I see a lot of people call him "Guntz", even people from North America, which I find weird since in the US, he was called "Gantz", what do you guys call him? :unsure:

Guntz is the correct form of his name, Gantz is just a censorship measure. :embarassed:

I'm guessing "Guntz" is his English name while "Gantz" is his Japanese name (Gantz was the displayed name in the translated version of Namco X Capcom) :unsure:

I do still prefer his English name ;D

makes sense
i think they changed the name to make it a play on words/pun
GUNtz, cause he uses guns, get it?

"Gantz" was also used in Dream Champ Tournament, I'm pretty sure, if I'm not mixing things up. :unsure:

Also, the Japanese pronunciation of his name is "Gantsu" (ガンツ).

Somehow, i have always read it as "Guntz" and never realized it was "Gantz" and never knew there was a name of "Gantz" for him?  :confused: It makes more sense "Guntz", and, well, uhhhh, wasn't he called Guntz in Beach Volleyball? Maybe that's why i always read his name as "Guntz".
Is this a forum they forgot, or has the forum forgot them?
