@@themodfather9382 jeez dude this is a 7 year old comment, been a hot minute sense I read the manga. Basically a few characters reach 100 points and redeem them to bring some people back to life. Nishi is pretty successful in the new lineup, using his 100 points to get unique weapons. That’s all I remember lol

[@CoolDevicesXxm4]

The cool thing about Nishi is he's so twisted and walks around acting like he's got a total godmode cheat going on but he's just as human as anyone else. He's just damaged, and turning the scar tissue into a hardened exterior. He's a failure himself for letting his pain turn him into a heartless bastard, but there's truth in his prognosis of the other characters. His ultimate flaw is forgetting that humans are humans and we all just wanna live. Disfunctionally functional characters ftw.

[@ginkomushi7950]

Nishi is amazing! and the dub for him rocks!

[@limeyfigdet7460]

I absolutely love what Nishi tells the Grandma and the brat. So. On. Point about people who spoil kids. He's wrong about Kato, though. It's not hypocrisy to simply not be too absurdly idealistic to refuse to resort to violence when necessary. When people say stuff like, "Lets save everyone" it basically goes without saying that that mostly means innocents and people who aren't a danger to the group.

[@damxcv]

Technically it's hypocrisy, everyone means everyone, Kato didn't specify which type of people he wants to save but nishi is pessimistic and Kato is too optimistic so nishi is going to roast him for that

[@limeyfigdet7460]

@@damxcv Yeah, technically.

[@SoulCastleFilms]

Does anyone else notice how Nishi, being a nihilist, happens to have a similar sounding name to Nietzche, the Father of Nihilism?

cool. nihiilsm has nothing to do with pointless negativity tho

[@RaijinHanshi]

Nishi maybe cold in his speech there, but he is indeed right. If you are current in the manga you can see that these assholes wouldn't even survive, especially that annoying grandmother and that kid. Gantz rules!

[@ketienne1021]

One of the very few dub over sub anime, simply because of this very scene. My favorite non combat anime scene ever.
