Unfortunately, I have to agree.
Will that never have an end?
There are many points to be explained. Why that infinite tournament?

It'll end when he wants it to. He probably doesn't have a lot of storyline points ironed out. So he's got THIS.
Think about it. He's written himself this far in. He can't just flip a switch that says "ZOTT OVER" and start up a chapter on Mars and Erica like everybody wants.
Way I see it, he doesn't want an abrupt end like last time...he wants to do things his way.
I'm the only one who's learned to live with it, apparently.

I respect your patience. The fact is that this work has seduced me like no other. Even the interlude presented in volumes 8 and 9 was timed efficiently. I will certainly wait for the dénouement , but you must agree that ZOTT is nervelessness (although I admit that the recent phase have brought interesting characters).
And remember that we still want to know about Gerda as well.

I agree with all your points.
I just said the tournament is taking too long. It has consumed volumes 10, 11 and 12, and it has already entered volume 13. If you consider that when the interlude took place ZOTT was already running…
And remember that just a few days have passed.

I just hope I'll be alive to see the end.

Are you sure Wilde said exactly that? The possessive adjective does not agree with the subject. That mistake is common in colloquial language, but I cannot believe Wilde would have written that.

I think that Gunnm LO will be 20-30 volumes long, so ZOTT is not that long (compared to the Ninja Exam in Naruto for example).

You are right!
No matter what the rule says, even great writers make mistakes.

Nobody disappointed by the fact that there is one vacant spot in the Karate Team, Kishiro screwed up on this one, with all the damn numbers of karateka in the last phase he could have added one more to the team, personnally I was wishing for the Riderman Karate (yes the one with an insect face

).
Otherwise we get the same usual ZOTT stuff, lots of DBZ-like action so meh... (and the Armor-Piercing Karateka falling into such a trap....)

You offend the very manga industry by comparing Kishiro's incredibly detailed and planned action sequences to DBZ's "I'm stronger and to prove it we'll hover in the air gawking at one another for 4 episodes."
And no, I'm not disappointed by the vacancy in the team. Don't forget, the Space Angels started with 4 members.

You guys don't give Naruto the respect it deserves.
Comparing Naruto to the Anime is like comparing Alita to the OVA. The manga is infinitely better.
I still love Gunnm more than Naruto. <3
If you wanna bash a bad anime AND bad manga, Bleach is your friend...

Don't make fun of Bleach. Orihime's titties and Rukia's flatties worth more than all girls in Naruto together.

True, maybe someone (but who could help against something Zekka could not handle???) will appear during the fight to save the day, that would be awesome.
And my sincerest apologies to the manga industry, I do remember now that some of the ZOTT fights were really interesting and beautiful (the one against the Space Cult was very insightful) but since Zekka appeared they are becoming... odd. Where is the fighting spirit, the metaphysic in this freak show

(though I liked the 'karate war')

you sick little pervert
anyway.. I like very much Zekka's urge of destruction.. it gives somekind of diffrent spirit to manga and shows another form of human nature - carnage..

yay so there is no Kamui to poke, the battle must begin! I want to see the powe of Crustaceus Karateka and Zekka using full power (and BTW Sechs learning from him)
but hell Yeah

Ori, Rukia & Yori will overweight 200% girls in Naruto. I'm not forgetting her, she just was a way too heavy for female ninjas.
And also, Hinata's good, but not good enough. Even Chrona from Soul Eater have twice power than Hinata, being #7B68EE-hair-colored-yandere. Just because she's psycho.
