Monster comes to a close and it's as ambitious as I expected with a real look into what a monster is and how it is made.

The whole build up has pretty much every major character playing a role. The 3 main really get to shine as Grimmer, Tenma, and Lunge all eventually come to this little down out of nowhere to finally hunt down Johan.

I'm not going to speak much on the story because it'll hit spoilers but I do what to commend the author for pushing the ending he went with. Ambiguous with more "well what now" questions but honestly that was never the point of Monster. Wasn't to answer every question but to put on display what could creature a monster and why they do what they do. Brutal in exaction, the last volume is a trail of bodies to give us some answers but we must decide what the ending truly is.

Monster is a masterpiece. Sure some slow moving parts here or there but when it all came together I couldn't be gladder I read this magnificent series.
