The three volumes (28-30) collected in this omnibus are all about the 'Katastrophe' a global extinction event. Volume 28 details the attack on Japan, volume 29 details an attempted fightback by our players and volume 30 sees a crazy chase as our main protagonist looks to find and save the one they love! The aliens in this arc a sight to behold, such well conceived and drawn:
This 'Katastrophe' phase of Gantz really puts the series even firmer on the map for me; instead of the presumable whole Gantz reveal the entire series takes a left turn, and what a delight; the art continues to fascinate and scare; easily the best manga I've ever read. 8 out 12, Four Star read.

I feel like I just got rickrolled. I started out reading Gantz, but I ended up reading Manfried the Man. Wild.
The final phase of the series brings epic destruction to the world. And as it burns, the Gantz team is basically tossing teaspoons of water at the conflagration, trying to make a difference but making little progress.
Everything is so over the top now -- especially Tae's odyssey -- that I can only laugh and go along for the ride. The roller coaster has left the rails but it's going to do some loop-de-loops and barrel rolls before it plows into the ground.

This has been probably my least favorite volume so far, just for one particular reason: A lot of panels, specially in the first 1/3 of the book, had so much detail and shadowing that it was extremely difficult to understand what the hell was going on.
This arc is pretty nuts and it stars to give some answer to what Gantz is, even though in an indirect form, but the visual narrative is extremely noisy.
After the first 1/3 of the book things start to slow down and becoming normal again, which I have to say, it was a lot more pleasing.
In the last 1/3 I was actually enjoying it a lot again.
I can tell Hiroya probably struggled to put all that was in his mind into paper, specially now that the series is reaching the end and it needs a wrap up. I already felt this in the previous volume and warned about it going off the rails. Let's hope this doesn't get worst.
I like what it has been revealed so far, but I can't stop thinking that Gantz was probably better when there was more mystery around it.

These books are all kind of messed up. But still, I found myself unable to stop flipping pages. The world just keeps opening up the more you read. I can't wait for the next volume!

This omni took a turn!! I’m very curious to see where this new arc takes us and how this series will wrap up!

January 1, 2023A lot of people apparently hate the Katastrophe arc but holy shit I don’t know why. This is insanity.

Well, this takes a turn for the harrowing.
I like it. I mean, I was liking Gantz, but I'm down for a series where things are still accelerating deep into the arc, like me stupidly accelerating deep into a roundabout because I'm an American and the only way I know how to deal with unfamiliar things on the road is to hit the gas and hope that if things go wrong, there's a personal injury lawyer ad on a bus that will go by, which is likely in terms of the number of personal injury lawyer ads around here, unlikely in terms of frequency of public transportation.

Excellent! Not much text, a ton, but I mean a TON of action, amazing twist in the stoy and great artwork! I love it!

So much is happening it's insane! But the craziest is going to an alien planet.

Much like Attack on Titan, the stakes and threats here just keep growing and growing to massive proportions, often times literally.

having 2 kei’s is probably the only way they survive this all tbh these alien horse looking bastards are weird as hell and i don’t even understand what they have to do with anything and what the gantz ball has to do with them or how it was even man made soooooo but im sure they’ll wrap it all together in the last 2
