If i did that CmDr_RavEn would chop me in two
can anyone tell me what this show is about and what makes it interesting for you because i heard it's about some doctor and that's all i know, now doctors don't really appeal to me so can anyone give me a good reason to go and watch this show
it really isnt a "Doctors" anime.... it's just that the main character is a doctor that saves a kid that later becomes..... and then it's the story of what doctor does about it....
And that is something we can't have now can we?Originally posted by: Budweineken

THE FOLLOWING MAY BE CONSIDERED SPOILERISH, BUT IS NOT INTENDED AS SUCH. IT IS INTENDED TO HELP DESCRIBE WHAT THE SERIES IS ABOUT.
@ Delux Skillz: I believe there's an answer to your question at the very beginning of this thread. Granted it's not very in depth but it's kinda hard to describe. It is about a Japanese doctor living in Germany who's life is changed after one fateful night in which he decided to take care of a wounded child rather than a politcian. From there his life takes on different twists and turns as he struggles to clear his name, stop a serial killer, and to find out whether or not all human life is equal.
Hope that helps.
ah i see thanx i might just get around to downloading it cuz everywhere I go people keep suggesting me to read the manga
This is a long running series... it will be about 78 episodes... and Im telling you wont be dissapinted... it is that good... it also has some great characters
Heh, go ahead and discuss, just warn me before you do. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
I think I know precisely what I mean
when I say it's a schpadoinkle day
I thought it was only 70 eps? Ah well, more Monster for us then.
And yes you should check it out DeluxSkillz. You'll be happy you did. Though be warned it's more psychological/suspense than anything else.
YAY! CmDr_RavEn gave the go ahead to discuss. So...discuss before I get verklempt.
For those interested episode 19 is out by anime-kraze...
it is an awesome episode so get it if you want
** spoilers to ep 19 **
Another excellent ep of Monster. I'm glad they got back to Tenma. Not that I don't like Nina, but Tenma is definately my favorite character from the show. More serial-killer creepiness in this ep. It's wierd how Johann was able to manipulate that guy to murder Johann's foster-mother. How DID he now about his past? This may be the first real supernatural element of the storyline. Or there could be a reasonable explantation. The story may never have any fantasy elements, which would be OK be me.
I thought the psychiatrist was another excellent bit character, like the assasin from the last ep. The characters in Monster have a lot of depth, even when they are only briefly in the story. Just before Tenma escaped on the bus he said he was cheating on the test too... Do you think he was lying about cheating himself just because he knew how much that incident was eating at the guy who betrayed and then helped him?
Spoilers here also....
Indeed a very good episode... Every character that is portrayed in the series are splendid... I dont know how I feel about Johann having some sort of supernatural powers... I hope it all comes down to him being very good at manipulating people, and be one of those people that by just looking at you or watching you act for a while can suddenly tell your whole history.... But whatever happens I'm OK with it....
What I really want to see is another episode that involves the crazy detective, that is now with Tenma's ex-fiancee
And I dont think he was lying about cheating... I think that explains why Tenma never approached him, he thought the psychiatrist caught him cheating...
Episode 20 is out by a-kraze for those interested
All I know about Monster is this: there are NO supernatural elements within the story. Everything has an explanation, including Johann. At least in the manga, I can't say for sure about the anime. And it's always good to pay attention to secondary characters cause you just never know where/when/if they show up again. *wink* That's all I know. Really it is, other than I need to go to bed because I have to work in the morning.
Of course as my word is not law feel free to ignore me. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Episode 20 was quite a diasppointment for me. It didn't seem to add anything to the main story.
Monster remains one of my two favorite ongoing series (fma being the other)
just want to know? what so special about monster series anyway? i saw the first 2 episodes and found it quite confusing?
if you scroll up a little bit you'll find the answer
Spoilers for episode 20....
The episode didnt dissapoint me on the least.... i enjoyed it... you never know if they actually have a connection, especially with the son who is on prison... he might have been manipulated by Johan...
Episode 21 is out by Soldats for those interested
*** spoilers to ep 21 ***
2 eps of Monster, nice. They were interesting to watch back to back, very different tones, with the first kind of a laid back road trip with a bitersweet end, the second with more tension and a tragic end. Some might say that the ex-cop got what was coming to him, but I think like the rest of the charaters in the series, he was only human. Weak, but not totally evil...
I wonder who it was that set up the ex-cop as a trap for Nina? It looks like a new faction. Are they after Johan too? Killing his sister is NOT a way to impress him. And they are going after Tenma... And we get the inspector back for the next ep! I really like this character, so I will be looking forward to it.
Has anyone else noticed that the ending has changed? Disturbing... I wonder what it means.
Oh, and NO SPOILERS PLEASE. If I think that there might be a supernatural element then I want to be surprised later when there is a rational explanation. If you have read the manga KEEP QUIET. Thank you.
***Spoilers up to 21***
Episode 21 was awesome... one of my favorites... what i really wanted to know was if Nina was able to kill the other guy... because that would have made her first kill (i think)...
I guess that the people that want Anna and Tenma dead are the people that think that they are disturbing their plans for Johan... I'm pretty sure that they are people that support Johan... I guess they don't know the what kind of monster Johan is carrying because they will be dead once Johan finds out they tried to kill Anna
And yes the inspector is back.... my wish has been granted...
My theory of what is happening in the series is this... this is all a master plot to manipulate Johan and Anna... making killers of both of them... something along those lines
I don't know, most of the people after Johan seem to underestimate Anna, just using her as a tool to get to her brother. They seem to forget that the two are twins...
