Just watched the last episode today and i thought it was really good! I'd say 8.

However there's just one thing that's bugging me so much! (well, besides the obvious unanswered questions they purposefully left to set up for season 2) So even though Karako and a few others escaped, isn't the poison still coursing through their veins? Or does it just like magically disappear when they leave the prison? This plot hole is going to bother me to no end unless they somehow fill it in the second season

meh average anime, such a let down after the first amazing episode. 6/10 for me. Way to much undevolpered characters just forced onto the viewers, I'm sure in the manga it was done better, but the whole show felt rushed and parts of it could have been explained alot better.

Plus ganta is a crybaby, needs to stop whining all the time.

I'm glad the priest died. Can't say the same for poor Nagi though.
And yay Karako and a few others managed to escape. :3

There needs to be a second season. No really, because otherwise this was just a WTF ending for me. It was like driving down the road, and we speed up and get closer and closer to our destination through winding roads and such, only to suddenly just "be there".

"But, how did he know that song... I wonder." Has got to be the most retarded ending sentence from one of the most retarded lead characters I've ever seen. I know he's been in the crazy house for awhile but he should still be able to put two and two together. And I mean just what the heck was that crap where Shiro was all badass and then suddenly Ganta gets all badass and then the two are suddenly all badass and then bam.

So many unanswered questions, there better be a second season else this has got to be one of the worst endings in anime history.

Praying for a season two for the anime....finished it tonight....it was 10/10 for me...up until the last ten minutes or so.

Such a dull buzzkill cliffhanger. I know it ended in the middle of the manga, thus why it ended the way it did....but I am not satisfied. I need more. I need closure. I need it to...you know.....end.

This whole anime started out really good, then became...boring. About halfway I was thinking, I saw this kind of plot somewhere...and I realized: Needless. Human experiments, Tokyo got eradicated, a game where people with superpower fight against each other... Well, for me, too many similarities. I really enjoyed the first 4-6 episodes, but the overall score from me is 5/10.

Can definitely use the season 2 treatment, it ended too randomly.
There hasn't been much epic animes out recently, so this was a good change :).

The priest finally died. I don't hate that guy as much as I hate Ganta and the Promoter but I'm just glad he died before this series ended.

Mockingbird apparently can copy any Deadman's attack as long as he "taste" their blood, like what he did to Crow.

And how dense is Ganta? If there will be a 2nd season of this anime, I just can hope that Ganta's not as pathetic as he was in this season.

Overall, it was quite an enjoyable anime~

Nop, she is the Wrenched egg but she's not the Red man. Cause in 3rd episode or something like that, when Ted man escaped from G sector, Ganta used his power to protect her when Red man was attacking ,if I'm not mistaken.

Alright then. So i'm just going to expect a second season. Because, that ending didn't really leave me anywhere. In this seasons case, 7/10 would be the most appropriate. ''Deadman Wonderland'' completed! Hopefully another season will leave me with a sense of what's really going on.

Well overall it was quite entertaining but it felt quite rushed at the end, also I would have liked to seen more of the prison games and the 1v1 matches. Overall this deserver a 7/8 out of 10

It felt like parts of the season were cut and rushed, even if I haven't read the manga. It seemed like it suddenly sped up, I dunno. Either way I hope it's not one of those types of anime that leaves everyone on cliffhangers.

I'll just sit and wait for a second season to be confirmed.

I just really want to see the look on his face when he finds out who Red Man is. ^^

The anime itself didn't life up to my expectations. I loved the manga and hoped for a great adaption BUT they took out to many charakters and beside some epically animated scenens in the first episode the animation quallity never reached the higher mid class...
It's sad but the anime was a flop. The Blu-Rays don't sell in Japan and I guess that's why there is no Uncensored Blu-Ray version because they feared that they won't get enought money if the took the higher rating.

There is no "end" yet. Not sure why, but it abruptly stopped at the end of the first arc. So of course there's no closing.

I liked it, but there were a lot of lose ends. And Ganta is so stupid he doesn't even realise who the hell Shiro is even though she is literally singing it to him. So:
1. Is he never going to find out?
2. Will he ever escape?
3. How will he answer to the questions asked to him?
4. Seriously, who the hell is Toto?
5. Where did his last amazing 'power' come from?

And so many more...

even though the ending did leave questions i still loved it, and I will definately be reading the manga at some point (in that case i may even come to think diferently about this series... but either way, great, i just hope there is a second season at some point! Would love to see more from crow and mocking bird because quite frankly he just semt like a crazy ass dude, but also fucking bad-ass, the way he killed that lolita girl!

But yeah only annoying this was Ganta for me, I expected him to pull something good out the bag at the end, it was inevitable.. but that still did make up for his pathetic excuse for a main hero, other than that im rating this 8/10 just for him, and the unanswered questions! Love Shiro though, she was by far the best character for me :)

Has a second season for this been green-lit yet!? If there's not a sequel/second part to this I will be so upset. The ending was not at all satisfactory and left way too many questions unanswered.

Hm I finished this whole anime in one day but I was expecting a plot somewhere where Ganta would be like: 'O_o Shiro why are you the Red Man' and Shiro goes like 'Yandere mode=on'

But alas...

At least Shiro did use her powers a little bit...

At the end it got really tiresome though Shiro purely playing some innocent kid that lost her mind..

Total anime: 6.5/10 ... first 6 episodes: 9/10, 7-9: 8, 10-11= 5 and the last episode was just dogshit.


Though I liked the part where Ganta learned how to use his bloody bullets better lulz

They simply have to make a second season. That just wasn't an ending! There wasn't even an outro or something!!!
And plus, I wanna see a twisted Mockingbird slicing his/her (still not sure about the gender) tthrough Deadman Wonderland ^^ not to speak about the unsolved mystery of Shiro and her grandpa.

And for the episode itself...
Man, this whole nagi-story really broke my heart... what a poor man :( hope he finds salvation in the afterlive.
But WTF was Ganta thinking when he told Nagi that he understood his pain? What does that little whimp know about having you child and your wife taken away from you?? Pathetic little weakling -.-

I've just finished this a couple minutes ago.

Anyway, I find it highly appealing that, amidst the darkness and perversion, there was hope, friendship, and self-sacrifice.

That said, the final episode ended with lots of questions unresolved. Gearing up for a second season??

If there is no second (or addition seasons) this anime is shit.

Otherwise it could be passable. I didn't completely hate what little the series offered but once Senji had less screentime and basically most of the "We Must Escape" mini-arc the show lost its luster.

Karako...my girl, I liked her but she basically becoming Kenny from South Park. Nagi was kind of cool even in the very end but almost everything around him was terrible.

Ganta crying speeches got longer and more dragged out the further it got in, it was cool the first few episodes but wow enough already. The whole lets tip-toe tap dance around the whole Shiro=Red Man deal was a terrible thing to do if they're not gonna bother with another season considering Red Man was the main thing that set the series off in the first place.

It's not suddenly make it better, but second season can actually expand on ideas and content of the first season and make a possible complete series. That's why I said it could be passable.

The way it is now it's just half-assed.

Great episode, although it seemed like a quick ending to the series.. There are a lot of loose ends, or at least a few major ones. 4/5
As for the series, it was a lot better than I expected. 7/10

I thought this was a terrific episode! Haven't been this entertained since the premiere!

It ended with a cliffhanger and had some loose ends, but how is that a negative? Hello?!! The story is still ongoing! It followed the manga too! What is up with people these days? If they tried to close off all loose ends with an anime original ending, people will complain it was a shitty manga adaption! If they wrapped up the season like how they did with Avatar: The Legend of Korra, folks would complain it felt too closed off and complete....i.e. you can't please everyone.

Overall? 9/10 for sure. I hope a season 2 gets the green light someday!

We'll definitely need a season too i mean i understand the cliffhanger because the manga is still on going but seriously this episode felt so rushed like how they rushed in the guitar undertakers past so we feel sorry for him.. that was un-needed in my opinion and ganta was still such a cry baby and it was really weird seeing shiro getting beat up since she's supposedly has been there longer than anybody and she's been super strong in past episodes Nagis and kariko love also felt rushed making me unable to feel bad for them 7/10

Pretty good ending; pretty gory; pretty awesome. Not a bad ending for an entertaining anime. Hoping diligently for a 2nd season.

The episode (especially the end) made me feel that Shiro killed his class; Ganta, saying that the song she sang at the end was the last thing he heard when his class was killed, her codename being wretched egg, and how she implied as to being the redman a few times throughout the anime. Still a bit more thinking to do, but it seems plausible to say the least; would be a great twist.

Oh, and I liked how Ganta, instead of running away, chose to stay and protect his friend(s). Really good show of character.

I knew the ending wouldn't be any "ending" at all. Hmm well, glad Ganta finally made up with Shiro, so I'm satisfied even if they didn't wrap anything up. There is a slight chance I will read the manga to see how it ends. But only if I feel like it...

This episode looked to me that it needed more work, they rushed everything so quickly and still there were unsolved answers. Too many sources says that a second season will be made so I guess it will be better to just read the manga.
