Gantz is a Japanese series of live-action action horror science fiction[1] films. The Gantz series is based on Hiroya Oku's manga series, Gantz. The films are titled Gantz, the sequel Gantz: Perfect Answer, and a made-for-TV movie titled Another Gantz.

The first film, starring Kazunari Ninomiya and Kenichi Matsuyama, follows two high school students who die and are transported to an alternate world. In this alternate reality, a black sphere gives them a mission to kill aliens.

Plot

Gantz (2011)

The film follows two young men, Kei Kurono (Kazunari Ninomiya) and Masaru Kato (Kenichi Matsuyama),[2] who are killed in a train accident. After their deaths they find themselves transported to another world, where there exists a black ball known as Gantz.[3] Inside the Gantz is a bald man on life support.[4] They find the Gantz in an unfurnished Tokyo apartment, and it forces them to take part in missions to hunt down and kill aliens. They struggle to figure out whether it is a game, or reality.[5] Kurono and Kato, and other newly dead people must accumulate points by killing aliens, and when they score one hundred points, they can choose to be resurrected, or bring a person of their choosing back to life.[2]

Another Gantz (2011)

Airing on TV before Gantz: Perfect Answer, Another Gantz is an alternate version of the first Gantz film. The film follows an investigative journalist leading into the sequel Gantz: Perfect Answer.

Gantz: Perfect Answer (2011)

In Part two, Kei has become a warrior for Gantz, seeking to earn 100 points. Kei aims to bring Kato back to life, who had died in the world of Gantz.[2] He is working at a fast food restaurant, while taking care of his friend's orphaned little brother.[6] In between missions, Kei lives his old life, and has a relationship with Tae (Yuriko Yoshitaka), an artist. He succeeds in bringing Masaru back to life, but Masaru comes back as two people - one good, and the other one evil. There is also an investigator, Shigeta (Takayuki Yamada), who is trying to understand the Gantz-related violence, and Eriko Ayukawa (Ayumi Ito), an actress who wakes up with a small Gantz ball in her bed.[2] Soon, aliens begin to take on alien form and attack the main characters, and the Gantz ball begins to experience glitches.[4] The fighting culminates in a battle on board a subway with shapeshifting aliens.

Reception

Entertainment Today said that the first installment of Gantz was good, but that the voice-over work detracted from the experience.[14] Twitch Film published the review of regular reader Brandon Tenold, who stated that the effects were "quite impressive" and called it "a pretty good slice of Japanese-style popcorn cinema."[15] The Japan Times called the second film, Gantz: Perfect Answer, an action-packed but disappointing followup.[16]
