Summary:
Ganta Igarashi has been convicted of a crime that he hasn't committed, and sent to a new, privately owned and operated prison, where the inmates are the main attraction in a modern day twist to the gladiatorial coliseums of ancient times. Throw in a healthy dose of weird little girl, some new-found super powers, and a little conspiracy theory, and you have Deadman Wonderland.

pros
+ interesting but twisted concept, shows the "darkness of human nature"
+ characters make you feel with them
+ good graphics
cons
- deviates from the manga and stops at the best part
- animation has its hiccups
- unnecessarily cruel in places
conclusion: first i have to say is that this anime features absolutely insane cruelty. it's not so bloody it could gain the title of 'second elfen lied' but i felt like it's unnecessarily brutal in places. 17+.
now for the real comment... in a twisted way, it's interesting enough if you're in for the darkness/brutality. graphics are good, the charas are designed so you're able to actually empathise with them, and the whole anime shows a look into "human nature"/the darkness of it. interesting in a twisted way, but personally, i prefer the manga, for the simple fact that this anime got cut short, aka stops right where it starts getting interesting.
