Anyone watch the anime Monster? last modified: Friday, July 22, 2005 (3:50:18 AM) As a big fan of Monster, Im dying to see the next episode.. In fact, I want to see the rest of the series RIGHT FRIGGEN NOW !!
lol, but alas, I think in Japan, its only at ep. 62 (a total of 72 were planned).. and the fansubber have only made it to 58. Anyways, Im interested in other fans opinions and what they think is going to happen. Interpretations of Johan's actions... The whole key to the twisted family and life of Franz Bonaparta and the rose mansion experiment... The weird possible brother that was just introduced a few eps back.. Will Jan Suk ever run into Nina ?!? You think Tenma and Eva the super-bitch will get back together? lol I want to know what you think !! =D Also, for those who havent heard of Monster, you should check it out ! Anime Kraze is doing an awesome job of fansubbing it. Its about a Japanese doctor living in Germany, Dr. Tenma, who saves a boys life instead of the mayor's because he came in first and last time the situation similar arose, he ignored the first patient to operate on the famous opera singer. When the poor Turkish patient died, he felt guilty.. So anyways, the boy turns out to be a killer and Tenma, framed by him, is out to stop him while avoiding the authorities. Its a really good, highly refreshing and unique anime. The theme is a psychological thriller mixed with drama and political commentary. The artwork is unique. While not overly stimulating, it blends anime-ish art with a hint of realism. The designers are also the same who did Giant Robo and Lunar so you can see similarities in the character designs. My biggest beef with the series is that while it maintains a high level of suspense where youre dying to see whats next, it also lags in some places. Like, it introduces a lot of useless one episode characters presumably for filler. I got a little stuck in the 20 to 30-ish episodes, but when I finally got through them, I wasnt disappointed !! Also, Im a little bothered by its stereotyping of Germans and German society (which is oddly somewhat Japanese; imagine that) Also, by that I mean, I find it funny that they all speak perfect German... uhhh, Japanese... all except the Czech himitsukeisatsu (secret police) random expendable agents. Ack, RANT... Anyways... your Monster thoughts?
Wouldn''t normally post in your blog but I saw it on the front page and had to respond. I enjoy Monster as well but your post has confused me. You mention the designers for Monster are the same as those for Giant Robo and Lunar. The character designer for Monster is Shigeru Fujita, he has worked on anime titles such as Master Keaton, Tokyo Godfathers, Perfect Blue and others. The lead character designer for Giant Robo and Lunar is Toshiyuki Kubooka. The secondary character designer for Giant Robo is Akihiko Yamashita, he has worked on anime titles such as Princess Nine, Strange Dawn, Tide-Line Blue and others. Monster resembles the art style of Master Keaton more than anything. Hope this clears up any confusion you had about these series.
really? When soldats first started the fansubs, their site had credited it to the designers of GR. I just believed them.
"Wouldn''t normally post in your blog" Why are you so snooty to me? Ive not done anything to you, but you''re rude as hell to me.
Kaminari, I''m terribly sorry! :( I didn''t mean it that way. I mean, I don''t normally read/post in blogs. I didn''t want to bother you by posting but I enjoy Monster as well and your post was an interesting read. I really didn''t mean to offend you with my comment. I think I worded it wrongly. Your''s is the only other blog I''ve posted in besides D''s. I''m new to RS blogs and I''m not used to the fact that people can respond to them. That''s all I meant. If I had a problem with you, I certainly wouldn''t have posted in your blog at all. I''m sorry for the confusion :( |
