Igarashi, Ganta

五十嵐丸太

The story's main protagonist. Ganta is an ordinary middle school boy who seems harmless but is framed for the slaughter of his entire class, a crime committed by the mysterious Red Man. Sentenced to "death," he is sent to Deadman Wonderland, where he is initially confused and frightened by the prison's brutality. Shortly after arriving, Ganta discovers he can manipulate his blood and is thus deemed a Deadman, a bearer of a Branch of Sin—a power that turns blood into a lethal weapon.
