I just watched The Taking of Pelham 123 (John Travolta's still teh man!) and felt like having a chat with my brother and so I did. So it somewhat ended up in me asking him about the animes that he's been watching and turns out there's none at the moment. He then proceeded to tell me about his plans of checking out some upcoming anime adaptations of those mangas he had been following... shit, and shit, and that shit, and this; Deadman Wonderland was the one title he mentioned that caught my attention. And as bored as hell I am currently now, I decided to make it known around here, to those who don't know it yet that the series is gonna get its ANIME. As if making a thread of it here isn't already sooo obvious as to what...
Fuck, now that's a story! (though highly relevant to nothing)
Basically, I've got zero knowledge of this series yet so I just gotta say what I hafta say (or what I can) but whatever. Hearing its title rang my interest a bit. My initial visualization of it though turned out quite a bit different after looking at some image materials but not that disappointed overall. The premise still seems "twisted" (dark) enough for me to like anyway, so I'd surely be giving it a try when its time arrives.
Also, the lead kiddo seems to be rather meek... plus the look reminded me of the boy in Eureka 7 (and yes, I think I know why); God knows how I hate such kids.

The story is set after the destruction of most of Tokyo by an earthquake and centers on Ganta Igarashi, a middle school student framed for the murder of his classmates. Igarashi is sentenced to Deadman Wonderland, a bizarre privatized prison that is one part incarceration and one part public spectacle for tourists.
Gaaa I love this series so much but the site which I read it hasn't updated it in like 5 months. Currently im staled on chapter 21. Id be very interested in the anime.
Hm... interesting. Before I watch that, it's time I pick up a manga book of that and have a read. But the plot is intriguing, and sure as hell piques me.
If they follow the manga and not come up with extra bs. This will be one of my fav upcoming animes. Although I dislike the main character(Ganta) a bit because of his pussy ways but still ^^.

I put 3 stamps on this comment. Let's just hope they don't f*ck it up like the rest of the animes that exist.
First ep is now out. I wasn't planning on watching this, but why not..
Also here an interview given during the 15th with the director: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interview/2011-04-15/interview-deadman-wonderland-director-koichi-hatsumi
Gotta say I am looking forward to this since the manga was a breath of fresh air. The animation style looks really nice from the OP, but I'm not really digging the music.
