Trivia[]
- Unlike most of the filler characters he does not appear in the first episode
- Even though he kills Nozaki with a gun, the Gantz suits usually protect against bullets. Of course nothing in the filler ending makes sense, since if Gantz wanted Kurono dead he'd just make the bomb in his head go off. That or Gantz wanted Kei Kurono to suffer.
- Kajiura's English voice actor, John Gremillion, does not pronounce Kajiura's name correctly. When all the filler characters are introducing themselves he says 'Ruhaji Kajiuri'
- He has fantastic social skills
- He does not really like Muroto.
- He doesn't seem to enjoy the killing like Muroto does, but does it passively without remorse.
- Out of all of the other Gantz members, Nozaki is the only one he killed while the others died because of his partner.
