ガンツ

Information

Description

Blurb:
The last thing Kei and Masaru remember was being struck dead by a subway train while saving the life of a drunken bum. What a waste! And yet somehow they’re still … alive? Or semi-alive? Maybe it’s reanimated … by some kind of alien orb with a nasty message … “Your lives are over. What you do with your new lives is up to me!” And what this orb called “Gantz” intends to do with their lives is make them play games of death, hunting all kinds of odd aliens, along with a bunch of other ordinary citizens who’ve recently met a tragic semi-end. The missions they embark upon are often dangerous. Many die-and die again.
Klappentext:
Kei und sein Freund Masaru eilen einem Obdachlosen zur Hilfe, der auf die Gleise der U-Bahn gestürzt ist – und werden selbst von einem Zug erfasst und getötet. Doch statt im Jenseits erwachen die beiden in einem leeren Raum, in dessen Mitte sich eine mysteriöse schwarze Kugel befindet: Gantz.

Kei und Masaru sind nach ihrem Tod gefangen, aber sie sind nicht allein. Umgeben von Fremden, von denen jeder ein anderes tragisches Schicksal erlitten hat, erfahren sie den Grund für ihr unerwartetes Überleben. Gantz hat sie zu sich gerufen, um sie dazu zu zwingen, an einem tödlichen Spiel teilzunehmen. Ausgerüstet mit speziellen Anzügen und Waffen sollen sie Aliens vernichten, die heimlich auf der Erde leben … oder selbst den endgültigen Tod finden.
Texto de presentación:
La historia comienza cuando dos jóvenes mueren en el metro intentando salvar la vida a un vagabundo que ha caído a las vías. El tren les alcanza y les decapita en una escena de lo más gore, pero en ese momento aparecen en un extraño apartamento en el que se encuentran otras personas que también han escapado de la muerte en el último momento. El grupo se ve obligado, so pena de morir (esta vez verdad), a participar en un juego macabro en el que deben eliminar a unos aliens infiltrados entre la población de Tokio. Para ello les entregan un equipo de armas y rastreo high-tech.

Hiroya Oku nos ofrece una historia intrigante de ciencia-ficción desde la primera página, ilustrada con un grafismo espectacular con tecnología 3D. Te dejará sin aliento y con ganas de más.
Testo della bandella:
Esiste qualcosa dopo la morte? Risponde Hiroya Oku con un manga … i cui protagonisti sono tutti defunti. Ma invece che in una tomba, si ritrovano dentro una stanza chiusa, in compagnia di una grande sfera che pare faccia da tramite tra i due mondi. I personaggi raggruppati in quel luogo non hanno nulla in comune fra loro e vengono inspiegabilmente riportati nel mondo reale per catturare una creatura misteriosa …
