Gantz - Season 1 DVD
Director Ichiro Itano presents a hellish vision of the afterlife in the brutal
horror anime series GANTZ. High school student Kei and his childhood friend
Kato are helping a hobo who has fallen onto the subway tracks when they are
run over and violently decapitated by an oncoming train in a spectacularly grisly
fashion. Transported to a strange post-death limbo, the pair find themselves
in a barren room overlooking Tokyo with a motley group of strangers--including
two hotheaded gangsters and a naked young girl, whom they immediately try to
rape--as well as a mysterious black sphere known as Gantz. Kei and Kato soon
discover that they and the room's occupants are all dead and have been brought
there by Gantz as part of a secret government plot to kill criminal aliens that
roam the earth--and that if they refuse their deadly missions, they face a fate
even worse than death. Moody, stylish, and animated with veritable buckets of
crimson blood, GANTZ plays like a twisted hybrid of YU YU HAKUSHO and LA FEMME
NIKITA, with graphic violence and nudity deemed too graphic to be aired on Japanese
television without major edits and re-cropping. Produced by the team behind
CHRONO CRUSADE and PEACEMAKER, this collection presents the series' first season
in its entirety for a total of 23 episodes.
