Yo .
I'm sure if you are manga fan, you should have heard of one called monster. It is about a doctor called Dr. Tenma.
I watched the 1st 2 ep. and it has super super high ratings on animenfo.com. Was wondering if someone could give me a non-spoiler synopsis and if they predict whether I will like it or not.
or maybe just a quick reason why it is rated this high
can someone please reply? i don't want to revive my own threads again and again...
i know itz decent because ppl have claimed to like it and think it to b one of the better ones this season
I'm gonna go ahead and yoink a portion of my review of it from animenfo.com to give you a quick synopsis of my opinions on the series:
It isn't that in-depth of a review, but there have only been four episodes released so far. I was the first one to review it on animenfo, and I also happen to be the one to have given it the lowest score, 7.5. I think its got a great storyline, but not that great overall. I don't know why others have rated it that high.I still don't see why this couldn't be live-action. It seems like a regular medical show spliced with a cop drama or thriller. There aren't any fantasy or sci-fi elements yet, so I don't know why it isn't live-action.
Although the plot twists are interesting, they are much too predictable. It means waiting ten minutes for the cast of characters to catch up with what you know will happen.
perhaps itz something for the adults?
itz wierd because the first 2 episodes could be like a soap.
thanx though for ur help
I guess you could say that. Its primarily plot-based and should get much darker and more suspenseful later in the series. Anyone that enjoys a good mystery should probably check it out.
I'm 22, would you consider that an adult? I do enjoy the anime, just not to the degree that the others who rated it on animenfo did.
no i was thinking 40 45 ish adult
someone who has many years experience in operation room and feels a sense of connection with tenma

u rated it a 7.5? thats not even a B rating.
u prolly rated it that low cuz u were expecting some fantasy,
sci fi thing.
Monster is not that kind of anime.
also, as most of u know, this is not an anime for "kids"
I rated it that low because I didn't think it was that good, not because of my expectations. Only anime that I absolutely adore do I put above an 8.0 rating. As I said before, the plot on Monster is its best point and its way too predictable.
people rate as they wish.Originally posted by: TeNSaikUn

i dont know what u mean by predictable...
what was predictable?
the part being "who" killed the 3 guys?
the watcher (especially in the anime) was suppose to know
who killed them before the end of episode 4...nothing to predict about.
instead, the anime make u wander "WHY he was capable of doing that".
if u think the anime is too predictable, im assuming u already know why
Yohan was shot in the head, why the lil girl was the only surviver, and why
Yohan is out killing people.
unless u read the manga, u would not know why.

so if u see somebody rating Naruto a below average anime, you see nothing wrong with that?
It's an opinion, there's nothing wrong with that at all.Originally posted by: TeNSaikUn

alright, if u put it that way, then theres nothing I can say
edit:but u get what I mean right? if something like that happened,
alot of people would flame him (the guy who thinks Naruto sucks)
this show is getting better and better. i just watched ep 3 it was really good, i knew those 2 little kids were evil. theres never enough evil little children...
I'm betting he was shot in the head by his sister after murdering his parents, but I dont' know that for certain. When I say it has a predictable plot, I'm referring to the individual plot that each episode contains. Within the first five minutes of the episode, you know what will happen at the end.
Its a good anime with some interesting characters and a storyline that I'm curious how it will unfold at the end, but that doesn't mean its great.
I get annoyed when I see people rate Naruto unfairly. That doens't mean low. They can rate it low and as long as they provide an explanation for why they did so, I have no problem.
To put it simply:
Yeah it's good stuff.
I just didnt like how u judged and said how "predictable" the anime was when only few episodes were out.Originally posted by: Poiple Weezard

It might not be a "great" anime to you right now, but keep on watching, and hopefully that'll change.

Poiple Weezard: for all i know you may have read the manga and, thus, know whats going to happen and call it "predictable" and from what ive read in the manga, the story is anything but predictable.
I don't read manga, period. I touched the first couple chapters of Naruto and Tenjou Tenge, but that's it. Never even knew there was a manga for Monster before the other person mentioned reading it.
on average there will be a manga if theres an anime. im not saying that applies always, but its the most common thing.
