Hi, I wanted to start Gantz but sadly the manga in my language is out of print and I can only buy it in bulk from someone used.

So i started reading Gantz:E and I am enjoying it a lot! I decided to watch the anime to check out the original and damn... Who the fuck directed this shit? There are so many weird choices, from randomly hearing characters thoughts, sequences of imaginary sex thrown in, low quality pseudo-3D, the world stopping so characters can talk.
And the dialogue is so retarded... They say so much stupid shit, go on on random unprompted rants, and avoid at all cost saying critical pieces of info to other characters.

Now is this just the anime? Cos if Im about to drop 150 euros for 30 volumes Im expecting something better

I imagine this has been asked before, but I cant find much info online. What media is there beyond Misao and Mad father connected to this universe? Is it all there is? There is so much interesting stuff that is left unexplained, and the game developed Sen doesnt seem to have published any more works
