"#08 Scar Chain" "The Branch of Sin didn't work." "Did something happen?" "Oh, Rokuro." "Welcome back." "Got the data?" "Our work finally paid off." "Nice!" "Great work!" "Though the security didn't make it easy for me." "We can finally get things moving." "Who are these people?" "Ganta!" "I'm gonna eat the pudding." "Hey, hold on!" "Gimme half!" "By the way, where do you get the Rainbow pudding every time?" "The stores only sell the Bang brand, right?" "I dunno." "One's always there when I wake up." "Our new recruit." "I thought of gathering everyone so that I can introduce him." "So that's him, huh?" "Ah, nice to meet you." "I'm Igarashi Ganta." "Hey, Bro..." "She your girlfriend?" "Huh?" "Oh, no." "Not exactly..." "And that's Hummingbird's big brother, right?" "Yeah..." "Though they aren't Deadmen." "Then why are they in G-block?" "Um, it's a long story..." "Hey, hey." "Don't start up trouble at this critical point in time." "You'll mess up my calculations." "He's the person in charge of information gathering, Rokuro Bundou." "He's the linchpin of this plan." "He's also the one who saved Hummingbird during her penalty game." "Really?" "Thank you!" "Rokuro-kun, this is the girl who drove off Genkaku." "As she's Igarashi-kun's close friend, I trust that no one has a problem with her?" "The eternal optimist, as always!" "That's one of Nagi's best traits." "Yeah!" "It's this wise and open-minded attitude that we trust, and which brought us together here, right?" "Well, I..." "Nagi, that wasn't a compliment." "It wasn't?" "Soft Drinks" "Alcohol" "☀ Ginger Ale" "☀ Cola" "☀ Perrier" "☀ Various Teas" "☀ Wine" "☀ Beer" "☀ Whiskeys" "☀ Cocktails" "Coarse tea, green tea, or brown tea?" "What would you like to order?" "Order?" "He's asking what you want." "Oh!" "What I want?" "Shiro wants a snack!" "With those big, shiny ball thingies!" "Is that a riddle?" "Wow!" "If you're not a Deadman, then are you from the regular prison?" "How did you and he make it here?" "Shiro's always lived here." "Things seem a lot more laid back than I'd anticipated." "Not exactly what I expected from an underground resistance." "I guess it does look like it." "After all, we're setting a big plan into motion." "Then all the more reason to be..." "Igarashi-kun." "What is the freedom that you dream of?" "An inspection?" "Your first time?" "Yes." "Remember, this is a privately owned prison." "Every year, we have a week long inspection to ensure we meet the country's safety standards." "Even that slippery weasel can't leave sensitive data openly lying around while the inspectors are here." "You're sure we should do this?" "This is totally illegal." "If we don't control the secret data, we won't be able to enforce order in the future." "I'm counting on you." "Everything shuts down during inspection week." "There won't be any shows that week, public or private." "They want Deadman Wonderland to look like a squeaky-clean prison with nothing to hide." "That's when we attack." "Our first and last gamble..." "A mass breakout by Deadmen!" "The Undertakers are the real problem." "Everything depends on whether we can hold them off." "True." "Under..." "Undertakers." "You met one today, Igarashi-kun." "From the absolute worst criminals, which are deemed impossible to rehabilitate, only a handful survive a special "correctional" program." "Those that do become Promoter Tamaki's special enforcers." "The anti-Deadman brigade, the Undertakers." "Anti-Deadman..." "Is that why my Branch of Sin wouldn't work on that priest guy?" "The Branch of Sin won't work?" "Do they have some new invention?" "You mean this, right?" "I've hacked the security cameras here." "I've also recorded the actual footage so that we don't get any undesirables wandering in." "Huh?" "Hey, look." "He just dodged it!" "What the heck?" "Don't scare us like that, man." "Maybe you were just drunk?" "That's you." "No..." "I'm serious!" "He" "See?" "I knew we couldn't trust him." "Nothing's going to get better, even if we let a kid like this join us." "He isn't even worth integrating into the plan." "Hey, Rokuro, don't be so mean to him." "Ganta..." "I never said I was joining anyway." "Hey, no..." "It's not like I trust you people, anyway." "You're talking about breaking out of here, but all you do is just slack off!" "I will excuse myself." "Come on, Shiro." "O-Okay." "You can have it." "Don't bully Ganta!" "Nagi..." "Yes, yes." "Sounds good." "Well, I can't believe things are turning out this well." "This calls for a celebration!" "Now I can finally grow this place... into my own, personal Wonderland." "Undertakers?" "Yeah, I know 'em." "What of 'em?" "Ever heard of the Branch of Sin not working on them?" "Like... it just splattered or something." "Huh?" "Did you forget that I'm all about slicing stuff?" "Besides, blood is supposed to splatter." "No..." "I mean, like it just lost its form and disappeared." "Maybe I was just seeing things..." "Don't tell me..." "You had a go with an Undertaker?" "Y-Yeah..." "Ganta, you... don't keep the fun to yourself!" "If you're gonna fight, tell me too!" "Do you know how maxed out my ssslice gauge is?" "!" "B-But it just happened!" "How?" "Um..." "I was with Nagi-san and Karako-san..." "Nagi..." "Ah, Owl?" "He has some kind of bone to pick with the Undertakers." "Did something happen?" "You're interested in other people's pasts now?" "Well, not exactly, but..." "It was about two years ago..." "They killed his woman." "They forced him to fight his wife in the Corpse Carnival." "He told the Promoter that he lost on purpose." "And during the penalty game..." "They cut these out." "But the promoter couldn't forgive Owl about the fixed fight, and he penalized the woman, too." "Nagi tried to escape with her, but..." "He couldn't even cry out her name." "Sorry to intrude." "Igarashi-kun, just now was..." "I'm sorry." "You want revenge too, don't you?" "I heard about your wife." "I'm sorry I said you were all slacking!" "They may look like that, but everyone's nervous." "Fighting is scary." "The same goes for me." "I want to find the Red Man too..." "I'm not fighting for revenge." "But..." "We in Scar Chain are fighting to bring down Deadman Wonderland, so that we can be free." "Free?" "For example..." "I want to hold the baby that my wife bore before she died with these hands of mine." "You have a child?" "Yes." "It's in a nursing facility outside." "Everyone's fighting for their own small, but in their hearts, a much greater form of freedom." "With such hopes..." "I won't have enough time for revenge or fear, right?" "Shiro doesn't really understand." "I don't understand why he's not out for revenge." "Because if I found the Red Man, I'd..." "What's wrong, Ganta?" "N-Nothing." "Hey, Shiro, is there something you want to do?" "Something you want?" "Eat a lot of snacks!" "You eat them all the time." "And I want that big, sparkly round thing outside!" "The one that spins!" "Sparkly..." "Spins..." "You mean the Ferris wheel?" "You've never ridden one?" "Eh?" "!" "You can ride that?" "!" "Cause it's a ride." "How come you don't know anything about the outside world?" "I wanna ride it!" "I wanna ride it!" "You can't." "It's only for the amusement park visitors." "There's no way prisoners can..." "That's it..." "When we get out, we'll ride it." "Really?" "!" "We'll go together?" "!" "Yup." "Yay!" "You promised!" "You promised!" "You promised!" "You promised!" "Shiro!" "Shiro!" "Go to sleep." "They'll hear you!" "Elementary School 2nd Year Student" "Estimated Time: 20 minutes" "Solve the following sums." "Math Drills m 0 0 l 58 0 l 58 20 I 0 20 m 0 0 l 58 0 l 58 20 I 0 20 m 0 0 l 58 0 l 58 20 I 0 20" "Stop it." "Genkaku, your air guitar's annoying." "I can't finish my homework like this!" "That white girl..." "Bad kids just need to be punished." "You've heard her." "What's the punishment time status?" "98% unchanged." "Well, everything is within my calculations." "Ten years have passed since the mysterious Red Hole phenomenon." "The capital city of Tokyo vanished, resulting in a new capital in Saitama." "A small bit of island and the special ward are the only places still bearing the name "Tokyo."" "In 2017, Japan's first privately owned prison," "Deadman Wonderland, was constructed as part of the Regional Restoration Project." "From the start, the reasoning behind locating a prison where the Red Hole manifested has been questioned." "Now, government officers are arriving to commence their annual inspection of the controversial facility." "The inspection will last one week and will conclude with a memorial ceremony, commemorating those lost in the Red Hole." "How nice." "We'll have to hold a ceremony too." "To "mourn the loss" of Deadman Wonderland." "You're pumped." "Huh, Karako?" "That's 'cause I'm all fueled up!" "Karako, be careful not to overexert yourself." "If I don't now, then when?" "I'm sure the freedom you seek is sufficient motivation." "You curious to know what kinda freedom I'm after?" "Yes, I'm curious." "I'm not telling you." "Hey..." "U-Um..." "I apologize for yesterday." "Um, I'd like to start over..." "I knew it!" "I knew you'd be back." "Glad to have you on board." "Hm?" "You brought her along too?" "Huh?" "Shiro, go back to the room!" "No!" "Shiro's staying with Ganta!" "I'm jealous, dude!" "You're so lucky, Ganta-kun." "You're so lucky!" "I-I told you." "You've got it wrong." "Remember our promise from yesterday?" "If this plan works, we'll be free." "Then we can ride the Ferris wheel together." "That's why you just need to wait 'til then!" "And..." "You have to keep everything secret!" "Okay..." "It's all right." "It's all right." "He just doesn't want the one he likes getting hurt is all." "That's love!" "Does Ganta love Shiro?" "Uh... doesn't he?" "Yay!" "Our goal isn't to break out and go on the run." "The plan's cornerstone is to show the entire world the kind of absurd, inhumane place this prison is." "To accomplish that, we need irrefutable evidence." "This data chip contains proof of Promoter Tamaki's illegal operations..." "Including data from experiments conducted on us Deadmen, as well as other information certain to destroy this place." "In other words, our goal is to leak that out to the world." "All right, let's go over it, one last time." "First, we neutralize the G-block control room." "Then we take the freight elevator." "Five minutes before we move, we pull the emergency alarm." "We'll split into two groups and use the confusion as cover." "Rokuro and I will take the control room." "I want this to work." "Then I can draw out the Red Man and that four-eyed bastard!" "With the scars on our bodies, with freedom in our hearts... we stand united against our common foe to break these chains!" "Alert in IH-33!" "RI-72, NT-7... what the hell?" "Wake up the next shift too!" "This is an emergency!" "Undertakers, we have anomalies!" "We need you down here ASAP!" "You heard him."
