Doesnt go with the manga at all, it kinda forks off into its own story with the same people anyway i liked this better then the first one, alot more action i think

wow..... a bit confusing with the full score menu and what happens to Kei but then again i haven't read the manga.... the ending is a bit sad and happy at the same time. awsome action/vilonce and gore. loved Nino's acting. loved both movies, but i personally prefer the perfect answer.

the first film lays down a good basis, but the second is the real deal, just like death note. i'm surprised at how my emotions changed so drastically from my first to last glance at the ball. i like how such an out-there kind of plot like this have meaningful messages about life and war. i enjoyed watching matsuyama playing a big guy who's a little scared and ninomiya playing a perv with a strong will. he's so good at playing wackos with big dreams: ryusei no kizuna & ohoku~ overall: <3

Just saw this at the J-pop festival in San Francisco. Decent action movie that is more of a typical action blockbuster than the first movie, since it only had 1 or 2 rounds that was used to make a final story instead of the multiple rounds of the first movie. Good soundtrack by the way to create suspense, only thing is that this movie had way to many of those sudden suspense-buildups where they suddenly cut to a new scene at their peak. I think by the 20 minute mark, there were already 2 or 3 of those. Seriously, I get that this is an action/suspense flick, but please don't go overboard. Another criticism is of the side story concerning the detective. You might have well placed a side plot about Kurono's childhood girlfriend and it would've made more sense. Greatest thing was the visuals.

An enjoyable series - heart-warming and not too sugary. The acting is fine, and the two child actors can certainly act! Somewhat regrettable that Higa Manami doesn't get a role that allows her to demonstrate more depth of her acting skills. I usually hate talking animals, but the dog in the series adds funny moments and can be taken in some scenes as an allegorical counterpoint to human thoughts and actions.

I just saw the first part in subs (better than the dubs) and it was amazing!! Looking for Part 2. And I can't believe Gantz Perfect Answer premiered in Montreal in early August. I was just in Montreal during that time! Why did I find out about this a little too late...
