The whole story starts out in the not-too-distant future where Tokyo has been completely destroyed and is in the process of being rebuilt. Ganta Igarashi was one of few who managed to escape from the destruction and is now your typical middle school student... Until the day when a mysterious man in red is seen floating outside of the third floor classroom Ganta and his friends are sitting in. Before anyone can react the Red Man launches himself through the window and proceeds to slaughter the entire class, leaving only Ganta alive. But he has something interesting planned for our main character. Before he exits, the Red Man implants a red crystal directly into Ganta's chest, causing him so much pain he passes out. But when Ganta wakes up, he finds himself at the center of the mass murder investigation and is the only suspect. He's quickly falsely accused and presumed guilty of the crime and is sentenced to Death Row in Deadman Wonderland, the only privately owned prison in the world that also acts as a theme park.
Because he's on Death Row, the collar Ganta is forced to wear injects a poison into his system constantly and the only way to help it is by eating a candy distributed by the prison. But in order to earn the candy Ganta has to either perform on stage, be a stage-hand, or get cast points by performing in deadly games the prison sets up. Now here's the big twist, Ganta finds that he and a select few other inmates are able to use their blood as weapons! And I'm talking actually lethal, blade-like, slice-you-to-ribbons weapons. Seriously, how much freakier than that can you get? And if all that didn't get you interested enough here's a lil video to hook you...
