Monster: The Perfect Edition, Vol. 1
by Naoki Urasawa
Wildly melodramatic and just escalated beyond belief every single time. Its certainly fun and fast paced, but it just stretches well beyond incredulity over and over and over. There is an evil twin thing, people selectively remembering their pasts, framing of murders, seemingly a cult?, multiple people with genius intellects at cross purposes, a strange divergence that helps a mute child come out of her shell, an old blind man appearing out of nowhere with exposition for the mystery, and an unsettling amount of coincidences in service to dramatic tension.
It’s just too much lol entire soap opera seasons in single issues. If you’re into gotcha plotting, I can see why people would be into it. Twist after twist. Nonsensical though they may be, is still fun. But… that’s all it is.
