Yahari and Oreimo were great this week.
Titan was good, but it's starting to feel a little "shouneny". Hope it retakes that dark, frightening feelig of the first two episodes at some point in the next few episodes.
^ This. I dropped the show. But that's just me losing my taste in Shounen in general. IHunter X Hunter 2011 is the only Shounen I'm watching.

And now we're supposed to be agreeing with the humans that are crying?
The thing is, with Gantz, we're not supposed to anything. There's not one character in the role of the relatable, likeable and agreeable fellow. We're not supposed to feel like we want to be a character in it.
Given that understanding, it's most brilliant, twisted, nightmarish and crude stuff straight out of a psychoanalysis hypnosis session mixed in with drugs. Much truth about the world to be felt there. :happy:
But honest, I've not read the manga, and the art 'n some panels do seem so-so. Yet the anime is, despite its poor budget and very risque B-movie messiness really cool and sort of deep. Touching even.
You've not once felt it was a relevant idea that man is messed up and often more disattached and stupid in regards to his surrounding "others" - you'know, animals and nature for example (all sort of minorities, or "strangers" for another example)? Moreso, the primal attitude of man so very often shows up in real messed up colors to it - killing, maiming, hurting his fellow men et al et cetera... With emotions so sharp and alluring to be held, yet utterly irrational and twisted. Yet often it's even more crazed - one's psychopathic tendencies can come about by knowledge of the rational, of the "soulless" so to say. By means of a "helping" science.

So SHUT UP!
Instead of crying, they should be asking those aliens for some more stuff.
Like
"hmm, btw, can you give us some things to extend our life and such?" "Since it's not a big deal for you, and you see us as ants anyway."
"No?"
"mmk."
Or.
"Since it's just dust and all... can you make everyone's boobs perfect?"
"It's pointless, all of you will die and never be remem-"
"Yeah less talk, more boobage."
I think I could be in that room all day until they killed me for being too annoying.

But the thing is, most probable in a setting like Gantz would be Fear. And that's pretty darn well and convincingly depicted. Immersive. Doesn't matter if it's a stupid notion to have in real life, the fear of strangers others, of existence, and of losing one's existence or values seems a real powerful concept 'n all.

But that is not what the aliengodfacething said. He said humans are just things, things that we don't matter.
If we are things that don't matter, what is fear to us? Nothing
Aliengodfacething knows more than us because... because.

He does these things! But he could have easily not done these things!
He is deep like that.

@pictures
Yeah, it's wangst. Only that it's so very intentionally this vulgar and crude over-the-top thing
in Gantz. The show (/manga??) never wants to do things in a normally subtle
way.

This is Oku trying to tell us... something.
Something dumb.

From your long rant which I didn't even fully read I can clearly tell you're looking waaaaaaaaay to much into it.
Listen to eroeru, he's on the right track about Gantz.
Gantz is over the top fun, like a Quintin Tarrentino movie. It was never supposed to be anything more than that.
Gantz is good at what it's supposed to do.
Also, the aliens are right, humans ARE trash and we DO suck big time as a species. We are worse than the animals in the wild because we do horrible crap while we should know better.
