| So I just finished re-reading the manga and ... it is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good. I won't mention any spoilers, but it is such a great story. My top 3 anime/manga are: - BERSERK - Blame! - GANTZ Imo it is one of the few quintessential, super high quality stories that EVERYONE who wants to call himself a weeb needs to have seen. Unfortunately, the anime ends way early and, honestly, messes up the presentation in a lot of places, so a reboot that tells the whole story from start to the end of the manga would be necessary. New anime, a video game adaptation, bring it on. Kurono is one of the best heroes in fiction and my god, the girls are so hot. Reika <3. |
| If you haven't watched "Fantastic Children", don't talk about "best anime". Thank you. |
| gantz season 1 was watchable, s2 wasn't that fun . i guess , remake might be better. |

It probably won't ever get one. I hate to be pessimistic, since it's also one of my favorite manga, but it's too old and not popular enough. Not only that, but it's also really violent and horny and it's alot harder to show stuff like that on Japanese TV nowadays compared to when the original adaptation was made. The only hope it has is if netflix decides to adapt it randomly like they sometimes do with other old manga (Pluto, 7 Seeds, etc.) and if you've seen both of those then you know how hit or miss the quality can be. Berserk on the other hand has more hope, as it's way more popular and also popular in the west. If I remember correctly, the producer behind castlevania said he'd love to do a berserk adaptation, which would again be netflix.
| @ptero93 But that's the thing: Gantz is "realistic-horny", it's not fan-service (outside of the chapter covers, lol). Sex just happens, rape happens, horny guys happen, because that's what happens irl. It's not comparable to some ecchi-fanservice that adds nothing to the story. Gantz portrays real society and how shitty people are and that's, well, pretty accurate. I would agree, though, that boobs are the biggest problem for a new adaptation. There's little giant boob monsters later on, lol. |

| Well, another would imply it's ever had a faithful anime adaptation, but... |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |

It doesnt matter the intent, we'd have to get a heavily censored version either way. Just look at the modern jojo adaptation vs the original ova. The only way to see jojo uncensored is to buy the blu ray or watch the adult swim broadcast. Can you even think of the last time you saw uncensored nudity or hyperviolence in an anime?
| @ptero93 Chainsaw Man? |

| He said super high quality story for Gantz lol |

that's not really hyperviolence, the most recent example I can think of is edgerunners, which is again netflix. man it's always damn netflix
| @ptero93 "Chainsaw Man is not really hyper violence" Are you dumb? |

I guess it is upon reflection, but it lacks that feel that old stuff like gantz or berserk has so I guess I just doesn't feel the same? idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
| @ptero93 "that feel" being good writing where the violence actually makese sense within the story and has consequences. Unlike something like Chainsaw Man which is also hyperviolent, even moreso than Gantz actually, but the violence is without consequence, because at the end of the day the heroes will just regenerate any wounds. Yes, modern anime suck |
