Nice! New music video!

How interesting it is to find that there are more people with those unique powers.

Anyway, did anyone else think of A Clockwork Orange at the end?

The blood manipulation in this series is how I imagine bloodbending would be in a darker version of Nickelodeon's Avatar.

Wait, so Crow is afraid of girls? His "interaction" with Shiro reminded me of Yamcha from his desert bandit days.

Poor Ganta... is there any coming back from what this kid is going through?

4 Stars.

I'm glad that Tamaki finally spilled the beans and dropped his pretensions about what he's actually doing to Ganta. Given the immense amount of crap this kid has had to endure, to go this long without actually getting any answers is a manner of torture. I'm also glad to see that there's an apparent board of directors/investors behind Deadman Wonderland (even if they use bunny rabbits and froggies as avatars); because this tells me that there is an entirely different level of tomfoolery going on here that we may not yet know about.

That would be so cool... Fund it!

Ha! Old School Yamucha was hilarious. Now you've got me digging around in my collection for other characters like this... It's a funny archetype: super-manly man who is deathly afraid of girls (perhaps Harima from School Rumble?).
