Review of Monster
Well, I will make a review of this anime. The storyline is very catchy, interesting and consistent. The atmosphere was very well done. The script was very coherent. The moral of the storyline (forgiveness) was very well handled. However, the story in this show is not perfect. The problem was solved in 74 episodes whil it could be solved in much less episodes. And that is not good! Too much time was wasted by giving minor characters a day in the limelight by demoting temporarily our Japanese hero and disconnecting of the storyline. The character designs were very realistic. The backgrounds and the scenery are prettygood. The animation is not perfect but is very good.
The soundtrack was very appropiate for the situations. It's not that awesome, but it is still worthy.
The characters are the best thing in Monster. The characters were very likeable, memorable, believable and interesting. Kenzo Tenma is a very good protagonist, because he is well balanced in his strengths and flaws, is relatable and is good without being a dumbass or a purity sue. Johan Liebert is a good villain, although a bit perfect, but his almost perfect condition makes him intimidating. The other characters were also good. Eva Heinemann (at first) and Roberto are irritant, but that doesn't harm the story.
In spite of the ending fatigue, the chapters are enjoyable because of the characters and the well handled emotional moments (funny, sad, scary).
Monster is a very good anime. It is very enjoyable and memorable.
