Does Shiro mean betrayal?

Yet again, I find myself speechless after another chapter of Deadman Wonderland. Twisted and clever, I think this series deserves more than people are giving it credit for – therefore, don’t let its premise stop you from reading beyond the first chapter! Hibana is just incredibly frightening, nicknamed ‘punishment’ because ‘‘mama told her that bad people should die. This belief instantly reminded me of Light from Death Note, but Hibana definitely has a better and more violent mind. She’s adorable, but also insane – that’s why I love her. When Shiro threw the data chip away, I was actually more concerned about what Ganta was going to do next than the fact that she actually has a brain.

Unfortunately, another good cliff-hanger saved until another month or so; the wait for the release of each chapter is agonizing! Nagi was getting beaten by Hibana so badly that I thought he was going to die. Good thing he only lost an arm and had to endure a few scratches. I was also glad that he managed to open the elevator for the others. On the other hand, the Undertakers are extremely powerful and the level of difference between Ganta’s gang and Tamaki’s underlings is too big. Nevertheless, I’m sure that Ganta and company will pull through somehow – isn’t that how all manga/anime flow? Then again, this is Deadman Wonderland. Nothing is predictable.
