GIGANT

A manga about a high school student who meets his favorite porn star who has gained an alien power to grow in size.

We’ve discussed this on a previous episode.

This book is VERY Hiroya Oku. And by that I mean everything from the story to characters is very similar to Oku’s other works like GANTZ and Inuyashiki. You have strange humanoid aliens who dress strangely, a horny teenage protagonist, an excessively sexy female character, fantastical alien creatures, violent action scenes, and weird self-promotional scenes praising Oku’s other manga.

Basically if you’ve read Oku’s other stuff and like it, you’ll like this. Not really my taste but I’ll keep skimming it as I read through my issues of Big Comic Superior.

It’s available from Seven Seas Entertainment.
