    If your reading the manga read till the end you'll find out. And idol girl reika? From what I remember instead of being set free revives a second kuronu kei. Memories of that kurono kei is from the day he died in the temple I believe ain't read it for years so could be wrong but yeah read the manga if you can find it.

    Reika pretty much asked gantz for her own copy of kurono since she realized he's too into tae and resigned herself to her selfish wish since she realized gantz could accomplish almost anything. Her kurono was pretty much confused at first since he was still of the same template that loved tae, but later also consigned himself to start caring for reika, albeit half heartedly, while telling himself that his other self would take care of tae

    So they got transferred to the last Gantz mission which took place in Italy in which the old man died, after the mission seemingly failed Gantz stopped operating singling the doomsday timer almost being over. Everyone leaves but Reika returns forgetting something only to see the person inside gantz come out, he asks her who she wanted to revive and at first she was gonna pick the old man but her creepy love for kurono took over and she went for a kurono revival while kurono was already alive. They meet the OP alien creators of the gantz technology who tell them that ultimately god doesn't existexist ne does heaven or hell, to demonstrate the futileness(?)of life they revive reika (who died sacrificing herself for clone kurono) and some other chars who died only to kill them seconds later which enrages clone kurono who attacks them and they kill him too. The alien civilization that were the strongest end up being spared after original kurono listens to his gf and he and katou return back home and it ends like that.


    I recently did a re read so some details are in my head still

    Kurono (clone) wanted to swap for Kei's place since he wants to be with Tae (gf) but Kei simply told him to be with Reika (idol) since he knew how much she's infatuated with him.
    Many things happened so I'll just summarize it.
    The aliens invaded, then Tae got captured so Kei went to the rescue, while the clone went with the Attack force who went inside the spaceship along with Reika. There they met many aliens who are very powerful while covering for the escaping humans. Then one by one the squad got eliminated then it came to the end where Kurono (clone) got very wounded he can't fight anymore, that's when Reika sacrificed her life to destroy those aliens.
    Fast forward, the Attack Force met a Higher Entity who told them there's no God, it then ressurected all the girls that Kurono loved ( the first girl, Angelina Jolie look alike, and Reika) but killed them that instant. In a fit of rage, Kurono attacked, but he was blown to smithereens.
    While all of that was happening, the real Kurono managed to rescue Tae, however, the commander of the alien force challenged him for a fight in which he won by blasting the head of the commander by Kaioken. Then it went happily ever after.
    Whoooo.... that sure was long

    It was during the time's end period, when the giant aliens came down in their big ships. All the Gantz balls stopped working just as when Reika had enough points to revive some of the others who died and they all left the apartment. Reika went back and met with the guy inside the ball, who said he could revive one person of Reika's choosing. Instead of reviving the uncle, Reika chose to revive Kurono (who was actually still alive). Gantz, not having the information about who's dead or alive, just cloned Kurono from the database as Reika wished. So there were two Kurono. Of course he's real, even the other Kurono was just a clone. When they got transported, their information is copied into the system. When they die and get revived, their last information was cloned. The original remained dead.

    In the end, the psychotic kid had the mecha fight he wanted. The monsters were defeated and they met 'god' who gave them the Gantz technology in the first place.

    Honestly the ending of this manga sucked a lot for me.
    I loved the manga until the part where all the Gantz balls stopped working and kurono got cloned. *sigh*
