he killed alot of aliens with nuri's head, but does that actually count as a weapon kill for nerdo, or would it just be considered nuri's kill and nobody gets the points for it?

Do I need to repeat my 'Katou-accidentally-reviving-Kishimoto-by-asking-Gantz-to-revive-'Kei-chan'-and-Gantz-being a-dick-as-usual-theory?' What's wrong with Katou scoring 100 points? (as long as Kurono doesn't immediately come back)

Anyway - I don't think anything about the scoring can take away my relief that this mission's finally frickin' done.

Oh yeah, sorry. It's all teiohx credit, thank you.

This arc took exactly 40 chapters (Phase 2 began with chapter 23, that's the longest arc yet. I hope we never see a new arc so long.

Now, was Nuri killed by HS or Katou in the end? And why did he die so suddenly?

^ or perhaps Nerdo?
Gawd... I need to know how this ends!!!

My Perfect result of this story is Katou reviving Kurono and then together they beat the game and both get a hundred points.

But that most likely wont happen

The worst case is that katou goes free and the series ends. That would blow.

But Katou getting the points I saw coming

is this real?? is this actually happening?? IS NURI REALLY DEAD???????????????????

zomg.

At the moment, my guess remains with Katou, seeing as he pancaked everything that was left of Nuri while HS just chopped him in half.

As for the second question - I don't think Oku will ever bother explaining how Nuri got killed exactly with all the other, bigger mysteries left open. I think it's a combination of Cali's theory and what Katou suspected: if Nuri is unable to prepare himself for incoming damage, it takes him a lot longer to regenerate and if he uses enormous offensive powers (like his crazy eyes and psychic powers), he's also more vulnerable.

Nishi could've killed him with the H-Gun sneak-attack, but Nuri's arm that was left was able to prepare himself for the next blast. If you look carefully when Behemoth-Nuri appears, he re-emerges from the pool of blood around the part the arm was lying. Of course, Oka's move was proof about the sneak-attack thing - he definitely caught Nuri off-guard in the legendary milkshake moment and it took a lot longer for him to change, even though the only damage that had been done to him was caused by a Gantz Sword.

Now, thanks to Katou's plan, Nuri was getting shot to pieces over and over again while he couldn't tell where exactly the attacks were coming from. Rather than change forms, he instead wanted to finish the Gantzers off with his eye-beams, also lowering his regenerative abilities.

Nuri was already weakened when Host Samurai chopped him from behind; so much damage (which he can't easily regenerate) + an H-Gun shot = dead Nuri.

It's a damn shame... George died for nothing...lol

That's a very good explaination, a pity Cali isn't around. Like we saw at the first attack against Nuri, he's vulnerable against far away attacks.

I've been thinking that gantz wouldnt be giving him the points since the first chapter when nerdo uses nuris head to kill stuff, haha i hope it doesnt count I can picture gantz being a dick about that..
