Thread: Gantz 287 Discussion/288 Prediction

Damn, the japanese don't fuck around. They take their bullying seriously.

I really think the next chapter won't be a Nishi one ^^'

Either that or we'll just be shown the aftermath; say the chapter begins with another team member and then it switches to Nishi's classroom, with him beating up the last punk and his girlfan saying something like "stop it nishi-kun" or "you should really do it", and then kicks her out of the window.

I just love the prediction business, especially 'cause mine are almost never right.

@ Nu-delic: I don't really picture Nishi as a sword using type though...

haha, I like, I like.

I think he have to kill everyone, because if someone sees him using Gantz weapons, then Gantz will kill him...

^But if he only uses the suit and beat them up to death, then there's no problem.
The only problem would be in case he decided to use the x-gun.

However, for Nishi to beat everyone up... that's bound to bring up too much attention.
Of course, since catastrophe is about to happen, then maybe there isn't too much of a problem. Say, how many days are left, three?

I doubt that'd work. Remeber the dude from the beginning who got ambushed by a gang. Gantz killed him long before he could finish them all off because they saw the gun (i think).
I mean if Nishi whips out a gun and starts killing his classmates other classmates will see the gun. He would have to kill them all in a short amount of time for it to work, I think. Or all in one blow, for example with a roundhouse extended sword attack.
So I'm with Cali on this one. If he wants to kill them, he has to do it with his bare hands just using the suit, everything else is too risky (we know he isn't the risky type). Plus, it could bring him to a new level. He enjoys killing cats but we only saw him shot them with the gun. Killing something with his bare hands and a human at that (I doubt he killed with his hands or a human before) could really change the bastard. And not for the better. It might even change his gantz approach (just using stealth) a bit. I doubt that though.

I have to say apart from throwing him out the windows (mobs really do get carried away it seems) they treated him exactly how he deserves it.

^On the deserving matter... I'm not sure, who's to say he didn't become quite a bastard because of bullying to begin with? Anyhow, since I like Nishi regardless of him being a bastard as a cause or consequence, it's fine with me.

As for Tetsuo's case, Gantz didn't even give him the chance to shoot, blocking his senses making him unable to pull the trigger, then discretely destroying his brain internally. However, when Tetsuo tried selling the gun, there was no problem, because there was no way for the person to escape. In the other case, since Tetsuo was facing a multitude, that was a no go, and there's also the matter of him mentioning Gantz name, which might have pissed Gantz off too (we're still unsure whether he kills it only on a secrecy basis or also leaning on preference issues...)

Nishi killing barehanded and that giving him a "boost" would be very interesting too. But punching someone to death doesn't particularly strike as Nishi's style, even if he manages to do so with the classroom. Alien hunting is more of a tactical matter (in some cases), which makes Nishi and his stealth already a good strategy, even though it's failed here and there. He might however develop more of a sadistic side, and use the x-gun or y-gun to disable the alien oponents and then have a few punches at them, maybe. Just another unlikely guess.

Fuck me i wish that chapter was longer! I kind of doubt the next chapter will be about Nishi, seeing as Oku is a prick. However, if it is, Fkin A!

@feanor. he's allready on a serious level, he didn't hesitate to kill that biker guy in the tanaka-alien mission. Why would it be hard for him to kill a bunch of dickheads who bullied and almost killed him.

"Four issues in a row"? Does that mean there's not going to be 1-week break now?
