Book Review: Deadman Wonderland Vol. 2


Review:  #734
Title:  Deadman Wonderland Vol. 2
Series:  Deadman Wonderland - 2nd volume
Author:  Jinsei Kataoka & Kazuma Kondou
Read Before:  no
Comments:  Continuing on the plight of Ganta as he is thrown into the prison attraction Deadman Wonderland.  More of its secrets is shown here and as Ganta succinctly puts it at the end of the volume, it’s all insane.  With that said, we do learn a bit more about Ganta’s powers and his nemesis, as well as the hidden facets of the prison.  It takes on a gorier side towards the end which isn’t to everyone’s tastes.  Shiro is also a mysterious character whose past (and her extraordinary strength) remains hidden.  Towards the end of the volume, it is starting to become a little bit too generic though and the unique hook of the plot just isn’t as strong as it should be.
