Overview
Gantz is a sexually-charged sci-fi head-trip' a gory experiment in flesh and blood where the only thing worse than dying is dying again.
If you are chosen by the bizarre black sphere known as the Gantz, you are already dead. You remember dying, yet you can eat, sleep, have sex; it feels a lot like life. Strangers join you in this limbo. While some are good, some are very bad. All are dead like you for now.
You might be able to reclaim your mortality. But first, the Gantz demands that you undertake missions of brutality and madness, killing aliens hidden among the population. It is your only chance and you have no choice. You must play this disturbing game. You must experience this nightmare. And if you die again and you likely will it's permanent.

Starting from the scene where the homeless man falls on the rails, and everyone is standing and watching, I realized that it would be quite a psychedelic! The script is built around human immorality, which modern society is mired in. No one values human life. No matter what life is, no one appreciates anything but themselves! The whole world has sunk into its "loneliness" and is mired in self-flagellation: "how good I am, and all the bad ones don't like me and don't understand me."
The main characters die and end up somewhere. Conditions are set: kill the aliens and you will come back to life, or finally and irrevocably die.
But would you kill for your own life? I'm not. I can't kill a human, an animal, an alien, whatever. I just can'T kill. That's why I perfectly understand the main characters: crying, afraid, shaking, fucking and shitting themselves in front of the prospect.
The anime ends at the most interesting place, but the main thing is what kind of subs I came across! Just before the start of the final shooting (wow!), the inscription lit up at the bottom of the screen: "Your Kurono is alive, read the manga =)". And what is extremely rare for me, I went to read an unfinished (as always, damn it) manga! To date, this psychedelic adventure has exceeded 31 volumes, and the events in the anime are just crumbs in the abyss! Of course, after the manga, anime seems sluggish, boring, strange, and generally draining. But I've seen it "before", so it remains my "ze best" no matter what!
