These books are so fast to read through and I absolutely love that! I am still rooting for Tenma and all he is trying to juggle. I also love the mini cliffhanger at the end that has made me thinking what is to come next!

I absolutely love this series, the characters and story are so well written and interesting and the art is absolutely gorgeous. I highly recommend!

Another step in Dr. Tenma's journey to find and stop the human monster, Johan. This one introduces a wide range of characters, some wonderful and others decidedly villainous. I love how each new page explores the theme of "monster", how we associate Johan as the monster due to his serial killer ways, but there are people who have experimented on children, are going to burn down a neighborhood in pursuit of racial superiority, others who will stop at nothing to crush those they feel slighted by, and so much more. 

I love the artwork and the story, and though I've never been able to finish the anime due to outside circumstances (someday), I'm making my way through the manga so I can finally get closure on one of my favorite series of all times.

Although this book is massive and dense, plot-wise, I feel we haven't advanced that much in the main plot.

Instead, what we have is several subplots and a lot of character introduction and development.

Regardless, it was a pleasure to read.
