Marcus James This anime would be much better if I were around 12 or 13 years old because I probably would not have been able to compare this show to others like Elfen Lied or any of the plethora of the wrongly accused jail movies. Aside from being uninspiring, the real problem is that entire show suffers from a severe mismatch between plot tone and characterization. The tone is depressing and bleak while the characters contradict this by being silly and comedic. It simply does not work because the comedy is not very good (mostly just lame fan service stuff) and the dark tone is not reinforced by the characters at all (they are too easy going and dumb most of the time). Thus you cannot care for either. There are plenty of dark comedies out there but this one is not good enough to be either a comedy or a drama. Imagine if Dragon Ball Z took itself seriously... it simply would not work. Same here. I did not even enjoy the 1st few episodes that most people seem to like.

erickjavier09 This anime is one of the best action anime in recent years, certainly not for kids because of the graphic violence but it's very good.It has a very dark tone and even the characters you will like the have a dark side to them. The story is very good with great plot twists and with characters developed in very realistic ways.There is only one fatal flaw that stops me from giving this a 10 and that is the fact that it is incomplete, what I mean by that is that the show ended in a cliffhanger and it was canceled after that, if you liked this,go read the manga with the complete story.It is certainly not for the squeamish and outside of the violence, contains some mature content, but it is strongly recommended for anyone who can handle it.

RecapAnime Deadman Wonderland is a anime that some might find a bit to dark and probably offensive in some ways. But this anime is really good for what its worth. I really liked the idea behind the story right from the beginning and the show did not hold back when developing the plot. What gives this anime bonus points is the violence. From a class room slaughter to decapitation, when push comes to shove this anime doesn't hold back. Also the characters are perfect in this anime and I personally thought the dubbed actors/actresses were excellent.One problem I had is that the anime didn't feel like it was finished, the so called ending was good but so many questions were left unanswered and apparently this anime didn't do to good in Japan so its most likely this anime will end up being like "Highschool of the Dead". In other words not getting a second season.

kelv-2 Violence is the name of the game for this anime. But like a lot of anime the violence is only part of this entertaining show. The action is fast paced and the plot is simple and easy to follow. the characters are quite well developed and you do have some feeling when they eventually die or come to harm. There aren't too many huge plot twists like in a lot of other anime.The only gripes I have are that i don't really like reading subtitles so i like English dubbed anime and they always use the same crappy voice actors. the main characters voice is especially annoying. It was also disappointing to get to part 12 only to realise that it wasn't the last episode and there was a whole other series that they haven't finished yet
