Members of the Verbalism Club unite to take a M.J.B.K. head-on! Afterwards, Akira encounters Sougon face-to-face!

With the help of a terrifying new M.J.B.K., Subete breaks the Deava's Aquarions apart and forces the pilots to retreat. In the wake of their defeat, Akira suddenly becomes strangely distant from his comrades…

Stoic, industrious Hayato drafts a comprehensive operating strategy for fighting the M.J.B.K. menace, but behind his calm façade, ambition, resentment, and jealousy whirl through his mind.

When the Verbalism Club puts on a stage play, Kokone finally gets to live her acting dream - but on opening day, she can barely say her lines. She must find her voice quickly, as a powerful new M.J.B.K. threatens to silence her permanently!

When the enigmatic Sougon unleashes the twisted power of the written word upon Tokyo, Sakurako Soda and the members of the Verbalism Club – secret soldiers of Deava – unite with the mysterious youth, Akira Kaibuki, to protect the city!

As the group prepares to track down the Suzuki alien, Tetsu’s gang is creating conflict and Nishi’s smart mouth isn’t helping the situation. When tensions boil over, blood is spilled before the hunt even begins.

A new round begins for the gang. Appearing before the Gantz, they find themselves joined by a diverse group of fresh players. As the game gets underway, Kei panics when he realizes his suit is nowhere to be found.

Kato’s patience is being tested. At home, the abuse dished out by his aunt pushes him to the breaking point. Meanwhile, at school, a group of bullies forces him to take decisive and drastic action.

Despite his best efforts, Kei remains unsatisfied during Kishimoto’s overnight stay at his apartment. At the place Kato calls home, more ugly evidence of abuse piles up.

Seemingly back among the living, Kato must protect his brother from their hateful aunt. Meanwhile, Kei’s special suit gives him an advantage against the bullies at school. But will it help him when Kishimoto appears at his door?

The scores are tallied and Nishi explains some of what he knows about the rules of the strange world of the Gantz. The unusual situation grows even odder the next day when Kei wakes - and finds that this nightmare is no dream.

With the small alien dead, the large alien exacts his revenge, slaughtering many with the group. When the creature pursues Kei, the young man quickly discovers that his physical abilities are enhanced by the suit he wears.

Facing his deadliest foe, Kei is forced to question everything he’s learned - and all that he has lost -in the twisted world of the Gantz. No matter if he lives or dies, for Kei, the game now ends.

Madness is taking over as the team hunts the two brutal maniacs in their midst. The number of fatalities grows quickly, and Kei begins to understand that the Gantz might not be his worst problem.

The new players are beginning to see just how dangerous the two bum-killing freaks really are. As the situation escalates, the members of the team look to the one person who might be able to help them survive - Kei.

With no explanation, the Gantz has chosen Kei to be hunted. At first, the rest of the players are unsure of what they should do - but the black sphere soon helps them decide that Kei should die.

Kei returns to the Gantz and finds many familiar faces will be joining him in battle. Unfortunately, Kei is shocked to see that their alien prey wears a familiar face as well.

The carnage continues and truly no one is safe. As wounded Kei struggles to stay alive, his teammates fall one after the other. When the final foe is defeated, only one player will be around to see the score.

Several players meet with gruesome ends as the living statues continue their onslaught. Tragically, one of the mutilated victims is someone very dear to Kato and Kei.

The Gantz opens, revealing unusual weaponry and odd suits. The strangers are sent into the city, ordered to kill an alien that roams the streets - and then the carnage begins.
