First Impressions: Deadman Wonderland


Deadman Wonderland does have one initial plot fault, do the police normally suspect the lone survivor of a mass murder without so much as asking for his account first? It seems far fetched that the instance Ganta Igarashi awakes in the hospital he is immediately arrested despite no evidence or eyewitnesses. Let’s also bear in mind that the true assailant blow in the windows of a third floor classroom, how can the police attribute that to one of the people inside the room? I guess we’re suppose to assume inside frame job, however what would have made this premise stronger is if the ‘unprecedented evidence’ against Ganta were in fact feasible. However with that aside, Deadman Wonderland marks a pretty solid horror-slaughter fest, in the similar veins of Battle Royale. I’m pretty much sold on this one, let the violence commence!

Initial Rating: 9/10
