Obviously no one told you about Sei. That bitch kicks ass. Reika is also not completely useless. But, really, it's not that uncommon for female characters to not get much of the limelight. It's still an amazing series, so it sucks you won't be able finish it because of that.

Care to describe them? I am not OP, but I also dropped the manga - around the eleventh volume, I think, and I don't remember any good female characters in there. The girl in OP's picture - what's her name, Kei? - was an idiot and eventually got killed. Then there was this girl who agreed to fuck the main character five minutes after she met him and died the same day. And, on the same mission as her, there was a stereotypical stalker girl who wore her nightdress on the street, didn't say a word and was the reason the guy she liked died in the first place. I suppose she was meant to be a sympathetic character as she was revealed to be pretty and (a little) helpful later, but she was also a weakling and died. And right before I stopped reading, main character got himself a girlfriend, who was somewhat nice at first, but turned out to be a little weird in the head, since she continued dating the guy who, if I remember correctly, run from the class when his classmates were about to be slaughtered and actually watching them die had none impact on her whatsoever..

..I felt like I judged it a little too quickly (though it's no comparison to OP) after quiting Gantz, because some of my friends like it and whenever someone who reads seinen is asked for recommendations it's on their list, so I might give it another try if female characters do improve.

They don't improve at all and you can even say the got worst
Honestly Reika was the biggest disappointment for me in the lastest chapters and Tae is just there just like Cherry's girlfriend.

Well, this sucks.

Because Gantz is only recommended by the likes of people who think Death Note (or other pretentious pseudo-violent manga) are the best things since slice bread.

It's a seinen focused on sensationalism and yes, sexism; I doubt it's bound to change. There are other better seinen out there, ones that treat female characters as real human beings at that.
