Monster

[Demon_Skeith]

Finished yet another anime and this time I got down watching the monster series via syfy channel. I found the anime to be very good and well animated. The story is top notch and will still leave you with a lot of questions at the end of it. Below is a description from wiki:

The series follows Dr. Kenzō Tenma (天馬 賢三, Tenma Kenzō?) as he pursues a young psychopath/sociopath named Johann, whose life Tenma once saved. The story rapidly progresses through a number of locations: it starts in Düsseldorf, Germany, passes through Berlin, Frankfurt, Munich, Wiesbaden, cities in the Czech Republic such as Prague, and other cities and villages.

Both the anime and the manga begin with a passage from The Revelation of St. John the Divine, Chapter 13: Verses 1 & 4

And I saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads, the names of blasphemy. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, "Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him?"

The quote is often interpreted as the coming of the Antichrist. This quote is used because of the many parallels and comparisons between one of the main characters of Monster (Johan) and two candidates of the Antichrist as predicted by Nostradamus.

Here is a trailer.

the anime is worth watching if you really like storylines and plot twists. There is supposedly a live action movie in the works by hollywood but it's fate and status is currently unknown. This anime has 74 episodes so it will take some time to watch.
