Blu-ray Review: Deadman Wonderland – The Complete Series

We travel deep down the rabbit hole as we explore the UK exclusive Blu-ray release of Deadman Wonderland, but what did we find? Well find out in our Blu-ray Review of Deadman Wonderland – The Complete Series.

Synopsis:

Ganta is the only survivor after a mysterious man in red slaughters a classroom full of teenagers. He’s framed for the carnage, sentenced to die, and locked away in the most twisted prison ever built: Deadman Wonderland. Then it gets worse.

At Deadman Wonderland, convicts are forced into brutal deathmatches for the amusement of the masses, the cheers of the crowd drowning out the screams of the dismembered. Even when Ganta befriends Shiro, an unusual female inmate, his dark fate crushes all hope – until he discovers a strange ability to wield his spilled blood as a weapon. Ganta learns his new skill might be related to the murderous man in red and uncovers disturbing secrets that could expose those who stole his freedom. He’s determined to see justice served – but first he’ll have to fight for his life in a prison that holds a million ways to die.

UK Release of Deadman Wonderland Delayed Due to Production Issues

Earlier today Manga Entertainment UK confirmed that the UK DVD & Blu-ray release of Deadman Wonderland has been delayed due to production issues, and that it will now be released in September.

FYI: Due to a production issue the DVD and Blu-ray release of Deadman Wonderland has been pushed back to 9th September. ^JG

The Series will be released as a complete series box set, which will arrive as a 2 Disc DVD (for the DVD Release) and 2 Disc Blu-ray (for the Blu-ray release), and was originally slated for release on the 1st July 2013. However due to issues at production this release has now been delayed until the 9th September 2013.

The specific reason for the delay is unknown, however considering a Blu-ray release of Deadman Wonderland has not been released outside of Japan yet its understandable that delays can occur.

For now though Deadman Wonderland: The Complete series is expected to be released on the 9th September 2013, but in the meantime why not check out the English trailer for the series.
