Deadman Wonderland- Why It Deserves A Second Season

Deadman Wonderland: Ganta

I saw an article online and I can't understand why this anime is getting so much hate. I personally loved it. From what I understand from the article and the comments people were disappointed with the ending of the manga, and how the anime does not follow the same path as the manga. I don't think these are reasons why you should hate an anime. (but to all their own)

The anime is about a boy named Ganta who gets framed for killing his entire class. Being the only one who knows the unbelievable truth about how his friends died and not being able to defend himself, he is sent to prison on a death sentence. The prison is privately run facility that makes its prisoners play dangerous survival games for entertainment. He is surrounded by bloodthirsty inmates with a collar around his neck that is slowly killing him. While all he can think of is getting back at the Red Man who killed his friends and brought him to this hell.

That's basically the gist of it, but on a deeper level. The prison represents our society but the only difference is that the people in there are criminals and no one cares about their voices. So the things that are done behind closed doors and under disguises are done openly in the prison.

Now you tell me how is that a bad plot? I know many things were twisted and creepy but if that's a problem you shouldn't watch something like this it to begin with.  In addition to that if the story line is wavering away from the manga, that's not too bad either. As I am sure the writers would make ends meet and justify the happily/ sadly ever after.

For someone like me who hasn't read the manga  there are a lot of things I am curious about. There are too many stones left unturned. This anime deserves a second season to answer all the questions it raised. It deserves a second season because the anime is really cool, not just the plot but the underlying themes are well thought.

My favorite thing about the anime: The Woodpecker Song (it gave me goosebumps when i first heard it, even though it is really simple)

You Are too Much - Review

This drama is too much, too too too Toooooooooo Much!!! So the story revolves around two women. One being a popular star and the other her imitator. This drama is filled up to the brim with shouting, screaming, kicking, beating, potting, crying, lying, deceiving  and cheating. Before watching this drama you must know that no one in the rich family eats, they only gather at the table to fight If for once they do eat that just means they have acquired the energy to fight even more. It is one of the first dramas that I watched and has more then 21 episodes. The plot is amazing and the first few episodes really reel you in but then the one of the main character get changed because they got sick in real life #getwellsoon, and the drama sort of looses a little bit of its charm. When The actor was first replaced I dropped the drama and though that I would probably never see it again but the story stayed in my head and I wanted to know what would happen next. Yes, there are moments ...

Kill Me, Heal Me Vs Hyde, Jekyll, Me - Review

Seemingly there is soooooo much common between these two dramas, like they both aired in the January of 2015 or that they both are about Chaebols suffering with the same psychological disorder ( Dissociative Identity Disorder) , who are trying to hide their demons from the world and will be saved by ladies in shinning lop gloss. Aaaaaaannnnnddd that's just about it! Other then the basic plot which seems very rudimentary at first sight but has its own depths of each drama, both the stories are very different from each other. Let's save the best for last and talk about  Hyde, Jekyll, Me first. The aesthetics are very eye catching, that include the male lead, Hyun Bin with  his two charming personalities (Gu Seo Jin and Robin)  that hate each other. For them to live a normal life Gu seo Jin must come to terms with his past and deal with the sorrow and anxiety that comes with it, but turns out he's a coward. Evidently there are a lot of changes to b...

Fight For My Way (Review)

This drama is fairly unconventional in the sense that incorporates careers, dreams and emotions in a very realistic way. Yes, it does have a love triangle and other conventional parts that all romantic k-dramas have but it gives all of that a practical touch. Four childhood friends, pursue their lives while forgetting their dreams but as the story develops their realize their dreams again and literally fight for their way. Park Seo Joon for his dream to become a fighter and Kim Ji Won for her dream to become an announcer. while pursuing their dreams they come to terms with their feeling and fall in love. The only obstacle their dreams and their wish to keep each other safe. And also a crazy ex from the past who wont take no for an answer.
