Okay, so I've just been watching Gantz and found out something. Not all damage done to a person is healed upon their first time coming to a Gantz room. At the beginning of the Suzuki alien mission, one of the bikers that comes into the room is missing some teeth. This means that missing parts of people aren't regenerated as long as they've healed. Like, when my character, Ash, came to Northern, he wouldn't have gotten his hand back, and my new character, Edwin, will still have his Chelsea Cut, Adam (Or whatever the tongueless guys name is in Forever) would still be out a tongue. So, this means that, while burns, cuts, etc. are fixed upon entering the room, missing limbs or anything else like that is still gone if it's actually healed, but is still missing. Though, it's obvious from when Kurono and Katou got hit by the train that limbs that are lost during the death, or that haven't healed yet will be fixed upon entering the room.

Gantz heals things that didnt happen naturally to a character, more like returning them to how they were at birth. Like losing teeth could be caused by bad hygiene or old age. For the people u've mentioned They would get back wutever they were missing because they werent born that way and those were caused by an outside force. If this were the way Gantz healed people then wouldn't Katou and Kurono not be in Gantz since they're heads were removed from their bodies?

Because, as I said in the first post, that happened when they died and it was an open, gushing wound, so it quite clearly hadn't healed over.

if this were true then people would still have scars. I think you need to revise your theory some.

Cancer was natural for that old man...why did Gantz heal that?

not all cancer is natural, like lung cancer can be developed from smoking cigarettes too much.

Okay this is stupid...gantz heals all things cept age... If we think too much on shit like this we'll only annoy and confuse ourselves. Lets just stick to what is obvious.

Gantz can cure cancers, restores any wounds, removed Kurono's and Katou old scars, etc. He is, however, also a complete bastard, and couldn't bothered to restore the biker's teeth. There, that should fill in the p(l)ot hole!

lol better explanation than any i've heard.
another thing; supposing someone was born with a deformity, but got surgery to correct it; I'm guessing gantz would leave that alone, but there's nothing to show one way or the other from what i've seen.

If that's the case...if kekko got her penis removed it'd come right back. Sorry J...looks like your stuck with it.

Let's hold onto this complete bastard concept. So, what do you think he'd do?

why u gotta bring southern in this ronnie? That sounds a bit a bit off topic even tho sum people might wonder about it, but to elaborate on the subject i think gantz restores a persons body to how they were at birth, healing scars and what not but i dont think it would heal deformities other birth related issues.

It is on topic, but its a touchy topic for you my friend. I was was curious if Gantz would heal a character like that if they were to get it removed for future reference since were on the topic of restoration.

now where did i say it reverts a person back to an infantile state? I merely used "how they were at birth" to express that the person wouldn't have any disfigurements or ailments acquired throughout their life time. If you were poking fun then I'm just helping to explain my post, if not then simply put, I guess...

see the way I see it, gantz heals all superficial stuff (scars, cosmetic surgery such as mole removal, and probably even penis removal in kekko's case), but I think he would leave surgery that affects someone's effectiveness (for example if someone was born with some sort of heart defect, and they had to get surgery to fix it, they would die without medical attention if gantz were to fix it). One way around this is to say that gantz simply fixes any problems with their physiology; I.E. he would just make the person's heart fully functional. That's how I see it, anyways.
edit: You are infantile at birth. thanks for playing.

What he does is photoshop (or noy) a saved image of the person to his specifications. This explains the copied survivors, the memory remodelings, the teeth, illnesses and the missing scars.
If he does follow some guidelines, he does so in an apparently whimsical way - and so may the mod when RPing him.

I think its up to the mod, who is gantz to decide this... It would only make sense until we know for sure about the details for now if we leave the extent of the healing of individuals upon entering into a room to the 'mod A.K.A. Gantz' of that room. I think it was KBell who brought it up somewhere that we have only really seen the way Tokyo's Gantz works and acts, so theres no way to tell if they would all necessarily 'feel' like healing them the same way. From what I saw Osaka's gantz is named after some kind of candy ball, treats the Osaka team like crap, and is also female. For all we know the Osaka Gantz might like to fuck with the teams more then Tokyo's, such as leaving scars or not returning body parts. Its probable best to leave the basic guide line that people get damage from their death fixed, other then that things such as deformity from birth, or say a cut off hand that healed over years and was no longer there, might be best left to the mod to decide how they want to handle that situation. Thought consistency would be nice, since everyone has equal chances and all.

Like I've said time and time again...were different from the manga and the anime. Sure we don't sway from them too much, but since were the rp theres bound to be differences. Thats why I state time and time again that the FAQ, rules and mechanics should be glanced at periodically. They are constantly updated and there alot of differences from that and what you probably are already familiar with.
The mod should decide to what extent wounds are healed that are acquired during a character's life, but it is a rule that gantz heals all wounds given to gantzers during missions, logs and after death to get into gantz. If a mod can somehow formulate a plan around this they can do as they please, but thats the rule.
This has been resolved...pm me if theres anything else you'd like to ask about this.
