The whole set up frustrated me. HOW THE ACTUAL HELL DO PEOPLE THINK A KID LIKE HIM COULD CAUSE THAT MUCH DAMAGE?! There wasn’t a more practical way for you to get him to the carnival?!
Oh man I remember watching this in high school w/ my best friend at the time. Later when we did a workout class together we would play the opening ALL the time if we could.
I thought you were gonna say you did a workout class together and thought everyone in your class would be slaughtered and you'd be falsely accused of murder
No, no it's torture porn disguised as an animae. A decent into increasing madness and sadism from a first person POV. Claymore, Attack on Titian, or even Made in Abyss has better story and frankly more intelligent.
There's unfortunately no part 2 as it did well in the US but not in Japan so it wasn't renewed for a second season. Luckily the manga is finished though and the story is really good, you can find the manga online on sites like Novel cool. If you don't want to read it then I'll sum it up below. Main character Ganta's mother was a scientist who was going to use him for an experiment. But once he's born, she realizes she can't bring herself to use her own child for the experiment so she adopts Shiro and uses her instead. They experimented on her in order to gain insight in how to heighten a person's immune system and unintentionally made her the first deadman who is able to pass it on to others. She goes through horrific experimentation with her limbs often falling off/deteriorating with them having to sew them back on. The experimentation was so painful that it caused her to create a second homicidal personality called Wretched Egg to cope with the pain who is the red man. The Tokyo earthquake was caused by Wretched Egg in an attempt to commit suicide as she was in so much pain however she was unable to due to how fast her body regenerates. TL;DR they make something called the Mother Goose system to keep the Wretched Egg personality at bay/subduing her however there are times it isn't strong enough and Wretched Egg takes control. When she sees Ganta's class is visiting the park, she decides to kill all his classmates and infects Ganta with the deadman strain to get him sent to the park and to get him to hate her so he will kill her, infecting him so he's stronger and more able to do so. She wants him to kill her because she loves him. The story ends with them fighting and he's unable to kill her so neither wins and Wretched Egg/Shiro is sent to a mental hospital and Ganta is cleared of all charges and it ends with him visiting her.
This. This is the anime that got me to hate stupid story plots. It is so wards-back that having dramatic scenes and increasing sadism (physical and mental) is all that is driving the storylines. Go watch Claymore to see how plot and worldbuilding should make drama, not the other way around. 🤦

Imo I don't think it needed an epilogue because I think the ending was perfect, Ganta's talking to Shiro who appears to be asleep and after he leaves the last panel of the manga shows Shiro smiling and awake. I think it's a sweet ending.
how tf does the police think a weak child does that much damage destroying the entire room and turns his classmates into skeletons or smth people who are smart like the police won't think he did that
Some police officers actually dumb,like one time i was in a store chilling looking at stuff,then someone steals just a iphone case and when a police officer nearby came he thought i was the one that stole it..but luckily my sister defended me
Recaps are like hearing about your first kiss, rather than experiencing it yourself. Seeing a picture versus being there EXPERIENCING it. Watch Deadmans Wonderland people. recaps miss %70 of ambience and emotion. (Reading lyrics versus hearing them sang.) ALSO how is this recap not 5 years old already??? (Swore this one hit the scene 2015 the anime not the manga, to be clear)
