I'm not surprised he died. 'Least Cherry didn't still have his cherry, though. Two more things: Was surprised when one of the aliens said that "God protected us", because I didn't think they believed in one. And then... My happiness when the little car Tae was in got shot down. If she didn't die, I'm going to be pissed at Oku.

Maybe God is to the aliens like what Santa is to a lot of us. Something the adults tell kids but the kids eventually find out the adults don't believe in it themselves. Or, maybe, there was a great being that came down and gave them that tech, that they dubbed God.
Or they were able to use their tech to discover that there is actually a God, and the kids just used that info and/or (if they are anywhere as dumb as human kids) decided that God must be on their side/were told by the adults that God was on their side (so like the Santa thing except instead of the aliens pretending to believe in God, they just pretend to believe in a God that's on their side and tell their children).
Most likely, though, they just actually believe in God with no legit proof, like us.
Whatever it is, Oku's probably just trying to show how similar we are to the aliens.

I'd just like to thank Oku for killing off the one character who actually remained tolerable form his first appearance up until his last. Seriously Why Sakurai Him and Nishi have been carrying Phase 3 and now we're stuck with shit.

You really had to take that blast head on didn't you sakurai? You have over half a dozen differant powers, one of them being able to sense your suroundings and another is to teleport out of the fucking way. You just saw the beam take out a mech right beside you and could have just as easily switched out yours that was being hit with the ten others around you. I could go on and on.
Then oku gives us our tenth tae chan kei chan anti-climax. And he just finished killing Reika, MM, and Sakurai in a little over five chapters. If Kaze or Nishi are harmed in any shape or form anytime soon I'm going to turn into the new Ren and start hating on Gantz more often. Damnit sakurai.
He could have atleast asked Sakata how he unlocked that little part in his brain and trained some more psychics. We now have none! None! You guys don't know how much I wish I had more happier things to say.

After cooling down a bit. I realise Sakurai tanked a city destroying blast, pretty cool. There's still no reason for it though. I had very high hopes for Cherry. The old gantz feeling of anyone can die is back in full force.

Remember guys, sakurai was already emotionally and physically drained. The reason why he got so fucked over is that he was just losing all his shit. I also think that we all know that Sakurai had nothing left to live for, and Oka portrayed that very well. His rampages were as unstable as his mind was.
We just lost another character, and the series is gonna run till november. Next issue is gonna be somekind of anniversary issue.
We all know Tae is not gonna die so easily. I mean come on people, its the love interest AND she already died once.
I want to know what Nishi is doing. I am not too butthurt about this arc now. It is giving me the feeling that things are wrapping up. Sure the series is losing some of its mystery, but after marathoning the series at our manga convention in one sitting, i came to this conclusion: Something big is gonna happen, and its gonna smack us all along side the head.
I got finals for the next two weeks. -Halo out.

It sucks that this is the end and we'll never get anything like phase 1 again. The only think Oku's doing right again is establishing that anyone can die again. Except you know, Tae and K1. Tae better be fucking dead, seriously, this is absurd.

You have over half a dozen differant powers, one of them being able to sense your suroundings and another is to teleport out of the fucking way. When has he shown teleporting ability on that level? Or sensing your surroundings at that far away and at that speed? Kurono couldn't even blink due to his eyes reacting to the blinding light before the thing had already traveled all of that way. Then we cut to Sakurai going all crazy, and the instant his eyes squint signifying that he took in the light, the next panel show him hit. Really didn't seem like he tried to take the thing head on, arrogantly. If anything he was just powering up his shields because he knew he probably wouldn't be able to react to the attack, whenever it came. Having seen its speed before. Pretty much anytime someone notices the light, it's then insta-pawn laser time. I don't think he could of reacted to this one. At least, not on the level of being able to teleport his entire body out of the way. The only time it actually showed him teleport distance it seemed like he had to concentrate a bit to do it.
