um hey, i just finished reading almost to the present point of gantz chapters and thot it was really kik ass. I just wish i cood find more mangas like gantz but its so hard. I've only read like 6 different ones. SO any manga at all that can include Violence, Strong Plot, good Characters, and maybe some comedy. (ecchi aint to bad either 😀 ) Please tell me some XD i also like manga that are not ongoing so i can just say im done with it and not wait for small chapters. Long mangas also tend to be a good story to me. SO YEAH HELP ME 5b9u

I'm also interested in a manga like Gantz. The most important thing for me though would be the "any of the main characters could be killed off at any moment" factor. That's damn awesome if you ask me.

Tokyo Illusion

I think you could try Kisejjuu (parasite). It's got the necessary violence and at least I didnt see anything wrong with the plot 😀

"I feel like shit, but at least I fell something"
In Flames - Disconnected
Positive thinking is always good 😀

Battle Royale?

Battle Royale is an excellent recommendation, too bad I've already seen it. 🙁 But yeah, I recommend it too.

Tokyo Illusion

dunno if you read it already but claymore is pretty badaz

@Jomommaz Fill public reading list in your profile, so we can know what mangas you alredy reading ...

seconding battle royale
and berserk <----amazing
and ichi the killer <-- violent beyond imagination

While Berserk is good, i don't think it quite lives up to Gantz. I think it's a little too predictable.

I think it's rather hard to recommend a manga "like" GantZ.
The mangaka specifically stated himself that he was trying to push the limits on creating the most violent, whacked out, crazy story that present day companies would be willing to publish.
So that kind of limit's your choices eh?

Try Eden, got what you were looking for, except not ecchi and not a finished story. Might be a little too intellectual for the Gantz fan base.

tenjou tenge
but the plot is kinda confusing iirc

Hoshi no Samidare has an oddly similar setup to Gantz and a small amount of the associated death. I wouldn't say it's 'like Gantz', but it reminded me of it a lot while I was reading it.

Mmm, guess Elfen Lied has the various elements of huge amounts of gore and ecchiness. If you think Gantz has a strong plot I guess Elfen Lied's won't be a problem for you.

Mirai Nikki maybe?

I dunno - the last thing that comes to mind when someone says 'Gantz' is 'strong plot', so ... yeah - these don't, but you might enjoy them anyway.
