So You Think You Can Gantz

?Natsuna Watanabe can Gantz. Mostly because she’s playing Kei Kishimoto in the live-action movie of the preposterously violent, often quite naughty manga — well, that, and she’s pictured above. I’m not going to lie; that’s a hell of a picture. I can’t imagine that Ms. Watanabe managed to slide into that outfit by herself; it probably takes a team of assistants, including one to cover her in baby powder first, so she doesn’t chaff. Best job in Japan? I’d say odds are good. (Via AnimeVice)
