@@cagneybillingsley2165 it make sense perfectly, remember that science took over and people started to believe there’s no God and no point in existence in general, with that said we exist because we happen to be and we want to exist because again it happen to be like that, what makes us still wanting as humans to exist are feelings, emotions, even tho we know there’s no point. So with that said he’s experiencing fate worse than death because he doesn’t feel alive and don’t have any emotions, just like a regular rock for example. He exist because he happen to be and he knows there’s no reason, except him killing people which helps him to feel at least something. If drugs help people to feel satisfaction, then it is killing for him. Just think that way.
God, Inuyashiki is so great. Seeing an old man as an MC is so unique and the story is just so so good and even though Hiro feels like a mindless killer in the beginning but when you look deeper you see the reflection between the two characters and how they overlap yet how differently they are because of how they where raised and their experiences because of their age. Also, that ending is just one of the best and saddest.
Since the moment the dog was not hit by the UFO, I was fearing for its life, for I was emotionally invested in it. It was a blanket check for the creator to pull on the strings without losing anything else... And yet, they did not. They pulled the strings that truly mattered, and gave a great bittersweet ending... I wanted to criticise the antagonist for being inconsistent, flopping between 'kill whomever' and 'I shall never kill again'. But then again, it is not just random for story convinience, it is integral to the character. A monster for sure, but even a monster has loved ones. Tried to change, but was also addicted to that spark. A mass murder who tried his last shot at redemption... and missed. Which is in the end good for the story. Any other ending would lack the impact.
I haven't watched the series yet (but will try to now due to this two-parter reminding me _Inuyashiki_ existed), but I imagine it helps Shishigami's "inconsistency" that he's also literally a teenager trying to figure out what he wants like basically every other teenager (and person). That doesn't excuse his horrible actions at all of course, but after the random killings he stops doing after talking to his mother it about, he seems rather consistent about killing only in "retribution". Too bad his sense of "retribution" is wildly draconian and abstract in scope since it's pretty clear that he doesn't "get" people at all beyond the very, very few he can connect with in some way through all the emptiness. Honestly, he's pretty consistent; it's just that his motives come off as alien since he's so emotionally disconnected from most things and people. Those very traits that doom him to being such an isolated murderer are more consistent than a lot of character development I've seen unfortunately. In fact, it makes the seemingly few parts where he does have a genuine emotional reaction probably stand out as more of a gut punch, especially once you find out he also consistently seems incapable of lying since he just doesn't get other people at all. So if anything, then it is pretty great writing that they were able to write a seemingly sociopathic character who commits monstrous actions yet not only does so without making him cartoonishly evil or "just because" but also letting him somehow still have some sympathetic qualities that don't excuse him either.
It’s called psychosis, real killers in real life act the way the antagonist does hence how nonsensical it may at first seem. As you can tell they were not souless machines they were merely upgraded humans, therefor could still feel emotions and have a consciousness proven by the amount of tears they’ve been shedding and actions they have committed.
3:46 This was hilarious. The guy was saying "Please kill me, bro." because he didn't believe. And then there was the guy who was flipping him off with both hands. Lol
I remember seeing this years back when I was still pretty young, the blood and killing kind of scarred me. But looking back at it through this recap, I really enjoy this anime. The end is just so beautiful and sad.
Damn, that was actually really good. Ending had me tearing up a bit. Also, despite his actions, I didn't really hate Shishigami and could even level with him some times. You know a show is good when it can create nuances with its heroes and villains.
Oh yeah, this dude's killed thousands of people for no particular reason, except to kill, but y'know! He's alright, I can level with him. Ok. I get he's an onion, but he's an onion you hate. No other option. It's like, "Oh I get Hitler. I can level with him." No! No.
I enjoyed the way this was narrated. It made the anime tragic and sincere in the right places. The part "there are 4 more episodes, it's about to get dark" was delivered perfectly.
Both of the machines are very relatable and humane - Ichirou is a desperate man and sees himself as insignificant, that after finding himself with a great power is striving to make the best of it and help people that has also been desperate. Shishigami is a fullfiled boy without a set path, that after finding himself with a great power is striving to make the best of it by ending the lives of people he deemed insignificant for fun. In the end, both of these machines are the most human, just in different circumstances and reasons. It feels like it's an analogy on the 2 true aspects of humanity.
Usually I hate these types of videos. But you do it differently and make it enjoyable. Most recap RUclipsrs use a weird freaking AI voice and jont but these feel refreshing and with character. Great work
This series is so gratifying to watch, for both people who hate society [and/or want it to fall apart/want humanity to die/want to be above the law] and people who find purpose in protecting others
I wouldn't get too self-righteous with yourself, some people think wiping out society would be best to save humanity but even amongst those people killing indiscriminately is considered subhuman just goes to prove not everyone can handle power
@@Biodeamon >I wouldn’t… i was just referring to how the main antagonist ended up wanting to kill basically everyone in the country so that he’d no longer be pursued, while the main protag’s sole goal was to ensure the health and wellbeing of everyone he could help
Watched the this with my wife when she was pregnant, that fight scene had frogs in my throat when the old man daughter was on the phone dying. The anime doesn't get the praise it deserves. I know many was put off by the CG but it was really good.
This anime is so interesting they really were both opposites but yet the same in the end. Ultimately the one who was cold had learned to become human again from the one who never lost his own humanity out of fear of becoming cold. Honestly one of the coolest and well written concepts I’ve seen in a while.
Because after he turned for good all the people he killed came back to life right?? Also they probably thought his good actions were the Old man's miracles
@@joaquingamarra3248 still killing unarmed civilians that could have been hostages was the wrong move. it just pissed him off. if anything get a phycologist to try and reason with the super being first.
@@count-countess8464 How do the police know they are unarmed civilians ? The dude looks just like a unarmed civilian too, yet can instantly kill people supernaturally. Given the relation between him and them, at best they are willingly harboring a serial killer/terrorist with superpowers, at worst they could be just like him. They dont know he is invincible yet, but that doesnt make it any better.
@@count-countess8464 it'd be stupid to assume hostages could freely walk about their own home. Also they got caught in the cross fire. It's implied their deaths weren't really intended. Also this dude had already killed hundreds by that time. It'd be unreasonable to assume he could be talked down
That's because the police are doing their jobs. Just because the murderer suddenly had a change of heart due to a moment of personal experience the police are notified about that? "Ok folks he's good now, we'll just come talk to him peacefully instead of guns blazing"
Is it bad that I don’t feel bad for the internet trolls? You have to be really sick to make fun of a mother who dies by suicide due to shame/guilt. Also, WHAT AN ENDING!! 😳
That's kind of the point I suppose. Killing people is wrong, but the internet trolls have crossed way too many lines. Just enough to make the line between heartless murder and justified selfdefense a blur.
@@crep1544 Trolls are often like that due to their own lives not being the best, and also just being anonymous online. I doubt a lot of them are as bad irl. But Internet can bring out the worst in people
You can think they're dicks, but saying someone deserves to be murdered for being a pissant is a little extreme, and certainly puts you in a similar category.
@@GenericProtagonist7 Exactly, it's the same kind of work. I'd say a lot of trolls online are mostly just normal people with lots of frustration irl, so they use the anonymity online to vent some of the frustration on other anonymous people online. I doubt a lot of them are actually happy when people are hurt, it's just a way to went that frustration.
This was probably one of the best animes I have ever watched. So different to everything else, very mature, serious, emotional and doesn’t overstays it’s welcome. A short one, but with just enough episodes. A fantastic show nonetheless. Heck, we need more sci-fi like this!
The biggest plot twist I was hoping for would’ve been at the end the dog opens it’s doggy body and you get to see that it was made into a machine too 😂
I binge watched the full series and I want to say I cannot recommend it enough, I cried when ichiro called ando and it ended with them both agreeing "I'll see you tomorrow" right before ichiro self detonated
This was the only show I've ever watched within a day, besides paranoia agent. (You should do that one too!) It's an amazing manga and anime, and Hiroya Oku is like a genius to me. Gantz and Inuyashiki are some of the best things I've ever experienced.
the only scene that made me wish i would run into those Aliens, is when he swiped his finger on the ATM screen and it gave him all the money he wanted , i was sold at this moment
I would get the powers just tp be an absolute troll by hoibg to every tv shop and changing it to random hentai scenes cause i can And hoing around accessing there smaryphone and type the 8===> The dream of beccomming the absolute troll is now a choice with those powers
damn the emotional rollercoster this was. It went from: idk what to do, save vs kill people, lets save people, betrayal, idk what i am, to self-sacrifice.
So after your first recap on this I looked up the anime and have begun watching it, and all I'm saying is it's definitely worth watching Edit: I finished. I cannot state this enough, it is worth the watch
I’m peeved at myself for watching this vid, it has me choked up as you joked through it and if I would have watched the show I probably wouldn’t have made it through with a dry eye.
Your first part got me to read the manga, It’ a shame that they couldn’t add the Yakuza bit, but yet again it was a lot. Thanks for introducing me to a legit golden series. (Fuck your Amazon for blocking off part 9/10 >:( )
The part where where Inuyashiki ends up killing a lot of Yakuza after trying to save a guy’s girlfriend who was stolen by them? It was in the anime iirc
@@streetgamer3452 he didn't kill them, he just blinded and paralyzed them all This events were probably left out of the video because the whole sexual abuse situation was too heavy
@@Bragemaster It does matter. He was an average human at one point before the aliens injured him and overdid the healing. Thats like if you killed 469 people 5 years ago "out of anger" but now it's OK. I think the only reason the meteor came was because he was senselessly killing.
Bro i almost cried at the end and i didn't even watch the whole thing. I never thought anime would hit me this hard. Thanks for the video i wouldn't have found about this amazing anime ❤️
This double part was amazing. Really makes me want to watch the anime. At the same time though I appreciate how you can relate the important information and the subtle morals with a quick recap of the anime itself. I think your channel is a great idea and you execute it well. Thank you for the material and I look forward to what is to come!
This is interesting, how the juxtaposition between Ichiro and Shishigami works. Ichiro had a family that had forgotten about him despite trying his hardest to provide the best for them, had spent his entire life working and serving other and his life was running very short due to cancer and despite all of that, he never gave up the kindness in his soul; Shishigami had a family, a friend and girl that loved him, he had spent his life just studying and hanging out and had a very long life ahead of him, yet he let the darkness taint and consume his heart. *Gratitude vs. Ingratitude towards life.* I can understand this story now, bonkers as the premise is. I have held up the belief for the longest time that _evil is the consequence of fear_ and that _good is_ the desire to the return of the primordial state of existence before human consciousness created fear _and the bravery to fight for it;_ As only man can consciously process fear and thus use their will to act upon it, creating evil as a consequence. This was a story between the most basic and pure paragons of what good and evil represent, _bravery and cowardice;_ hero vs. villain. As the villain was defeated and realized his efforts to change the natural order of the All-Consciousness will were rendered futile thanks to the hero, _the hero in the end put down his sword, and gave up the fight, for his quest was over._ While the villain was filled with resentment and let his fear increase the demands to release his anger, the hero held no grudges and let his bracery allow the villain to redeem himself, which was the only demand the hero had from the start. *Thanks for reading.* _Yes, I am writing a book on my philosophical theories, that's why themes like thse make me burst up in words, lolz._
I love how Shishigami voice is hilarious and normal even when hes going like “bang bang bang” and its kinda wholesome to hear but once you know wht happened its nit wholeomse at all
Ahh yes, “caught in the crossfire” by which you mean, targeted first for no apparent reason. The hit squad rolls in, and finds both of them just chilling, and they kill them to attempt to prevent them from alerting him. But she let out a scream before they even opened fire, which means they really only killed her and her grandma, for the hell of it.
they were totally not harboring a genocidal mass murderer right? and the hit squad totally knows they are not on one side and could also have the same powers ect ect
@@hzhang1228 A Genocidal Mass Murderer might have been on location, but they weren’t in a situation which garnered the murder of an old lady and some girl. they didn’t just bust in and gun them down as a precaution, they busted in, secured them, as in they had them at their mercy, allowing them to confirm that they are just regular ass people, and then after a solid minute, they gunned them down. She had time to cry out, and that says it all, if they had gone in and shot them in a blitz assault, it would have made more sense, but they didn’t they captured them, cleared the downstairs area, and then, considering she had time to cry out, they probably had to say out loud that they were going to kill these two people. They had them at gunpoint, and she didn’t scream immediately, she only screams when they are about to shoot her, which is why her scream is cut off, by gunfire. It was an unnecessary and conscious decision to kill her and her grandmother, it happens often in warfare, civilians being captured for whatever reason, suspected of harbouring enemy soldiers or weapons etc etc, and when given time, and the option, to prove them innocent, militaries around the world simply opt to kill them anyways, even if they have definitive proof the civilians are harmless, because it’s easier to kill them than have them live as examples of their mistreatment of people. It’s a similar scenario here, they have the two civilians secured, they’ve been neutralized in that they cannot cause any harm, but instead of being taken into custody, or evacuated, or any other non lethal means, they are gunned down simply because it is easier. The crazy machine man might have been messed up mentally, but hopefully he exterminated all of the law enforcement there who had just as little regard for human life as he did, because he never claimed to be the good guy while slaughtering people, but they definitely did. Humanity is bad in fact and fiction, regard for sentient life should be far higher, some people are messed up a little, like our murder machine guy here, he needed to be eliminated, but lowering ones own regard for life in order to do so is no better. If people can kill the elderly and youth so easily, with no consequences, why should we even bother having law enforcement? Maybe I’m just grumpy, but there was absolutely no reason for them to die, I’d have been much less uppity about it if they’d gone down because it was a fast guns blazing raid. In fact, if they were planning to kill everyone inside anyways, they could and should have just blown up the whole building.
@@hzhang1228 The fact that even you call them a "hit squad" basically shows that the police in that scene are clearly in the wrong even if Shishigami's actions are still worse. While I'll give you that the hit squad didn't know if Shion and/or her grandmother had the same powers at all, the fact that it doesn't seem like they even *tried* to detain them first like they did Shishigami is why the police are definitely the villains too in that scene, especially since Shishigami hadn't killed any police at that point. Hell, for all they knew, Shion and her grandmother were hostages, and she cried out his name in panic as an understandably frightened teenage girl might. Speaking of hostages, the police enacting their too common "shoot first, ask questions never" policy is also dumb here on top of its utter immorality. Even if Shion and her grandmother were sympathetic to Shishigami, then you take *them* as hostages (to be arrested afterwards for their crimes) and at least *attempt* to use their safety as a bargaining chip against the super strong, super murderous guy that had just lost his mother a couple of months back. I know police worldwide are generally fucking terrible at de-escalation, but I don't see the benefit of killing two visibly unarmed people an extremely dangerous guy _may_ care about *after* you already know he's been alerted unless your goal is to piss him off and give him even more reason to kill (you). It just seems stupidly short-sighted, but I suppose that's unfortunately realistic (especially given the sickening amount of people who act like summary execution by police for [minor] crimes is somehow warranted even when the person in question is visibly unarmed and not an active threat).
@@lordwoods8631 you are telling me the guys who stood no chance against the alien weapon were scientists who knew all about the killing machine, all the info on who he is, how to identify who are machines and who are not in the blink of an eye during an high stakes mission yet all died in the blink of an eye? your judgement considers nothing of the position of the agents and only your prejudice. all of these agents behind the mask are individuals with different backgrounds and family, yet you are able to without even knowing their names act as judge jury and executioner and conclude they as a single entity have no respect for life? they have placed their own lives in risk to be there in the first place. and judging by their performance have zero intel on what they are up against. that is the empirical evidence. you say they are able to perform tests in the heat of the mission to id that the girl and the old lady is not also weaponized while knowing nothing about the actual danger, is that shown in the anime or an assumption? (i haven't seen the anime) but lets say they have a gadget to id the girl and lady are not weaponized how do they know they are also not able to aid or control the weapon in any way? there is already evidence that they are aiding the weapon you are telling me in the time eclipsed they are able to have a zoom meeting with a prosecutor and judge to determine the innocence of the girl and grandma? (and didn't the girl already know what he has done at this point? making her having equally less regard for human lives?) the known evidence is that the agents have little to no knowledge on what they are dealing with. that the target is extremely dangerous. the target is hiding with other likely accomplices. with these known evidence we can logically assume that the team while knowing zero details of the weapon knows this is a life risking mission. the fact that they are throwing their life on the front lines already contradicts the claim that they hold no regard for human lives unless that includes their own lives. we can also logically assume that if they have enough evidence to decide that it was not an arrest mission but a kill mission the level of danger and stakes involved does not leave room for talks, meaning they lack enough control of the situation to surround the house and ask the person to surrender. which means if they divert resource to try and arrest the two accomplice the mission would be jeopardized and the lives of the agents would be put under risk in a situation that is not under their control. the best liberal approach would be calling out for his surrender, and after the ensuing firefight and countless lives lost put him in prison with first world treatment of 3 meals a day, heating and cooling along with medical. a life the vast majority of the world can not afford working an honest job full time. unfortunately (sarcasm) the governing bodies do not yet operate on feelings but the greater good. and the lives of the countless lost, and would lose and the lives of the agents are put first before the genocidal guy and his likely accomplices. sure there will always be bleeding hearts that wish the agents to be killed and march on the streets for criminals. ideological BS usually festers during a civilization's decline, but over the long run they are few and far in between and thus civilizations remain.
I like how Shishigami is your anime psyco killer on surface, but written so good that he becomes more than this stereotype. He's a teenager nihilist, who's got superpowers and using them edgy and sadistic way, but everytime as soon as he getting something to hold on, to gave him humanity like saving his mother on a brink of a death or getting girlfriend he's turning to be good. He could be a good person if he had something giving more meaning to his existance. It's like a theme of this anime - what makes us feel human is making us human.
I remember watching the first episode back at launch and being immediately put off by the painfully shoddy CG work on the 3D models used for their robot parts. Guess I missed out on a gem.
I remember coming across this anime years ago because of clips on RUclips. The algorithm blessed me that day. I binged the whole thing start to finish. Beautiful in every way. Much love for covering such a classic and making it known to a broader audience! 💛
Or probably a test by the aliens to see what happens if 2 people one that saves people to feel humman and the other to kill Will it bwcome s all out esr agaibst both of them the end of the world And the meteor is the finnal test cause why would it not take 2 of them tp destroy it exactly 2 They probably wanted to see if they will set therr difference assidr and sacrifice themselves fot there home planet
Wdym too advanced to normally heal a human? Tell how would you normally heal a human that got hit by a giant space craft going at god knows what speed. Did you even watch the first episode? Stated that they hit 2 intelligent life form and have to heal them but only carried planetary weapons on them. They just agreed that it not their problem and left before space cop or what ever catches them.
Uh dude, even average humans can’t “normally” heal people who where hit by a god dang space craft. The aliens also said they only had weapons on their ship and used those because they didn’t care about the ramifications. Also, there is no reason to believe they sent the meteor at all.
If only Ando (I think thats how you spell it) had convinced him to be good from the start when he starting causing mass car accidents (because that was a MASSIVE red flag) all it would have taken would be for him to ask what he was gonna do with his powers, and upon founding out he was gonna kill people, convince him not to. Boom mass suffering avoided, they both would have been fully operational to take out the meteor, (heading rapidly between earth and the meteor to refill) and MAYBE have destroyed it before it hit earth without having to self destruct.
@@iwuanadie1058 1. Maybe it’s like irl, where the more fuel you carry, the more fuel you also consume to carry it and the container… or smth, anno 2. Maybe the meteor was just that big, there’s no indication the visuals of the simulations were to scale

Thank you for this and props to you for being able to recap this so beautifully ngl made me tear up at a few parts and am definitely going to watch this when i have the opportunity. Brilliantly done tho and i look forward to the next vid please keep up the incredible work :)
This anime just showed for me the physiological drama of realizing your not human and you can feel your not you like before like your souls missing and then to fill that void unfortunately one of them could only recall seeing death as a way to feel life. And one can only felt human when he saved a life. The anime gave you a perspective on how life can suddenly end and how thinks are always never really in control but even in the worst you should try and do your best for yourself and others and try not to fall into the darkness in everyone or you'll find yourself lost to it. Only every knowing the ugly and sad

Okay now I'm wondering how many astronauts just see crazy ass weird shit in space and are like "Yeah I'm just gonna keep this to myself..."
I'm honestly tearing up at that ending. That was so depressing
Nevermind I'm full on crying now XD
Yeah I was tearing up at a few parts. Can he do something silly like prison school or Chios School road next time?
It’s sad that his friend loosing respect for him and calling him out finally made him realize..even his mother couldn’t stop him…
I remember seeing this years back when I was still pretty young, the blood and killing kind of scarred me. But looking back at it through this recap, I really enjoy this anime. The end is just so beautiful and sad.
yeah i remember it being more gruesome than other animes i have seen when i first watched it lol
What's the anime called?
@@garymutunga3187 inuyashiki
My older brother made me watch it with him when I was 10, it made me cry for weeks
It only came out in 2017 lol, people talk about it like it came out back in the 1980s lol
I barely ever cry at shows and stuff but wow, even just from this recap I’m on the verge of tears
Damn, that was actually really good. Ending had me tearing up a bit. Also, despite his actions, I didn't really hate Shishigami and could even level with him some times. You know a show is good when it can create nuances with its heroes and villains.
"I didn't really hate Shishigami" why?
@@jacobellinger8027 it's a well developed character that's it
@@jacobellinger8027 just because a character is evil doesn't mean we have to hate it
Man, One Piece is crazy good this week!
Oh yeah, this dude's killed thousands of people for no particular reason, except to kill, but y'know! He's alright, I can level with him. Ok.
I get he's an onion, but he's an onion you hate. No other option. It's like, "Oh I get Hitler. I can level with him." No! No.
I enjoyed the way this was narrated. It made the anime tragic and sincere in the right places. The part "there are 4 more episodes, it's about to get dark" was delivered perfectly.
Both of the machines are very relatable and humane - Ichirou is a desperate man and sees himself as insignificant, that after finding himself with a great power is striving to make the best of it and help people that has also been desperate. Shishigami is a fullfiled boy without a set path, that after finding himself with a great power is striving to make the best of it by ending the lives of people he deemed insignificant for fun. In the end, both of these machines are the most human, just in different circumstances and reasons. It feels like it's an analogy on the 2 true aspects of humanity.
Goofy ahh 💀
*the duality of man* in a nutshell
at the end of the day both saves the world
I don’t think a sociopath who murdered a baby in a bathtub for the kicks can ever be described as most human.
How Shishigami relatable? are you sick?
I remember reading the manga, really well written, characters with real depth. So refreshing
Woah good timing litterally just finished the first one
Me two 😂
Me to

same
Dude same!
Usually I hate these types of videos. But you do it differently and make it enjoyable. Most recap RUclipsrs use a weird freaking AI voice and jont but these feel refreshing and with character. Great work
This series is so gratifying to watch, for both people who hate society [and/or want it to fall apart/want humanity to die/want to be above the law] and people who find purpose in protecting others
I wouldn't get too self-righteous with yourself, some people think wiping out society would be best to save humanity
but even amongst those people killing indiscriminately is considered subhuman
just goes to prove not everyone can handle power
@@Biodeamon vote for me in 2024 and I'll show you how to handle power
@@Biodeamon >I wouldn’t…
i was just referring to how the main antagonist ended up wanting to kill basically everyone in the country so that he’d no longer be pursued, while the main protag’s sole goal was to ensure the health and wellbeing of everyone he could help
for soy edgy guys and for cool guys yeh
So basically edge lords
Anyone else tear up when the old man realized his purpose in life?
Watched the this with my wife when she was pregnant, that fight scene had frogs in my throat when the old man daughter was on the phone dying. The anime doesn't get the praise it deserves. I know many was put off by the CG but it was really good.
"I'm the cyborg murdering maniac in the news. Got some water? "
Women: " I can change him."
This anime is so interesting they really were both opposites but yet the same in the end. Ultimately the one who was cold had learned to become human again from the one who never lost his own humanity out of fear of becoming cold. Honestly one of the coolest and well written concepts I’ve seen in a while.
Just getting a recap had me tear up. That's tough man.
I love how the main murderer begins to turn for good and the moment he does
COPS : LET'S FUCKING GET THEM
Because after he turned for good all the people he killed came back to life right??
Also they probably thought his good actions were the Old man's miracles
@@joaquingamarra3248 still killing unarmed civilians that could have been hostages was the wrong move. it just pissed him off. if anything get a phycologist to try and reason with the super being first.
@@count-countess8464 How do the police know they are unarmed civilians ? The dude looks just like a unarmed civilian too, yet can instantly kill people supernaturally. Given the relation between him and them, at best they are willingly harboring a serial killer/terrorist with superpowers, at worst they could be just like him. They dont know he is invincible yet, but that doesnt make it any better.
@@count-countess8464 it'd be stupid to assume hostages could freely walk about their own home. Also they got caught in the cross fire. It's implied their deaths weren't really intended. Also this dude had already killed hundreds by that time. It'd be unreasonable to assume he could be talked down
That's because the police are doing their jobs. Just because the murderer suddenly had a change of heart due to a moment of personal experience the police are notified about that? "Ok folks he's good now, we'll just come talk to him peacefully instead of guns blazing"
"they would cry for you buddy" hey hey whoah, who said you could make me feel sadder than the ending already did.
Is it bad that I don’t feel bad for the internet trolls? You have to be really sick to make fun of a mother who dies by suicide due to shame/guilt. Also, WHAT AN ENDING!! 😳
That's kind of the point I suppose. Killing people is wrong, but the internet trolls have crossed way too many lines. Just enough to make the line between heartless murder and justified selfdefense a blur.
@@crep1544 Trolls are often like that due to their own lives not being the best, and also just being anonymous online. I doubt a lot of them are as bad irl. But Internet can bring out the worst in people
Them and the media were guilty af of murder
You can think they're dicks, but saying someone deserves to be murdered for being a pissant is a little extreme, and certainly puts you in a similar category.
@@GenericProtagonist7 Exactly, it's the same kind of work. I'd say a lot of trolls online are mostly just normal people with lots of frustration irl, so they use the anonymity online to vent some of the frustration on other anonymous people online. I doubt a lot of them are actually happy when people are hurt, it's just a way to went that frustration.
Dude… I was not expecting this ending after clicking on a random video of an old man robot. What a story!
Damn... he died a true hero. This was such a breath of fresh air to discover, what a beautiful little series
This was probably one of the best animes I have ever watched. So different to everything else, very mature, serious, emotional and doesn’t overstays it’s welcome. A short one, but with just enough episodes. A fantastic show nonetheless.
Heck, we need more sci-fi like this!
The cgi was a bit derpy but I absolutely adored inuyashiki
The biggest plot twist I was hoping for would’ve been at the end the dog opens it’s doggy body and you get to see that it was made into a machine too 😂
"They would actually cry for you buddy" Thank you for saying that man.
I binge watched the full series and I want to say I cannot recommend it enough, I cried when ichiro called ando and it ended with them both agreeing "I'll see you tomorrow" right before ichiro self detonated
this protag is absolutely S-tier
S+ imo, what a good man
ah, yes, Senior tier
This was the only show I've ever watched within a day, besides paranoia agent. (You should do that one too!)
It's an amazing manga and anime, and Hiroya Oku is like a genius to me. Gantz and Inuyashiki are some of the best things I've ever experienced.
I really lucked out with that timing. Just found the channel and just finished part 1 and boom this pops up. Keep it up dude!
Same
Same!
Same!
Literally same. I watched part 1 last night, wanted to watch the rest and was sad I had to wait
I watched half of part 1 and decided to watch the show. It was well worth it
8:47 “He aims his blicky at the camera in his hand” 😂😂😭 fucking killed me
the only scene that made me wish i would run into those Aliens, is when he swiped his finger on the ATM screen and it gave him all the money he wanted , i was sold at this moment
i love money
who doesn't
Like having the cure for every illness ever wouldnt make you the richest person in the world
I would get the powers just tp be an absolute troll by hoibg to every tv shop and changing it to random hentai scenes cause i can
And hoing around accessing there smaryphone and type the 8===>
The dream of beccomming the absolute troll is now a choice with those powers
@@oneosix106decena that's all you would do? Something tells me you don't have much in the way of aspirations.
damn the emotional rollercoster this was. It went from: idk what to do, save vs kill people, lets save people, betrayal, idk what i am, to self-sacrifice.
So after your first recap on this I looked up the anime and have begun watching it, and all I'm saying is it's definitely worth watching
Edit: I finished.
I cannot state this enough, it is worth the watch
What’s its called
@@Elpthz Name is in the description.
What are your watching it on its not available on prime for me?
I mean, it has the same art style as Gantz
I can’t find it on any streaming site
I’m peeved at myself for watching this vid, it has me choked up as you joked through it and if I would have watched the show I probably wouldn’t have made it through with a dry eye.
I fr shed a tear and this was just a recap. Imagine all the character development and the time spent watching this just to see him die, damn 😔😔😔
I should not be crying this hard on a recap ending. Great job yo! Seriously these two videos were awesome
I literally just finished watching part 1 less than a minute later this is posted
I subbed cuz of part 1 like 40 mins ago
Same
Your first part got me to read the manga, It’ a shame that they couldn’t add the Yakuza bit, but yet again it was a lot. Thanks for introducing me to a legit golden series.
(Fuck your Amazon for blocking off part 9/10
>:( )
The part where where Inuyashiki ends up killing a lot of Yakuza after trying to save a guy’s girlfriend who was stolen by them? It was in the anime iirc
wait it was? Idfk what version I watched then
@@streetgamer3452 he didn't kill them, he just blinded and paralyzed them all
This events were probably left out of the video because the whole sexual abuse situation was too heavy

But he save billions

But ended up having recognition from others
- Old man

To be fair he WAS a murderer

Thats like if you killed 469 people 5 years ago "out of anger" but now it's OK.

@@GlobalEl1te That is a fair point
Hey thanks for the quick 40 minute recap that tore my heart out, seriously. Never saw the show but even this recap was sad
"No one will believe what you saw"
LOL
Bro i almost cried at the end and i didn't even watch the whole thing. I never thought anime would hit me this hard. Thanks for the video i wouldn't have found about this amazing anime ❤️
This double part was amazing. Really makes me want to watch the anime. At the same time though I appreciate how you can relate the important information and the subtle morals with a quick recap of the anime itself. I think your channel is a great idea and you execute it well. Thank you for the material and I look forward to what is to come!
This is interesting, how the juxtaposition between Ichiro and Shishigami works. Ichiro had a family that had forgotten about him despite trying his hardest to provide the best for them, had spent his entire life working and serving other and his life was running very short due to cancer and despite all of that, he never gave up the kindness in his soul; Shishigami had a family, a friend and girl that loved him, he had spent his life just studying and hanging out and had a very long life ahead of him, yet he let the darkness taint and consume his heart. *Gratitude vs. Ingratitude towards life.*
I can understand this story now, bonkers as the premise is. I have held up the belief for the longest time that _evil is the consequence of fear_ and that _good is_ the desire to the return of the primordial state of existence before human consciousness created fear _and the bravery to fight for it;_ As only man can consciously process fear and thus use their will to act upon it, creating evil as a consequence.
This was a story between the most basic and pure paragons of what good and evil represent, _bravery and cowardice;_ hero vs. villain. As the villain was defeated and realized his efforts to change the natural order of the All-Consciousness will were rendered futile thanks to the hero, _the hero in the end put down his sword, and gave up the fight, for his quest was over._
While the villain was filled with resentment and let his fear increase the demands to release his anger, the hero held no grudges and let his bracery allow the villain to redeem himself, which was the only demand the hero had from the start.
*Thanks for reading.* _Yes, I am writing a book on my philosophical theories, that's why themes like thse make me burst up in words, lolz._
Interesting comment
I love how Shishigami voice is hilarious and normal even when hes going like “bang bang bang” and its kinda wholesome to hear but once you know wht happened its nit wholeomse at all
I forgot about this series. It was so good. Thanks so much for reminding me about it.
Brooooooo I watched this anime the weeks during release and it changed peoples souls. Such a good moral to the story. I remember crying to this anime!
"and it conveniently begins to rain." loving your recaps. this story is pretty epic. thanks for sharing!
Ahh yes, “caught in the crossfire” by which you mean, targeted first for no apparent reason. The hit squad rolls in, and finds both of them just chilling, and they kill them to attempt to prevent them from alerting him. But she let out a scream before they even opened fire, which means they really only killed her and her grandma, for the hell of it.
they were totally not harboring a genocidal mass murderer right? and the hit squad totally knows they are not on one side and could also have the same powers ect ect
@@hzhang1228 A Genocidal Mass Murderer might have been on location, but they weren’t in a situation which garnered the murder of an old lady and some girl. they didn’t just bust in and gun them down as a precaution, they busted in, secured them, as in they had them at their mercy, allowing them to confirm that they are just regular ass people, and then after a solid minute, they gunned them down. She had time to cry out, and that says it all, if they had gone in and shot them in a blitz assault, it would have made more sense, but they didn’t they captured them, cleared the downstairs area, and then, considering she had time to cry out, they probably had to say out loud that they were going to kill these two people. They had them at gunpoint, and she didn’t scream immediately, she only screams when they are about to shoot her, which is why her scream is cut off, by gunfire. It was an unnecessary and conscious decision to kill her and her grandmother, it happens often in warfare, civilians being captured for whatever reason, suspected of harbouring enemy soldiers or weapons etc etc, and when given time, and the option, to prove them innocent, militaries around the world simply opt to kill them anyways, even if they have definitive proof the civilians are harmless, because it’s easier to kill them than have them live as examples of their mistreatment of people. It’s a similar scenario here, they have the two civilians secured, they’ve been neutralized in that they cannot cause any harm, but instead of being taken into custody, or evacuated, or any other non lethal means, they are gunned down simply because it is easier. The crazy machine man might have been messed up mentally, but hopefully he exterminated all of the law enforcement there who had just as little regard for human life as he did, because he never claimed to be the good guy while slaughtering people, but they definitely did. Humanity is bad in fact and fiction, regard for sentient life should be far higher, some people are messed up a little, like our murder machine guy here, he needed to be eliminated, but lowering ones own regard for life in order to do so is no better. If people can kill the elderly and youth so easily, with no consequences, why should we even bother having law enforcement? Maybe I’m just grumpy, but there was absolutely no reason for them to die, I’d have been much less uppity about it if they’d gone down because it was a fast guns blazing raid. In fact, if they were planning to kill everyone inside anyways, they could and should have just blown up the whole building.
@@hzhang1228 The fact that even you call them a "hit squad" basically shows that the police in that scene are clearly in the wrong even if Shishigami's actions are still worse. While I'll give you that the hit squad didn't know if Shion and/or her grandmother had the same powers at all, the fact that it doesn't seem like they even *tried* to detain them first like they did Shishigami is why the police are definitely the villains too in that scene, especially since Shishigami hadn't killed any police at that point. Hell, for all they knew, Shion and her grandmother were hostages, and she cried out his name in panic as an understandably frightened teenage girl might.
Speaking of hostages, the police enacting their too common "shoot first, ask questions never" policy is also dumb here on top of its utter immorality. Even if Shion and her grandmother were sympathetic to Shishigami, then you take *them* as hostages (to be arrested afterwards for their crimes) and at least *attempt* to use their safety as a bargaining chip against the super strong, super murderous guy that had just lost his mother a couple of months back. I know police worldwide are generally fucking terrible at de-escalation, but I don't see the benefit of killing two visibly unarmed people an extremely dangerous guy _may_ care about *after* you already know he's been alerted unless your goal is to piss him off and give him even more reason to kill (you). It just seems stupidly short-sighted, but I suppose that's unfortunately realistic (especially given the sickening amount of people who act like summary execution by police for [minor] crimes is somehow warranted even when the person in question is visibly unarmed and not an active threat).
@@lordwoods8631 you are telling me the guys who stood no chance against the alien weapon were scientists who knew all about the killing machine, all the info on who he is, how to identify who are machines and who are not in the blink of an eye during an high stakes mission yet all died in the blink of an eye? your judgement considers nothing of the position of the agents and only your prejudice. all of these agents behind the mask are individuals with different backgrounds and family, yet you are able to without even knowing their names act as judge jury and executioner and conclude they as a single entity have no respect for life? they have placed their own lives in risk to be there in the first place. and judging by their performance have zero intel on what they are up against. that is the empirical evidence. you say they are able to perform tests in the heat of the mission to id that the girl and the old lady is not also weaponized while knowing nothing about the actual danger, is that shown in the anime or an assumption? (i haven't seen the anime) but lets say they have a gadget to id the girl and lady are not weaponized how do they know they are also not able to aid or control the weapon in any way? there is already evidence that they are aiding the weapon you are telling me in the time eclipsed they are able to have a zoom meeting with a prosecutor and judge to determine the innocence of the girl and grandma? (and didn't the girl already know what he has done at this point? making her having equally less regard for human lives?) the known evidence is that the agents have little to no knowledge on what they are dealing with. that the target is extremely dangerous. the target is hiding with other likely accomplices. with these known evidence we can logically assume that the team while knowing zero details of the weapon knows this is a life risking mission. the fact that they are throwing their life on the front lines already contradicts the claim that they hold no regard for human lives unless that includes their own lives. we can also logically assume that if they have enough evidence to decide that it was not an arrest mission but a kill mission the level of danger and stakes involved does not leave room for talks, meaning they lack enough control of the situation to surround the house and ask the person to surrender. which means if they divert resource to try and arrest the two accomplice the mission would be jeopardized and the lives of the agents would be put under risk in a situation that is not under their control. the best liberal approach would be calling out for his surrender, and after the ensuing firefight and countless lives lost put him in prison with first world treatment of 3 meals a day, heating and cooling along with medical. a life the vast majority of the world can not afford working an honest job full time. unfortunately (sarcasm) the governing bodies do not yet operate on feelings but the greater good. and the lives of the countless lost, and would lose and the lives of the agents are put first before the genocidal guy and his likely accomplices. sure there will always be bleeding hearts that wish the agents to be killed and march on the streets for criminals. ideological BS usually festers during a civilization's decline, but over the long run they are few and far in between and thus civilizations remain.
@@MusicoftheDamned read my previous reply
I like how Shishigami is your anime psyco killer on surface, but written so good that he becomes more than this stereotype. He's a teenager nihilist, who's got superpowers and using them edgy and sadistic way, but everytime as soon as he getting something to hold on, to gave him humanity like saving his mother on a brink of a death or getting girlfriend he's turning to be good. He could be a good person if he had something giving more meaning to his existance. It's like a theme of this anime - what makes us feel human is making us human.
Brilliant
The scene between Ichiro and Mari when she was dead was so powerful I seriously recommend watching these last few episodes on stremio or something
I remember watching the first episode back at launch and being immediately put off by the painfully shoddy CG work on the 3D models used for their robot parts. Guess I missed out on a gem.
I remember coming across this anime years ago because of clips on RUclips. The algorithm blessed me that day. I binged the whole thing start to finish. Beautiful in every way. Much love for covering such a classic and making it known to a broader audience! 💛
this is one of my favourite manga I've read. i love the protagonist and antagonist. it's a nice change.
This show is extremely weird but at the same time amazing, would've never seen it if not for these videos, thanks a lot really good videos
This premise is so sweet. I usually don’t like anime but this seems good af.
After seeing your first vid here I went and binged the show and just finished it and honestly its a 9/10. Had me tearing up several times
What a great story. I especially like the part with "they would cry for you buddy" the answer to his question at the start.
The aliens that saved these dudes 100% sent that meteor. They were too advanced to "normally" heal an average human.
Or probably a test by the aliens to see what happens if 2 people one that saves people to feel humman and the other to kill
Will it bwcome s all out esr agaibst both of them the end of the world
And the meteor is the finnal test cause why would it not take 2 of them tp destroy it exactly 2
They probably wanted to see if they will set therr difference assidr and sacrifice themselves fot there home planet
Wdym too advanced to normally heal a human? Tell how would you normally heal a human that got hit by a giant space craft going at god knows what speed. Did you even watch the first episode? Stated that they hit 2 intelligent life form and have to heal them but only carried planetary weapons on them. They just agreed that it not their problem and left before space cop or what ever catches them.
Uh dude, even average humans can’t “normally” heal people who where hit by a god dang space craft. The aliens also said they only had weapons on their ship and used those because they didn’t care about the ramifications. Also, there is no reason to believe they sent the meteor at all.
Man this is an emotional thrill ride. The Gantz posters in homies room is a cute nod too.
Bro this man is making some of the best anime content on RUclips right now
Thank you for doing such a comprehensive and wonderful job of detailing this anime as a review.
I could not convince any friends to watch this a long time ago, and they missed out. Such a great anime.
Watched the first video and instantly binged the manga all day. Instantly top 5, thanks for covering this!
Sad ending but heart-warming.
Dude the ending tho and the answer your question form the beginning they would cry for u got me crying
If only Ando (I think thats how you spell it) had convinced him to be good from the start when he starting causing mass car accidents (because that was a MASSIVE red flag) all it would have taken would be for him to ask what he was gonna do with his powers, and upon founding out he was gonna kill people, convince him not to. Boom mass suffering avoided, they both would have been fully operational to take out the meteor, (heading rapidly between earth and the meteor to refill) and MAYBE have destroyed it before it hit earth without having to self destruct.
But isn't it just like real life? We never know what would happen and just gonna regret it afterwards with 'what ifs'
1. they could've carried massive water tanks
2. what happened with the "power to destroy whole planets" omegalul
@@iwuanadie1058 1. Maybe it’s like irl, where the more fuel you carry, the more fuel you also consume to carry it and the container… or smth, anno

I agree. Those other channels spread like wildfire on RUclips…
The ending makes me really glad you did this recap
Man I remember when this anime came out and waiting a week between episodes was such a paaaaiinnn especially when episodes ended on cliffhangers
Just found this channel and man you got some 100% top tier content. The content feels like it's being made by a seasoned pro but the channel is so new. Keep it up my guy!
Damn you’d think that after a certain point you’d want to be open to talk with the person before sending another firing squad to die for no reason.
no, not reeally.
This was an amazing anime.
As someone similar in age to the old man it was incredibly poignant.
Thank you for getting part 2 out so quickly I was really interested in this story
An amazing and original story. Thank you for summarizing amazing shows that I would not have otherwise watched.
What a wonderful story! It really touched my heartstrings.
Wow that was a rollercoaster of emotions there. Definitely took me on a trip with those vids
Just stumbled across this channel and part 1 earlier and damn, I actually like this lol, I've always wanted to watch more anime but I've always had a hard time getting interested in any, I'm usually into modern settings anyways, thanks for making these! This one in particular hits the feels
Man this got me teary eyed. I really need to watch this anime. That’s some serious character development
Thank you for this and props to you for being able to recap this so beautifully ngl made me tear up at a few parts and am definitely going to watch this when i have the opportunity. Brilliantly done tho and i look forward to the next vid please keep up the incredible work :)

Great story overall, Gantz my top 3 manga of all time. This recap really makes me want to read this and Oku's other works
This old man, deserve a spot in Hall of Heroes.
Fucking love these types of animes where the plot seems like a shit-post but is actually really engaging and wholesome.
That ending hit me hard. Such a great anime
That was actually a really good story.
This anime just showed for me the physiological drama of realizing your not human and you can feel your not you like before like your souls missing and then to fill that void unfortunately one of them could only recall seeing death as a way to feel life. And one can only felt human when he saved a life. The anime gave you a perspective on how life can suddenly end and how thinks are always never really in control but even in the worst you should try and do your best for yourself and others and try not to fall into the darkness in everyone or you'll find yourself lost to it. Only every knowing the ugly and sad
