Does anyone feel or know if there is one (a missing page) in this release... Between 4-5 pages into this chapter minus cover (GANTZ-v03c29p115 and GANTZ-v03c29p116), it seems to be a fairly large gap and to me feels like i've missed out a page. Checked on lurk and it appears to have this, so it's probably not missing a page. Just wanted to be sure.

I took a second look and although there does appear to be a gap (the attacker going from slammed into the ground to punching the father in the face), I'm fairly sure there isn't. If you look at the official contents page (#4) in chapter 23 it says that chapter 29 should start on page 111 and chapter 30 should start on page 129, thus chapter 29 should end on page 128 and be 18 pages long (which it is).

cool thanks. I did check out Omanga's text scripts and it seems to be all there. Thanks.

Honestly I wouldn't put it past him to do something like that, but on purpose. You know like maybe leave out a chapter and make references to events that happened in it later.

The original publisher may have done it too. In my job, we cut cool stuff out all the time to save cost. If the original page cost $0.01 to print and they made 100k copies of the book then cutting the page saves the publisher about $1000. Cost plays a big role in publishing. Even if the author wanted to include the page, the bottom dollar is what makes decisions.
