I guess it's safe to say by now that Deadman Wonderland will never get a second season.
Which leaves us with an open ending, and much that hasn't been shown, so in order to get answers, I started the manga series.
Ganta Igarashi is framed for the murder of his classmates, which was actually done by a "red man". He is sentenced to go to a lethal prison facility, where the inmates are forced to entertain the masses in games. Upon his arrival, he is confronted with the harsh reality of Deadman Wonderland, as the chief warden Makina cuts down aother inmate right before his eyes.
A strage girl with white hair and red eyes breaks into his cell, telling him they made a promise long ago even though he has absolutely no recollection of her. Later on, they survive an attack on his life, seemingly due to a piece of red glass that was shot into his chest during the massacre. Azami, another inmate, learns him the ways of the prison in the meantime.
Unfortunatly, he catches the eye of the prison bully as he wants to join an obstacle race, and the bully expects them all to throw the race so he can get the prize money, to which Ganta revolts. Soon he finds out the obstacles are lethal, but he must win the race to gain an antidote. All the inmates collars continiously inject poison into them, which is lethal after three days. Ganta needs a candy antidote as his first one was lost, so in order to buy it he needs to win or die a day later.
But he gives up on his chance to win to save Shiro, who has been protecting him during the race. But the guy that bumped into him earlier and got slashed for that gives him a candy, although this was originally Ganta's which Yo stole, but now he wants to make him a pawn of his. The Red Man, or "Wretched Egg" appears though after breaking out of a secret facility in the prison, but Ganta fends him off as suddenly he can make projectiles from his own blood...
And so the journey in the most twisted prison in Japan has begun, over the coming months I`ll be adding more volumes of this 13 book series, and finally find out as such how it will end!
