  • Hell’s Paradise: Flowers and Bloodshed

    Hell’s Paradise: Flowers and Bloodshed

    Could MAPPA chill for like, one season? Seriously, those poor animators need a break. Hell’s Paradise was a wild ride. Gruesome horror, violent action, complex characters, and twists at every turn. Was it always perfect? Not quite. But it was definitely a surprise!
