Nowadays, the popularization of anime has made it clear to everyone that within this type of Japanese animation, we can find all kinds of stories, themes, and approaches that distance the idea that they are series for children. There is something for everyone. However, it is natural for older people to think that cartoons are for children when they see animated shows. But it is never too late to correct this misconception, or at least that’s what the protagonist of this story must have thought when, in the middle of a family conversation, he decided that his grandfather had to watch Monster, one of the most highly rated anime series in history.
A series of intrigue and murders
User aMildFailure caught attention with his post on Reddit. He mentioned that his grandfather had been very dismissive of animation during a family chat. “Animation is for kids,” the 87-year-old man reportedly said.
“I recommended Monster and bought him the whole series. To my surprise, he watched it and loved it.” Happy ending. And it’s not surprising, considering that Monster is one of the most popular and highly rated anime series. Some even consider it a masterpiece on the level of Death Note.
In Monster, we follow a doctor who decides to operate on a small child instead of a renowned politician. This decision costs him his job and his career, but he never imagined that the child would grow up to be an adult “monster.” Johan Liebheart is a serial killer, and when Dr. Kenzo Tenma finds out, he decides to go after him to absolve his guilt.
Monster stands out for the level of intrigue it maintains from the very beginning, the deep dive into the characters’ psyche, and, above all, for how unpredictable it can be. Thankfully, it is available on Netflix, so if there is still someone who hasn’t seen it, they can easily enjoy it.
