Another Gantz series? I mean the first series took a good while to finish. Inuyashiki is the only new work that is finished. Now we got another Gantz.
Okay 3 volumes. DH would've been better off putting this in a omnibus instead of milking it.

At least the one good thing about them finally releasing the "omnibus format" is that we can now purchase the entire series for students to read.

[We owned 6 vols now we're getting vol. 7 because I decided to order one book a month until I reached half. We wouldn't get anymore but we had a student requesting later vols. We just don't have the space for 37 vols. We barely have room for 12 let alone 24 singles. But a few issues is good enough as an example. However you're going to get someone who is going to request the rest. But some are deserving of that space (I'm looking at you 20th century). And it can be years before you see a collection. So my goal is to replace incomplete sets. Purchase a few new titles, take requests when necessary then go back and replace the older sets with the collected volumes. Provided they END and we can house them.They take up less space and students can now get the whole story. But we're not looking to house 30+ omnibus books either. LOL.]

So now we can provide that service to students.

So this is basically like all those Battle Royale spinoff manga? Was Oku even involved in making this?
