Deadman Wonderland - The Prison
The titular Deadman Wonderland is Japan's only publicly operatived prison, built right after the Great Tokyo Earthquake atop the ruined city to gather prisoners from all of Japan and, especially, raise money for the revival of the destroyed metropolis. To the public and the tourists that visit it daily, Deadman Wonderland is a massive theme park-like facility run by the prison population. Unbeknowst to the general population, most of the prison's attractions involve cruel games of survival where many inmates lose their lives or are maimed while struggling to stay alive for the enjoyment of an oblivious public. The prison also runs a secret gladiator-like game called the Carnival Corpse, where wealthy anonymous donors pay to watch deathmatches between the prison's 'Deadmen'. Deadmen who are defeated yet survive the game, have a part of their anatomy surgically removed for scientific research.

To keep prisoners at bay in case of a riot, the prisoners are strapped with special collars which acts as monitors for their position and life conditions and to stun them. Those on death row however, are constantly administered poison through their collars: should an inmate not consume a special candy-like antidote every three days, provided to them at the cost of a large sum of Cast Points, he/she would die almost immediately. The prison's guard staff is also granted autonomy over how to punish the prisoners, which often results in bloodshed.

While the threat of violent and death is constant at the prison, most prisoners enjoy a great deal of liberty inside Deadman Wonderland. Utilizing Cast Points, the prison's unique form of currency, prisoners can purchase a wide variety of items, from ordinary lunches, to luxury furniture for their rooms. Those on Death Row also use Cast Points to purchase their life-saving candies.

Despite it's identity as a prison and theme park, Deadman Wonderland houses a much darker secret. Hidden away from the eyes of tourists and the general prison population is a massive underground facility known as 'Level G'. Here the prison keeps their 'Deadmen' secluded, and where the Carnival Corpse arena is located. Level G also houses numerous laboratories and rooms where human experimentation is performed and where scientists are attempting to harness the powers of the 'Deadmen' for monetary and political gain.

Carnival Corpse
The show known as Carnival Corpse is a secretive, extremely lucrative form of entertainment the prison offers only to a restricted group of individuals. These individuals are mainly anonymous people who pay large sums of money to watch head-to-head fights between 'Deadmen', who are forced to compete against each other, often to the death. The winner is awarded a large amount of Cast Points, life-saving candies and other prizes. The loser, should they survive the match, is sent to the labs where a part of their anatomy (ie. eye, kidney, lung, etc) is removed for further research. In a cruel twist, the loser spins a macabre slot-machine to determine which part of their body will be removed.
