimentally wrong with putting badassery in the same sentance with Inaba. Especially since he just got owned by that thing without relaly doing anything.
That's sort of like this guy I work with who says that just because Jackie Chan does all his stunts doesn't mean he can fight. After which he said he did all of his stunts. So I ask him what his stunts are. And the guy throws a towel on the ground and says "that's my stunt!"

Keep in mind that it wasn't until just before Kei died that Inaba started to toughen up and until that point he had been ditching training and what not so that meant while his attitude might have changed, he still has to learn shit.

Inabas always getting owned, he's like the fall guy of their group. Not so, he just runs off. Old Man's the one who's always getting his arms and legs blown off. But yeah, unless he got really good during training between the Oni mission and this one (which I doubt), then he's still not bad-ass. Still, I like him and hope he lives. I agree with Dane about who I want to live; Kaze, Takeshi, Katou and Anzu, as well as Kuwabara, Nishi and Takeshi. I'm not too fussed about Reika, Old Man or Sakurai. |

Eh... I don't want Kuwabara to live, but that's just because I can't think of anything worse than rapists.

i pretty much agree on who i want to live... but this is who im pretty sure WILL live...
1)Katou - he's gota bring back kei
2)Anzu - new love interest... will also make some drama later if he brings back kishimoto (which i hope he dosnt... she annoys the crap out of me)
3)Cherry - he needs to live so we have the whole should i bring my master back? drama
4)Kaze/Takeshi - im afraid Kaze may end up dieing protecting takeshi... but i dont think he will, perhaps they will kill takeshi so kaze goes on a berserking rage
5)Reika - needs to come back also for drama reasons with kei when he comes back
6)Nerdo - i dont know why... but i just have a feeling he will survive lol
7)Kuwabara - he has too live because katou said he would no matter what :S so for katou to save his life is to keep credability to the rest
8)Oka - This is up in the air... Much like Old man and Inaba, they may live or die, thats undecided

Oh shit, yeah, I forgot about Nerdo. He's gotta live. He's been way too awesome this mission to die.

I just can't wait to see what kind of weapons Oka has on that mech; I'm sure he'll at least have something pretty sweet. I'm glad Inaba stopped being a fussy baby and decided to fight, but unfortunately, he's going to actually have to do something worth while for me to view him as anything but a big-mouth. I'm kind of hoping that Oka will weaken the boss and his mech and then almost die, and Kato will KS the boss, but even without the 100 points, I think Kato probably has enough to revive Kei at this point. I'm sort of curious as to where Host Samurai went off to, also...

There's no doubt in my mind that HS will survive. I think the female vamp will probably survive long enough to say a little too much about Gantz to her bosses, though... We'll have to just wait and see, I suppose.
